Mid October 5:35 AM.
Harry awoke to some sudden movement in the dark.
He turned on the lamp beside the bed and looked toward Vinny. His dearest wife wasn't moving...
It was the babies...
He could see them moving around in Vinny's belly going in and out.
Dr. Karman said that she would be expecting in about 10 to 15 days.
She looked like she was holding a beach ball.
He placed his hand on her belly and gently glided it across the bulge.
Vinny opened her eyes slowly.
She said,"Is anything wrong Harry?"
Harry kissed her belly and then He said,"Nothing's wrong. I was watching our children play."
Vinny smiled and said,"I'm so happy that I could give you children."
Harry moved up, to her face her. Looking into her sky blue eyes,he said,"I'm so happy just to love you."
Then he gently kissed his dear Vinny. He held her close and felt the two moving around.
He then sang to her."You are my special angel... sent from up above...
The lord smiled down on me and sent an angel to love.
You are my special angel... Straight from paradise.
I know you're an angel... cause heaven is in your eyes!
A smile from your lips brings the summer sunshine!
The tears from your eyes bring the rain...
I feel your touch and warm embrace.. and I'm in heaven again!
You are my special angel.. for eternity!
Since heaven sent down an angel; here to watch over me!
Here to watch over me! "
He reached over, turned off the lamp, and returned to her loving embrace..
Down in the living room...
6:15 AM
Dave stirred from his sleep.
He had fallen asleep on the sofa... He tried to get up, but was held down fast.
Turning to his side, he saw why he couldn't move. Christine was sleeping next to him..
Dave now remembers what happened. Both of them were looking at his family albums.
First she looked at his album. She marveled at the picture of him playing a guitar.
He remembers her saying,"What a heart breaker!"
She learned that he came from a poor but honest farm family.
He earned a music scholarship and struggled through college.
Some of his friends came from rich families or royalty.
Then he told her of one rich girl, so determined to marry him.
She kept pressuring him to give up music and get a job at her father's factory.
Christine laughed after Dave told her of how baby Alvin accidentally launched a tomato at her face.
As the night went on he told her about the time he almost got married.. To a mother of three boys!
Christine had looked a little worried..
But Dave explained that he and his intended bride had second thoughts about joining two groups of: three like personalities!
Dave looked at Christine's peaceful face.
It didn't mean she didn't have a sneaky side.
He remembers coming back from the kitchen with hot spiced cider. She sat there looking at him with questioning eyes.
She said,"Not seeing other women eh?.. Who's this!"
He went to look in the album, to see what she was talking about.
When he looked she started to laugh.
She had snuck in a photo of them kissing at Harry's wedding.
Wanda had taken the photos and made some copies for him.
Dave laughed and gave Christine her cider.
After the drinks the two started doing the same thing; that was in the picture.
That is all Dave remembers.
He didn't remember the pillows or blankets.
"Everything fine Dave?", said a voice.
He turned to see Alvin; who said,"I couldn't sleep last night. So I went to get a drink from the kitchen.
I saw that the light was on. That's when I saw the both of you sleeping.
So I thought that both of you needed to be comfortable.."
Dave smiled and said,"Thank you Alvin."
As his son left. He remembers what he said about him marrying Christine.
Looking at her he thought,"I can get used to waking up to this pretty face next me.."
