It had been 2 weeks since Rose had sent the letter to Paula about Caitlin. Rose still had not heard from Paula. This was worrying Rose. She was thinking that maybe Caitlin found the letter and had killed Paula. But Rose immediately tried to keep that thought out of her head. Jack walked outside and checked the mail. It was Christmas Eve of 1915 and it was snowing outside. As Jack went outside to check the mail Rose lied down by the fireplace. Jack walked back into the house a few minutes later shaking from the bitter cold.
"Rose, we got a letter from Paula" Jack said.
"Well open it!"
"Dear Rose and Jack, Thank you for warning us about Caitlin. It all makes since now. About 2 days before we received your letter Andy died. She must have poisoned him. The doctor said that it was probably a heart attack. I did not think that it could have been a heart attack. Andy was very young and he was strong and healthy. But why would she have killed Andy? Unless Caitlin found another man I just can't understand why she would have killed Andy. Andy was a very nice and handsome man. I have to admit I even had a bit of a crush on him. That is enough about Andy and Caitlin I want to know how you are doing. Are you wanting a boy or a girl. When are you expected to have the baby…" Rose stopped reading right there, her water had broke.
"JACK!" Rose screamed.
Jack rushed into the room where Rose was at and asked what was wrong.
"Jack my water broke."
Jack panicking rushed to the closet to get Roses bag with all of her clothes in it. He rushed out the door forgetting all about Rose. He got in the car and started driving off. It took Jack about 20 seconds to realize that Rose was not with him. He quickly turned the car around and went back to the house. Rose was standing out on the front porch waiting on Jack. She was laughing so hard she could not breathe. Jack rushed up onto the porch and helped Rose get out to the car. Jack rushed Rose to the nearest hospital which was Memorial hospital on Willow street. Jack and Rose walked into the hospital.
"I'm having a baby." Jack said out of breathe.
"Sir do you mean she is having a baby?" The nurse at the desk asked Jack,
"Of course that's what I mean." Jack replied.
The nurse quickly got a wheel chair for Rose to sit down in. The nurse got all of the information that she needed and wheeled Rose back into a room. Jack asked if he could come and the nurse told him that he was not allowed back there. Jack walked down the hall and found a map of the hospital. He looked for the cafeteria. He was getting very hungry but then decided he was to happy to eat. Jack walked back out to the waiting room and took a seat. He then heard some screams and wondered what they were doing to someone to make them scream like that. Jack sat there for about 6 hours sweating and nervous. His leg was shaking. He thought about what all he and his son or daughter would do together. Shortly after, a nurse came out and told Jack to come with her. Jack followed the nurse and she took him to a window. Jack could see about 15 babies.
"Which is my baby?" Jack asked.
"Baby? Mr. Dawson"
"Yes my baby" Jack replied.
"That one right there in the pink" The nurse said.
"A girl, I got a little girl!" Jack said
"Oh and the one in the blue" The nurse said to Jack while smiling.
"Twins! I got a boy and a girl!" Jack jumped up screaming
"Yes Mr. Dawson you got twins." Replied the nurse.
