Jean woke up around 9:30 am. Scott had just come back in the room to check on her. He sat down next to her while she leaned up against the mahogany head board.
"I had a dream", she said, smiling.
"About what", he asked.
"I'll tell you if and when it happens", she replied with a giggle.
The thought of what Jean's dream could have been about, kept running through Scott's head. He knew that because Jean was giddy about what she saw so it didn't make him worry, but he was irked by the fact that Jean was keeping this from him.
Jean had a scheduled ultrasound that day around 1:00 pm. The whole ride there, she was shaking in the passenger seat of her and Scott's black Mazda CS6. Running through her head was would her premonition come true and was it because of the baby?
They got to the doctor's office and walked up the two flights of stairs to the correct waiting room. The 10 minute wait felt like hours for Jean. When the nurse called her name, Jean twitched, she was very on edge. She and Scott were walked to room 306, and Jean climbed onto the examining table. A different nurse walked into the room and asked Jean to lie down on the table and lift her shirt over her stomach.
Jean complied and then turned to Scott, taking his hand. The nurse spread the cold gel on Jean's lower abdomen, and she shivered. The nurse started to examine the baby. The nurse looked questioningly at the screen. This worried Scott, but Jean knew exactly what was going on. Jean was right; they were having a little girl. But they were also going to have a boy too.
"It's twins", the nurse said, "the doctor must have missed that."
*"Is that what you saw in your dream?" Scott asked Jean telepathically.*
Jean just nodded.
