1997 - Ontario, Canada

Fifteen year old Roisin had told Siobhan just the day before that she was pregnant. However Sarah and Felix still didn't know. She wanted to wait to tell them, because she wanted to tell them at the same time and Felix is a bit of blabber mouth. Well, actually it's more like he's incapable of keeping a secret or lying to Siobhan. That was another reason she waited so long. She didn't want to tell her siblings before she told Siobhan in case one of them, namely Felix, accidentally uttered it to Siobhan.

Roisin had invited Sarah and Felix into her room which was something she seldom did. Because of this, Felix and Sarah both knew that their older sister had big news to tell them.

"What's going on, Rosie?" Sarah asked, "Is it about why you've been so moody the past few months?"

"And why you're getting fat?" Felix added bluntly

Sarah hit the boy, "Felix! That's not nice."

Roisin laughed slightly, "No, Sare. It's okay. What I have to say is actually about those two things." She paused and took a breath, "I...I'm pregnant. I'm five months along."

"What?!" Sarah exclaimed, "Does Mum know?"

"Yeah. I told her yesterday." Roisin replied

Felix furrowed his eyebrows, "What's pregnant mean?"

"It means that I'm going to have a baby in four months. You're going to be an uncle." Roisin explained as she touched her belly, "There's a baby growing in my stomach."

"How'd the baby get there?" Felix wondered

Roisin took a deep breath, "Well, um...why don't you ask Mummy." Felix was nine, but he still called Siobhan 'Mummy'.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Sarah inquired

Roisin smiled, "A boy."

"Who's the baby's father?" Sarah questioned, "Is it that guy...um Cyrus?"

"Cyril." Roisin corrected, "No, he's not the father." She bit her lip, "Actually I don't know."

Sarah thought for a moment, "Someone from one of the parties you went to?"

Roisin nodded, "Yeah most likely."

"Well I'm happy for you, Rosie. I can't wait to be an auntie."

Roisin smiled, "Thanks, Sare."
