Epilogue
Martha looked down at the tiny newborn infant that she held in her arms. "Oh my, she is so beautiful." Martha looked over at her parent's who were smiling happily back at her.
The infant had finished her first meal and now cut loose with a huge yawn that threatened to crack her face in half. Then she proceeded to emit a loud burp and spit up on Martha's shoulder.
Lois chuckled at the look on Martha's face. "Oh, she definitely reminds me of you at the age."
Martha held the infant out away from herself as Lois swapped out the dirty cloth for a clean one. She gave the infant a look that was part annoyance and part amused indulgence. "Keep that up kid and I might just give you back."
She placed the baby back on her shoulder and soon got one more tiny and un-messy burp. She smiled at the now drowsy infant. "Well I think it's time to give you back to your mother." She reluctantly handed the baby back to her brother's wife then looked wistfully at the little family. It had been six months since the pheromone incident and as she gazed at her brother's family, she thought about her decision that day and wondered how things might have been different if she had made a different decision. She looked down at her growing belly. There was no doubt that it was the direct result of those three pheromone-fueled days.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the hospital room door as it burst open and an out of breath George hurried into the hospital room. "Sorry I'm late. I got a bit bogged down by some last-minute errands at 'The Planet'."
Martha smiled looking down at her wedding ring as George put his arms around her from behind. No doubt about it. The first couple of months of their marriage had been extremely chaotic and filled with probing questions from friends and a fair share of hysterics from George's family. She felt his hands gently caress her belly and leaned back into him with a contented sigh. In the end, it had all been worth it and she would never regret her decision to give their marriage a chance.
