Silas Montgomery

I held Evie's hand as we waited on the doctor.

Evie - are you nervous?

Silas - yeah.

Evie - I may want a epidural when the time comes to have the baby.

Silas - you know most epidural contain fentanyl , it's only a little bit but are you comfortable -

Evie - no. I'll just substitute that for something else and make sure the doctors know.

Silas - you've been doing good so far babe

Evie - how does Sy'Rai feel about the baby?

Silas - I don't know. I told her and she seemed indifferent at the time.

Evie - you're basically her father. Is she the reason you want a daughter.

Silas - yeah. I've had to learn a lot by just doing for her. I learned to do her hair and everything.

............

I smiled as I saw the baby on the screen.

Nurse - you wanna hear the heartbeat

Evie - yes

My eyes watered as I heard the baby's heartbeat.

Evie squeezed my hand

Nurse - baby's heart beat is really strong

Evie smiled at me.

The nurse handed me some tissue.

Nurse - first time dad?

Silas - you can tell.

Nurse - I get it though. I get emotional with my patients too. If you want we can put it in a little teddy bear that way you can always hear their heart beat.

Silas - okay . I want the bear.

Geneviève Rinaldi

I looked at Silas as he sat the bear on the bed.

Evie - I don't know if you're aware but the bear is for me too.

Silas - this mine. You got the real thing inside you.

Evie - that bear is going in the baby's room.

Silas - no.

The door bell rang . I went to the door to see Scott and Khalil. I hugged Khalil.

Evie - booger

Khalil - hey Peanut

He hugged me back.

Scott - where's Si?

Evie - obsessing over the ultrasound heartbeat. We had it put in a teddy bear and it's all he's been listening to in the last 30 minutes.

Khalil - that's weird

Evie - not too much on him though. Watch it.

Scott - alright Evie. You coming home tonight right?

Evie - unfortunately.

Scott - alright. Khalil I'll just take your stuff to our house

Khalil - alright

He left.
