After a month...

Kim lets out a squeal of joy. Standing on the toilet lid, with the positive pregnancy test in both hands. Even a few small tears are allowed to emerge from her dark eyes.

After only one month, the result of her and Mick's love shows. So fast. She didn't think it would be that easy. But it seems that it came true. She is pregnant again. The second time. Her and Mick's second baby.

She suspected that she would be pregnant again, as she had the same symptoms she had when she was pregnant with Jodie. With nausea and dizziness and most importantly, her period was late.

The moment of ecstasy is interrupted by a knock at the door.

"Mommy! Get out!" It's her daughter's voice.

"One moment sweetie," Kim gets up and flushes water.

She leaves the test on the sink and washes her hands as speedily as possible because, the knocking on the door gets louder, Jodie having less and less patience.

Kim, quickly looks in the mirror and wipes the tears from her eyes.

"Done honey," Kim opens the door. "What is it?" Mommy only went to the bathroom for a few minutes.

"Mommy! I want play!" Jodie shouts and her small, crystalline eyes stop high up, on the sink, where the pregnancy test is placed.

In a fraction of a second, without Kim having the chance to react to the speed of a two-year-old toddler, Jodie runs and grabs the pregnancy test, looking at it curiously.

"Mommy? What this?"

"Well..." Kim intercepts a plan through her daughter's slyness.

An idea to tell Mick that she is pregnant again.

After a few hours...

Kim is sneaking glances under the window shutters. She has no more patience. She just wants to to break the news to Mick.

But in the end, his car pulls into the yard.

Smiling widely, she prepares for everything. She takes Jodie in her arms, the little girl has the pregnancy test in her hand, which is wrapped in a red ribbon.

"Now you're going to daddy," Kim whispers.

As the door is open, Jodie rushes towards her father with her hands in the air, the pregnancy test being noticeable. But Mick didn't notice it at first. Likely because he is very excited to see his daughter, whom he takes in his arms and kisses her on the forehead.

"Daddy!" The little girl shouts and smiles widely.

"Hey, sweetie. How was your day?" His gaze moves to Kim, who is standing further away from them, smiling.

Mick has a hunch that something is going on, just by looking at Kim. Her glassy eyes seem so enigmatic. As if she is up to something. He notices his wife looking intently at Jodie.

Only now is the moment when he sees what Jodie has in her hand. At first he doesn't know how to react, shocked by such a spontaneous gesture. Not expecting it after a long day of work. He sees that there are two lines on that test and instantly smiles, understanding what it means.

"What do you have there?" Mick asks his daughter.

Jodie hands him the test too, and he lays her down.

Looking down at the test and then at Kim, who is glowing with joy, just like him, he takes her towards her and embraces her.

"Is it really true?" She hears him whispering.

"Yes," the brunette nods. "It seems that we will be parents once again. Isn't that wonderful? Another baby alien. As we wanted."

"Yes, that's right," Mick is now looking into her watery eyes, brushing her cheeks.

"I hope that this time it will be a boy," admits Kim.

"Whatever it is, this baby will be a miracle. Just as Jodie was, and is," Mick kisses her briefly on the lips. "How did Jodie react?" He asks her again full of curiosity. "Was she excited to know she is going to be a big sister?

"She..." Kim smiles and both her and her husband's eyes fall on Jodie who is clinging to both of their legs, wanting more and more attention. "I don't know how well she understood," Kim smiles deeply. "But she seemed happy. So happy that she helped me tell you the news."

"Hey, Jodie," Mick leans down and takes the little girl in his arms. "What would you like to have? A sister or a brother?"

The little girl shrugs her shoulders, and shakes her head with a gesture so lovable and funny at the same time, that her parents laugh right away.

"I want baby!" Jodie shouts, clapping her little hands, looking more and more excited.

"And you'll have one, my dear," her mother tells her. "Just wait. In a short time, you will be the big sister."

"Yay!" The little girl claps her hands again, with more energy and Mick and Kim laugh lightly.
