Chapter 31
Time To Go
Rays pov
Alice, can you come here please?
The nurse stands and comes over to Ray, Can I help you.
No, I just wanted something to eat. Alice can get it for me but thank you for your concern. The nurse looks at her with a smile and sits down.
Yes, Luna. What can I do for you?
I'd like to get some breakfast if you don't mind. Just some toast and some juice please.
You should eat more than that.
I don't think I have room for more than that Alice. The pups are taking up all the space.
I know, Luna. You have less than a week to go. The pains have stopped in your back so it looks like everything will be ok. Alice has been helping to keep Ray in a good mood.
As a nurse I can tell you, you are going to need to eat to keep up your strength.
I understand what you are saying. Believe me I want to do it, Nurse Jones, but if I eat, I will get sick. So, toast is all I want.
I cant make you eat, I can only recommend what you should do. Would you be ok if I went and got some breakfast.
Yeah, that would be fine. You go have breakfast? I will talk to you when you get back. Alice walks out with the nurse.
Mariah, how are the pups?
The pups are strong. They're doing well.
It's getting time I can feel it.
Yes, it's getting close. Probably in less time than they think.
They're running out of room in there. I don't think I can stretch anymore without breaking apart. Mariah is laughing at her. What's so funny? It's me carrying them! You just get to sit there and take the ride.
Youre right. I have a surprise for you. She is now teasing Ray.
Stop teasing me I am in no mood. What is the surprise?
You will find out when they're born and then you will have a second surprise five days after they're here. Stop worrying everything is going to be fine.
You have never been wrong, so I will trust you. I hate when you talk in riddle that drives me absolutely crazy.
Mariah makes a purring sound, I know. Ray shakes her head and lays there fiddling with the TV remote to see what show she wants to watch. She finally decides on watching Murder She Wrote, because she loves mysteries.
Breakfast is ready do you want help sitting up more?
Alice, I just wanted toast and some juice. Not all that. She sighs, I could use your help.
Alice helps her sit up, You need more than toast and juice. It is only a couple of eggs and three pieces of bacon. Come on, try to eat all of it. You need to eat.
I will try but don't get hopeful every time I eat my stomach hurts.
It'll be over soon, Luna. You'll be happy when you have the pups in your arms.
I keep looking at the pictures on the wall dreaming about the day I get to hold them. I know that will be the happiest day of my life. Isnt the doctor coming today?
Yes, he'll be here in about an hour and a half.
Ok. Thank you, Alice. She starts to play with her food.
