Triplet trouble

Rebecca's POV:

It's finally time to see what my next baby is going to be. I went into the nurse's station and saw that Marie was also there with Marly, Nina and Benjamin who were in strollers.

"Hey." I smiled and waved.

"Hey Rebecca." Marie smiled sadly.

"Come this way." The robotic nurse ordered me. I nodded and followed it to the bed and got up on the bed.

The robotic nurse began to scan me and then stopped.

"One...two...three." It muttered.

"Excuse me?" I looked confused.

"Triplets...all girls. Congratulations." The robotic nurse said and then left the room.

My heart beat quickened and I gasped for air. I'm having triplets?!

I heard Marie shriek in the other room and came running to her.

"What's wrong Marie?" I asked.

"The nurse says...it can already tell...in having t-t-t-triplets." Marie stuttered with tears streaming down her face.

"What? I'm having triplets!" I exclaimed fearfully.

"You, me and Laurie? That's too coincidental!" Marie replied.

"Marie think...was there anything special about the blue medicine Laurie gave you?" I asked.

"Um...it had three ice cubes in it but that's it..." Marie shrugged.

"Three ice cubes! There were three in the drink she gave me! And there were three in the one I gave her!" I gasped as I realized what had happened.

"The three ice cubes changed the medicine somehow so that we'd have triplets." Marie gasped.

"Wait really?" Maddie suddenly said from behind us.

"Maddie? How long have you been standing there?" I looked nervous.

"Long enough to know how to get triplets." Maddie grinned and then left the station.

"Great..." Marie groaned. She knew just as well as me that Maddie was addicted to the medicine.

"We're definitely going to need some help with care giving..." I sighed and took out a small piece of paper with Edd's number on it. We were going to need a babysitter...a lot of them...
