MASEGO
AT THE HOSPITAL
THE DOCTOR HAD FINISHED EXAMINING ME AND WALKED OUT
ME: (SIGH)
I RUB MY STOMACH
ME: HI LITTLE BABY, THAT'S IF YOU'RE STILL THERE. (VOICE CRACKING) YOUR DADDY DOESN'T WANT TO CHANGE FOR ME. HE KEEPS DOING THINGS THAT HURT MOMMY AND I HATE IT SO MUCH. (CRIES) BUT I JUST CANT SHAKE THE FACT THAT MOAGI CAME BACK AND NOW ALL THESE THINGS HAPPEN. ALWAYS, WHEN THE TWINS COME BACK, SOMETHING HAS TO HAPPEN..
DOOR OPENS
THE DOCTOR WALKS IN AND I WIPE MY TEARS
DR: OH SWEETIE, DON'T CRY. YOUR BABY IS VERY MUCH ALIVE
I BREAK INTO TEARS
DR: AWW
SHE COMES TO ME AND HUGS ME
DR: A PERFECT LITTLE BABY. 3 MONTHS. NO COMPLICATIONS. JUST MAINTAIN YOUR STRESS LEVELS AND YOU WILL BE FINE. WHATS FUNNY IS, THE LITTLR NGWANA WAS HIDING. THIS WAS GOING TO BE A CRYPTIC PREGNANCY IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE 2
I FREEZE
ME: EXCUSE ME
DR: THE SONA SHOWED 1 BABY WHICH MAKES SENSE TO WHY THE TESTS WERE POSITIVE, BUT THE OTHER ONE WAS HIDING. IF IT WASN'T FOR MY NURSE POINTING IT OUT, YOU WERE GONNA FIND OUT ON THE DAY OF YOUR DELIVERY
ME: WOW (CHUCKLES) DOUBLE HOMOCIDE
DR: (GIGGLES) YES. DO YOUR HAVE TWINS IN YOUR FAMILY ?
ME: YES, MY BIG BROTHERS ARE TWINS AND THE FATHER IS A TRIPLET
DR: WHOAH (LAUGHS) IVE NEVER HEARD SUCH AN INSANE FAMILY TREE BEFORE
ME: (SMILES) TELL ME ABOUT IT.
DR: I KNOW, BUT GIRL. WHATEVER IT TAKES, PLEASE LOOK AFTER YOUR BABIES. PUT THEM FIRST. IVE HAD CASES OF MOTHERS PREGNANT WITH TWINS OR MORE LOOSING 1 DUE TO STRESS
ME: (NODS) I WILL.
DR: AND THANK YOU ON THEIR BEHALF FOR RUNNING OVER HERE WHEN YOU BLED.
ME: (NODS) THANK YOU
SHE GIVES ME MY MEDICINE AND VITAMINS AND I LEAVE.
