Chapter 28 Our Twin Daughters

I'm currently in my second trimester. We are all excited I even told Sakine however she's planning on getting married to Möiük in two years for their wedding. She's grown up so much. I truly can't believe that she's already 18.

Today we are going to get to know the gender of the child. However, I'm expecting twins and my grandmother is excited. Mike and I walked inside of the pregnancy clinic, my tension was building up however I felt that I was going to have female twins considering my stomach felt lighter than when Meito was born.

"Mr and Mrs. Enikas." a nurse said.

Mike and I got up but Mike gripped my hand and helped me up. We both followed the nurse to our room. Our doctor greeted us and she had me change. I get on the ice cold bed and I lay down as she lifted up the flap to my gown. She begins to put the warm gel on my growing abdomen.

"So would you like to know the gender of your child?" Dr. Advodana asked.

"We would like to know." Mike says.

She begins to point to the large monitor and shows that we are having identical twin daughters. We both didn't have a name for our daughters just yet. But we couldn't wait to tell Meito that he's going to have two sisters.

Once we finished we left the clinic. Our daughters were going to be born on March 3rd the day of our anniversary. I knew from the start we might twin daughters. Mike decided that we should come up with names for our daughters.

"So Mike what should we name our daughters? I asked in inquisitive.

"Let's start with the oldest." Mike tells me.

"Jessica?"

"Nicole?"

"Blaze?"

"Kara?"

"Kara sounds like a nice name Mike."

"Now we should name the youngest daughter." Mike tells me.

"How about Anna?"

"Anna and Kara? It has a nice ring to it." Mike says.

"We should tell our parents."

"We need to, let's call them right now." Mike says getting our wireless phone and gives it to me.

"Hello?" mom asked.

"Mom it's Meiko, we just found the gender of our child want to guess? Mike is sitting next to me"

"Is it twin sons?" mom asked.

"No its identical twin girls." I say

"They're due on our anniversary." Mike tells her.

"So Sakine isn't going to be the only female in our immediate family." dad says.

"No because the genders are evenly divided. Unless Michela ends up having opposite sex twins."

"Look I hear that Sakine is getting married in two years." mom tells us.

"How old is she by the way?" dad asked us.

"She 18, and we're both 43 now. We all share a birthday. Our daughters are going to be born on our anniversary. Then Meito was born on Easter." Mike says.

"That's real great that you two have been married for 22 years it must be an accomplishment for you both." dad says.

We then end the phone call and Meito walks in home from school. He puts his backpack in the kitchen and he grabs a juice bottle from the fridge and starts to drink it.

"Meito want some ramen?" I asked.

"Okay." Meito replied.

I got up and got whatever I could find in the pantry and fridge. I'm not the type that follows recipes. However, I make what I could find in the fridge. I made Meito some miso with ramen and extra seaweed. I omitted the tofu since he didn't like it.
