DAYS MISSING: 109

Beau's POV

"Beau!! Come to the hospital! The babies are coming!!"
"Omygoddd its finally happening!!! Im coming immediately!"

I leave all the work I was doing and jump in the car. I've started working again last month. I have to get a steady salary for when the babies are here. And now, finally its time. They are coming.
September 1st 2015. Today, i will be a dad!

Jen's POV

I wake up, hear the birds whistling and get out of bed. I feel my back hurting a little as I get up. The pregnancy is starting to take it's tolls. The due date is January 10th. Right now it's September 1st and the baby bump is quite something already. I can feel the baby kicking. It's such a marvelous feeling!

I get dressed, because I have quite a bump already l pull on a azure-green maxi-dress.

I walk out of the cabin and immediately Linh, Maila and Yenika are running towards me.
"Heeeyy beauties! How are you today?"

They giggle and hug me. Linh grabs my hand. "Come, come!"
"What's up mijas?"

They drag me all the way beyond the palm trees to the beach.
There I see pink and yellow flowers lying in a heartshape on the sand.
"Wow! Did you girls make this???"

They nod proudly. "It's amazing! So beautiful!"
Then Maila hands me a beautiful flower tiara. Adorable!!

She places it on my head and she smiles widely.
"Ohh girls!! Thankyou! This is pretty!"

They giggle and run away. I take a deep breath, smile and stare into the deep, wide ocean.
God, I love Thailand.

"There you are! Looking all flowery and everything."
Harry walks up to me smiling. "Hi Harry." I smile back at him.

"Yeah.. The girls.."
"They adore you. You're their idol." He smiles.

"Did you sleep well?" He continues.
"Like a rose. And you?"

"I slept pretty great myself too. How is the baby?"
"Good, I think. I think it's comfortable in there."

"You still don't have a clue about the gender?"
"I don't know.. I don't want to know it yet."
"But what's your feeling?"
"I don't try to imagine it. I would love to have a boy or a girl. It doesn't matter to me."

"Hmm. I still think it's a girl."
"We'll see." I grinse and walk away from the beach.

Harry follows me. "So, what are your plans for today?"
"I don't know yet.. I think I will meet Yihenna and Louisa to go to the market or something like that."

"To the market???"
"We're out of toilet paper."

"Girls day.. Off to buy toilet paper. That sounds like so much fun!" Harry smirks.
"Do you have any better plans yourself, mister buzzkill?"

"Actually yes, me and the guys are going to ride the quads today."

"Shit. You win."

He smirks. "You can always join ofcourse."

"I might.."

"Well.. I will meet them in front of my cabin by 3 o'clock. If you change your mind, you know where to find me."

"Thanks."
"Anytime."

We seperate our ways as I walk to the centre of this village while Harry goes into the woods. Off for his daily hike.

We've been in Thailand for 2 months now and I absolutely love it. The people here are so kind. Most of them don't have much money, but their heart is even bigger.

We're living in a small village. There is no tourism here, the people only live from farming basically.
They have cows, pigs, goats and chickens.
They produce milk, eggs, cheese and meat.

Also they have small lands where they produce rice and mais. And they have banana trees, orange trees and pineapples and coconuts.
It's all so small, but enough for feeding everyone.

And they have income from the things they sell on the market. That's only once a week. And they don't have an exact date for it. Just when the weather is the best, they build up the market. The word goes round from ear to ear and in one hour all the villages living close to this one have heard that there's market that day.

The men are working on the land or in construction all week. The women are at home taking care of the children and the animals living around the house and they are responsible for the house.

So when the women hear there's market, they grab their things and go. They sell some of their things and buy what they need.

Today there's market I heard, so I was planning on going to some women I met here. Yihenna and Louisa. Yihenna is 28 and has 3 children. Her eldest is a girl, Yalia, and she's 7 years old. Her other ones are twins. Two 3-year old boys. Yonilo and Foyai.

Louisa is 32 and has 5 kids! One of them is Maila, who ran to me this morning. She is 7 and such a sweetheart! Her other daughters are 9 and 11. She has 2 boys in the age of 4 and 2.

They are thrilled about the fact that soon I'm having my first. They already offered me to help at the delivery. Since the hospital is far away and here in the village its usual that women help each other during labor.

At first I was a bit worried, but now I trust them completely! Yihenna already helped 3 women giving birth. And she has 3 kids herself.
Louisa has 5 herself and also helped a couple of times.

They know what they do. Its a bigger risk to drive to a hospital than letting them help me here in the village.

I'm still a bit nervous about the delivery, but I think every woman is. Especially with the firstborn!

But I'm also excited. I'm gonna be a mommy!
