Shai's POV:
Eight months down, one more to go.
Theo and I decided to keep the baby's gender a surprise.
But we are going to tell the boys.
Theo and I sit Ian and Brent down.
"Boys. Daddy and I have something to tell you," I say.
"You know how Uncle Tanner and I are siblings."
"You brother, he sister?"
Theo laughs, "Something like that."
"Well you two are going to have a little brother or sister," I say.
"Bwother!" they both yell.
As soon as they said that, I frowned.
What if I give birth to a girl and they don't like her?
What if they think I don't love them anymore because I am taking care of the third baby?
What if they hate their little sibling?
"Or a sister," Theo says.
"Bwother!" they begin chanting.
I get up and walk to the patio.
I put my hand on my abdomen.
"They'll get used to you. Boy or girl. They will love you," I say. "Because Daddy and I love you."
I feel a pair strong arms wrap around my waist. Or my belly.
"They'll accept him or her," he says.
He kisses my cheek.
"What if--"
"Shai. No what ifs."
I sigh.
"Think of the good," he says.
He kisses me.

I get up the next morning and rush to the bathroom.
I made an unpleasant sound.
