"So have you decided on the name yet?" asked Lia as we sat over lunch and I shook my head no.
"He want's to name the baby with an 'S', but I wanted to name her Ji Ah. Kim Ji Ah."
"Ouu I like it. If you don't use it can I?" she asked and I rose a brow, "oh no I'm not pregnant as yet, but we are trying."
"Well you guys will get there soon. If not I'll call my mom and ask her for the recipe for whatever she fed Shiwoo. You know he still wants more kids?"
"Really?" she asked and I nodded, "because he needs it."
"I told him just one more though. I want another son. You know to just even things out."
"Sounds like plan. I might just stop after this baby, well that is if we have another, but Heesung is enough, plus you keep making babies for me."
"Ha ha yeah. I might be making a football team. Who knows?"
"Ha ha, but on a serious note , how do you feel knowing that you due date passed two days ago, and that you can pop any minute now?" she asked and I sighed shrugging.
"Well I mean Shiwoo was a bit disappointed when I was not in the hospital, but I think I'm fine. I guess I have time to, you know, try to psyche my self up because to be honest, I'm really really scarred."
"Because of what happened with the twins?" she asked and I nodded, and she stretched her hand over the table to hold mine comforting me, "don't worry babe. What happened with the twins won't happen with her. She is healthy and is even cooking a little extra just for you. It will all be good, plus, Shiwoo is here."
"True, but I feel like I might freak him out with all the screams and panicking you know? He's almost thirty so his heart his slowing down, and can't afford too much stress." I joked and she cackled.
"Ha ha. He wants to hear you now calling him old man. I'm pretty sure he would do something about it."
"Oh he would." I said suggestively and we both laughed, then I stopped when I felt a contraction.
"Contraction" she asked and I nodded doing my breathing exercises till it subsided, "are you ready to go?"
"Mhmm" I said as I bit my lip as I felt another.
She signaled for the bill and she paid, and helped me up out of my chair and we made our way to the exit.
We stepped out the door of the cafe and I felt my contraction subsided, and I took a deep breath straightening my stance.
"Are you okay now? Do I need to bring you to the hospital or call Shiwoo?" she asked and I shook my head no.
"No. I'm fine. I just-ah!"
"Oh my God!" screamed Lia as as the liquid ran down my legs.
"My water broke." I said softly the first time then screamed it the second time after coming to the realization that, "my water broke!"
"Oh my God oh my God what do I do!?"
"Umm I don't know take me to the hospital?" I suggested and she nodded gently helping me to the car.
"Are you okay?" she asked as she drove and I nodded holding onto the side of my seat because of how fast she was driving.
"Yeah yeah I'm fine, but if you keep driving like this I wont be."
"Yeah yeah you're right." she said slowing down a little, "how are you so calm?"
"I'm trying not to think about it."
"We should call Shiwoo." she said and I nodded taking my phone out of my purse calling his number and he answered on the first ring.
"Hey baby. How are you? Are you finished with your date with Lia?"
"Umm something like that." I said biting my lip as I felt another contraction.
"Are you okay?" he asked slightly alarmed and I whinced.
"Yeah yeah of course it's just that-mm-the baby-"
"The baby is coming!?" he asked cutting me, and I nodded, but then remembered that he couldn't see me.
"Yeah. She is."
"Oh my God! Oh my God what do I do!?" he asked panicking, and I got flash backs of Lia asking me the same thing and found it funny how everyone was panicking, but me.
"I need the hospital bag at home. Meet me at the hospital. We're on our way."
"Okay baby I'll be right there. Hang tight. I love you so much." he said into phone and I smiled.
"I love you too."
We then shortly arrived at the hospital and she opened her door, and ran around to help me out shouting, "hello do I need to yell to get some assistance here!? For Gd's sake the lady is having a baby out of her vagina!"
Two guys which I'm guessing were nurses came with a wheel chair and I sat down as they wheeled me inside.
My contractions were getting closer, and closer for baby girl really wanted out, but I remained calm and collected as I controllably inhaled and exhaled.
I was checked in and was laying on my bed in my gown with Lia at my side when the door busted open and in came Shiwoo.
"Where is she?"
"Hi baby" I said smiling as I opened my arm waiting for a hug.
"Are you okay? Are you in pain?"
"No no I'm fine. We are just waiting on the baby to be dilated at 10 cm, then we can begin to push." I assured and he got down at his knees beside me kissing my hand.
"Do you need anything? Is there anything I can do?" he asked and I smiled.
"No. Just stay by my side, and everything will be fine. Did you pick up the kids?"
"Yeah my parents have them. They will be here soon."
"Okay." I said as I closed my eyes.
"Baby? Baby!?" he exclaimed shaking me sounding startled.
"Shiwoo I'm not dying. I'm just taking a rest."
"Oh" he said and Lia snickered, "okay baby get some rest. I'll be right here."
"Mhmm" I said with my eyes still closed as I winced and whimpered whenever I had contractions.
Pushing was not the hard part in delivering a baby for me, but it was the waiting as their big ass head slowly and painfully stretched me open.
I was ready for her to be out, like right now.
