"Soulmates"

Chapter 24 👨🏻‍🏫❤👮🏼‍♀️

Raquel: yes doctor, and you couldn't see it! How it is possible !

Doctor: you didn't do any ultrasound afterwards?

Raquel: No, I had an appointment while my husband was away and I didn't want to go without him.

Doctor: but that's why you didn't know! Because you've only had the first ultrasound and 7 weeks is an early stage of pregnancy!

Me: so all this time we were expecting twins and we didn't know it! (I say smiling but at the same time I'm surprised)

Doctor: Yes, it's clear now! And they are fraternal twins to be more precise! (He said laughing and showing me the screen)

We laugh. I am really very happy! And I really didn't expect that!

Raquel: Oh my god! I am so happy ! (She said smiling with tears in her eyes)

Me: Me too my love, I am very happy!

Raquel looks at me with a smile.

Raquel: and can we know their gender doctor?

Doctor: wait, I'll see if it's possible... yes, yes it shows!

We wait impatiently for what he will tell us.

Doctor: Are you ready?

Raquel and me: YES!

Doctor: you are going to have a little girl and a little boy!

Me: YEEES!

Raquel begins to cry with joy, I take her in my arms.

Doctor: I'm going to go to my office to give you some privacy. (he said smiling)

Me: Do you remember the other day when we were choosing baby names, when you asked me, do I want a boy or a girl? and I told you both! (I say smiling) and you answered me: Sergio! I'm not pregnant with twins! (I say imitating Raquel)

She laughs and pushes me slightly, I laugh.

Me: well now we're going to have a boy and a girl! ILYAN AND LUCIA! (I say out loud)

Raquel: Sergio! Do not scream ! (she says laughing)

Me: But I'm happy! MY WIFE IS PREGNANT WITH TWINS! AND THAT'S NOT ALL...

Raquel: Sergio!

Me: IT'S A GIRL AND A BOY! ILYAN AND LUCIA!

Raquel: Sergio! Stopped ! We are in a hospital!

Me: I don't care ! I have to express myself!

Raquel laughs.

Me: shall we go home? Paula will be so happy to hear this news!

Raquel: let's go!

The doctor gives us the ultrasound pictures, and tells Raquel that she needs a lot of rest from now on, because according to him it's possible that this pregnancy is going to be difficult, and I'm so afraid that this possibility will take place! But let's stay positive!
We arrived at home.

Me: PAULAAA!

Paula comes running from her room.

Paula: PAPAAA!

and she throws herself on me, I pick her up and I laugh, Raquel laughs too. She is very cute !

Me: We have to tell you something! I'm sure you'll be very happy!

Raquel: You know we were at the doctor's this morning?

Paula: YES! To know will I have a little brother or a little sister!

Me: Exactly sweetheart! (I say giving her a kiss on the cheek)

Paula: And? Is it a girl or a boy ?

Me: BOTH!

Paula: huh!?

Raquel: I'm pregnant with twins! That means I have two babies in my belly! But we didn't know that, do you understand?

Paula: yes!

Me: so you're going to have a little brother and a little sister!

Paula: Is it true!?

We nod our heads.

Paula: YEAH! IT'S TOO GOOD! I AM REALLY VERY HAPPY!

Marivi arrives.

Marivi: PAULA! Why are you screaming in the morning?

Paula: because I'm going to have a little brother and a little sister!

Maria: WHAT!?

Raquel: Mom I'm pregnant with fraternal twins! And it's a girl and a boy!

Maria: Oh! I am very happy my daughter! Come here! (She says taking Raquel in her arms)

I drop Paula on the floor, she starts jumping everywhere, I laugh, it shows that she is so happy! Marivi come towards me, she takes me in her arms.

Marivi: congratulations my boy!

Me: thank you Marivi!

Raquel: Sergio, we have to invite the gang to tell them the news.

Me: yes you are right! I had totally forgotten!

She laughs lightly.

Me: sweetheart can you call them? And I will prepare everything! We invite them for next week?

Raquel: yes that's fine with me! (She said smiling)

I hug him.

Me: I'm so happy!

Raquel: me too my love!

I smile.

Raquel: Sergio we forgot to buy new clothes and baby clothes!

Me: Oh! I completely forgot!

Raquel: Me too!

Me: are we going to buy them tomorrow?

Raquel: Alright.

I smile.
