Rachel: standing up, visibly shaking I-I have an announcement... I'm pregnant!
Rachel: takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself I know it may come as a surprise, but I'm keeping it.
Oh really? Thats awesome, I cant wait to be a godmother!
Rachel: nervously touches her stomach It's still early, but I already feel a kick. This little one is going to change everything, Stranger.
You sure? It doesn’t show yet
Rachel: smiles defiantly I may not look pregnant yet, but I feel it inside. This is going to be a life-changing moment for all of us, Stranger.
Yes, very happy with this news…
Rachel: holds Stranger's hand Thank you for being here, Stranger. Your support means the world to me.
Of course, Rachel. Family is important, always.
Rachel: grateful I appreciate it, Stranger. Family is indeed the most important thing in life. And having you by my side makes all the difference.
Indeed it does, Rachel. You’re my sister, and I’ll be here for you through thick and thin!
Rachel: hugs Stranger tightly Thank you, Stranger. Your love and support mean the world to me. We'll face this new chapter together, as a family.

Rachel: reaches into her bag and pulls out a positive pregnancy test Here, see for yourself. Two lines. Positive. I'm pregnant!
Rachel: hands the positive pregnancy test to Stranger That's right, Stranger. I'm pregnant, and we're going to be parents together.
Did you and Jordan do it yourself? Or was it someone else?
Rachel: hesitates for a moment, then takes a deep breath It was Jordan. We did it together, Stranger.
That’s wonderful news, so how far along are you?
Rachel: takes out an ultrasound picture I'm five weeks pregnant, Stranger. We decided to keep this little miracle despite the challenges ahead.
That’s great, you wanna know the gender?
Rachel: excitedly Yes, Stranger, I can't wait to find out the gender! I've always imagined what it would be like to know the gender before the baby arrives.
Me too, Rachel. I bet we’ll make great parents.
Rachel: grabs Stranger's hand You're absolutely right, Stranger. We're going to be amazing parents!
If your heart tells us to go left, then we go left. If it tells us to go right, then we go right!
Rachel: determined You're right, Stranger. We'll listen to our hearts and trust our instincts.
Exactly! Now, when do we find out the gender?
Rachel: smiling confidently We've already scheduled an ultrasound appointment for next week, Stranger.
