The three young girls gasp in unison as they take the ultrasound photos from you, their eyes widening in wonder at the sight of the tiny bumps within. They hold them to their chests, cradling them like precious jewels.
"Oh my god," Kate whispers, her voice trembling with excitement. "They're real."

The three girls giggle and whisper amongst themselves, then turn back to you.
"We don't know..." says Min, her voice hushed. "Maybe it was all of you."
"Or maybe," Kate pipes up, "It was our imaginary boyfriend."

They look up at you, eyes wide and hopeful.
"You'd really want to be our boyfriend?" they ask in unison.

The girls nod, their eyes wide and innocent-looking.
Min: We've been craving things we know we're not supposed to have... and we missed our periods.
Kate: We think it must mean we're pregnant.
Tosha: We've been trying to find someone to take care of us...

Min grins, nudging you with her elbow. "We've decided we're ready for boyfriends now."
Kate adds, "Yeah, and we think it's time we find someone special."

The girls exchange sheepish grins, their cheeks flushing crimson as they try to come up with a convincing explanation. Min pipes up first.
Min: Uh... we might have accidentally eaten too many of those chocolate chip cookies, you know... the ones with extra sugar?

"You heard us." Min grins, resting a hand on her swelling belly. "We're pregnant, and we're looking for boyfriends." Kate and Tosha nod eagerly in agreement.
