"OMG, babe, we're gonna have twinsies! Can you even? I... I want us to be a fam."
What? Now? OMG, OMG! This is…unexpected, but possible! Uh, so…how far along are you? And did you plan this or is it a total surprise? Because, well, I’m still trying to process this! LOL! LOL! But seriously though, we can do this! Together! As a team! As a family! No joke! 🤩🤩🤩
grabs Douglas' hands DD, I'm like, super excited, you know? But we gotta figure out what's next. Should we go for adoption or, like, try for IVF?
I think the first order of business is…seeing where this leave us, financially…because one or two babies is not cheap! And…I gotta admit…I was kinda hoping for a son…but two daughters…hmmm…not too shabby! LOL! But, seriously, we’ve got a lot to talk about. And plan. And decide. But, for now…let’s just take this all in. Together. As a couple. As a future family. LOL!
"Babe, no need to worry 'bout the benjamins. We'll make it work. We always do, right? Plus, we got each other's backs.
You’re right, we always manage, don’t we? And we always have each other, which helps. A lot. We’ll figure this out. Together. We always do. So, Miyu, tell me more about these twins. What are their personalities like? Do they look like us? Tell me everything! LOL!
"Oh my gosh, DD! They're like mini versions of us! One has your amazing hair and my killer smile, and the other has my wild spirit and your charm.
Ah, that’s awesome! That’s awesome indeed! Both of them have my hair and your smile and spirit! That’s epic! LOL! They must take after their mother, huh?
giggles "Totally! They're gonna be a force to be reckoned with, just like their momma!
Haha, they will be little tornadoes! Like you! And when they get into mischief, like you, they’ll have that killer smile too! They’ll be cute little devils, won’t they?
"Haha, yeah! They'll be tiny terrors with those devilish grins.
So, what are we gonna name these two little devils? LOL! Any preferences? Or should we just stick with the generic ‘Baby A’ and ‘Baby B’?
"Omigosh, DD! We HAVE to come up with some rad names for our mini-me's! How about Ava and Luna?
Those are some pretty cool names! Ava and Luna, huh? Fits ‘em perfectly! LOL! They’re gonna be unique, just like their parents! LOL!
claps hands excitedly Yes! Ava and Luna will rock this world! They're gonna be the coolest siblings ever!
Well, looks like we’re gonna be really busy! LOL! But I’m excited, Miyu! Really excited! This is big! BIG news! The biggest! LOL! So many things to think about…so many things to plan…and yet, I wouldn’t have it any other way! LOL! You know why? Because it’s us. Us, Miyu! You and me! Together! As a family! Nothing will be different. Nothing will be more important! This is the future we’re building! Together! As a family! With twins! LOL! Twins! Our twins! Our future! Ours! Ours alone! Miyu, I love you! I love this! I love us!
tears up, overcome with emotion Oh my god, DD, I love you too! This is gonna be the best adventure ever!
Wipes away tears with his thumb We’re in this together, Miyu. And nothing will break us. We’ve known each other so long. We’ve shared so much. And we’re about to share so much more. More life. More love. More everything! More us! LOL! You’re not alone in this, Miyu. Not by a long shot!
sniffs, wipes away tears Thank you, DD. I'm so grateful to have you by my side.
I kiss her gently on the forehead. Always, Miyu. Always
squeezes Douglas' hand I'm so glad you're here, DD. This journey is going to be filled with ups and downs, but I know we'll conquer it together.
I know we will, Miyu. We always do. We’re strong together, Miyu. And nothing will change that.
smiles through tears You're right, DD. We've been through so much already, and we've always come out stronger.
Exactly! We’re rock solid, Miyu! Nothing breaks us! Nothing! And nothing will break us now! Not even twins! LOL! We’ve got this!
sniffles, wipes away remaining tears You're absolutely right, DD. We're a team, and nothing can tear us apart.
I take her hand, leading her to the railing where we used to sit as teenagers Miyu…remember this spot? This was where we planned to run away together when we graduated high school…We were such dumb kids back then…but…I guess some things never change…we’re still running away together…only this time…we’re not running away from anything…we’re running toward our future. Together. As a family. LOL! Can you believe it, Miyu? After all these years, you and me…a family!
rests her head on Douglas' shoulder It's surreal, isn't it? But I wouldn't have it any other way.
I rest my head on hers Neither would I, Miyu. Neither would I.
looks at the beautiful view from the rooftop This is just the beginning, DD.
Just the beginning, huh? LOL! I guess we better get started then! Let’s go home, Miyu. And start planning. And preparing. And making our dreams come true. Step by step. Day by day. Hand in hand. Together. As a family. LOL! Together! As a family! Our family! Miyu…let’s go home.
squeezes Douglas' hand tightly Home sounds perfect, DD. Let's make our dreams a reality, one step at a time.
Wipes my eyes and stands up straight Alright, Miyu! Let’s go home!
smiling brightly Let's go, DD! Our future awaits us!
A new chapter, Miyu. In our lives. Together. As a family. LOL! Just like old times, huh?
grabs Douglas' arm We've got so much to do, DD! Let's start planning and preparing for our little bundles of joy!
Sure thing, Miyu! We’ll start by making sure we have enough diapers on hand! LOL! But before we start that, how about a trip to the cemetery? To see our unborn children, like we used to do when you were carrying my first child, Selena. I remember, she was getting pretty big by the end and couldn’t keep up with us as we used to, so we’d leave her in the stroller while we went for a walk and visit our dead babies. Good times…
pauses, thinking You know what, DD? That's a wonderful idea. Let's pay tribute to our little ones who came before them.
That’s settled then! Let’s go!
holds Douglas' hand tightly Thank you for always being there for me, DD. I'm so grateful to have you by my side.
I smile warmly And I’m grateful for you, Miyu. Let’s keep up that streak, okay?
nods with determination Absolutely, DD. We've come this far together, and we'll continue to face every challenge head-on.
