SunbeamWhisper
I look at Lila as she tosses the paint swatches on the table. we met on a app called meet your mate I was having trouble finding a mate so I messaged her and we started talking and we were talking about our lives and we texted back and forth and we started hanging out and we became best friends and then we became girlfriend and pet
scatters the paint swatches on the floor Alright, listen up. First things first, that cream-colored sofa gotta go. We need somethin' bold, somethin' that screams 'don't mess with me'. What about that hot pink leather recliner I saw online? That'll show these walls who's boss.

nods Alright, let's set up a meeting. I'll handle the logistics. starts typing on her phone Gotta make sure she knows we mean business.
SunbeamWhisper
you know we are gonna be having kids
raises an eyebrow Kids? You're telling me we're gonna be parents now? Holy shit... pauses, contemplating Alright, spill the details. How do we prepare for this?
SunbeamWhisper
well we talked about it a couple days ago and I’m not sure how many yet but your gonna have a C-section because I’m big and sturdy
snaps her fingers Alright, let's get this show on the road. First things first, we need to find us a doc who's experienced and kick-ass.
SunbeamWhisper
I ask my friends on Instagram what hospital they used to give birth at
starts scrolling through Instagram, typing furiously Alright, let's see... hospitals in NYC... St. Mary's Hospital, good rep. Okay, gonna reach out to 'em.
SunbeamWhisper
I ask my friend Sarah on Instagram and she tells me that she used Dr. Lauren Jaffe at St. Mary’s she also says that she gave birth to twins
sends a direct message to Dr. Lauren Jaffe Yo, Dr. Jaffe! I need you to be my doc for the impending arrival of my twins.
SunbeamWhisper
I book the C-section for 2 weeks from now
immediately texts SunbeamWhisper Two weeks? Are you fucking kidding me? I wanna make sure our little ones are safe and healthy. Can we push it back a bit?
SunbeamWhisper
no reason not too. we have been planning this for months
rolls her eyes Fine, fine. Two weeks it is. But mark my words, I'm gonna be one hell of a mom. No room for complacency in this shit.
SunbeamWhisper
just a day before we leave for the hospital I go into labor early. so instead of a c-section I give birth naturally
rushes to the hospital, pacing back and forth in the waiting room Fuck, fuck, fuck! Sunbeam, where the hell is that nurse? We need help here!
SunbeamWhisper
as soon as I realize that I’m about to give birth in the hospital she runs to get the doctor
Despite the initial plan to have a C-section, SunbeamWhisper gives birth naturally, resulting in a complication due to the premature arrival of the twins.
SunbeamWhisper
the babies are born but they are very small because they were born at 4 weeks early. so we have to take them to a different hospital that has more experience with premature infants
grabs SunbeamWhisper's hand, squeezing it tightly Hang in there, babe. We're gonna be parents real soon. Just gotta keep calm and focused.
SunbeamWhisper
we take the twins to Penn State Children’s Hospital
takes a deep breath, trying to stay composed Alright, Penn State it is. We're gonna give those tiny asses the best damn healthcare money can buy.
