Magical Ties 84 Little Lotus

"Wow, your little alien has a strong heartbeat. "Yona says with a sigh. Astila smacks him in the back of the head playfully.

"How can you call lotus an alien?"

Yona laughs at his brother.

"What would you call that? Its head is big and the rest is so tiny you can barely make it out. Right now she resembles a little alien in a cave."

Aisling smiles watching the two playfully fight, though not liking that her stomach and child are a cave and alien. Funny none the less. She breaks up the fight by asking the tech to make an extra copy for the baby's uncle, please.

" Now all we have left is for them to say my blood work is ok. Then we all can go to the house. I want Korean food for dinner. I am craving some kimchi and rice. If you guys want something else just tell me and I will cook it for you."

Yona looks at her, he is unsure if she knows the superst.i.tion that they have or not.

"That's ok I will bring something from a take out place do not trouble yourself." He quickly tells her hoping not to upset her.

"Look I know that men in your culture think pregnant and menstruating women are dangerous to others. I also know that it's ok for me to do certain things without endangering you. Jeez, Unole should have taught you better. " with that she continues to mumble under her breath. Yona turns to his brother his mouth open in shock. How did she know their ancestor's name? Astila looks at him and winks while smiling with amus.e.m.e.nt. His brother is going to be in for a few surprises.

The tech is smiling at how playful they are. She wishes all families were this playful. The three get ready to go back to the room when the obstetrician comes in. Astila and Aisling stare at her. It's Moll she is going to deliver Aisling's baby they cannot contain their happiness. Aisling was beaming at her hoping she remembered her.

"You're not done yet child , I want to check a few things. "She starts looking at the baby and listens to her heartbeat.

"This little one is going to be a strong one. "Then she does some maneuvering and they hear a more quiet sound.

"Just as I thought. You have two little babes. They are in total sync so it sounds like one beat. Congratulations you are being blessed with two. Winking at Aisling letting her know that her earlier prediction was correct. With the wink, Aisling knows that She remembers. Holding Astila's hand she asks her.

"Would you like to come for dinner tonight? There is someone you should see." The Dr simply replied

"Of course I will be there straight after work. See you soon children." With that, she walks out letting the nurse know she has signed all of the discharge papers.

Astila looks at her silently questioning her about Moll.

She places her finger over her mouth to tell him no telling. Yona has no clue what they are up to, but he is starving now he gets his set of pictures from the nurse. Turning to his brother

"I need directions to your house if I am going to stay there?" Aisling giggles and stands up going over and hugging her new brother.

"Thank you I promise you will enjoy the closet . " she waves the nurse away with the wheelchair and skips like a child back to her room ready to get dressed to go home.

Astila chuckles at her lord this is going to be a fun night. Yona looks at his brother, what has this slip of a woman done to his family? His sister is possibly dating, his uncle is smiling, his brother has totally gone bonkers. Astila looks at his brother.

"You will see soon enough. I promise you, and no you didn't say anything out loud. I know what you are thinking. It's the same that we all have thought at one time. Part of me wishes you had been here from the start. That way I don't have to explain anything to you. The other half is glad you were not. If you had been things could have been much more complicated. I know once you understand more you will love her. Not as much as I do, but you will. Now let's get, my little family home I'm sure by now there are about a hundred people at the house waiting. You will come to find Aisling has an enormous family and they do not love from a distance. Take auntie Jin and the commander, for instance, this is the third time in six months they have flown home. All with just a call. They are a great family but they have a few issues with her uh beliefs."

By the time the two men are back to her room, she is ready to go. She starts handing them vases of flowers to carry out to the car. When they get to the entrance of the hospital Astila helps her into the car and Yona flows behind.
