9 Double trouble

It was the greatest moment of our lives. We had instantly begun to tell everyone of our good news. We got our ultrasound a week later. What we saw on the screen was unlike anything we'd ever expected. The pictures showed not one baby, but two. We were pregnant with twins. We had to celebrate.

It was beautiful, the moon was full and stars shined like pin holes in the sky. There was a nice breeze to cool down the summer air. We were laughing and joking, walking hand in hand through the park while we hunted for the best spot. Everything was perfect, until suddenly it wasn't.
