Chapter 285: Good News
It was Keira’s second ultrasound scan appointment today. She was so excited because this was the day when she could finally verify whether or not she was carrying twins. Her first scan didn’t confirm more than just the presence of a heartbeat, and it was difficult to determine whether or not there was more than one heartbeat.
"Why are your hands so cold?" Zach asked as they walked hand in hand toward the ob-gyn department of Yang hospital.
Keira laughed and replied, "Probably because I’m too excited."
After waiting a few minutes, an assistant nurse called her name, requesting her to go inside for her ultrasound session. Zach accompanied her into the room.
"Oh, congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Lim. You’re having twins," Doctor Jean Wang cheerfully informed the couple as she performed the scan on Keira’s belly.
Keira looked at the image of their twin babies on the screen, still the size of kidney beans. Happiness took hold of her, and tears immediately filled her eyes. She clutched onto Zach’s arm, her gaze still fixated on the screen, while she murmured in between her sobs, "I knew it... I told you we’re having twins. They told me through that dream... Oh gosh, that Deyna Song was right. I could really kiss her!"
Zach was smiling from ear to ear while he hugged Keira from her side. He was also staring at the screen before he said to doctor Wang, "My wife really worked hard for it, Doc."
"Ouch!!" Zach yelped when he felt Keira’s fingers pinching his side. Then he let out a hearty laugh as he tightened his hug on her and kiss her on her head. He, too, was overjoyed.
"No, of course, not... This General was the one who worked hard for it, right?" Zach coaxed her lovingly.
