Mitsuhide took Kit back to her house, where he went on to show her how much he missed her the past few weeks and also how much he did truly love her. It started with a simple back rub and then progressed. He knew he would spend the rest of his life paying for that one mistake, if only his mind. He knew it had cost them both something that he wished he could completely take back, but he knew he couldn’t. He also, for the first time, realized the simple power of love in those hours.
She was willing to say goodbye to all that she had come to love only because of him and his words and actions. She had been broken and defeated but she still had the heart to want to say goodbye to June and the twins because simply her heart wouldn’t let h
Time passed again in the way it always does. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow. Though Mitsuhide wanted Kit back on the base but she kept her offices in the hospital to be closer if anything happened to June and the twins. It was a debate they had almost daily. She had decided to keep the post, but she would work via link from now on. Life was moving on, and so were they. After a debate on him moving into the house which he had won. All of Mitsuhide’s things had been moved to her house, and they were striving to make everything work between them. They were stronger now that they at least knew the basic truth of the situation. They knew they were stronger together anyways.
The idea was to get June to at least thirty-three weeks and no more than thirty-six. The fact that the two boys were growing at a normal rate for a singleton pregnancy was proving to be difficult for the doctors to work with, but they were trying. There were many discussions not that June was at thirty-three weeks but possibly further along. No one knew exactly how to go on with her treatment. June was a medical marvel at this point, not only surviving through to this point in the pregnancy but the fact she was carrying two what seemed to be full-sized healthy babies. The team of doctors met every day via video conferencing and had to discuss the outcome of the c-section that would be done. The main reason was they had given June some blood thi
When she got to work, she checked in with the morgue and saw there were only two bodies there, and both had been assigned to the other doctors there. She knew they were cutting her workload the closer to the time that June was going to have the babies. Her boss, who had taken an interest in the case on a personal level through the news reports on it, was shocked to find out that she was a part of it at all. As the time went on, he had been changing her hours and working with her to find anything that could be of help to June or the twins. Most of the doctors around her had been doing that and even debating the outcomes of new treatments. Everyone had stepped up and tried to help at some point. It was a good feeling that she was supported by her co-workers, who understood the nature of the case. Everyone was trying to hunt done
“What the hell do you mean it is time?” Mitsuhide called out after her as she had turned out the door and started to her car.“June is in labor.” Kit said as she called over her shoulder. “Sometime when we were in there, she started to have contractions. They are moving her and trying to stop them. Simon was trying to reach us the entire time we were in there.”“Can they?” Mitsuhide said as he caught up to her and then almost started jogging to his car. The conversation was continuing as they both got in their cars, and they basically yelling across the parking lot. Neither one of them care if everyone could hear wha
“But it is still too early for them,” Mitsuhide said as he thought about what she said. A fear washed over him for a minute as he looked around to all the activity going on around him. “They have to stop it.”“Twins naturally come early. Mitsuhide, we have everyone and everything doing what needs to be done. Even a few more hours is good right now. Though they will have to keep an eye on her because of the surgery but everything is going to the plan they set out for this happening. She is really at thirty-four plus weeks, and most importantly, we know this is happening right now, and she is here where they can do what they need, too, when they need too. From the last ultrasound, they both are measuring closer to thi
Kit walked into the operating room prepared to act if she was needed. This was still her mindset, and she knew that was also the reason Mitsuhide wanted her in there with his sister. He would be behind the doors watching as everything happened through a window so they both could see their sons being born. She stood at the end of the table where June’s head was, and she looked down at her. Life was going to change in the next five minutes. All because Mitsuhide’s sister made it this far. She bent down, “It is almost over, June.” The doctors all were in their places. There were two tables set up for the teams of pediatricians to work on the two on the side of the room. Everythi
The hours passed by though neither of them was ready to admit that it seemed like only a few minutes. They didn’t have to say anything between them as they looked at the two small sleeping newborns. Both of the adults were making plans for the next few days.They began to hear a ruckus outside the room and in the main hallway of the ward. Kit was the first one on her feet and to the door to look out into the ward. The boys were still sleeping soundly, and she wanted to see if there was a problem, and if she could help. Before they woke up and they had to only focus on the babies.She poked her head out of the roo
“What do you mean?” Mitsuhide asked as they went into the room. She was tired he could already see. The loss of June was going to take a toll on her. She softened her gaze as she looked at the baby who was lying in the small crib. They both were starting to wake up slowly. Kit looked around the room and got the bottles ready for the twins knowing that they would be hungry when they woke up in a few minutes. She also got the diapers ready for them to be changed. Instantly she had gone from grieving to wanting to care for her sons. Mitsuhide had taken the sight in and smiled to himself at it. Kit was one of a kind in everything she did.“Call the detective please while I get them ready for this.” Kit said, “Have him c
