-Sickbay-

Robert arrived in sickbay to see Tom and Petra sitting on a bio bed each. He walked over to Alice who was talking to a nurse.

“ What have they done now?” He asked

“ Nothing. I thought it best to have them checked over. All that ice cream could not have been good for their systems.” Alice said

“ I already checked them out.” He said as Alice guided out of the twins' hearing.

“ I know. But they were supposed to be going to a party now. This is their punishment if they had not acted like pigs. Then they could have been at Zara’s birthday tea. Instead of having to have their tummies checked over.” Alice explained

“ That’s good thinking. He have a patient coming in. Speak later.” Hendon said noticing Toran arrive.

He walked over to her. There was something about Sheena. Robert had seen this look before. He glanced over at Alice and two little sulking faces. Robert returned his gaze and gestures towards a bio bed.

“ If you just like to lay on this bio bed. Now what………” Robert said looking at the readings.

A wave of nausea hit Sheena just as she was going to talk. Swallowing hard, "2 months 1 week since my last cycle. I have a bun in the oven as humans would jokingly say," she said, trying to smile thru the urge to turn green and run to the bathroom yet again.

Hendon looked over the bio bed readings very closely.The Fetus was healthy and the correct shape.

“ I can’t give you anything for the morning sickness. As it will build up and could harm junior. Yes you are indeed with child. Incredible that you know how long. Do you wish to know what sex the child will be?” Hendon reported

"Ryan would go crazy were it a boy, you know, baseball, hoverball, etc, things like what a father would want to do and teach his own son. As for me having a healthy baby is what I would love to have," Sheena said smiling widely.

“ Then well keep it a secret for now. That’s what Alice and I did. Even when we discovered Alice was having twins. The way they kicked her. Probably started fighting in the womb. If their current behaviour is anything to go by. But there is only one fetus in your womb and it is quite healthy. Your need to up your food intake and vitamin intake as well.A simple fruit juice mix each morning will help with that. Plus it will help with the nausea.” Hendon said.” Well give you a diet sheet to follow and your need to visit here regularly. Does Ryan know by the way?”

"Nope not yet. He will though soon enough," Sheena said laughing. "If everything is fine, I'm gonna go tell him now. Just wanted to be sure before I spill the beans," she added.

“ Fair enough. Your have to go on light duties for now. Plus we will need you to make regular appointments with us once a week. But otherwise you can go for now. Just remember your eating for two now.” Hendon said

"Thanks Dr. Hendon, in a week I will be back," Sheena said. Now to go and tell Ryan would be a shock to be sure as she left sickbay.
