My mother and my father shared happy looks, nodding enthusiastically. &quot;We know that it may be hard for you,&quot; my mom began, smiling nervously at me, eager for my approval, &quot;but we hope that you'll be ok with it. You're a good girl, we know.&quot; It was a question, I knew, one to see how I felt, and I couldn't crush the happy glow in my mom. I knew that at one point my mom had wanted a huge family. They thought that maybe that wouldn't happen, when they tried for a while to have a baby without sucess. I had been their miracle. Now, it seemed, they had another, and I couldn't ruin that. I wasn't sure how I felt about being a big sister at this age (and with my mother's age!), but I smiled back. &quot;That's great, Mom. That's really great.&quot; My parents looked relieved for a moment, and then simply smiled goofy smiles at each other and me. &quot;So, um, why don't we eat?&quot; 2008-03-06T23:00:20Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/22613 <p>Sequel if you please :) FANTASTIC !</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/22613?basename=46012 2008-03-06T23:00:20Z Dreamer http://ficlets.com/authors/dreamer <p> MORE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
