“I often wonder if this was what the other two felt, but they could act on it much sooner,” Steven said softly.“I don’t think it is,” Calista said as she tilted her head. “My sisters have the ability to turn heads and knew it at the time.”“And you think you don’t?” Steven asked with a laugh, “Calista, you are the one most like Krissy. You do realize your mother is gorgeous, and your dad is a lucky man, right?”“I never saw it other than the science aspect. She loves science, and I took after that way. I mean, Reena did too, but not as much.” Calista said softly.“Reena is Reena, and Gina is Gina. Calista, you are special in your own way, as well.” Steven said as he looked her over.“And you have to be the one to tell me that?” She chuckled.“Yes, I believe I do have to be the one to tell you that. “He replie

He walked up behind her, “you know, I thought this would never happen.” He whispered in her ear.“I know you did,” she said as she turned in his arms to face him. “But it did. the laws of simple motion are the reason.”“Of course, they are.” He laughed as he smiled at her with an open fondness that warmed her heart. “So, how long exactly are you not going to live here?”“Steven!” Calista said as she looked at him.“Well, who could blame me for asking that?” Steven asked. “I mean, your sisters changed their lives when they realized how they felt for the others. Could I be as hopeful?”“Steven, I tell you what,” Calista said with a look. “We will spend

  Six months later…….. All four of the men in the unit were on edge. Krissy would walk in, and they all would watch her. She shouldn’t be at work, and they knew it. Not only was she beyond her due date, and extremely large all of their wives were s well. Though no one would actually say it.“What?” Krissy asked as she looked at them.“Why don’t you go sit down, please, honey?” Mark asked.“Guys, I am not going into labor this second.” She said. “Neither are the girls.”“You are handling this a little too calmly,” Steven said as he ran his fingers through his hair.“Yeah, mom,” Yuri said.“I swear one day I will shoot you, Yuri,” Krissy said. “Honestly, I want you all to know if the girls all go into labor at the same time, which by the way, is a sure-fire way for Mark to go insane.
