《Begging for forgiveness》Chapter 4

Cameron's POV
I am currently 24 weeks pregnant and I look like I swallowed a watermelon. We are heading to my appointment at John hunter Hospital. I feel like a whale but I wouldn't change a thing. I get tired easily and it's hard to tie my shoelaces but I make it work.
My pregnancy has been going well so far. I stopped vomiting about 16 weeks along and the twins are measuring well. They were on the smaller side during the 20 week ultrasound but the doctor assured me that was ok. Keiran had been so surprised that I was having twins, he sent two massive teddy bears to my parents house for the twins. He begged me to find out the gender but I didn't want to. I wanted it to be a surprise for all my hard work. Something to look forward to after the 9 months carrying them. We had gotten really close and spoke to each other every day. He asked all about my baby bump and how I was doing in general. He had sent several gift baskets to me with little treats and cute little gender neutral things for the babies. I even printed a onesie line for uncles which he adored and ended up buying some for my twins. The ones he chose were "uncles best friend" and "if you think I'm cute wait till you see my uncle". I laughed when I saw the order from him.
Business is booming and I have given up going to the markets weekly. I open my office space up once a week now on Saturdays for people to come past and buy directly from me. It was to difficult to continue to do the markets while I'm pregnant. I do still do the pacific palms markets though considering they are literally across the road from my brothers house. He sets it all up for me and mum and I man the store. I have regulars who come past just to see my bump and usually end up buying little outfits from me. I also extended my range to include kids clothes.

Sage still helps out after school and Saturdays and has offered to run my setup for me when the babies arrive. She finishes year 12 at the end of the year and wants to take a year off uni but her parents have said she needs a job. I have been training her how to print the designs and she already is hands on with the tie dye so I am going to offer her the position. I will be still around and working part time. My mum had offered to help with the twins and they will attend daycare when they are old enough.
I have also looked at moving to a bigger warehouse because the office is getting way to crowded with the supplies I need. My brother owns the land that I'm using so I literally have no overheads for the business besides me internet and electricity. He has offered to check the cost of extending the space I have now so I could stay where I am. It's close to home meaning I could be at work and the twins could be home with my mum and it's only a 3 minute drive away. It's also a great place for people to see me as they drive past and I could even have a shop front so I could be selling every day. I would have to take out a business loan to fund the extension and then once that was done I would have to employ permanent staff as I would need a few working the printing stations and running the shop but that is a dream at the moment.
Keiran was going to be meeting us for the appointment today and my mum was concerned that Keith would be there. I had no reason not to trust Keiran though and I doubt Keith would be bothering me at all. Last the magazine reported was he and Sarah were now a thing because I betrayed them both. Keiran wanted to see my baby bump and had offered to come with me to look at prams and car seats for the twins. There wasn't a lot in Forster so being in Newcastle meant more places to look and I could actually physically see them and feel them rather than just ordering online.

I hadn't budgeted for twins but I knew I would make it work no matter what and I had been working a lot more to come up with the money for everything I needed for the twins. I would have to double everything and that was going to be pricey but I didn't mind at all. I myself didn't need much and was literally living in dresses that I was making myself and printing and dying along with some cheap Kmart tights as it was winter. I rarely wore shoes these days because my feet were usually swollen.
When we pulled up to the hospital I spotted Keiran right away calling out to him as I got out of the car. "Oh my god, look at you. Look at this bump. That's my nieces in there. It's uncle Keiran babies" he said. Keiran was convinced I was having twin girls and that they would be the mini versions of me. He told me it was his gut feeling. "They could also be your nephews in there or a niece and a nephew Keiran" I replied. "Nonsense. I know what I'm talking about" he replied.
We headed into my appointment with me making introductions. Today Lucy was here for my appointment. She measured my stomach, took my blood pressure and then asked if Keiran wanted to hear the babies heart beat. He eagerly agreed and I got up on the bed lifting my dress over my stomach for Lucy to use the Doppler. We found twin one right away and Keiran was amazed before we moved onto twin two who usually liked to hide. Much to both our amazement twin 2 wasn't hiding today and we got the heartbeat pretty quickly. I booked my glucose test for 28 weeks and said goodbye before we headed to the baby store to look for prams and car seats.

Redshirt: The Journey
Freedom and Order. Peace and War. Love and Hate. Hundreds of young children awaken in a damaged world, on the brink of societal collapse, witnessing the birth of an omnipotent system. Their roles are pre-determined, yet the very fabric of reality lie in their hands. The order of the world shapes them, just how they are free to shape the world in their disparate visions. Each choice, each action, each word, has consequences that reach far beyond their perception. Freedom or Order; ashes in the wind, or the gilded chains. Updates at least every Monday, Thursday, and every other Sarturday, (from 26/11/2021). This is primarily a story exploring what it means to be human, using a lens of a hopefully real-feeling fantasy world. This story is not a power fantasy or a traditional Litrpg , while it has elements of these genres, it will focus on how these tropes would influence real people and possibly Redshirt will break some of these tropes along the way. There will be a variety of different characters and perspectives, some you hate, some you love, and some that will frustrate. Just as all people do. I don't believe there will be anything overly traumatic or explicit, but it's better to be safe than sorry. There will be some heavy topics explored, the characters views do not reflect the authors; however, if there is an issue in how I present/understand these issues please do tell me, and I will try my best to rectify it.
