Without a serious sign as to what happened to her twin friends, Nicole carried on. She took out her frustration with gymnastics. She worked harder, she had to keep her mind off of things.
Her period, however, hadn't come the week after her visit to Mel's house. This wasn't the end of the world, Nicole hadn't had hers for long, and it was pretty normal to be irregular for the first couple years, so she didn't pay it much mind.
A few weeks after that, though, the nausea started. "I must be coming down with a bug," she thought to herself, as she stayed home sick for the day.
Lisa had heard Nicole vomiting in the bathroom and came in that night to talk to her about what she had seen when she had searched for the two tinies weeks ago.
"So, uh, you said you were studying the reproductive system, right?" Lisa asked.
Nicole nodded, thinking back to that night.
"Okay, so in science class a few grades later, they teach you about this," she said, laying down one of her textbooks in front of Nicole. Instead of just going over the reproductive system itself like Nicole's book did, Lisa's went over pregnancy. Fertilization, implantation and pregnan. She pulled out her phone and flipped through some pictures.
With a whisper, Lisa said to Nicole, "So that morning when I searched for the tiny twins, I didn't find them. But I did find these," showing her a picture of each of the two implanted embryos. It hadn't taken Lisa long to figure out exactly where the two were, she just didn't want to throw Nicole under the proverbial bus.
Nicole's eyes went wide as she raised the midriff of her shirt and looked over her still-flat belly, "So you mean theyr'e still..."
Lisa simply nodded, "I think so," and rocked her in a big, caring hug.
