Chapter 11
After breakfast, the nurses go upstairs to make the beds, gather the dirty clothes and straighten the boys' bedrooms. Leaving the boys downstairs to watch tv.
Austin was in charge of the remote, since his mind was a bit older than the others.
"Wookie." Avi giggles as he points at a gay couple kissing on a reality show that Austin stumbles across. "Day kithing." (lookie, they kissing)
"Men don't kith." Tim says as he stares confused at the television.
"Uh, huh." Austin nods. "Day do if day gay."
"Whad gay?" Chance asks. (what's)
"Ith when a man likes anudder man." Austin answers. (it's, another)
"Me like yall and Cwis. Are me gay?" Tim asks.
"No, thilly. You hab to kith em." Austin giggles.
"Me not kithing you." Tim says shaking his head, wrinkling his nose.
"Me nedder. Dat's yucky. Yuck." Avi says making a disgusting face shaking his head. (neither)
They gasp as a little girl came into the scene, calling the two men 'daddy'.
"Day had a baby?" Adam asks as he looks around at Austin with a shock look.
"How'd dat happen?" Austin asks. Even he couldn't explain that. "I didn't know men could get pwegnant."
"Whad pegnant?" Tim asks.
"Dat's pwegnant." Austin says as he points to the television.
The scene had changed to a straight couple and the woman was almost nine months pregnant.
"OH, MY GAWD!" Tim yells grabbing his stomach.
"NOOOOO!! I don't want to get pweganated." Avi starts to cry. (pregnant)
"How .. how do day get pwegnant?" Adam asks.
"Apawantwy, kithing." Chance says. "Does men had a baby." (apparently, kissing, those)
"OH, MY GAWD!" Tim screams out again. "Me kith my mommy bye-bye. Me pegnant." He starts to cry.
"Does dat mean we all pwegnant? We all kithed our mommies bye." Adam says with a frighten look.
"Not me." Austin says shaking his head. "I didn't kith nobody."
Jenika makes her way into the living room to see if the boys wanted a snack. Only to find four out of five of the boys in tears.
"What's going on in here?" She asks, automatically looking at Austin since he was the only one not crying.
"I didn't do nuttin." Austin says as he gives her an innocent look.
"Then why are they crying?" Jenika asks.
"ME NO NOT WANT BE PEGNANT!" Tim sobs loudly as he holds his stomach.
"What?" Jenika asks with a slight giggle.
"WE ALL PWEGENATED CAUSE WE KITHED OUR MOMMIES!!" Avi screams in tears.
"Uh, hold up, boys." Jenika says, holding up a finger. "OLENA? CHRIS?"
"YEAH?" They both yell from upstairs.
"CAN YOU TWO JOIN ME IN THE LIVING ROOM, PLEASE?" She yells up to them.
A few seconds later, Chris and Olena come jogging down the stairs.
"What's up?" Chris asks as they enter the living room.
"Why are they crying?" Olena asks.
"We .. We .. pweg .. pwegnant." Chance says between sobs.
"Pregnant?" Chris asks with a stunned look on his face.
"Uh huh." Tim nods. "We kithed our mommies and .. and now we pegnant."
The nurses share glances before looking down at Austin.
"I didn't do nuttin." Austin repeats.
"Okay, Austin. You mind telling us what happened down here?" Olena asks as she sat down beside him.
"Okay." Austin huffs. "I was twying to pind Pong Bob (Sponge Bob) and dare was two guys on da tb that was kithing. Den a wittle girl came in and called dem daddy. So we taught dat maybe one of da guys got pwegnant becath dey kithed."
Olena bites her bottom lip to keep from giggling.
"Oh, dear Lord." Chris says softly as he hangs his head.
Jenika turns her back to keep them from seeing her laugh.
They knew they had a problem but had to get out the giggles from the silliness of the situation.
Jenika takes a deep breath to calm herself. She wipes the tears from her eyes before turning around.
"So that's why you boys think you are pregnant because you kissed your mommies." Jenika says.
"I don't want to be pwegnant, Cwis." Adam says with tears running down his cheeks.
"Me needer." Avi says, wiping his nose.
"Okay. Boys listen to me." Chris smiles as he sits down beside his younger brother, taking him by the hand. "You boys are definitely not pregnant. First of all, guys don't get pregnant, normally. (he mumbles the last word) Second, you do not get pregnant just by kissing someone."
"Well, how did does two guys hab a baby?" Austin asks.
"Probably through an orphanage." Olena answers. "Do you know what that is?"
"I tank so." Austin nods. "It a pace wit kids dat nobody wants?"
"Yeah, kinda. Then someone who really wants a baby and can't have one themselves go and adopt one. And they can take them and love them and raise them as their own." Olena smiles as she brushes back Austin's hair.
"Dat makes sense." Austin nods. "Tho does two guys adapted a wittle girl?" (so, those)
"Adopted." Olena nods.
"We no pegnant?" Tim asks.
"No, Timmy Baby, you're not pregnant." Jenika smiles as she sits down beside him and wipes his tears.
"Whew! Dats a weleap." Avi says wiping his forehead. (relief)
"But, ip kithing don't get someone pwegnant, whad does?" Austin asks.
The nurses once again look at each other.
"We'll tell you when you get older." Chris answers, quickly grabbing the remote. "How bout some cartoons?"
"And some snacks." Jenika says as she jumps up and heads to the kitchen.
"I'll help." Olena says as she follows her.
"That was close." Jenika giggles as she and Olena begins to grab some snacks.
"Too close." Olena says as she shakes her head.
A few minutes later, Chris joins them in the kitchen.
"You know, I think we should let the guys put up the Christmas tree today. Christmas is just a few weeks away. Anyone have any ideas what to get the boys?" Chris asks.
"Well, we could get them several small gifts. They all like to color and play with cars. And then we could get them one main gift." Olena says.
"That sounds good." Chris nods. "I know Adam and Chance love to play video games. Neither of them owns an Xbox."
"Austin loves watching hunting and fishing shows. They have games for that. Maybe get him one too. They're all in different rooms so that would work." Olena says.
"Okay, so that leaves Avi and Timmy." Chris says. "Avi gets excited about anything."
"Oh, I know. We were in a store the other day and he started playing with one of those virtual reality headsets and he loved it." Olena says.
"I'd even play with that." Chris laughs. "Jenika? You're awfully quite. Are you thinking of what we can get Tim? You're around him the most."
"I think I know but I'd have to talk to Rob and Dena first." Jenika says.
"Really? Okay, what do you have in mind?" Chris asks.
"Something that would make him happier than anything." Jenika smiles. "His dog, Satchmo."
