A few minutes later . . .
Winston got them to Columbia University Medical Center in record time. The ER staff rushed Jake and Jessica away. Eddie stayed with the others in the reception area.
While the Kongs waited nervously for the doctor to enter their examining room, a male nurse recorded Jessica’s medical history and vital signs. He was a slight man, a full head shorter than Jessica, who was a head shorter than Jake herself, at least in heels. Now that she wore only flats, she came to just below his shoulder. The two of them towered over the poor guy, and he looked slightly unnerved by this.
The nurse had limp, mousy brown hair that was pulled back into a short ponytail. He smiled often, and seemed to leer at Jessica, making her a little uncomfortable. Jake’s eyes were on his wife only. Jessica frowned at him very deliberately. ‘He’s lucky Jake is so preoccupied,’ Jessica thought as the nurse leered at her breasts. ‘That kind of thing could get his ass kicked!’
When the doctor finally arrived, she asked Jessica to lie prone for an ultrasound. She elevated the head of the examining table to make Jessica more comfortable. The cool gel was smeared on her abdomen and the doctor began her examination.
Dr. Karen Barber was a petite, swarthy brunette who spoke with a distant Hispanic accent. The wedding set on her left hand said that she’d married into the name Barber. The doctor was a resident, no more tthirthirty years old, and had a very pleasant demeanor. She chattered away companionably with the Kongs while carefully examining Jessica’s abdomen and pelvis. Jake was impressed with her ability to keep up a constant flow of conversation while clearly concentrating on the small screen that displayed his unborn children, not unlike Egon concentrating on a PKE meter, by Ray’s account.
“Hmm.” Dr. Barber’s face suddenly took on a perplexed expression. “Could you turn onto your other side? Here let me help you.” She squeezed more of the gel onto Jessica’s side, extending her examination to include the profile of her distended belly. “Jessica, you said you were carrying twin girls, right?”
“Yes.” Suspicion dawned on the pregnant reporter. “Is something wrong with my daughters, doctor?” she pleaded.
“Not at all, unless of course you mean the fact that they’ll have to get used to having a brother.”
“WHAT!” the Kongs exclaimed simultaneously.
“That’s right. I see two girls and one little boy. The girls will be identical twins. We know because the sonogram we took earlier identified only two placentas, so the girls must be sharing one. Your son of course couldn’t come from the same egg as the girls, so he has to have his own separate fetal membranes.”
“That’s wonderful!” The male nurse congratulated them heartily. Jake and Jessica shrugged off his accolades, questioning Dr. Barber frantically. Jessica was, after all, at 35 weeks gestation. She’d gone to her prenatal checkups regularly. It was inconceivable that her own obstetrician had not picked up on the third fetus.
“Well, he’s hiding behind his sisters, who are quite a bit bigger than he is. I almost didn’t see him myself until he waved at me from behind his sister’s head.”
The nurse then mentioned that his shift was about to end, so he offered to tell the Kongs’ friends on his way out. Upon entering the waiting room, he was greeted by six very worried faces. He beamed ecstatically at them. “Hello all. My name is Sam. I’ve been assisting Dr. Barber, the physician attending to Mrs. Kong. She asked me to let you all know that she’s fine and that she’s going to have not twins, but triplets. We’re not sure why she had the discomfort just yet. Her blood pressure was a little elevated, but that could be nothing. Just in case though, we’ll give her something to lower it. A multiple pregnancy has some risks, but that doesn’t mean there’s a problem here. The discomfort could have just been the babies moving around a lot. Seems they’re already having sibling rivalry for mommy’s attention.”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Eddie asked if he could go see his friends. Sam assured him that they would be joining them soon, and that it would be better to just wait. He then turned to leave, sporting a very satisfied grin. Janine thought that his enthusiasm was a bit odd, but shrugged it off as New Yorker paranoia. ‘Still, I wouldn’t think an OB/GYN nurse in Manhattan would look that excited for any patient. Oh well. Maybe he’s just an overzealous Ray-type.’
In the hallway, the nurse headed for the payphone. He dropped a quarter into the coin slot then quickly punched in a number. A man answered. “Hello sir? I found it.” He awaited no reply before hanging up. He clocked out and left for home. Plans needed to be made.
