NBGH, Labor and Delivery
Nurse, Delivering mom, her sister, and their parents (Dad and Mom)
Nurse: Do you know what you're having?
Sister: No, I wanted to keep it a surprise.
Nurse: Oh, how sweet! What do you have picked out for names?
Sister: Liam Patrick if it's a boy, Josephine Catherine if it's a girl.
Nurse: Nice names! Does anyone want to call it?
KS: Girl!
Dad: It doesn't matter, as long as he or she is healthy.
Mom: I feel the same way.
Quiet while Nurse checks monitors.
Dad: Though it could be a hermaphrodite.
Mom: Tom!
KS laughs. Delivering mom, hopped up on drugs, smiles and rolls her eyes. Nurse keeps eyes on the charts.
KS fakes serious expression while trying not to choke on laughter.
KS: But sis, you haven't thought of any names if it's a hermaphrodite!
Dad: Hermie?
She's a beautiful, healthy girl.
Feels good to be back! Happy New year!
