Prompts = Fetal, Companion, Fraternal
He didn’t know it was called a fetal heart monitor so he called it the “beep beep machine”. The nurse said that it beeped each time his soon-to-be-born little brother’s heart beat.
His parents had sat him down one day and told him about a new baby brother coming into the house. And something about a companion for life. He didn’t understand that part; his parents liked big words. But he did understand “home birth”.
Today was the day.
So he waited and listened. Much later, he heard something about “fraternal twins”. He’d have to ask later.
