“Well then, your question is answered.” Karim grinned as he met up with his brother at the entrance.
Kamil held Gabby in his arms, while Taylor had Sage. Noah was standing by there side, not surprisingly wide awake and looking everywhere. The boy opened the door for all of the parents whose hands were full with the younger kids. Taylor, Kamil, and Karim gave the eight-year-old...

“I don’t know Allie, are you getting too old?” Karim questioned, “You should feel the same way I do seeing as we’re currently the same age.”
Allison shook her head with her nose wrinkled slightly. “Nooo,” she then smiled.

Karim raised an eyebrow, “You do realize that if I’m getting old, you are too…right?” he laughed as he caught sight of his brother and his family ahead of him.
“No, I’m still 25,” she said sarcastically.
“I’ll always be five months younger than you, Darling. You’re getting older quicker than I am. The question is, are you getting too old...

Karim opened Alliyah’s side and unbuckled her seat belt. “Alright Little Love, we’re going to move a bit.” he said as he guided the groggy girl out of the car and picked her up.
“This might be your last year getting picked up.” he chuckled as he adjusted her so she was comfortable. “Alright, I think we’re ready.” Karim said, shutting the car door.
“Now, is that because...

“I’ve got her.” Karim said as he unbuckled his seat belt.
Allison nodded and followed his lead, “Alright, then.” Once she shut the car off, unbuckled herself, and got out of the car, she put the keys in her bag and switched side with Karim to get to Kamal.
“‘Mal …” she set her hand on his shoulder and rubbed his shoulder with her thumb to...

“Well she’s younger than them, and they would only get to see her during breaks from Hogwarts…I’m sure they would get along, but by the time she’s old enough to actually interact with them they’ll be off to Hogwarts or feel as though they’re ‘too old’ to play with her. Kellan’s the closest to her in age, they might have some sort of bond, I guess.”
“Maybe,” she...

karim-thomas:
“Either that or just really nervous,” He joked, “How the kids will take to Maina?”
“No in between,” she smiled.
“Yeah, how the kids will take to Maina. As in, Alliyah and Gabby don’t get on extremelywell, but Noah and Kamal are like best friends.”

karim-thomas:
“No, Love, no one had a video camera, sorry.” Karim chuckled, shaking his head. “And this is my sister’s first kid, of course I want to pace, I got nervous about Taylor and Isaac also. I know the first kid is usually the hardest.”
“It’s just cute,” she shrugged and laughed faintly once more. “It was even with Taylor. You’re just really … for lack of better word at the moment -...

karim-thomas:
“No, and of course you’d want such an embarrassing video.” Karim said, raising an eyebrow.
“Surprised,” she smiled. “I was almost sure someone would have been taping everything and just hiding that footage. Ah well. I love you. How you’d want to be pacing with Vari is cute,” Allison laughed faintly and grinned.

“I couldn’t feel my legs so there was no pacing.” Karim laughed. “I don’t think I knew my left from my right…but that was only with Kamal, with Liyah I was a bit more relaxed, and with Kellan it was almost a walk in the park.”
Allison couldn’t help but laugh with him; trying to keep her volume down for the children in the backseat, however. “Did anyone tape you while...

karim-thomas:
“Since Little Love isn’t so little anymore, I’ll take her, and you take Kellan.” Karim said, “And that way I won’t pace a hole into the hospital floors.” he grinned.
Allison grinned back and shook her head lightly. “Deal. And did you do that when I was pregnant too?”

karim-thomas:
“I guess so, ” Karim chuckled, glancing back at the kids and noticing their heavy eyelids. “Who knows how long we’ll be, so I guess a nap is perfect for all of them right now.”
“Hopefully not it’s not very long. For Vari’s sake, of course. They probably won’t be the most comfortable on those waiting room chairs, but they look like they could fall asleep...

“Maybe, he was so quiet today.” Karim said, with a raised eyebrow, “Of course he could grow out of that.”
“He’s only a year and a half. I guess we can’t really determine much at the moment, hm? We can observe and compare, but like you said, he can grow out of things. Ah well, him taking a nap will help all of us, right?” Allison shrugged and laughed...

“Looks like it” Karim said, glancing back at his son.
“I have no idea what could have tired him out, he’s been quiet all day.”
Allison quickly looked through the rear view mirror of the car to notice Kellan’s head against his car seat, and his eyes drooping. She couldn’t help the left corner of her lips curl up, letting out a faint laugh. “Maybe it was...

Kamil, Taylor, and their kids went over to their car, Taylor buckling in the kids, while Kamil started up the car. Once everything was together they drove off towards the hospital.
Karim got Kellan situated and double checked to make sure Kamal and Alliyah were also safe. He then got into the passengers seat. “Alright, everyone’s ready.”
Allison started the car just as Karim was...

“Or else there would be a baby being born in our backyard.” Karim muttered as he rushed upstairs to get Kellan’s shoes.
Once he had shoes on the drowsy boy, he rushed back down the steps and and looked around. “Is everyone ready?” he questioned.
Both Kamal and Alliyah called out “Yes” as Allison held the front door open for everyone, grasping the car keys in her...

Karim and Kamil’s eyes widened at the same time and they both adjusted their half-asleep children in their arms as they stood up and got them into more comfortable positions so they wouldn’t be disturbed with all of the movement. Taylor immediately stood up and went to get Noah and Gabrielle.
“Aren’t they in the car?” Kamil questioned,raising an eyebrow.

Taylor nodded and opened her mouth to ask another question when the phone rang. “Wonder who that could be.” Karim questioned as he looked towards the house.
Allison glanced through to the playroom before picking up the phone. “Hello?”
“Allie? It’s Arun. Just wanted to call you all and tell you that it’s time!”
His voice sounded so calm...

“How’s work, Allie?” Taylor questioned her sister-in-law, after rolling her eyes at Karim.

“I hope my sons are nothing like me when they’re teenagers.” Karim grinned.
“I’m okay with the boys, I had a lot more restraint than you did anyway.” Kamil muttered.
“Shut up.” Karim shot at his brother, his grin never leaving his face.
“There are babies here you two.” Taylor said, shaking her head.

“That doesn’t make any sense Kamil.” Taylor laughed.
“No, I understand what he’s saying.” Karim said.
“You’re both a mess, and I fear for our daughters future relationships.” Taylor said, shaking her head.

The twins looked at each other, then their wives, “Nonexistent.”
“You don’t want your little girls to find love? That’s unfair.” Taylor said with a small smile and a raised eyebrow.
“Why are we even talking about them dating? They haven’t even hit the double digits yet.” Karim said, wrinkling his nose.
“Because we know what you’re going to say and it’s funny...

“Yes, but she’s our sister! We have a right to be worried.” Karim said.
“You two will be complete wrecks when your daughters get married and all of that.” Taylor laughed.
“I don’t even want to think about that.” Kamil muttered.
Allison laughed with Taylor, watching the twins in their worry. “How will your ideal boy be when you think about someone dating your daughters in...

Sage waved goodbye to her aunt and uncle, smiling widely as she did. Karim, Kamil and Taylor gave their final goodbyes.
“Any day now.” Taylor said as she watched her sister-in-law retreat.
“I hope she’ll be okay.” Karim said, adjusting Kellan on his lap.
“We just have to trust that she and Arun have everything together.” Kamil nodded.
“She’s going to be fine, this is Shavari...

“We’ll have the little ones around for a while, at least.” Karim said with a smile.
The twins looked to their sister at the same time. “Be careful you two.” Karim said.
“And call us as soon as something happens.” Kamil nodded.

Karim thought for a second, “Like us? At what age?” he questioned.
“Yes, because they could date someone like us at say…age 13, but age 16 or something like that, no way.” Kamil said, shaking his head.
Allison laughed and said sarcastically, “What ever could have been wrong with you two at 16 years old?”
