14 months later:
- "He's beautiful. Our baby is so beautiful."
Ellen: -"You're right, he's wonderful."
- "And to think that this miracle would not exist if that condom had
not been defective 9 months ago. You were right to convince me not
to sue the condom company: I should be grateful to them for this gift
they gave us."
Ellen: -"Honey, since you're so happy I think it's time for a confession:
9 months ago I was the one who broke the condom..."
- "You what?!?! Are you kidding?! Is it your fault that I experienced
for the third time 9 months of aches and pains?!"
Ellen: -"Yes, I'm sorry... but I couldn't give up on this new life of mine,
and seeing how you were gradually adapting to being a mother, a wife
and a housewife I hoped that with another 9 months I would convince
you to leave things as they are now."
- "You are crazy! Of course I adapted gradually, after more than two
years in a body that is not mine! What should I have done? With all
the hormones that went through me or I adapted to this life or I would
have gone mad! And obviously I was a good mom: I love our children!
But I would have taken care of them even being their father! Go and
get the medallion now! I want us to exchange bodies immediately,
without waiting for more months!"
Ellen: -"I can't do it. I don't want to do it. I'm too happy in this new
life. Now you're not lucid, you have to recover from the birth. Now
relax. When you get better, you will understand that it's better to stay
like this."
- "Give me the medallion. NOW."
Ellen: -"Shhh. Rest now. The medallion is in a safe place, where nobody,
not even you, will ever find it. We will talk about this matter in a few
months. Now I go, I will let you sleep..."
- "Ellen! Come back here! ELLEN!.. No, nurse, I feel great. Yes, I
know I am Ellen, obviously...No I don't need a sedative...Stop...Ellen...
damn you...Zzz...

very good
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it!
DeleteI did my best to adapt the story to multiple consecutive pregnancies. I hope it comes close to what you wanted :)
I wonder why Ellen didn't just throw the medallion away.
