"Oh my god...I think the baby's coming."
In an instance, the silence broke into chaos as everyone jumped to their feet.
"Wait. NOW?" Gregory shouted, half-rising from his seat.
"The baby is coming now?" Henry moved with the speed of light to where the couple was seated.
"Are you sure?" Sarah cried, eyes wide with panic.
"I thought she wasn't due until three days," Stacey said, rushing to her bestie's side.
"Quickly... Someone get Dr Vanessa to set up." Maria's voice snapped like a whip as she squatted beside Amelia.
"Okay, mum." Henry bolted for the door while dialling the doctor's number.
"Princess..."
"Gregory, move aside and let the women handle this." Vera snapped impatiently at him as she took her place beside Maria to examine Amelia.
Gregory and the other men moved aside, catering for the children while all the women hovered around, ready to lend a helping hand.
