I arrived at Meg's work, a little earlier than planned. She clocked out and entered my car.

Meg and I both looked up at the screen to see, not one, but two babies. "Twins??" Yelled Meg, jubilantly.
I tried to grasp what I was looking at, and what was happening altogether. Then realization set in. "Oh sh- shoot."
