The two sisters tilted their heads and thought for a moment, realizing that their mother was right! Xu Li gave a thumbs up from the side, saying, "That makes sense." Natasha chuckled and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. The sisters didn't eat much vegetables, which wasn't a good sign. Just as she was busy, Xu Li rushed over in a panic, exclaiming, "Mom, Eva is bleeding!"
That meant she was about to give birth. "Quick, get her to the hospital!" Natasha hurriedly took off her apron and started gathering things. Xu Li had already changed her shoes and was carrying the crying Eva out the door. The urgency made her mind race; she ran through the neighborhood holding Eva when an elderly lady sitting outside noticed and stopped her. "Xiao Qing, you can't just run like that! Call an ambulance!"
"I... I forgot my phone!" Xu Li looked down at the wailing Eva, her words tumbling out in a rush. An old man nearby pulled out his phone and helped her call for help. While they waited with Eva in his arms, Natasha came running up, breathless. "Misha! Misha! Anna just accidentally slipped off the sofa and her water broke!"
"What?" Xu Li quickly set Eva down. The elderly lady and the old men grabbed chairs to fan them while Xu Li dashed back inside. Upon entering, she saw Anna sitting on the floor, scared and crying, "Wow, I'm bleeding! Misha! Misha!"
"I'm here! I'm here!" She picked up Anna and rushed downstairs again. The elderly ladies looked on in surprise. The same old man expertly made another call: "Hello? We have another pregnant woman whose water just broke in our neighborhood—just like that one! Please hurry!"
The ambulance arrived shortly after. One of the old men ran over to help lift Anna, who had fallen. After about five minutes, another ambulance came to take Eva as well. Only then did Natasha return home to gather their things. She grabbed several bags and left the neighborhood, hailing a taxi. "Take me to Ba Yi Hospital."
"Ba Yi Hospital?" The driver looked confused but quickly realized what she meant. "Oh, you mean Ba Yi Hospital?"
"Yes, yes! Ba Yi Hospital!"
"Please take a seat."
The driver stepped on the gas and got Natasha to the hospital in less than four minutes. She pulled out the largest bill from Xu Li's wallet and handed it to him as she got out of the car. As she closed the door, she remembered to say, "Thank you!"
"Uh, I haven't given you change yet..."
Natasha didn't quite understand but carried her bags into the hospital while catching her breath. Running had been tough for her; she felt like she weighed as much as an old lady now. She gestured to a nurse until she finally found the delivery room and saw Xu Li pacing anxiously.
She plopped down on a chair, panting heavily as she asked, "Misha, has everyone gone in?"
"Yes, everyone is inside, Mom."
Xu Li was still spinning in circles.
