"PUSH!" The doctor orders and Halona does as he says.
The room consists of a woman giving birth, her husband Laron, and their other kids: Paris, Patrick, and Caleb.
With just a curtain dividing the room, there is another couple on the other side that also consists of a woman going into labor, named Julia, and her husband, Terrence.
Earlier, while Halona was having major contractions, a nurse rushed into her room in somewhat of a panic.
"Mrs. and Mr. Christopher, if you don't mind, we need to split this room in half. There is another couple and the woman is going into labor. Can they share this room with you?" The nurse asks.
Despite the pain Halona was experiencing, she said yes right away.
That brings us to the present situation.
"I think this is the last push!" The doctor announces.
The doctor was exactly right. After that push, Holana successfully delivers a healthy baby boy.
"What do you want to name him?" The nurse asks.
"Joshua. Joshua Christopher." Holana responds.
"Doctor! The baby is sliding out!" Julia calls from the other side of the curtain.
He hurriedly rushes to the foot of Julia's bed.
"This baby is coming right now! Push!" The doctor demands, so Julia pushes.
With one push, Julia gives birth to a beautiful baby girl.
"What do you want to name your baby girl?" A nurse asks and Julia smiles.
"Raegan Renée Torres." Julia states.
"Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Torres for the beautiful baby girl." The doctor says as he washes his hands.
"Thanks doc!" Terrence replies.
Later that night, the Christopher kids go home with grandma Christopher. That leaves the two couples.
"Do either families mind if I open this curtain so that the babies can go in the middle of the room?" A nurse says and neither family minds.
The curtain draws back and both of the couples make eye contact.
"Hi, my name is Terrence Torres and this is my wife, Julia Torres." Terrence starts.
"Hey, I'm Laron Christopher and this is my wife Holana Christopher." Laron says.
And with that introduction, marks a life long friendship not only between the two couples, but the babies as well.
