"Open my gift next!" Joana squeals. It was late at night and me and Ahk had our baby shower a week after we both got married. We decided that we wanted to celebrate in the museum, especially since the museum was like my second home. Of course since Ahk became a part of my family, I gained permission from Larry to tell my other family members about me and Ahk's past as well as what goes on at the museum at night. They all promised to keep their mouths shut, but I wonder how long that'll last. But who would believe them if they told someone that a museum comes to life, right?

I open up the small gift that Joana bought for the baby. It was a jewelry box. I look at her confused before opening it. Inside was a golden bracelet. I soon realized that it was a friendship bracelet that Joana gave to me in our old life. And now she's regifting it to me to give to the baby.

I look at Joana with tears filling my eyes. "Thank you," I say as I hug her.

"Anything for my bestie," she responds. I softly laugh as I hand the bracelet to Ahk so that he can see it.

"Who's next?" I say.

Larry raises his hand before grabbing a bag from the ground. He walks over to Ahk and gives it to him. Ahk removes the tissue paper from the bag before lifting up what was in the bag. At first all I could see was gold, but then I realized that it was his tablet.

"Larry why are you giving this to me?" Ahk asks.

"You're the rightful owner of that tablet, Ahk. The tablet needs to stay with you."

Ahk was completely speechless and couldn't say anything, so I spoke up and said what was on my mind.

"But the museum won't come to life unless we come back here with the tablet."

"Well...it'll just make things easier around here."

"And boring."

Ahk finally responds to Larry. "Larry this means a lot to me, but I don't want to take this away from any of you. Because of Sanura, I'm able to live again. And because of me, the museum gets to experience some part of life. What kind of pharaoh would I be if I took something special away from my people?"

Larry looks at us without saying a word.

"This is our gift to you," I say as take the tablet and give it to Larry. He looks at it and smiles.

"Thank you," Larry says.

Me and Ahk nod.

"Hey where's my gift? You still owe me!" Marissa says.

Everyone erupts in laughter. I suddenly stop laughing. I try to ignore what just happened to me, but it was too hard to pretend like it didn't happen. Ahk fades out his laugh once he notices that I stopped laughing and wasn't looking too happy.

"My love, are you ok?" he asks.

The room falls silent and everyone looks at me, wondering what was wrong.

"How ironic that my water broke at the baby shower, right?"
