Rochelle waited to see what GenShi got before ripping open her own present next, which was a much bigger box than GenShi's first present. She opened it up to find a picture of a baby swing on the box. "Oh my god. Nice!" she exclaimed, a grin finally appearing on her face after what seemed like an hour or so. "Thanks, mom." she smiled to Tori, who just simply nodded in return.
After the rest of the presents were out of the way, Tori returned to the kitchen to check on the rest of dinner before making an announcement that it was ready. With Elisabeth and Bayne volunteering to help bring out the food, plates and other utensils to the bigger tables, it was time to feed the guests. "Finally! I'm starving!" Caden shouted first, racing over to the table so as to be first in line. "Hey Cade, leave some food for the rest of us why don't you?" Bayne called out to his brother while he was helping his fiance waddle her way to the food. Jayson was next in line, as he pulled Kasem along behind him to be one of the first people to get their plates filled up. The rest of them took their time, not really in any hurry to push people over like Caden was.
"Hey, mom. Where's Eric? Normally he's with Caden scarfing down his food." Beverly asked, after looking around the place just realizing that her twin was nowhere to be found. "He apparently snuck out to go to the beach with Batari..." Tori answered, not really phased by what Eric did. She figured one of her children was bound to sneak away from the party somehow, anyway.

GenShi made sure to give her mom and aunt a hug after she got up to head towards the food, giving them a big thank you. Then she caught up to Bayne again, holding a plate excitedly. "Tori, you and Elisabeth always make such great food, I can't wait to try it all!" She praised, loving even the appearance of the food. Even her baby boy was kicking excitedly. She giggled, taking a hand off the plate and putting it on her stomach. "Even the baby's hungry." She joked.
Kasem followed closely behind Jayson, smiling as he saw the food. "Yay! I'm so hungry!" He said excitedly. His eyes were focused on the desserts at the end of the table, but his mom seemed to be on to him. "Kasem.." She began, but noticed Thongchai was doing the same thing as his brother. "Thongchai, you two have to have two vegetables or no dessert." She warned them, and they both sighed and mumbled a "fine" in unison.
JiSeok helped Rochelle get to the table, deciding he felt like one-upping Bayne. "Have a seat, Rochelle. I can get you what you want." He offered her with a smirk, as if telling her play along.

Tori beamed proudly at GenShi's comment. "Thank you, GenShi. And I'm sure the baby is hungry, too. Make sure to feed him some healthy vegetables, now." she giggled, finishing off her own plate of food before heading back to sit with the other mom's.
"Here, Gen. You think the baby'll like this?" Bayne asked, holding up a carrot stick with ranch dressing up to GenShi's mouth, urging her to take at least a small bite of it. He seemed to have noticed JiSeok trying to one-up him by getting Rochelle's plate as well as his own, and decided to play along in his little game.
Rochelle had just gotten up, but when she was told to sit back down, she wanted to protest but immediately saw that look on her fiance's face, and smirked in return instead. She nodded back to him and slid back in her seat on the couch. "Just be sure to get me something good. This baby's kicking up a storm from the hunger." she told him, shooing him off to the food tables.

"Of course!" GenShi told Tori before smiling to Bayne and taking the entire carrot stick from him. "mm~" She hummed as she ate it. "I think he'll like it." She told Bayne with a small giggle once she had finished the carrot.
JiSeok muttered an "of course" before grabbing a plate for Rochelle and holding up random food stuffs for her confirmation before putting them on the plate. He picked up a small lettuce wrap and brought it to her, holding it out for her to eat like Bayne had done for GenShi.
Bethany rolled her eyes and nudged Tori and Jina, giggling a little as she pointed to JiSeok. Jina sighed as she realized what was going on, "That boy..." She muttered under her breath.

Bayne grinned wider himself at GenShi's response. "I think I'll grab a few more then. Baby's gotta stay healthy, right?" he chuckled, grabbing a few more carrots plus cut up apples and strawberries. "And then he'll have to have some dessert later, of course." he added in.
Rochelle looked over at JiSeok repeatedly making sure he was picking the foods that she liked and preferred according to her current state of mood. She looked down to check her phone for the time, and looked back up to find a piece of food stuck in her face by her fiance. "Whoa..." she flinched, taking a bite out of it eventually before realizing that JiSeok was only doing that to one up her brother even more. "Baby, why are you doing this?" she couldn't help but ask, finishing up the bite he held in his hand.
Tori looked over to where Bethany was pointing to, and shook her head with a small chuckle. "And of course...Rochelle is going along with it. Anything to get attention, I swear..." she shook her head again.

GenShi smiled and chuckled, "I love strawberries, make sure to get a lot." She told her fiancee lightly, grabbing a couple things herself and munching on them.
JiSeok frowned as Rochelle asked him a question. "What, you don't like it?" He asked her, tilting his head to the side. "For fun, I guess... Cause I want to take care of you? Is that really a bad thing?" He asked her, munching on the rest of the wrap.
Jina chuckled, "I know, they're ridiculous." She muttered with an amused grin.

"Will do, boss." Bayne said, grabbing an extra handful of strawberries as well as a few chips to add something salty to the meal. He only grabbed a simple hamburger and chips for his own plate. He figured with the amount of strawberries he got GenShi, he could manage stealing a few.
"No, I like it. It's just..." she looked over to where her brother and fiance were now, understand what was going on completely now. "Babe, you don't have to one-up my brother. Or even copy whatever the hell he's doing to GenShi. You hear me?" Rochelle tried explaining to her fiance, hoping he understood what she was saying. "Trust me, I'm more than ecstatic that you're taking care of me and all that...but don't be just like Bayne. One Bayne is enough as it is..." she added in, grabbing another lettuce wrap from the plate and sticking it in her mouth.
After everyone had their food and were all seated back down, Tori brought up a new conversation for most of everyone could have. "So...any names you guys have thought about yet?" Bayne had his mouth full of hamburger when his mother asked, and quickly swallowed before answering, "Um...well we have been talking about it...don't think we've agreed on one name yet though." "If you barely decided on a name, then what makes you think we decided upon even five names?" Rochelle scoffed. "I have no idea what sort of names to think of for this baby."

JiSeok smiled, muttering a "fine" as he finished putting things on Rochelle's plate and then placing it in front of her. GenShi nodded in agreement with Bayne, happily munching on a strawberry, then had to stop from laughing at what Rochelle said. "I think what she means is we trust the name will come to us when we see them." GenShi sugar-coated. JiSeok looked over to Rochelle curiously, absent-mindedly munching on a chip. "What about a Korean name?" He suggested to her.

Rochelle leaned over to kiss JiSeok on the lips before going back to her plate, listening in to the conversation some more. "That's not what I mean....Stop sugar coating everything, Gen!" Bayne teased his fiance, nudging her playfully and all. He stole a piece of strawberry from her plate before starting on his own plate next. Rochelle rolled her eyes at her brother and turned back to JiSeok. "A Korean name would probably be best actually. Considering its more common for an asian baby to come out rather than an american looking one...." she explained with a shrug, grabbing a bite of celery next. "You'd be better with those names though...I suck at american names as it is..." she added in.

GenShi giggled, snatching the strawberry from Bayne playfully, "You can't nudge me then steal a strawberry! Have some class!" She teased him playfully, nudging him back as she ate the rest of the stolen strawberry. JiSeok smirked as he got kissed, "Well, we're having a girl, right?" He muttered, seeming to be thinking out loud. His mind was reeling as he tried to think of names he wanted to avoid (SeYeon was such a bitch, he thought to himself, referring to a girl he knew in his orphanage.) and names he could better tolerate.

Bayne only laughed along with his fiance, playing along. "Whaaat? I can't help it...don't you know me by now? Playing games is what I do." he teased once again, picking at his own plate this time. Rochelle nodded. "Yuuup. It's definitely a girl alright." she waited a little, watching him as he thought about the different name choices that were possibly going on in his head. "So...whatcha thinking? Any good name choices out there?"

GenShi chuckled. "I know~" She replied, munching on her strawberries before Bayne stole them all. "But maybe we should start considering some names..." She seemed to think out loud. "After all, he's coming in only three months..." She said with a smile, rubbing her stomach. JiSeok shook his head, biting his lip. "I can only think of names that would drive me crazy." He admitted with a small laugh. He looked to his mother, and Jina feigned a look of surprise at the suggestion he wanted her help. "You know... I've always liked the name ChoHee." Jina suggested, deciding to conveniently "forget" to mention it was one of the Kavi had been considering with his own daughter. JiSeok looked at her skeptically, but then seriously considered it. "Like beautiful and joy?" He asked his mother, who simply nodded. "What do you think? ChoHee Choi." He said, seeming a bit disappointed he liked the name.

"Maybe we should..." Bayne said, thinking a little before coming up with his first idea. "Why not name him Bayne Jr. His nickname could be B.J. or something." he grinned. "B.J. Black? How's that sound to you?" he chuckled again. "So I see." Rochelle laughed at her fiance, grabbing another bite of her food before looking over to Jina hearing her suggestion next. "ChoHee?" she repeated, trying out the name herself. "ChoHee Choi. Sounds like a "Ch" sounds, but I kind of like it in a weird way..." she finished, smiling back at JiSeok, and placed her hand on her large belly, rubbing it gently. "I do like it, actually." And then she felt a kick. "Ah~ I guess this girl likes it too, huh?" she laughed softly, rubbing her belly where she felt the subtle kick. "Well, I think we made up our decision. Better hurry up with your choice, bro." she told Bayne with a smirk crossing her lips.

GenShi hid herself in a fit of giggles as Bayne suggested the name, looking to her mother who knew all too well what a name like that could signify. "Bayne, why don't you uh... think about that nickname a little more?" She suggested. Suddenly, she thought of a good name. "Oh! I've always liked the name Devon, but maybe switching the spelling of it?" She suggested. JiSeok looked over to Rochelle as she mentioned ChoHee was kicking. "Well then, ChoHee it is." He told her with a smile, one hand reaching over to feel his daughter kicking.

Bayne chuckled, giving it another thought. "Oh...well then, we can't have that then, can we?" he laughed a bit louder. "Devon sounds good though. I feel like his middle name should start with a J though. I like cool two letter nicknames...even if I don't have one myself...mom!" he hinted, looking over to Tori with a sudden smirk on his face. "What?? I chose what I liked...not what you liked." Tori teased right back at him. "I like the name Devon though, GenShi. What spelling were you thinking of using anyway?"
Rochelle gave a slightly wider smile to her fiance, moving his hand over where hers was, as she felt a few more kicks come up from ChoHee. You could tell, cause Rochelle was making a few squinting faces, scrunching up her nose and all. "Okay...now its just starting to hurt. Stop it, ChoHee!" she yelled at her stomach, suddenly finding her head to be on JiSeok's shoulder now, feeling exhausted.
