INGA MEETS BEN

“Inga,” Mara said, turning her head to regard her from her position, just sitting up in the hospital bed. “I’m so glad you’re here.”
“Oh, I couldn’t wait any longer!” Inga bustled into the room and kissed Mara on the cheek. “How are you?” She nodded at Princess Leia and Han Solo, who had also come to visit.
Mara’s smile was radiant and Inga couldn’t help but smile widely back. Even with the dark circles from lack of sleep under her eyes, the former Empress had never looked more beautiful.
“I’m doing great. We’ll get out of here tomorrow and then I’ll be even better.” She inclined her head to the corner of the room where Luke was busy over the bassinette. “Diaper duty. I’ve trained him well.”
“Still your Consort.” Inga winked, and Han Solo laughed. But she wasn’t really paying attention to him now, because she could see the movement of the baby when Luke shifted sides, grabbing a diaper from under the bassinette. She moved forward and stood at Luke’s side, looking down into the portable bed.
And there he was. After months of anticipation… Inga’s eyes filled with tears. “He’s beautiful.” She reached in and ran a finger down the satiny smoothness of his baby cheek. He was small and still somewhat squished from birth, but his eyes were the same blue as his father’s, and he had his mother’s hair.
Luke grinned. “Thank you.”
But she had eyes and ears only for the little one, who mewled lightly in discomfort as he waited for his diaper. “May I?” she asked, not wanting to intrude, but wanting to spend some time with the baby.
Luke smiled and handed over the diaper. “Please. I’m still not sure of what I’m doing.”
“Really?” Han grinned over at them. “Even I knew how to put on a diaper, Kid.”
Leia rolled her eyes. “Adult diapers don’t count.”
Mara laughed. “She’s got you there, Han…”
“Yeah, yeah…” But Han was grinning.
Inga just shook her head and turned her attention back to her boy. She took the diaper from Luke and put it on expertly. She then wrapped him tightly in his blanket and picked him up to hold. “You are a miracle, Ben Skywalker,” she whispered into his baby ear. She looked up and grinned at the audience watching her before looking back down at the miracle in her arms. “I have to say, baby Ben, that my first meeting with you was much like my first meeting with your father: both of you wide-eyed, naked and confused.”
Luke blushed.
Behind him Han, Leia, and Mara laughed.
