The countdown to parenthood is on for Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner, but while they are patiently waiting for their baby to be born, Joe agreed to sit down with me and talk. Cause without talking, the sitting together part would’ve been awkward.
Bea: Thanks for doing this with me, Joe.
Joe: It’s my pleasure.
Bea: How are you?
Joe: I’m pretty good. Things have been good lately….
Bea: I mean, you have an above-average face and you smell okay… I’d be surprised if you weren’t good.
Joe: That’s fair.
Bea: How’s Sophie? I heard that she’s close to her due date.
Joe: She is… we should be meeting the little one any day now…
Bea: Awww, I wish I could be there when they pull it out.
Joe: What?
Bea: You know…. That moment when the mom is almost done pushing…. and the doctor helps to pull the baby out…. and then it starts to cry… and everyone gets teary-eyed.
Joe: I think that’d be weird…
Bea: Well, I’m not saying that I—Anyway, how are you feeling? In a nutshell. Don’t go on and on about it…
Joe: Uff…. I’m a mess. I’m excited, but I’m also pretty nervous.
Bea: You’re sweet… you have nothing to be nervous about! It’s your wife who has to have her lady parts ripped. You’ll just have to stand there.
Joe: I might not even be allowed to be in the room with her…. because of covid.
Bea: Even better. You can go get ice cream while your wife screams with unimaginable pain. I’ve heard women in labor get pretty loud.
Joe: [Silence]
Bea: Or you can visit your own mother and thank her for pushing you out of her body… you have a big head, can’t imagine it was anything but traumatic.
Joe: I’ll just stay in the waiting room…
Bea: That’s a good option too.
Joe: [Silence]
Bea: Last time we talked you mentioned you hadn’t chosen a name yet…
Joe: We have a name now.
Bea: Are you sure? Cause I brought a list with good suggestions…. like “Quarantina Jonas” or “Mykorona”…
Joe: Seriously… we are good.
Bea: I’ll give you the list anyway… just in case you want a good gender-neutral or pandemic related name for your baby.
Joe: [Silence]
Bea: Well….. it was great to see you again…. and listen, if you get bored in the waiting room, call me. If I’m not busy, I might pick up.
