"Oh, you're still here... you're not going to work?"I turned around when I heard Eugene's voice and the bedroom door closing. I give him a friendly smile. "I need to go to the hospital; Gail is about to give birth, and I need to monitor her," I said, placing the food I had prepared for Gail.Gail is the woman who is carrying Eugene's child. I've been with her since Eugene and I decided to take care of the child. The two are still not talking and they haven't seen each other since their encounter at the Company. I'm not sure if Eugene is still angry at Gail, everytime I tried to make him come with me to visit Gail he always makes a alibi so he can't go with me. Maybe he still can't accept Gail's decision and he's not ready to face her yet. I just kept quiet and do what I can to help them, specialty Gail who's now in the Hospital.I'm not sure if Eugene is still angry at Gail, but every time I try to convince him to accompany me to visit Gail, he always comes up with an excuse why he
"Go, one more push... I can already see the baby's head; one last push in the count of three. One, two, three push!"Gail gave her all in that final push, and the next thing we know, the baby's cries fill the entire room."Ungahhh!""You did it, Gail!" I whisper, tears streaming down on my cheeks."I'm so proud of you, Gail... good job," my lips tremble in relief and joy. Eugene suddenly entered the room, his gaze instantly fixed on the small body in front of him."Congratulations! It's a healthy Baby Boy!" the doctor announced. I left Gail for a moment to approach Eugene, who hadn't taken his gaze away from the baby that the nurses were cleaning."Hey," I say, trying to get his attention."Hmm?" he replied, my brow furrowed as I heard his raspy voice, and I noticed his teary eyes when I looked at him.I wiped my own tears away. I, too, am relieved to finally meet a healthy and safe baby.I also look at the baby and observe how they clean him.Looking at the little angel in front
"All I want for him is for him to be happy, and I know that will definitely happen because you are with them; knowing that makes me happy to die peacefully because I know my boys are in good hands, and I know you will love them as if they were your own," she said in a low voice, and I can hear how she is suffering just to say those words to me.I took a deep breath and wiped away my tears before facing her again. I looked her in the eyes, which were clouded with tears. When I saw her cry, I couldn't stop myself from crying again. Just by looking at her, I could see and feel her pain, and I knew she didn't want to die and leave Eugene and their children behind. Every step I took towards the bed where she was lying felt so heavy. When I finally reached her, I instantly held her hand and gently squeezed it before giving her a slight smile."Gail, don't say that. No one can defeat your love for them, no one can match the sacrifices you made just to bring your children into this world; ev
We tried to locate Gail's relatives after Eugene said his goodbyes to her. But, according to what we found, Gail had not communicated with any of her relatives in a long time. We also had no idea where to look for them, so Eugene decided to hold a small and private funeral for Gail.I walked over to Gail's coffin and placed the white flower I was holding. I smiled when I saw her resting peacefully; she seems to be happy and satisfied right now... When a light breeze blows against my skin, I close my eyes and feel it... It's a very soothing wind, like a goodbye hug from her."Goodbye Gail, even though we've only been together for a short time, I won't forget you; don't worry okay? I'll look after them." I said for the last time. ----Things happened so quickly, and now we're in the Baby ward, where Eugene's two baby boys are. I rubbed his back as he began to cry, holding the glass and looking at the twins steadily. I looked up, wiped away my tears, and asked the nurse if we could see
When we arrive at the unit, it's almost twelve o'clock. We didn't want to be away from the kids for too long, so we waited until visiting hours were over before heading to the office. Eugene needed to sign some important documents so he wouldn't have to go to work the next day. Finally, the twins will be released tomorrow."You should get some rest, Eugene," I said as I tapped him on the back. "I'll just prepare everything we need to bring tomorrow and then go to bed," I said as I approached the twins' bedroom door.Because we were unaware that they were twins, the clothes I brought to the hospital were insufficient. Everything was only meant for one person. It's a good thing that the clothes I ordered last night arrived today so the twins can wear a matchy outfit tomorrow. "Let me do it, I know you're tired." he offered worriedly, I just shook my head trying to fight the drowsiness.I pushed his arms away when he began shaking my shoulders and gently pushing me into the room."But I
"Are you nervous?" I asked, pointing to his ear."Why should I be nervous?" he grumbled as he pulled into the hospital parking lot."You're blushing, which is why I'm asking if I ever make your heart flutter because I said I wouldn't leave you," I teased him further. When he properly parked the car, I laughed and unbuckled my seatbelt."Don't tease me too much because I might fall for you,"When I didn't hear what Eugene said, I quickly turned to him, but he hurried out of the car.I quickly got out and went to the back of the car, where he was. What did he say? I haven't heard much."Hey! What did you say earlier? I didn't hear you," I asked as I assisted him in lifting the baby basket into which the twins would be placed later."No, it's your fault you're beautiful but didn't clean your ears," he teased as he pinched my nose.He walked away, closing the compartment. I quickly followed him.When we arrived at the nurse station, a lady nurse approached Eugene right away."Hi Sir, may
I got up on the bed when I heard the baby crying; I didn't know who he was at first, so I just picked him up and tried to make him stop crying. Later, I realized it was Loki who was crying."Why is the baby crying?" I asked, swaying my body slowly.When Eugene returned to my room, he looked at us with worry. He started to walk closer to us to check on Loki, but Thor's loud cry startled him, and he dashed to the other crib."Hey... what happened, hm? Daddy is here," he said sweetly as he carefully lifted Thor."We'll need to clean their bodies later so they can sleep comfortably," I said, noticing the twins' loaded diapers.He approached me while holding Thor in his arms. We're now facing each other, holding the twins. I smiled when I noticed he couldn't take his eyes off Loki. He can't decide who is going to look first."I think they're starving," Eugene stated. While still holding Loki in my arms, I nodded and walked over to the milk formula and bottle on the other side of the bed.H
"I forgot to tell you that we don't have to go to work for a week," my brow furrowed."What do you mean? Is that all right?" I asked, and he shrugged."I'm the Boss, Laura. I can do whatever I want," he said trying to be arrogantly, I just laugh at his face. "OK, Sir," I said quietly as I stared at him, but Eugene just laughed and finished his coffee."And there's an agency that can help us with the babysitter," he said, which surprised me.When did he do that, exactly?"That's really quick, but please make sure they can be trusted.""That's why we've taken a week off work. The two helpers will arrive later at lunch, we'll monitor them for a week, and if they're good, we'll be more reassured." "He explained to me in a serious tone, assuring me that he will not 'just choose the person' and that children's lives would be put at risk."But I couldn't help but worry. I've read a lot about how bad things can happen when a child is left with someone else. My heart skipped a beat when I fel
