Time Tells

Dave And Della.........

Months past, I was just feeding on meat and some milk. I don't know why but myself needed milk. Till that day, I was walking downstairs when I felt really felt tired and I was in pain. I called Saul quickly. He carried me to the bed. He was freaking out, the time had come and we were not ready at all but I felt it was only a few months.
              "Saul, call Clara now and tell her to bring some nurses with her please, I know you don't trust humans that much but I need them" , I said screaming.
              " Keep calm, am going to call, be strong for us" , he said calling Clara.
Clara came as fast as possible with the nurses. She was a true friend and sister.
They chased Saul but he refused to go out.
          " Please, go out, she is in good hands" , said a nurse.
           "Am not leaving her here with you guys, am watching means am watching" , shouted Saul.
           " Leave him alone, I shouted from the bed. Let the father watch" .
Oh my God, giving birth is not easy. I pushed, I screamed. Finally the child came out till the nurse said there's another one still. I stopped screaming for a second and looked at her. The last was painful like it was scratching me as it came out. I was having twins and no one knew nor did I till I remembered myself seeing three hands when I checked my stomach.
             "Ella are you fine?" , said Saul after I calmed down.
             "Am fine Saul, we are having twins, imagine non of us had an idea" , I smiled as they brought both my babies.
          "It's a girl and a boy" , screamed Clara as she gave us our babies.
Really, just as we both wanted, I looked at Saul and smiled.
          "It's a girl and a boy as we both wanted, isn't it fair?" , I said.
           Dave and Della, our devilishly children. "Am very happy today and proud of you" , he said trying to hold his tears.
         "We both created this little children, me and you" , I replied back.

Something was wrong, I was breastfeeding my children but Della refused to drink milk. She couldn't accept anything and I was becoming worried of what I should feed her. I told Saul but he was ignorant saying that maybe she never wanted to breastfeed.
Clara invited me to come over to her house to celebrate with her. We went with Saul and the babies. She was happy to see us and we celebrated in her garden. It was really nice to know that her and Radev were dating at least she had someone to make her happy in all ways. I was congratulating Clara for her new boyfriend so we went aside to talk. I was holding Della and Saul was holding Dave when Clara cut herself when she carry Della from me. Maybe it was my cloth. She started bleeding and it was dropping. I put Della down and called Saul and Radev . We were busy attending to Clara's wound when I turned to see if Della was alright and I saw her licking blood, Clara's blood!.
            "Saul, look at Della" , I tapped him pointing at Della.
He looked at her and ran to stop her. How can she lick blood? ", I stood astonished.
             *Finally we now no what she feeds on" , Saul said carrying her.
               "And do you think that it is a good thing for her to feed on blood ", I replied approaching them.
               "Ella what can we do, if we don't feed her on blood, shall we starve her then, he said slowly.
                It's the only thing she likes so we can't refuse because she will starve. Think about her not because you don't like it, snapped Radev.
I looked at Della and then Dave. Dave was bigger than Della by six seconds. And I loved her and I was ready to do the impossible for her and also for Dave.
