"Soulmates"

Chapter 35 👨🏻‍🏫❤👮🏼‍♀️

Sergio's point of view:

I arrived at the babies' room.

Me: is my baby okay?

Pediatrician: he had difficulty breathing so we put an oxygen mask on him and put him in an incubator... (He said showing me the latter)

I slowly approach my little boy, he was sleeping, he looked so peaceful.

Me: can I touch him?

Pediatrician: yes of course.

I put my hand through one of the holes in the sides of the incubator, and caress Ilyan's little cheek, his skin is very soft.

Me: I love you my baby, I thought I was going to lose you... (I say putting my finger in his hand)

And as if he knew he needed to reassure me, he squeezed my finger tightly in his little hand, I smiled, I took a picture of him to show Raquel, and I ran off to the bedroom where she is, to inform her that our baby is fine, although I know that the doctor who took care of her delivery must have already informed her, but I am sure that she wants to see him.
I enter the room.

Raquel: Sergio...

Me: don't worry my love, he's better... he had difficulty breathing... so they put an oxygen mask on him... and they put him in an incubator...

Raquel: Sergio...I don't know why but I feel like you're lying to me! Please if anything happened to my son, tell me!

Me: No Raquel, I swear he's fine! I even touched him and he squeezed my finger in his little hand! Do you think if something happened to our son I would be happy like now? Here I took a picture of him... (I say giving her the phone)

She picks up the phone, she looks at the picture of our baby and she starts crying... I sit next to her and hug her...

Raquel: I thought we were going to lose him... I was so scared... (she said crying)

Me: me too my love... (I say with tears running down my cheeks)

I wipe Raquel's tears and she wipes mine.

Raquel's point of view:

We remain silent for a few minutes.
I was looking at the picture of our little boy, he is so tiny...

Me: Sergio...

Sergio: yes?

Me: Ilyan has your hair...

He smiles.

Me: and they are long compared to a newborn!

Sergio: unlike Lucia who has no hair... (he says laughing)

Me: hey! Don't make fun of my daughter! (I say lightly tapping his chest)

Sergio: Ouch!

I laugh.

Sergio: I think she will be blonde.

Me: yes... (I say, burying my face in my fiancé's neck)

Sergio: I love you...

Me: I love you too...

Sergio: Paula and your mother will arrive soon.

Me: yes, they will be super happy!

Sergio: I can't believe it! Paula, my little girl has become a big sister!

Me: Sergio... she's not very small... in 2 years she will become a teenager! (I say laughing)
