Emma POV
I wake up snuggled into my husband, I love this man so much. He's such a good man. Takes such good care of me and all these children. I place my hand over my nearly non-existent belly I have a big decision to make, Denise came over yesterday and said that the government had finally organized a doctor that could perform an abortion on the girls who didn't want to have his children, as some of the girls were not wanting to have it, so bad in fact that one of the youngest he attacked throw herself down a flight of stairs trying to get rid of it, it didn't work and she only hurt herself.
I've booked in but I don't know, do I have the right, to take its life away? What has this child ever done to deserve that? It hasn't done anything but unfortunately, have it as a dad.
"What do I do?"
"Hmmm, babe?"
"What do I do?"
"What does your heart tell you to do honey?"
"I don't know. I want to keep it but what if he or she takes after him?"
"We know that that is a possibility so we have to be more aware of them."
"But should we have to?"
"Baby this baby is innocent yeah he might be his father but I'm its daddy. I will raise him or her personally I hope another boy then it balances everything out four boys four girls."
"Yeah, it would balance everything out if it was a boy."
"I won't force you to have this baby. I want you to think. Decide what you want to do, I won't hate you whatever you decide."
"So if I keep this baby and have it you will be fine?"
"Better than fine babe. I'd be happy. I want you to be happy, I know that's a lot to ask but I know you will love this baby. I know it's half you. So it's already won its way into my heart. As I said before I will love it as much maybe even more than I love Merlynn because he or she is the baby of the family. And the baby always gets the most love."
"You think so? So we are going to do this? Have this baby."
"If you want to, no pressure from me."
"I do babe I want this child, even though it was made how it was made I love it, Daryl, I want to meet him or her. I think it will be a boy too. What should we call him?"
"I don't know but no Daryl junior he needs his own identity."
"What about Sebastian or Russell I always like Kurt Russell."
"What about both Sebastian Russell Dixon for a boy? What about a girl? My mom's name was Christina and yours was Jacqueline, right? What about those two together name her after our moms."
"Christina Jacqueline I think not because it's my mom's name but Jacqueline Christina it sounds nicer. Is that okay?" Daryl moves lower over my belly.
"Hello, Jacqueline or Sebastian I'm your dad. And I love you very much baby Dixon."
"God I love you too Daryl."
"Oh, I love you too babe. I was talking to the baby. But it can apply to you too."
"I know you know you're a good daddy, this baby is so lucky to have you as its daddy. I know how lucky I am to you as a husband, I love you so much."
