Lonely (A Fallen Star In My Arms)

32- Our Angel

.

Since that day my life has changed.

Well I still don't have an appetite now but Mae didn't let me skip a single meal. My nausea was terrible but it's better than before.

My tummy is growing little by little. Even my shirts and pants don't fit now.

I wear big size T-shirts.

Sometimes these things bothered me a little but now they don't.

I go to a medical check-up every month.

Biben and my in-laws always give me time. They cheer me up.

Biben gives me foot massage everyday. We cuddle every night. And the strange thing he always does is talk with my tummy.

I can't help but laugh at his silly stuffs.

.
.

Day by day the delivery date is coming closer. It's hard to move with this heavy tummy. Biben is always carrying me if I wanna go downstairs.

I don't know if I can make it or not. I'm afraid.

These days are becoming hard for me. Biben and others are trying their best to cheer me up.

.
.

The date is almost knocking on the door.

"Babe... You ok?"

"I'm not.. I'm afraid Biben... I don't know why.."

"Babe don't be... Everything will be alright. You're strong. You can make it. Just think that... Our angel is coming. You can make it."

He took my hand between his palms and held tightly.

I nodded.

Now everyone is here chatting with family about random things after dinner.

Suddenly my tummy starts aching. Within some time the pain feels double.

"Babe... What's wrong?!"

"My tummy is... Aching... It hurts..."

"Bible... We have to take him to the hospital. Now.." Mae said.

Phi went to take out the car.

I took two steps but the water broke. The pain is unbearable.

Biben immediately lifts me up. We're heading to the hospital.

It's hard. My breathing is unsteady.

"Babe we're almost here. Stay on please."

Within some time the doctors took me to the OT. Biben is with me.

I hold his hand tightly.

"Push Jeff... The baby is coming." Doctor Arena said.

I'm trying but the pain feels like my soul is going out of my body.

"You can do it, babe... Be strong..."

I look at him. He's caressing my head. I pushed. Tears filled my eyes and ran down like streams. My vision is blurry.

I keep pushing with all the energy in my body.

Bib's POV _

I just can't see his pain. His tears are flowing so as mine.

I'm holding his hand tightly but it's not enough to erase the pain.

"The baby's head is coming.. a bit more." Said doctor.

"Babe almost there.."

"Hold... me... Bi... Biben..."

I kissed him. Our breath almost stuck. And he screamed inside my mouth. I swallowed it down.

I let him breathe. A sound of small crying filled the room.

"Congratulations to both of you... It's a baby girl!!"

A smile across my face. I kissed his forehead.

"Babe... You hear that... Our angel is here... It's a girl...."

He smiled a little then closed his eyes.

"Babe... Babe... Doctor is he ok?"

"He just fainted because of blood loss and too much pressure. Don't worry. He'll be alright."

After some time the doctor gives me my angel in my arms.

She's so beautiful... Just like Jeff. Her little fingers are like light feathers.

She grabbed my index with her tiny palm. It's soft. I didn't realize that my tears were still flowing.

I became a father! My princess is between my arms.

I look at Jeff. He's still unconscious. He went through a painful journey. I'm thankful to him.

Jeff's POV _

I opened my eyes. My body is aching even though my head feels heavy. I lost my consciousness after the delivery.

But I remember that Biben said it's a girl. That means our angel is a girl.

I smiled. I turn my head to see Biben. He's walking forth back talking with the baby in his arms.

He's so careful holding like he's afraid to hurt her. I can't describe how blissful this is.

"Biben.." I spoke. My voice is still low.

"Babe you're awake!.. let me help."

I managed to sit leaning over the pillow.

"Our angel is here, babe... She's so beautiful."

He almost cried.

He gives her in my arms. Our baby...

"Yeah she is.."

I couldn't hold my tears. Biben kissed my forehead.

She opens her little eyes. Moving her head slowly.

The doctor comes to check on us. She asked me to feed the baby.

I undone my shirt and closed her head to my chest. She took my nipple and started sucking it. It feels different.

I look at Biben who's looking away. His ears are red.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing... Actually.. I never saw a baby feeding. So it feels... A bit different..."

"Yeah... But you can look at your husband, right?"

He just smiled at me.

After feeding my baby for the first time I gave her to Biben again.

Suddenly my in-laws and parents entered.

They're looking super excited. Mom and Mae hugged me first.

Now the problem is who's gonna hold the baby first. Somehow they managed. My parents and in-laws left after some time. Our baby was in Apo's arms.

After sometime Biu also stormed in with Nodt.

His hugs chocked me again. Now he's not gonna let anyone else hold her.

"Hey you guys gonna wake my princess up. Be careful. If she cried I'm not gonna spare you guys." Biben gives a slight scolding.

Everyone is so happy so as we are. Biben sits beside me holding my hands.

I rested my head on his shoulder while Apo and Biu were quarreling with each other.
