Lian was in to England since Tania and Lucas were now parents of a 7lb 6oz baby boy. Lucas Samuel Fraser was doing well and Tania was recovering nicely. Lian knew that the coming week would be tough because she had to face a few truths...Derick would definitely be around and since he had walked out three months ago he had not been in contact.
She convinced herself that it was for the best.
'Lian, could you help me please while I tidy up.' Tania told her as she walked into the nursery.
Little Luke was adorable as he slept in his cot. The room was blue and white with pictures and drawings of cars, trains and sports.
'Why are men so single minded in believing boys should only play with cars? I'm sure Lucas designed this room entirely!' Lian commenting as Tania laughed.
'You know girl, the only contribution I made was with the shade of the blue paint.' They laughed as she helped Tania put away the baby items.
Tania kept glancing at the baby sleeping and Lian smiled.
'He won't disappear you know.' Lian joked as Tania blushed and walked over to the cot and touched her son's head.
'I still can't believe he is here and he is mine.' Tania was looking so at peace and proud at that moment that Lian took her phone from her back pocket and took a picture.
'Hey!' Tania said loudly as realised that she was too loud and covered her mouth. The women giggled softly as they finished tidying up. Tania turned on the monitor before leaving the room.
'Is my grandson sleeping?' asked Tania's mother as they descended the stairs.
'Yeah, the warm bath seemed to have knocked him out.' Tania replied
'I believe it was all the milk he drank, that boy is a filler!' Lian commented as Tania held her boobs.
'I have boobs,' Tania commented smiling moving her breasts up and down. 'Ouch, right now they hurt like hell!'
'It will get better dear as you get used to the suckling.' Tania's mother soothed her daughter and rubbed her back.
'It had better, but I want to keep these babies for sometime.' They all laughed at Tania's remarks.
The day was moving on swiftly and Lian had been feeling quite at ease around Little Luke. He was a beautiful child and maybe she was not meant to be a mother. Tania on the other hand seemed to have taken to motherhood like a pro.
Lian descended the stairs slowly as she carried her godson later that day. Luke seemed enthralled by her face. She smiled at him. He was so small yet he was a life created through the love of two people. Tania followed her as they went to greet Lucas.
'Here is my little joy,' Lucas said as they entered the room, he rushed to take his son.
'Proud papa,' she said as she handed Luke over, 'your daddy is totally gaga over you, isn't he?' she cooed as the proud papa snuggled his son to him.
'Come meet your godson Derick.' Tania invited and Lian froze. Derick was here? She looked up and saw him standing in front of them. She had been so busy with the baby she had not noticed him in the room.
Derick had also stilled on seeing Lian carrying baby Luke. Seeing her again was not going to be easy but seeing her with a baby did nothing to ease his discomfort. The last time he had seen her she had been cold and downright insulting. He hoped she was as miserable as he was. The last few months had been sheer torture being without her. He had poured himself into his work and his mood swings were affecting his relationship with his employees who walked on egg shells around him.
