You changed my life [Rammstein]

Chapter 44: The twins...

EMIL POV (continued):

I panic and really don't know what to do. The woman who was in the house is next to my beautiful and tries to calm her by holding her hand. Fortunately the ambulance soon arrives and Dr. Sheppard comes out.

Two ambulance men bring back a stretcher and then put my darling there that agitates in all the senses, with pain. They take her down and I gather all my courage to follow them outside.

-The ambulance for Carter will arrive soon. Announces the doctor. Now we have to take the girl to the hospital.

I sit beside the mother of my children and this one clings to me and refuses to let go. I stroke her hair with my free hand and then adjusts the oxygen mask on her face.

-Emil, don't leave me alone... She begs me, holding my hand firmly.

-No, I am here my angel. I answer, stroking her face.

Arrived at the hospital, they take her to the delivery room and the doctor refuses to let me join them. I don't know why but it doesn't matter to me, simply because I'm afraid to see my angel screaming badly.

I wait for three hours but no doctor comes to let me know about my wife and my twins' situation. Her friends came to cheer me up and comfort me that all is well, but I'm still like marble.

-Mr. Reinke. Asks Dr. Sheppard, getting out of the room. Congratulations, you've just had two adorable twins; a boy and a girl.

I feel flying to the angels and this pushes me to hug him in a strong embrace. The doctor repels me gently and then coughs to clear his throat but I go ahead.

-Can I go to see her? I ask, always in the clouds.

-Not now, you must wait that the nurses take her to the room.

The girls come to me and congratulate me. I am very happy and look forward to seeing my babies. The delivery room's door opens and I see my Jima sleeping on a bed with wheels.

I wait another half an hour, then I follow a nurse who takes me to my fiancée's room. I enter and notice that all the others have arrived, probably alarmed by the Ramm-Girls. My father looks at me with a gleam of happiness in his eyes.

-I'm very proud of you, Emil. He says paternally.

-Thank you very much, Paul. I reply while stroking my little beard.

-How have you named them? Oliver asks, hugging Fleur in her arms.

I look at him questioningly, dragging my eyes between him and the French. So she is the cause of his bizarre escapades on the weekend? Never mind, I don't meddle in the loving and personal life of my father's friends.

-Gabriel Paul Landers and Yvonne Anaisse Landers. Answers my lover.

-It's too cute as first names !! Mika exclaims, shaking Till's hand.

-The time for visits is over, for the moment. Announces Jacob as he enters. You must wait until the evening to see her again.

The girls grow protesting boos but eventually come out. I confirm that everything goes well with the mother of my little ones and then leave the room in my turn. I stop in the corridor when I see the singer talking to my brother-in-law.

-I'm sorry for your loss, Mr. Carter. Lindemann tells him.

-Thank you very much, Herr Lindemann. Stammers the blond, with empty gaze.

I wait them to separate and then catch up with the other blond in front of the elevators. I really need to know a thing.

-Till, where's Christian? I ask while entering the metal monster with him.

-He's not here yet, he's coming with Maria and Anna. He answers, pressing the button to the ground floor. But why this sudden interest in him?

-A secret has got revealed today and I have to find him before it's too late.

-A secret, you say? Like your father and Richard? He asks sarcastically.

I roll my eyes and then leave the elevator when it stops. I really have to talk to Flake before the secret will be revealed, because I know very well that my brunette will sting a crisis in front of him...

POV JIMAIMA:

-Gabriel Carter is not my father... I can't stop repeating it in a loop.

The memory of the letter I discovered behind the frame comes back to mind.

"Dear Jimaima...

If this letter is in your hands, it means that the moment to reveal the secret has finally arrived. I don't know how to begin, by the fact that you are my niece, my sister's daughter? Or that mother had killed herself for your father's sake?

Honey, all I ask from you is not to hate your father. He had certainly caused Anaisse's death by a stupid judgment, he who hates the Americans, but don't blame him. He had never known for your existence.

Gabriel Carter... »

I wonder how I didn't understand it from the beginning. We look alike very much, my real father and me, and anyone would have seen it. I wonder if he will see me the same way he saw me before, when we were friends.

-Jimaima, Maria and Annie are here and they want to see you. Says Mika, letting them in.

-And where is Christian? I ask her.

-Emil hold him back, I think they have some very important things to talk about. The young blonde replies.

I straighten up more on the cushions, I feel ready to face the truth. Anyway, I want to face the secret that my adoptive father had hidden for 19 years.
