Wishing I was 23

The Birth Of Dawn And Ryse

This is the day we've been looking for since she had found out. Everything is in order and she should be due anytime now.

All the baby stuff are already in place and I've finish all the baby rooms in our three houses. I just can't wait to meet my babies.

"Babe! Where did you put the baby bag?", yelled Lauren as she is trying to find all the stuff. She's very anxious as it is her first children and she is panicking on the spot.

"Angel, angle, I grabbed her arms and look into her eyes." Calm down. You should be sitting down. I'll get the stuff, you stay here and take this", I gave her a drink and she drinks it as I rushed upstairs to get the babies clothes and other toys.

We are in Colorado now because Lauren actually wanted to live here due to the nature around our house and how it is echo-friendly for our kids.

The houses in Maimi and LA are for when we need to visit her family or we have an important interview or job in LA.

After I've found the baby stuff, I grabbed my keys and we went to the garage. Yes, I can drive a car now. Its legal too. Plus I got my licence a few weeks before.

I drove us to the hospital in time as Lauren had broke her water bag. The nurses pushed her to the delivery room in a wheelchair as I wait outside.

In the meantime, I called everyone to come. Everyone including my family The Jaureguis, The girls, my friends, Lauren's friends and even the Cebellos came.

When everyone arrived, the doctor told me, I could help her and so, I went in as her support.

I went in, wearing a ridiculous gown and ran to Lauren's right side. I held on to her hand and she was screaming as she pushes my babies out.

She cursed, she scolded and many other valgurities came out in Spanish. She was holding onto my hand real tight and I kept on giving her support like kisses on her fist and encouraged her to push further.

Soon, I hear the cried of my first baby. "It's a boy", Doctor Ron said and I smiled and Lauren had a brief smile as she could feel another one coming out.

"Okay, Last push Lauren. Come on, you can do it", The nurse shouts and Lauren basically nearly passed out pushing out my daughter.

The doctor and nurse wrapped and cleaned my babies before giving it to us. Lauren was tired so she fell asleep and I gave her a kiss in her forehead.

I took off my gown and washed my hands before I went out. Doctor Ron told me that he would bring Lauren into a ward and that the babies will arrive five minutes after.

I went outside to see everyone I loved and cared just waiting anxiously. "She's okay. The babies are okay", I told them and they jumped in joy.

Everyone was celebrating and hugged me while congratulating me for my newborns. Doctor Ron then came out and pulled me to the corner.

"We have a problem", I got worried. "Your daughter seems to be deaf on her left ear. She may also be experiencing lost of eyesight. Other than that, your son is perfectly fine. I'm sorry for the inconvenience", he informed me and I gave him a small smile.

"It's alright, Doc. We've seen this coming", I told him and he nods. "Lauren is in room 276 so, you can visit her now", he said and I thanked him.

I went back to my friends and family and they were still there as the other buys some gifts.

"What's wrong kiddo?", Rocky said. "My daughter is half deaf and possibly blind. I can't believe that even though we've seen this coming. How am I suppose to cope? What if she feels like she's a burden? What if we favour her more than her brother and we fall apart?", questions coursed through my mind and Ryland relaxed me.
