EPILOGUE

I woke up feeling tired eight months later. My belly was so big such that peoples started teasing me that I was carrying triplets.
In my mind, I knew I only had one baby because I had done a scan earlier and it showed only one baby. I ate almost everything. My eating habits had changed and I ate like there was no tomorrow. My excuse was that I was eating for two. I was happy though, because it was a smooth one and I was assured of a normal delivery.
That day, I woke up feeling tired and some abdominal pains once in a while. I remembered that it was my EDD.
I called Sam because he had left to work.
He came back and helped me prepare and he drove to the hospital.
He teased me all the way. He promised to help rub my back and belly while pushing.
I just laughed at that.
The pain had increased and the contractions were more.
The nurses received me and I was booked in and admitted, then taken to the labour ward.
Sam wasn't allowed in there and he went to wait for me at the sitting area.
My bundle of joy came hours later, healthy and chubby.
Sam was Beyond himself with joy after seeing his son.
He held him and he couldn't stop taking selfies to show the whole world that he was a dad for the second time.
I texted Judy and she was mad at me because I didn't tell her when I started experiencing labour pains.
She came to the hospital, carrying some food for me.
Ever since we reconciled, she has been my best friend and she responded to my every call with love.
I ate the chicken like my life depended on it.
Twp days later, we were declared fit to go home and Sam was happy. All that time in the hospital, he only went home to change and bring some things which I needed.
He cleared with the hospital and he drove us home.
The reaction Shirleen had when she saw her baby brother was to die for. She even cried, saying that he looked tiny.

************************************
Five years later, here we are, Shirleen is ten years old while Dan, her bro is five years old.
They are the most adorable kids I have ever seen. Judy adopted another child, a boy who is now 3 years while Sharon is 7.
Sam surprised me with a supermarket an I have opened several branches all over the country.
His other businesses are doing well and he has opened branches all over the world.
He is a well known business man in East and Central Africa.
As for Judy, she is doing well too and she loves my kids as much as I love them. I love her kids too. Judy met a loving divorcee and they are happy together.
We are one big family whose Union is sealed by love. Sam makes sure we celebrate our wedding anniversary yearly and each year he takes us to different parts of the world. He is the best!
This far, God has been faithful and everything I have, I owe it unto Him....
