Nathan Lawrence

"Are they fine? " My mother asked as she approached me nervously.

"They both are fine. " I said as I calmed them down.

We are now at the labor ward and my little love is coming soon.

My wife is tiredly sleeping due to the natural labor delivery and my heart shattered to see her screaming in pain. Tears rambled from my eyes unconsciously to see my love in that state but as soon as my daughter's cries reached my ears, my heart replaced with sudden warmth and happiness.

The doctor gave our little love to us and she's an exact copy of my wife.

"I'm so proud of you, dear. " Ishita's mother patted her daughter's head and kissed her forehead.

My mother, on the other side did the same as she took the baby in her arms. The nurse had cleaned and dressed my little love in my new bought clothes yet it fits her tiny self so firmly.

I took my baby in my arms again and her eyes suddenly opened to check everyone around us as she squealed lightly. I moved to my wife while sitting beside her to show my little love's reaction and I handed her to my wife. She caresses her tiny fingers as she pecked her cheeks.

"She's just like you. A mini Ishita. " I said as she eyed our daughter focusly with an undying smile since I said so.

"I love you both so much." I mumbled while gazing both my loves together and my wifey inches closer to kiss my lips as she laid herself on my chest with our baby in the middle of us.

Ishita Hassan

I doesn't realised the time passing by when I was busy examining my baby until a faint snore came up to my ears. I turn myself to see him leaning his head on the bed's rail while his eyes shut close.

This scene clearly noticable at how much tired he could be as he spent the whole day without any bit of rest. When my water went broke, he automatically prepared all our needed stuff and rushed me to the hospital.

The contraction was unbearable but thinking about my daughter made less pain in me and Nathan was on the edge of burst out as he kept on soothing me.

Everytime when he saw me throbbing due to my labor, an unwanted tear left his eyes and I tried controlling myself to not show the pain in me so that he could make it up but it didn't last long until my baby girl's cries fulfilled the room.

Then, slumber took over me and the next when I came consious, my baby been carried by her father while she's being cradled gently. I called out for him and as soon as he saw me, he hand over the baby to me and kissed my lips.

He stayed up all night to check on our daugther and I gave my baby to my mother as I gently took his head to place it on the bed but then his head landed on my chest and I let it be.

He hasn't realise anything as he is in deep sleep so I let him be on me and my fingers automatically chase to his hair to caress it a little. I'm sure that he was being comfortable in this position as he snuggled close to me and I kissed his head.

Soon, the door open revealing Mrs Lau and Jen with bouquets on each other hands. I greeted them with a smile and they return the favour as they reached for my daughter. Jen looked all guilty and she walked closer to me.

"I'm sorry, Ishita. I just thought that I could get him and hasn't know that you both were really married. I'm sorry, Ishita. " she apologised as she took a hold of my hand and her head was bowed down as she was afraid to face me.
