Wrong Injection

Chapter 58

Liam has been crying for so long now and I don't know what to do to stop him from crying. I continue to cuddle him, as I think of a way to make him stop crying. After the funeral of Veronica, her father clearly told me he has nothing to do with Liam, and also never to mention about him to Liam when he grows up. He has actually sever all ties with his own grandson and I cannot believe such a cold person exists in the world, this man has never ever been sane.

"Shh.. stop crying champ," I says rocking him.

"Oh Liam my boy," mom says, walking in with Liam's baby formula, "let me hold him."  She takes him and feed him right away, he is radiantly full and begins to babble baby words.

"He cries so much," I complain and mom laughs.

"Fathers must not complain about their children especially when they are so young," she tease and I huff with a head shake.

"But Liam is doing too much, he needs to man up as soon as possible." I pace back and forth.

"Oh look who is saying Liam is doing too much," mom says and I stop pacing, "you did more of what Liam is doing trust me. There was a time I had to take you into the bathroom to have a shower because you wouldn't let me put you down, you wouldn't let me do anything Sultan King West."

"Oh ma please tell me you are lying?" I say and we both laugh, I cannot believe I put mom through so much when I was little.

"I'm damn serious, but I never told you to man up. So you better not say that to Liam."

"Uh jeez," I grip my hair as I look at him.

"Don't mind your father my boy," mom says rocking him to sleep, I watch as she gently puts him in his crib when he finally close his eyes.

"Finally," I huff.

"Shh lets go out," she whispers and grabs my arm as we walk out of Liam's room and into my room, "there's something I've been planning to tell you and I think this is the right time to say it." She says.

"What is it?"

"Liam doesn't look like you, neither does he looks like Veronica, isn't it strange?"

"Yes it is, I've been wondering about that myself but it's okay if he doesn't look like any of us." I shrug and she nod.

"Alright but I want to say something, please don't say no to me." She plea with her eyes.

"Alright go ahead."

"Liam needs to be breast feed at least once a while, he cannot drink baby formula all the time." I've been thinking about that too.

"You're right but where do I get breast milk for him?" I rake my hand through my hair feeling frustrated.

"Milani," she says and my eyes widen.
