Sunday

K

Five months have passed, and the boys totally forgot about Sunday. They never met her, too. If five months ago you'll tell them that there is a possibility, they'll believe you. But not this time. They just didn't mind it at all. They just went on with their lives.

It was now their last year in college. Why stress about other things if you can live your life happily?

It was a Friday night, and Lisa was asleep next to Alex. They just finished doing some dirty business. Couples. Adult. It happens.

Alex was lying down beside Lisa and was ready to fall asleep. Just when he was about to close his eyes, his phone rang.

He frowned and grabbed his phone from his nightstand. "Hello?"

"Alex! This is Janice. Su-Sunday's sister. We're at the Medical Centre. Sunday's going into labour."

Alex suddenly sat up and felt like he had lost his breath.

"I need you here. She wants to see you." Janice told him in panic. Alex also heard a scream in the background.

"Erm. Should I bri-bring Zack?" Alex questions.

Annoyed, Janice made her voice higher. "I don't care, Alex. You can bring the whole USA and I wouldn't mind. She won't stop calling for you. Please come immediately."

Alex got up from his bed slowly and went to his dresser. He wore his boxers and took out a shirt and pants. He dressed at a fast pace and went out of his room.

On the way to his car, Alex called everyone and informed them that Sunday was going into labour. "Yeah. Her sister called me. If you want to come, just call me. I'm leaving now."

When Alex reached the hospital, he went to the reception area and asked for Sunday's whereabouts.

"She's in the delivery room. Congratulations, by the way." The nurse smiled.

Alex gave her a funny look. "What? I'm not the father. I'm her best friend, but thanks."

"You can't enter in there, Sir." The nurse added.

Alex's smile dropped. "Right. I'm just gonna wait outside. Where is it again?"

The nurse fixed her eyeglasses before answering. "It's on the second floor, Sir. First door to your right."

"Thanks." Alex then ran to the elevator and went to the area. There are three dads there waiting for their names to be called.

Alex sat down on the bench with his hands sweaty. A guy beside him spoke up.

"First time?" He chuckled.

Alex nodded. "Yeah. I'm a bit nervous and excited."

"Me too."

A minute later, a nurse came out with a baby on her arms and called out the name "Miller?"

A guy sitting at the far end stood up. "Oh. That's me. Ian Miller." He went to the nurse and smiled down at the baby.

"It's a girl, Sir." The nurse informed him. Tears brimmed at the bottom of Ian's eyes, and he wiped it away. "I have to come back inside and you can go to your wife's room. She's okay, but we have to check on them both first."

"Thank you, nurse." With a blessed look, Ian slowly walked out of the waiting area.

A text interrupted Alex's anxious mind. He took out his phone and checked it. It was from Jack.

Jack told him that they were at the hospital's parking lot and they did not know where to go.

Alex told them to go to the delivery room and waited for them to show up.

"How is Sunday?" Rian asked the time he reached the floor.

Alex sighed. "I wish I knew. But I hope she's fine."

"I hope the baby's going to be a boy." Jack said. "I want to take him on basketball games, and I'm gonna name him Jackson."

"Funny. It's not for you to decide, dumbass." Rian flicked him off. Jack rolled his eyes and looked at Zack.

"So, how are you feeling that we're here now?"

Zack faced the floor. "I don't know. I'm scared."

"Welp. You are the father. Have you decided on a name yet?" Jack questions.

Zack shook his head no. "I don't have the right to choose its name. The baby doesn't deserve me, and I don't deserve the kid."

A nurse then came out of the room. "Adams?"

"Oh my gosh. That's Sunday." Alex gasped.
