Diana - Chapter 295

It was nearing the time of delivery, as Diana is now heavy. She couldn’t move around like before, because as expected, there are few complications.

She started using her wheelchair again, but will move around once in a while to stretch her muscles.

She’s feeling pain in the hit area again. It wasn’t much, but she was warned to be careful.

At this stage, it’s not the baby that’s in danger but her. She has passed the stage where her child is at risk. If any issues occur, the least that could happen to the baby is getting delivered earlier, while Diana will have issues after.

With the increase of doctors and nurses, she was well taken care of. Days went by, with Ethan panicking.

He couldn’t even carry her as an option, because he noticed how she winced.

One beautiful Friday, the whole family were having their breakfast, while Ethan was helping her massage her swollen legs.

Diana felt awkward. Ethan didn’t care about those in the room, but she felt like it wasn’t right.

He has hinted for him to stop, but he didn’t. Fortunately, the oldies were fully in support of it, but Stella was feeling just like Diana.

The mother and daughter couldn’t read minds, but thought Ethan’s family wouldn’t be pleased with it.

“Ethan, please eat.” Diana said, pausing her lips.

With a big grin on his face, Ethan looked up into her eyes, “did you feel better?” he asked, still continuing with what he’s doing.

Diana bit down on her lower lip and finally looked up at everyone. She felt at ease as they were all smiling except Stella.

Stella was glad that Ethan loved her daughter, but after seeing the happiness in their eyes, she also loosen up.

“That’s how a good husband should be.”

“You should massage it before she sleeps as well… ..”

They started giving comments, while Ethan was grinning like an idiot.

Diana also smiled, and leaned to hit Ethan’s shoulder but froze, before “ah!” she exclaimed.

….

“I want to go in.” Ethan said, as she heard Diana’s screaming due to labour pain, while he was restricted from going in.

“Relax Ethan, she will be fine.” Melanie said, while Stella was also biting hard at her fingers and stomping her feet on the floor.

“Oh God!” Ethan exclaimed as he heard Diana’s scream louder.

Putting her palm together, Stella started praying, while Ethan was sweating profusely as if he was the one giving birth.

“Is this how you scream when giving birth?” he asked, while Melanie nodded her head, “she will be fine.” she assured.

“Oh God! mom, I’m scared. I brought that upon her… ” Ethan started confessing his sins, blabbing continuously until the sound of baby cries was heard.

The grannies were excited and laughed out loud, while Ethan breathed heavily, “is it over?” he asked.

Before he could receive a reply, Diana screamed again, while Ethan dash towards the door, but again, Melanie held him.

“Mom…” he called, looking into her eyes.

Stella kept muttering to herself, “you can do it baby. Just one more.” It was like a mantra.

The grannies joined her in prayer as well.

“She has to deliver the second child.” Melanie said to Ethan.

The couple refused to see or hear the result of the scan, claiming they want a surprise, while they rest respect their wish, but couldn’t wait to see for themselves.

Ethan blinked, “twins?” he asked in awe.

“Yes Ethan, she’s delivering two babies.” Melanie said, still holding him.

He bit down on his lower lip and clenched his fist, as he heard Diana going through another section of screams.

He let out a breath he had no idea he was holding, immediately the cry of the second baby was heard.

“She’s fine now right?” he asked, while Melanie nodded her head.

The door opened after a few minutes after the cry of the second baby, “congratulations.” the doctor said, smiling at them.

“Is she okay?  no complications?” Ethan asked, and finally sigh in relief after the doctor said both mother and babies are healthy.

He made his way inside immediately, only to see one of the babies that had been cleaned and wrapped up, was being placed in Diana’s arm.

He stares at the scene with his emotions bubbling up. Diana’s eyes were red, with her hair disheveled, but the affection in her eyes overshadowed everything as she took the baby in her arms.

“Oh my God! She’s cute!” she exclaimed happily, before looking up and her eyes locked with Ethan’s own.

“It’s a she.” she said and smiled at him.

“They are both female.” the nurse said, as the second baby was being brought towards Ethan.

Ethan’s body tensed as he looked at the nurse and the baby, his eyes shining, “I can hold her?” he asked with uncertainty.

“Of course.” she said and passed her the baby, while his blue eyes stare into the baby’s hazel green own.

“Oh my God!” he exclaimed and chuckled as he slowly walked towards the bed, counting his steps, as if afraid he might trip and hurt her.

Gently sitting beside her, he placed a kiss to her forehead, “thank you baby, they are so beautiful.” he said and pressed his lips to her forehead again.

“Are you okay?” he asked, while Diana nodded her head.

While the two were staring at the two babies, as if they can’t believe their eyes, the rest of the family came inside and was smiling at them.

Cleaning a drop of tears from his eyes, Ethan looked up and sniffed his nose, “mom come, they are so cute.” he said excitedly, before bursting into laughter again.

Diana also stared at her mom, who nodded her head at her, before walking closer and run her hands through her hair, “you did well baby. Congratulations.” she said with tears streaming down her face.

“Mom.” Diana called.

“It’s tears of joy baby, tears of joy. They are very beautiful.” she said, stroking her hair.
