Revenge: Queen Of The Fashion World - 171 The twin’s arrival 2
I am now wearing a hospital gown. The contractions have become more frequent. The pain is now more intense than before. If I describe it, it feels like menstrual cramps to the nth power.”Ahhh, f*ck.” I cried out in pain.”Mrs. Versales, hang in there.” A nurse that was left in the room to monitor me said.”How long would I endure this pain?” I asked.”It differs for every woman ma’am. But for you I guess it won’t be long. You have dilated fully and the doctor will be back to get ready for the birth.” The nurse replied.”Troy, my husband?” I asked weakly. I felt drained every time after a contraction.”I heard he had arrived ma’am. He is just doing necessary procedures so that he can accompany you here.” The nurse answered.I sighed in relief. ‘Troy is here.’ I thought to myself.Then not long after the door opened. Two people entered. One was the doctor and the other was no other than my angel, my husband Troy.”Troy, you’re here.” I smiled weakly.Troy was wearing a blue scrub suit with gloves, cap, and face mask. I may not see his face but I can see his beautiful emerald green eyes that are filled with worry.”Love, how are you doing?” Troy asked when he approached me. He took my hand and held it gently.”I’m a little drained.” I said with a smile. “But now you are here, I can feel strength returning back to me again.””Don’t worry love. I’m right here beside you.” Troy said, full of affection. He leaned over and kissed my forehead thru his face mask.I felt my strength return now that Troy is beside me.”Let me check you.” The doctor said. She carefully spread my legs and examined me. “Are you sure you want to go normal?”The doctor and I have discussed the type of birth I want months before. She had opted me to have a cesarian section which will be easy, knowing that I will be having twins.But I really want to give birth normally, as much as possible. The doctor said that if there are no complications and I will follow a strict diet then giving birth normally is a possibility.”Yes doctor, I really want to give birth to them normally.” I replied.”All right then.” The doctor nodded and looked at the nurses beside her. “Get ready, one of the babies is already crowning.”The nurses nodded and became busy with their work in assisting the doctor.”I need you to push when I tell you to, okay.” The doctor said. “It would be best to time it to your contractions. That is the indicator that you need to push.”I gently nodded. Troy squeezed my hand that he was holding. I can see a bead of sweat in his forehead and his worried look.I smiled at him just to let him know that everything will be okay. That once this is over we would see our beautiful angels.”I’m just right here love. You can do this.” Troy encouraged me.”Thank you, love.” I said.Then another contractions was coming.”Alright Jill push.” The doctor instructed me.”Ahhhh!” I pushed hard enduring the pain I was feeling.”Okay, take a deep breath.” The doctor said after a few seconds. So I lay down to take a breather.Troy was right beside me, wiping the sweat on my face.”You can do this.” Troy said. His words give me so much encouragement that I needed right now.”Okay another push.” The doctor said. And so I push again.This routine repeated for a few times.”I can see the baby’s head now. Keep pushing.” The doctor said.”Ahhhhhh!” I pushed with all my might. After that I fell down on the bed panting.’Uwah, uwah, uwah’ I hear the baby’s cry.”You did it Jill. One of the babies is out.” Troy said with the mixture of joy and awe. I can see tears were streaming down from his eyes. Tears of joy.”It’s a boy.” The doctor said while holding my little bundle of joy. “Here take him.” The doctor gave it to the nurse and she started to do the necessary things.”Okay Jill, there still another one.” The doctor said to me. “Okay dear, push.””Ahhhhh.” I pushed again. I can feel that my strength is starting to drain.”Okay deep breath again.” The doctor said. “Just another push and she will be out. She’s crowning.””You can do this love. Just one more.” Troy said to me. He was holding my hand the entire time not letting go.I was panting hard. I can feel my strength draining from me.’Just one push. One more.’ I told myself.”Okay push!” The doctor said. And so for the last time I pushed with all I have got.”Ahhhh!” I screamed.’Uwah, uwah’ I can hear another cry.”The little girl is out.” The doctor said and gave it to the nurse.”You did good love. You did good.” Troy was praising me while wiping my face. And then he kissed my forehead.Tears are now flowing down my eyes, down to my cheeks. I can feel the satisfaction of bringing my bundles of joy, my angels, into this world.”Where are they? I want to see them.” I said.Two nurses approached us with our babies in their arms. They were cuddled inside blue and pink blankets. One nurse gave me the baby bundled in the blue blanket and the other nurse gave Troy the baby bundled in the pink blanket. They have stopped crying just a while ago.We both cradled the babies carefully like they were made of glass. I looked at the baby boy in my arms. He opened his eyes slowly and I can see his blue green eyes looking at me.”Such beautiful eyes.” I touched his soft forehead gently with my fingers and smiled.”Blue green eyes.” Troy said. He slowly leaned down so that I can see our baby girl.”They both have the same eyes.” I smiled.”They both look beautiful.” Troy said. “Thank you Jill. Thank you for giving me these wonderful blessings. I love you, so so much.” I can hear Troy’s voice trembling. He must be trying hard not to sob.”I love you too.” I was also trying not to cry but to no avail. Tears started to stream down my eye to my cheeks. Troy wiped them with his free hand and gave me a kiss on my lips.This moment will be one of my most memorable experience. This was the time that we had become a family.
