The couple looked at each other, then at the wailing babies. Initially they were so full of awe and love for their babies that even the red, crying faces were beautiful.
"Mr and Mrs Delatour, let us take the babies for now. They need to be fed."
"No, I want to breastfeed them"
"Do not worry mam. we will not bottle feed them but will give them some milk with a spoon first. For now you are too exhausted to feed or pump any milk.so we will care for them first. Once you are recovered, you can start feeding them yourself."
"Listen to them honey. it's ok"
The women finally agreed reluctantly.
"what are their names?"
asked one of the nurse.
"Alexander and Alex"
"nice names"
Alexander listened and was happy with his name, soon he heard his brother's voice
"hello elder brother Alexander"
" hi jr Alex"
Eric turned towards his wife
"darling we have two cute sons who will turn out to be handsome. I am so proud of you."
Eric said as he faced his wife, Amelia.
"yes"
she agreed with a sweet smile and slowly went into sleep, which was most needed for her. And he gently kissed her forehead.
Then he went to check on the kids. He was worried about the safety. They wouldn't be staying in this hospital for long anyway. and once discharged, the house would be a far better place to be. The nursery was already ready, including the nannies for the babies. With them there the cold big house is going to be filled with new life.
Eric smiled at that thought. He felt truly blessed, and appreciated all that Amelia had been through.
