" What's he?"
A little boy about the age of two asked facing a man who sat beside him in the ward, he was missing some teeth.
He was told that a baby would be joining the family and thought all babies were boys just like him, he just found it hard to understand that there were differences between 'he' and 'she'
The man had a black hair and deep blue eyes, he was wearing a black shirt with black trouser. He sat watching the woman who was lying on the bed, he had been sitting next to her since he had been here.
" It's a girl so he is a she" The man replied smiling.
" A She?" The little boy asked
" Yes your sister "
" My shister?" He asked as his eyes rolled in confusion.
" What's a shister?" He asked again.
" A relative of yours related by blood"
" A relative??" The boy rolled his eyes again. All he was being told seemed complicated.
" What's a rela....."
" Dray you should stop questioning your father..."
A weak voice had interrupted the little boy who was curious.
" Mamma "
" Serena"
They both called out in unison.
Dray exclaimed in joy as he ran towards where the voice had came from.
" Come here boy."
Dray ran towards his mother and jumped heavily on the bed excitedly .
" Careful Dray" His father called out to him.
" It's okay Daryc " Serena said smiling, her pale skin emitting a gentle glow.
" Mamma?"
" What's a relative, Father shaid I have a shister and..."
" Now it's not the time for questions Dray, can't you see she's just recovering "
Dray pouted folding his arms.
Is it a crime to ask questions, the little boy just couldn't understand what a relative is and wanted to know more since he is curious.
Serena smiled.
" Have you seen her yet?" She asked.
" Yes, she's beautiful" he replied smiling.
" Beautiful Princess " Dray Chimed in then pouted again.
Serena and Daryc laughed and Dray joined in.
The couples talked for hours happily, with Dray adding one or two words to their chats. The atmosphere in the room was bright and cheery.

Liam watched the happy couples who were engrossed in their chats oblivious of the third party who had been watching them.
He was glad and admired the couples.
Earlier on while he was helping Serena with delivering her child, he was nervous as her situation was the first he had ever seen
It was more like the child was being stopped from coming to this world and if nothing was done carefully, the child and the mother's life would be lost.
So he was happy when he had delivered her of her baby, that when he was told that she was heard he felt devastated and knew he had to do all he could to help her.
Luckily for him when he examined her using his powers, he had found out that she wasn't dead as her heart was beating slowly so he knew he still had a chance of helping her live.
The doctor who was in charge of the after birth operation had tampered with her blood vessel and had lied to save her skin.
Anyways he had taken care of her already.
' Doctors like her shouldn't be in this field 'he thought.
Liam grew up in a small village, his parents were great mages and possessed lots of powers. They were the protectors of Kel, the village were they lived.
Liam growing up was taught by his parents everything about mages and he had learned to cast his first spell at the age of five.
When he was Twelve his parents had died. There was a little argument between Kel and other villages which later turned into a conflict and then a war, which resulted to their death.
His parents were confronted by over
Twenty mages and Five hundred knights as they were the only Mages in Kel were they lived, the other villages had conquered them and they were killed.
The other villages took in Kel Villagers dividing them equally to each village.
Liam was taken in by Gehon where he was discovered and trained in his mage skills, later on he had learnt swordmanship and excelled in both aspect.
When he was 20 he was transferred to a town called Dolgarts where he worked as a healer improving his healing abilities before he became popular for his deeds and was later transferred to Tinkersville where he worked as a doctor.
He was very good and had never lost to any operation, his deeds were known and spread by his patients and families that he was well respected.
He was identified as on of the best doctors and healer in Tinkersville.
He had been the best and was scared when he had seen Serena's skin become blue due to lack of blood and had almost thought she was dead.
He watched the couples chatting smiling to himself, as he remembered how nervous he felt while he was delivering.
Then something struck him.
He had felt something when he carried the baby girl, some kind of aura.
He was sure he had felt something strong coming from the baby when he carried her but he had no idea what it was as this was the first time something like that was happening.
' Whatever it is, I hope it isn't bad' he thought.
' I should get going, before someone sees me here '
He looked around and left realizing it won't be nice if he was caught by the window side watching the woman he had helped delivered.
He wasn't even sure why he was standing there watching, he just felt this strong connection and felt he should be close to them and thought watching them through the window was the right thing but now realizing how weird it would be if he was caught there.
He decided to leave there before anyone sees him.
He sighed then left for home, remembering the day's ordeal.
