Chapter 118 - Second Child (1/2)

We were busy with our child. Each day becomes exciting, filled with thrills. Now that Issac became a year older, Stella is slowing adjusting to her work.

One of the best advantages we had was our parents. Stella's mom and my mom were a big help. They took care of us and our kid.

It's been a long since Ray had contacted us. He did came to see Issac but ever since that day, we hadn't heard anything from him.

Then all of a sudden he calls us and says that he got married. It was a great news indeed. No matter how much problem he created for me in the past, I also think of him as my friend.

He did told us about dating Megan. So, we were not very shocked after hearing that he married her. They got married in France and stayed there ever since. Stella was worried about him. We would talk over phone. Although the conversations were short.

I'm happy that Ray is trying to settle down with a good partner. His feeling for Stella won't change. He needs to move on.

Issac turned two years old. It's not that hard to take care of him. The work load gotten lesser. The sleepless nights are almost over. But another new guest came to our life.

Stella got pregnant for the second time. Both of us were shocked. It was completely unplanned. Stella may have agreed to have the baby although I was worried about her.

From the beginning Stella was not fond of kids. It was a tough decision for her to have a child. Now this is the second time. I'm not sure if she's mentally prepared for it. I need to talk it out with her.

” I can do it.” That's all she said with a proud smile. Her eyes were gleaming, filled with joy.

” Are you sure about it?” My heart was still not certain about her answer.

” If I can go through this once, second time won't be a problem.” She said with a chuckle.

” I guess our sleepless nights will continue once again.”

” Ugh! Don't even remind me. I'm already getting tired after hearing it.” I kissed her forehead to ȧssure that I'm gonna stay with her. Everything is gonna be alright.

Just like that nine months have past. It was 17th February. Once again I am waiting outside OT room. Quite nostalgic for me to experience it for the second time. But I'm not that tensed. Neil is present here.

Issac is with his grandparents. I told them to come here after the baby is born. This time it's gonna be a daughter for sure. Since Issac takes after Stella, I hope our daughter takes after me.

” Don't you think it's taking more time than before?” I'm really surprised to see Neil worried. He's acting mȧturė than before.

” Maybe.” I replied.

” So what's it gonna be?” Chuckling softly, He asked.

” Girl of course.” A straight answer without any hesitation. I was confident this time.

” Yeah! even I too think that. I'm really excited to see my niece.” Neil said smiling like a fool.

” Dream on! It's gonna be a boy for sure.” Both of us moved our heads to see the person who said such gibberish. It was Luke.
