Chapter 1038 - Martin-Hill baby is here! (1) (2/2)
The girls wanted to work also, but they are too excited. They are going to become Aunts for the first time!
Edward and Stella are there as well, anxiously waiting for the good news.
Damien and Smita are on their way. The two of them left from Canada as soon as they heard that Sophia is heading to the hospital, and they should arrive in the evening.
The whole floor is closed off and only selected doctors and nurses have access. They did this for Sophia's security and also because they don't want to risk that someone sees that Aiden is awake and that Sarah's arm is fine. Aiden and Sarah arrived with a helicopter which landed on the roof of the LA Medical Center.
They were all in the VIP room where Sophia and Felix are, and Sophia told them that they can stay during the delivery, but when contractions started she chased them all out.
”Go and check the status…”, Sarah urged JoAnna.
JoAnna bolted to her feet and went in the VIP room.
In the VIP room…
”Sophia, it's time to push…”, the obgyn said.
”Breathe, breathe!”, Felix was chanting while holding Sophia's hand. ”Hee-hee, hoo-hoo, hee-hee…”
”If you say that one more time, I'm going to rip your head off!”, Sophia growled.
Felix was struggling between sulking and supporting her. Whenever contraction comes, she should push and make sure she breathes properly, but instead of that she curses at him. He knows that it's only due to pain, but he is trying to be helpful, just how they practiced in the new-parents class.
”Ah! Felix!”, Sophia bellowed when another painful contraction came. ”This is all your fault! If you come near me again I will cut it off!”
Felix swallowed his grievances and continued rubbing her shoulder with his free hand.
The nurse came from behind JoAnna who was snickering at Felix's predicament while peeking through the door.
”Should you be here?”
”It's OK. I'm a doctor.”, JoAnna said and turned to the nurse.
The nurse had a shock when she recognized her. ”Dr. Hill… I'm sorry! I didn't know it's you. Why don't you go inside?”
JoAnna shook her head. ”If I go in, I will just be another target for Sophia's rage. Can you tell me how close to the delivery she is?”
”Of course, give me a second.”, the nurse got inside, and it didn't take long for her to return. ”She is fully dilated and pushing. It will be any minute now.”
JoAnna waved excitedly to Sarah and Bridgette to come. They didn't dare to enter due to all the screaming and cursing, but they kept the door slightly open and listened to the sounds from the inside. Each of them hoped to be the first one to hear baby's cry.
Emma also arrived and joined three girls at the door. She is working in the hospital today, and she comes to check on Sophia whenever she is not with a patient.
Inside VIP room…
”OK. Here we go… This is the last stretch…”, obgyn said while holding onto Sophia's knees. She is standing between her legs and looking at the top of the baby's head which is ready to come out. ”One more push… wait for the contraction.”
”Breathe, breathe…”, Felix chanted.
Sophia glared at him, ready to shout profanities, but the contraction came…
”AAAAHHHH!”, Sophia screamed while pushing and grappling Felix's hand.
”AAAAHHHH!”, Felix screamed because his hand hurt like hell. He didn't know that his wife is so strong. It felt like she is going to rip his hand off.
Later, when Sophia asked him why was he screaming, he said that he was giving her company, for support. He never admitted that it was due to the pain.
And there was one second of silence… and baby's cries filled up the room.
”It's a girl!”, obgyn exclaimed. ”And she is beautiful…”
