Chapter 127: New member

Ch. 127 / 164 Sep 17, 2024

A cool summer, in the warm, peaceful house of the husband and wife David and Ella have just welcomed a new member named Zelda.

Back to the past.

At the company.

David was busy with documents that needed his approval when suddenly his phone rang.

He opened the phone, it was his mother calling.

"David, Ella suddenly had a stomach ache and fainted, she is in the emergency room. You want to go to the hospital."

David hung up the call, forgot to put on his jacket, put his phone in his pocket, and ran to the hospital.

Because his wife is about to give birth, so he is very excited.

From the office, he rushes to the elevator and waits for the elevator for less than fifteen seconds, he feels impatient, occasionally looking at the watch in his right hand.

Right now, whatever, he doesn't care. The only thing he thinks about is his wife's safety.

Arriving in the parking lot, he got into the driver's seat, not even having time to buckle his seat belt. He's at a very fast pace.

At the intersection in the city, an accident between two trucks caused a traffic jam.

Sitting in the car, David angrily punched the steering wheel, gritting his teeth. "Damn it, why is there a traffic jam?"

Fifteen minutes passed.

For everyone, it was normal, but to him, fifteen minutes felt like fifteen years.

If he kept waiting, he would go crazy. He couldn't wait any longer.

David parked on the side of the road. Under the slightly harsh morning sun, he jogged to the hospital. He had only one goal in mind: to be his wife.

He must be by her side when Ella gives birth.

People on the street looked at the man wearing elegant clothes, running as fast as the wind in the sun, they both felt funny and pitiful.

A few girls were sitting at the sidewalk bar when they saw him running, clearly tired but determined, trying, they felt admiration in their hearts. They took out their phones to capture the moment.

Hospital.

The track was more than a kilometer long, but David ran for less than fifteen minutes. He's really good.

Arriving in front of the emergency room, as soon as he saw his parents and father-in-law, David wanted to faint because both legs were shaking.

Mr. Roy rushed to help his son. "David, what happened?"

Looking at his current form, sweat-drenched the back of his shirt, shirt unbuttoned from his pants, tie loose, crooked on the side of his neck. On his forehead, sweat trickled down.

"I'm... okay? My wife?" Although tired, he still only remembers his wife first.

Mr. Stephen looked at his son-in-law, he was moved, and couldn't hold back his tears, as expected, his daughter Ella did not choose the wrong person.

Mr. Roy helped his son sit down on a chair, he said in a gentle voice. "David, rest assured, Ella will be fine. Sit back and rest a bit, why are you jogging like that?"

"I got stuck in traffic, so I went for a run. I wanted to be with my wife." David gasped as he answered his father.

The sound in the emergency room interrupted their conversation.

The doctor and nurse walked out at the same time, they pushed a small cart, and inside was a newborn baby girl. "Doctor, how is my wife?" David asked urgently. Then he quickly ran into the room, leaving his father-in-law, parents, the doctor, and two nurses bewildered.

For the first time, they saw a young man waiting for his wife to give birth, not looking at the baby's face but running in with his wife.

Inside the room, Ella had just given birth, her whole body was tired, and her tired eyes were closed.

As soon as she heard him call, she opened her eyes to call him, but he covered her mouth with his hand.

"Don't say anything, I get it all, you did a great job. You worked hard, honey." David said in a small voice.

Ella heard him say, relieved, she closed her eyes to rest. Having him here, she feels secure.

The nurses quietly left the room.

The room is only for the couple, rest a bit, she asked. "David, where's our daughter?"

He answered softly. "Your parents and father are holding the baby. I'll take you over to see our baby in a moment."

Then he took her small, still-shaking hand. "Thank you very much, my wife. You are my most precious happiness." He didn't hesitate and kissed her forehead.

The kiss made her heart swell with happiness. Ella smiled, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Why are you thanking me, you have given me so much happiness."

He nodded, stroking her hair. They looked at each other and smiled brightly. All their lives, they only give that smile to their partner.

David and Ella welcomed their first daughter for the first time. She has eight parts like Ella, and two parts like David. But David doesn't know how to take care of children, he's someone who doesn't like baby noises, so Zelda is all taken care of by her and his mother. Fortunately, Zelda is very good, just eats and sleeps, doesn't cry at night, and is taken care of by Ella and her grandmother, so she is getting chubby and lovely. Quick, Zelda is two years old, she's learning to speak.

In the evening, while giving Zelda milk to drink, Ella watched TV with her husband. David saw Zelda bring her hand to her mouth, he frowned, reaching out to remove her hand from her mouth. Ella smiled. "Please carry Zelda."

David shook his head. "I do not like it."

Ella sighed, he lied. It's obvious that he loves children, and loves to hold Zelda, but he's afraid of dropping her. He is a very loving father to his children. Zelda was lying on Ella's lap, she rubbed her eyes with her hand, making small sounds.

Realizing she was sleepy, Ella patted Zelda's small back, she leaned against her mother's chest, quickly closing her eyes.

Seeing that David loved Zelda very much, but did not dare to approach her, Ella eventually had to make a plan with his mother, they pretended to go shopping so that he could stay at home to take care of Zelda.

Mrs. Emma smiled. "When I gave birth to Rika, David did not dare to hold Rika, so he did not know how to take care of children. He was afraid that Zelda would get hurt. Tomorrow, just leave him at home with Zelda, and we will go shopping. "

"Yes." Ella agrees to Mrs.'s plan. Emma.

"I'm busy tomorrow." David sat watching TV and said.

Ella tries to seduce him. "You work and take care of Zelda at the same time. She's very good, not disruptive. I and my mother have urgent work. Rika is at university, she doesn't come home until evening."

"OK." David reluctantly accepts. His eyes darted into the crib. Although he didn't want to, he had to agree to take care of Zelda.
