Still in the hospital
"Mas," called Claudia in a soft and weak voice.
"I Love you, my great woman" Alex said, peeping at his wife's forehead.
Again, the doctor and nurse who were cleaning Claudia could only smile at Alex's actions.
"Where is our son?" ask Claudia curiously.
"It's still being cleaned, '" Alex replied.
"Sick," whispered Claudia again.
"Hold on for a little while, yeah," Alex said as he stroked Claudia's forehead.
After the baby is cleaned, it is then handed over to Claudia for IMD aka early meenyusui initiation. The tiny baby is placed at the top of Claudia's hill and left to find the source of her first life.
"Come, a little more," cried Alex as she watched her baby move in search of Claudia's hilltop. Then when the little baby managed to get the hilltop and meenyusui weakly, Alex was moved." That's grand..."
"He's a smart baby, mas," Claudia said slowly.
"Of course, he's our son" Alex replied as she stretched out her index finger to rub the baby's fragile cheek.
Claudia smiled happily, missing all the pain that had approached her. It all pays off with something much bigger and meaningful.
When they came out of the operating room, both families waited anxiously. Meanwhile, Alex throws a big smile that he never shows anyone but his beloved wife. While those who saw Alex's smile felt gawking because they did not believe what they saw.
Alexander who had always put his flat face now instead smiled in front of them so that they felt horrified because they were not used to seeing Alex's smile. Even so, they feel happy and grateful that Claudia is okay inside.
"How's the operation? Smoothly?" ask Ariana Claudia's foster mother.
"Claudia was not operated on, Ma," Alex replied.
"What do you mean, Alex?" Ariana looked even more anxious.
"Claudia gave birth normally in the operating room" explains Alex.
"Thank God" sizzled everyone there.
After some time, Claudia was finally transferred to the VIP treatment room. Likewise with their babies who look comfortable wrapped in warm blankets.
"Well, handsome," cried Angelina as she looked at her second granddaughter in amazement.
"His face is like yours Clau" Alice teased enthusiastically.
"True, let alone his nose," said Ariana.
"It turns out that my prayer was answered by Clau, your second son looks more like you than Mr. Alex. And I'm pretty sure your second child will definitely have a very kind and gentle nature like you unlike your first child who has a cruel and cunning nature like her father," said Alice who was speechless.
"What did you say?" alex asked with a sharp look.
Maxim who knew the atmosphere was tense immediately calmed Alexander so that he did not do something to his wife. Moreover, his wife is currently pregnant he does not want to until something happens to his wife and prospective children.
"Please forgive my wife Mr. Alex, you know for yourself my wife is currently pregnant maybe it's congenital from our baby so she doesn't consciously talk like that," maxim said with anxious feelings.
Hearing Maxim's words made Alex immediately turn toward his wife. Although he was eager to tear Alice's mouth apart, he realized it would anger his wife for hurting his foster sister Claudia. Unlike the others who want to laugh when they hear Alice's words but they hold it so that Alex does not get angry because of them.
"I was so scared when you passed out" whispered Alex.
"Oh, huh? Scared why?" ask Claudia.
"Fear of losing you" Alex replied, holding his wife's hand.
"Where might I leave you. I won't let you be a widower, mas," Claudia replied." There will be a lot of women queuing up to be your wife. Just imagine I'm not willing."
Alex chuckles at his wife's words." I never even thought about it. For me, if I lose you one day, I will lose my world. Where might I find your replacement that easy."
"Gosh, you're always negative thinking about me, yeah," Alex complained.
Claudia just rolled her eyeballs at a glance." Anyway I'm not gonna let Alex be a widower!" Claudia.
"Who wants to be a widower, baby?" alex's reply was getting more and more anxious with his wife.
From earlier his wife always mentioned the word widower, even though her status is still her husband status. Either came from where the thought came from, so his wife always said widower. He had never thought of leaving his wife let alone cheating on her behind. Because only Claudia is the first and last woman for her.
Alice, who had been with the baby in the box, approached Claudia's bed. The woman slightly listened to her sister and sister-in-law's chatter at a glance, then she asked." What the hell, anyway?" alice asked curiously.
"Just talk about random problems, sister," Claudia replied.
"I think you're discussing this baby's name again" Alice said.
Claudia and Alex looked at each other for a moment. Then Claudia said." We've agreed that our son's name will be chosen by Alex, himself" explained Claudia.
"So, what's your son's name, Mr Alex?" alice asked even though she was still afraid of her sharp gaze earlier. But she tried to calm down, because she knew very well, Alex couldn't possibly do anything to her let alone have her sister, husband and family here so she felt a little calm to face Alexander.
All the family members who were there looked at Alex, waiting for an answer from the man. Alex walks over to the baby box and lifts the fragile creature carefully.
"His name is Reagan Alexander Lemos" Alex said as he stared at the tiny baby in his lap." May he grow up to be a brave man, a leader, and also a protector to his family."
"Good name," praised Angelina while slightly clapping.
"I agree with his name, it sounds gallant and beautiful" said Ariana.
Alex looked at his wife and asked for an opinion through the eyes. Claudia nodded lightly while smiling." The name is good, mas," Claudia said.
"Always smart to make children, you are also good at giving names, yes," said David mocking his son.
Alex just grinned wide while shaking his shoulders. Since Claudia became pregnant she had already prepared two names for her child. Although he was very sure that the baby was being carried by his wife's baby boy still he prepared another name for their daughter. Because if her prediction misses then she still has another name for her daughter.
That day, after Claudia and the baby were declared to be fine, their families gathered and congratulated them. There was so much happiness present in the midst of their family along with the presence of the baby.
"Now your duties and responsibilities are increasing," said Henry Claudia's real father while patting his daughter-in-law's shoulder gently. He wanted his son-in-law to be a good and responsible father who always loved his son unlike him who loved other people's children more than his own.
"I know, Dad," Alex replied calmly.
"Take good care of your wife and your children" Henry warned his son-in-law.
Alex nodded and looked towards Claudia who was now hugging their baby. There was a warmth that poured into Alex's chest upon seeing the sight.
"Rest is dear. You just managed to get our baby out and I don't want you back exhausted" Alex said.
"It feels so good to hold this baby" Claudia replied.
"It's true, but we still have plenty of time to hug her." Alex took the baby carefully and handed it to Angelina.
After that Alex fed his wife because he knew Claudia had to recover after a great struggle.
Claudia looked at her husband in amazement. Throughout the process of giving birth earlier, Claudia sees so much love for Alex for her.
"I love you mas Alex" said Claudia.
"I love you too" Alex replied with a happy heart upon hearing the expression of his wife's feelings.
