Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 110

The nurses took the babies from them, and asked Jeffery to excuse them so Jane could be cleaned up.

When he got outside the labor room, he decided to call his mother and inform her about Jane’s safe delivery.

“Jane has already given birth?” His mother screamed into the phone.

“Yes mum, two beautiful girls” Jeffery proudly announced to her.

“Oh thank God”

From the background, Jeffery could hear her dancing and singing.

“Quickly, text me the hospital’s address, I’m on my way….” She kept dancing and singing.

“All right mum” he ended the call laughing.

Jeffery texted his mother the address, and called Dele and the rest to inform them too.

Under two hours, the Ademola’s already flooded the hospital with their presence and gifts for Jane and her babies.

“Sharp shooter! Only once, and you scored two goals” Michael hailed Jeffery.

“Hahahahaha” Jeffery laughed at Michael’s comment.

“Congratulations man” Michael shook Jeffery’s hand.

“Thanks man”

“Congratulations bro, I’m happy for you” Dele hugged Jeffery.

“Thanks, hope you are ready for godfather duties?”

“Ever ready, wait until you hear the places I plan on taking them for vacation once they are of age” Dele bragged.

They all laughed at Dele’s comment.

………

One month later

While Jane was pregnant, she made sure to read all the books she could lay on, that were about pregnancy and how to take of the infants, once they were born. But no amount of reading had prepared her for the sleepless nights, she has been having for the past one week. Just the same way, no amount of reading prepared her for the labor pains she had in the labor room.

The girls were growing well and healthy, but lately they have been waking up at night, and feeding almost throughout the night, when she complained to their pediatrician, she told her it was normal for infants.

“There is nothing normal about breastfeeding two babies all through the night” she had argued.

Thank God for Jeffery, who is always awake with her, and helping her to rock the babies to sleep whenever she gets tired.

They were both named Kylie and Millie, and because of their identical nature, Jeffery had a wristband made for them with their names on it. He did this after mistaking Kylie for Millie.

Jane had laughed at him when he ordered for the wristband to be made for the girls, but now, she is grateful for it, because it has saved her the trouble of having to tell visitors which baby is Kylie or Millie.

“Hey….” Jeffery gently woke Jane up. “Wake up, it’s time for breakfast”

Jane opened her eyes and saw a tray of food by her bedside.

“Good morning” she sat up yawning. She barely slept a wink last night as the girls kept waking up to feed, she was finally able to sleep by 5am, when they stopped feeding and slept. Her eyes felt like they had sand in them.

“Good morning” he kissed her. “No need asking how your night was, because I know you didn’t sleep, that’s why I decided to prepare something for you before leaving for work”

“Awww breakfast in bed, aren’t you the best husband ever?” She smiled at him.

“And I have the best wife” he placed the tray on her laps, and opened the plate to reveal omelette, and some toasted bread, beside the plate was a mug of steamy hot chocolate drink.

“Thank you so much Jeff, I don’t know how I would have been able to survive these past month without your constant support, you have been such an amazing husband and father”

“What are you talking about? You are the one who has been staying awake almost every night tending to the girls, you deserve some spoiling girl”

“I love you so much”

“And I love you too, now eat up, while it’s still hot”

Jane who was famished, started eating while Jeffery got ready for work. Kylie and Millie were still sleeping, and if she is lucky, she might be able to nap a little longer after eating, before they woke up.

She has a nanny that comes to helps her with the girls when Jeffery is away at work. Her mother inlaw comes around to help sometimes too. While Vivian Jane’s mother, practically lives in the house because she comes visiting almost everyday, when she is not at work. And she spends quality time with Jane and the girls, making sure Jane doesn’t get too stressed out catering for them.

When Jane commented about this, she told her she already missed out on her life, and she wasn’t ready to miss out on her granddaughters’ lives as well.

Later that evening after work, Amaka went over to Dele’s house.

For the past one week, he has been away in India, where he went to open a branch of his fast food restaurant. He got back that afternoon, and Amaka couldn’t wait to see him. So she hurriedly finished her work at the office, and rushed down to his place.

“Hello pretty” he flashed her his beautiful set of teeth, as he opened the door for her.

She threw her arms around him, “I have missed you so much”

“Me too baby, me too”

Amaka noticed he was talking funny, so she pulled out of the hug, to look at him.

“Why are you talking like that?”

“How do you mean?” Dele asked.

“I don’t know, but something about the way you speak seems different”

“I think I’m talking just normal”

He held her on her waist, looking straight into her eyes.

“I love you babes”

“I love you too”

Slowly, he bent and claimed her lips, kissing her. Their tongues dancing to a rhythm, Amaka felt something strange enter her mouth, so she pulled out from the kiss, and spat out what was in her mouth into the palm of her hands.

To her utter surprise, it was an engagement ring.

She looked at Dele, he was smiling at her. She tried speaking but no words came out.

Dele took the ring from her palm. “People fall in love in mysterious ways, falling in love with you wasn’t planned, but it happened anyway, I can’t imagine my life without you, because you make my life complete, you are my world. Please would you marry me?”

“Oh my God….. Dele are you sure?” She whispered, for fear of breaking down in tears.

“Baby if I wasn’t sure I’m going to marry you, then I wouldn’t have been with you this long, I am very sure”

“Oh Dele” she was already crying.

“Will you?”

“Yes…” She stretched out her left hand to him, and he slipped the ring on her middle finger.

“I love you so much” he kissed her.

Later that night, Amaka called Jane to inform her about her engagement.

“Amaka this had better be important, because I was already sleeping” Jane grumbled into the phone.

“I’m getting married!” She screamed.

“What! Are you serious?”

“Of course I’m serious, Dele proposed this evening”

“Awwwww….. Congratulations girl, I’m so happy for you” Jane teared up as she spoke. For long, she has been praying for her friend to find happiness and love, just as she did with Jeffery.

“Thank you, so get ready because we have a wedding to plan”

“I have been preparing for this, longer than you can imagine”
