Alexia and Beck returned from their honey, only for them to meet May, tummy bigger than it was, they didn't get any news that the young lady is pregnant, May could see the surprise on their face, she had told the others not to tell Alexia and Beck that she is pregnant, she wanted it to be a surprise.
Hey you!
Hey, what? May said as she dragged Alexia in for a hug but their bump hit each other. Baby, don't want us to hug each other. The two said at the same time.
No dear, I think the babies just kiss. May said.
Really? She asked, as she try to hug May again and the same thing happened.
Whoa! I told you they just kissed.
Which means our kids are going to get married. The two yelled in excitement, Beck and Bernard laughed at the two women's reaction.
When May's voice had died off, Alexia"s voice increased May looked at her in surprise, and now the sound is no longer that of excitement but that of pain.
Wait! What is going on?
The baby, the baby is coming. Alexia screamed as she watch her water break. No, I just wet myself.
No, it's your water, it just broke the baby is coming, come on let's hurry. May said as the two men run in confusion.
Where are you two going? Alexia yelled in her pain, as May held her hand.
To get the car. They said at the same time.
Why leaving the person in pain behind? Someone should help us here while the other gets the car. May suggested.
That is true. They both were running back to Alexia.
Oh, sweetheart, you go get the car. May suggest that the men were confused.
***"
Getting to the hospital, Alexia lay on the bed, she is in pain, and there is nothing Beck can do about it.
Alexia try her best not to scream out her lung, apart from the fact that; she always heard her mom says if you screamed at your first birth, you will end up screaming all the time you go into labor, she also doesn't want Beck to freak out, he is right inside the theatre that Alexia is going to have their baby.
Even though she doesn't say anything, the pain is visible on her face, she is looking pale but beautiful. The nurse walks into the ward.
Gen. Beck, you have nothing to worry about, even though her water had broken more than thirty minutes, you have nothing to worry about, the pain will soon go away.
Are you sure? He asked the nurse nodded, and Alexia let out a small pain from her throat, and Beck grabbed her hand. Hon, I am sorry, sorry that I put you into this pain, I promise after now, we are not going to have another baby. Alexia look at her naughty husband blankly, Bernard couldn't stop himself from laughing while May's face is pasted with fear, she was imagining that she too is going to have such severe pain during labor.
Is it very painful? She asked, now the nurse look at her, then her bump, she understands her fear, so she had to signal Bernard to go away with his beloved wife that is now developing cold feet.
Come on let's leave. Bernard said.
What? I want to be here with her, I want to...
No, you will only make it worse, you are crying already. His words made her realize that she is crying already. She sighed and he left with Bernard.
Is the doctor not coming? And is there no way to stop the pain? His face is looking all flustered, Alexia moves her eyes to see the face of her handsome husband, and she is holding his hand tight.
Damn, it! I can't hold it anymore. Alexia screamed follow by the strong grip of her hand against Beck, he had no idea that his lovely wife had this kind of strength, although she never mentioned that, he is the cause of her pain but her action and eyes are saying that, Beck face go sour, and felt regret that he had put his wife in this pain.
The nurse was about to Laughed at the two couple action, how could they be acting too sweet, but before she could say anything, Beck yelled at her.
Go get the doctor.
No need, I am here already.
Dr. Kang!!! The nurse called. Beck was about to attack the doctor, but hearing Dr. Kang, he is aware that Dr. Kang is a man and Jesse's friend, and he doesn't want a man to deliver his wife.
No way, I can't let a man deliver my wife.
Beck shut up, I don't care who delivers me, even if it's a wolf provided this pain disappears. he was about to say something when the doctor speak, she can't believe this husband of Alexia
I am his wife. That was when Beck realized that the voice is that of a woman, not a man. She moves to the other side and didn't pay attention to Beck, how selfish men could be even in this pain of his wife he still has a choice.
Come on, get to business. Beck yelled at her, she raised the sheet covering up, she spread her legs, Dr. Kang smiled, as she could feel the head of the baby
The babies are ready to meet us. She says, Beck was caught unaware.
Babies! He echoed it.
Yes, she didn't want you to know it's twins, she wanted it to be a surprise. Beck smiled lovely at his wife, he had suspected something fishy, her bump was bigger than usual but Alexia's pain was so obvious that she could smile. Now you should help us with making her relax and then Mrs. Beck, you should push as hard as you can.
The doctor and the nurses get to work, and in no time, she instructed Alexia to push.
Alexia give in her best, and in one go, the first one came out.
She gave the nurse the first one, to clean up, no one is interested in asking about the sex of the child, they just need the pain to stop. Again she gives the second instruction. Push! And Alexia who is more desperate to stop the pain did. The doctor smiled and thumped her. To show she is doing well.
Ahh! She pushed harder, and as her grip become stronger on Beck, there come the second, as if that isn't enough, yet another and another. Beck's eyes bulge out, he can't believe that his wife had four people inside of her, he had always thought that her tummy is overly large for just a baby, not knowing they are four not two.
I filled my promise of giving a playmate to each of my friend's kids. Alexia said and passed out, Beck couldn't believe what just happened, did Alexia promise to give all of them playmates, and now his wife just passed out?
What is going on? Beck yelled his breath is not stable, and the nurses laughed at his reaction, after some time, Alexia's eyes flew open.
I love you!!! She said, Beck grabbed her hand and kissed it.
I love you now and forever.
And I will always love you, my general with the ice heart.
For the next couple of weeks, the Lee and Zul family celebrated non-stop the arrival of the quadruplets, its bundle of joy.
What are you smiling at? Beck circles his hand around Alexia's waist, seeing her smiling sweetly at their parents holding the kids in their hands.
I am thinking of having more kids.
What?
Probably, eight. Alexia said, Beck, claiming her lips.
Let's save the birth stress for loving ourselves till the end of the world.
This is not where the journey of Beck and Alexia ends because they keep loving themselves until the end of the world and all their friends have a happy ever after as well
