Chapter 31 finale
Alexander
It's finally the big day, my little princess is getting married, no matter how much I convince myself that this is what will make her happy, I still can't accept her leaving so prematurely, I thought I'd have her with me for another ten years, my little sister who a few months ago came to my office to complain about our mother, or to ask me for money to go out with her girlfriends, the one who cried in my arms when I scolded her and left sticking her tongue out, I think our separation is too soon, now it's not me anymore she'll come and see when she's sad or happy, it's really selfish but I really have a hard time
Of course I have a wife also very young but I still can't see my little sister as a woman she's still my baby to me she's like my first child and you can tell me anything I know that premature marriage must be hiding something, it's definitely a pregnancy, since no one wants to tell me anything, I don't prefer to talk about it
Alex: come on, stop sulking
Me: no I'm not sulking
Alex: if you do, today is a happy day, change your mind before going to see her at the risk of ruining her day, that's not what you want, is it?
Me sighing: Of course not…
Alex changing the subject: which tie do you prefer?
Me heading for the door: your choice will be mine
I hear her complaining behind the door which ends up making me laugh, when I arrive at her doorstep we were preparing her
Me entering my head: can I enter?
Thea smiling: yes, yes big brother is coming…
Me sitting in front of her: you're so beautiful, you know?
Thea in a small voice: thank you
We stand there looking at each other for a few minutes before I decide to end it.
Me in a serious tone: are you sure you feel ready to take the plunge?
Thea kneeling in front of me: yes yes big brother, I can't wait to embark on this new adventure, I'm so in love with him you know? now i know i can leave with a light heart, i know that wherever i am i won't have to worry about you or Julia anymore because today you have someone who will loves from the depths of his being and who will always take care of you
I am very moved: if this is your choice, I can only support you, but know that wherever you find yourself in this world, whatever problem you encounter, this house will always remain yours, it will always be your landmark. you can come back to it whenever you want or when you feel lost in this life
Thea on the verge of tears: yes I know, I know that you will always be there for me and that I can always count on you, you have been like a father to me all these years, know that I will miss it a lot all this time to piss you off
Me smiling: nothing prevents you from continuing, here is a little wedding gift for you
Thea opening it: aren't you serious, are you offering us an island?
Me: everything is ready to welcome you for your honeymoon, I hope you will love spending time there
Thea throwing herself into my arms: thank you very much big brothers
Me: promise me to be happy
Thea: promise me too that you will be loved and cherished by your wife, promise me that you will no longer hinder your happiness and let yourself go love her as much as humanly possible
With these words we throw ourselves into each other's arms again until we are interrupted by the weeding planer "did you cry my bride? as Thea replies, sticks her tongue out at him and I let them continue to prepare
Alex
Finally Thea and her lover said yes during a ceremony that moved more than one, it's been a while since the reception started and it's up to my darling to make a speech for someone who doesn't. don't really like to show his feelings in front of people, his speech will be really brief
Alexender clearing his throat: a few years ago if I had learned about this marriage I would have been against it, I would never have let my little sister get married so young but thanks to this woman who came into my life today today I learned what it is to love, love is not only saying nice words to a person, love is not only offering expensive gifts or becoming a poet, love it is to suffer when the being to love suffers, to love is to put the well-being of the other before his own, to love is to find his source of happiness in that of the being to love, to love is to make happy the other without taking it as a sacrifice and without expecting anything in return, to love is to live and there is no Age for that, you can meet love when you are young or adult; first of all I want to thank this wonderful woman who shares my life for making me understand her and finally I want to congratulate them and I ask you to be happy that's all that matters
When he finishes the applause is heard in the room he goes to greet the married couple before coming to kiss me languidly, I still have chills and tears in my eyes
Me with a trembling voice: it's so beautiful what you just said
Alexander: that's all you make me feel
We kiss again before being interrupted by Julia
Julia: lovers… I'm sleepy mum
We look at each other and we giggle, I get up and I take my daughter to bed, she must be very tired, it's very late, I'm not going downstairs either, I'm too tired
Two years later
Me screaming: stop running around like this
They don't even calculate me I don't want to start chasing after them they keep going 'til I finish their sister's braids they'll earn their punishments I don't even know what I did to deserve these two devils, two boys all of a sudden, children that I suffered to bring into the world prefer to listen to their father I still remember that day like it was yesterday
*FLASHBACK
I was sleeping when the urge to go to the bathroom woke me up, I get up again the umpteenth time of the night and I head for the bathroom, I make as little noise as possible but Alexender wake up anyway
Alexander: do you need something?
Me: no, no I just want to go urinate in peace
I'm really disgusted with everything, I've had contractions for several days in the hospital, they told me that it's called Braxton's contractions and that it wasn't a real contraction, I'm at the end of my life everything annoys me, and my nerves I spend it on my husband, I don't know why but it's stronger than me
I was in front of the mirror still contemplating this big belly when I feel like a hot liquid running down my legs, I just pissed, am pissing on myself, the puddle on the ground shows me a color fluid that does not look like urine
Me screaming: lexis, lexis come see
Alexender running towards me: what is the matter my heart?
Me: I'm not sure there's a liquid flowing I think I'm...
Alexender: your water is breaking my heart, we are finally going to meet our little ones
Me: That's all you care about, isn't it?
He doesn't say anything and leads me to the shower stall so I can clean up and change then, when I'm done he drives me to the hospital with everything we needed, my mother in law can't follow us now since the little one is sleeping, she has to wake up and drop her off at Thea's before returning to the hospital
Me between two violent contractions: call my mother
Alexender continuing to drive: I've done it before
I now understand why I was told at the hospital that I had a false contraction because here, what I'm living, it's really something else I want to smash everything, and really see him so serene make me want to hurt him
We arrive at the hospital a few tens of endless minutes later and we are quickly taken care of and taken to the room we had reserved for the occasion.
It will soon be 5 hours of time we spent in this hospital but I'm still not dilated enough, I'm still 3 cm away, I'm so frustrated, I'm in pain, and the useless other that turns in round next to me
Alexender: my heart, there is still time for you to be given the epidural, it will relieve you a little, I can no longer bear to see you suffer like this
Me falling in tears: don't touch me, oh my God it's the last time, I'll never have a baby again
Alexender: okay my heart will be the last
When a nurse comes back to see us I end up accepting the epidural, I really start to feel tired and can no longer bear this pain, I have already spent more than 10 hours here and now I don't even count anymore
Alexender to the nurse: I want to see the doctor
A few minutes later he comes back to see us
Alexander: get the babies out to him
Doctor: let's give her some more time to see if she can bring them to life on her own
Me: yes I want to wait a bit
I don't know if I still have the strength to push but I also want to give birth to my children on my own as it should be done, like all women fund
Alexender in a calm but threatening tone: I'm not going to repeat myself twice, get me these babies out, my wife will soon be in labor for 15 hours and is not even 7 cm away
I did not know it was so hard, we are shown something else on TV, I feel really tired, I feel my eyelids getting heavy, I really want to sleep
Alexander
I'm tired of seeing my wife suffer for all these hours without being able to help her, I don't want to lose my wife, she's my priority, if the babies don't want to come down or the glue doesn't does not want to open we will have to go through another way
Doctor: I suggest that we give her about thirty minutes to see if the babies will descend a little more, she did me very well by her desire to give birth on her own, and since she nor the babies are in danger, I would like to give him as much as possible this opportunity
Me frankly getting angry: I'm her husband, I order you to get these babies out
Doctor: she is my patient, not you
Is this guy dumb or is he pretending to be?
Nurse: doctor the patient has just fainted
We all run towards her, my wife does not move, I am seized with fear to the guts, what will become of me without my wife, children we could make or adopt but Alex there are only 'a
Me putting myself in front of the doctor: if something bad happens to my wife, I promise to close this hospital, put you all out of work, and you especially never again you will practice in this country, or in any country elsewhere
Doctor: sir let me do my job
Me: That's all I've been asking you to do all this damn time...
I feel someone take me by the shoulder when I turn around it was my mother, I let myself go in her arms, I'm really scared, I'm really really scared, I was so up against the obstetricians that they won't let me go home with her, it's her mother who will attend the birth of our children
A few hours later we find ourselves in our hospital room, with my wife and our two sleeping little boys, I am so relieved, I still do not intend to apologize to this jester, if he had done his best work we would not have found ourselves in this situation
When she opens her eyes I was reluctant at first to approach her but my joy was so great that I can't help kissing her and thanking her for these beautiful gifts that she comes to offer me
END OF FLASHBACK
Me shouting again: do you listen to me when I speak?
Alexander entering the living room: what is going on here?
Me sighing: they're your boys, they want to make me a goat
Alexander: Eden, Robin
The two courses throw themselves into the arms of their father as if they were doing nothing wrong 'welcome dad"
Alexander: why don't you listen to mom?
Robin: she doesn't want to play with us
Eden: since then, she's been with Julia doing braids, even Julia doesn't want to play with us tonight
Alexander: Really? come on let's go do stuff between boys
Me: while you're at it, set the table for dinner at the same time
Later in the night
We were putting away the dishes when Alexander told me the good news
Alexender: I went to see my niece today you know what I learned?
Me no
Alexander: the children will have a new cousin
Me surprised: already?
Alexander laughing: William is not here to joke
We laugh together at what he has just said, I'm really happy for them, but me, whenever I feel like having other children, the twins are always there to dissuade me from "laughing" will wait a bit longer for them to grow
He leaves to wish a good night to the children and I leave to take a good cold shower because tonight I intend to make it very hot, when I leave the bathroom I put on a red lace lingerie set that I have just worn. offer accompanied by a pair of Tallon chair and I settle in our bed waiting for him without forgetting to leave him a message "join me in our room"
When he enters our room he joins me in bed, he kisses me, kiss to which I do not have to pray before answering
Alexender: you are the best thing that ever happened to me, I love you so much
Me: I love you too sweetheart
