“She’s so tiny,” I whisper in awe.
“She’s perfect,” Sarah chimes as she runs her finger along our baby’s pink cheek.
“She looks just like you.”
“I think we should call her Ella… after your grandmother,” Sarah says.
Grandma Ella taught me how to cook. Naming our baby girl Ella means so much to me. Fresh tears fill my eyes, and I nod as I can’t say anything. I’m too choked up.
“Ella it is,” Sarah confirms, leaning down and kissing our little Ella on the forehead.
I spent a couple of hours with Sarah and Ella before I head out of her room and into the waiting area to see Mom and Dad.
Mom’s asleep on Dad’s shoulder while he rests his head on hers. I realize they must have had a horrible night waiting for news. Trish is here too and Sarah’s Dad.
I walk over to them, and Dad wakes.
“Hey, CJ… Sarah okay?” Dad asks, waking everyone else.
“She’s great. Tired. Exhausted beyond belief. But she’s fine.” I throw my hands in the air. “It’s a girl,” I exclaim.
They all rush me for a group hug, excitement washing over us all.
“We finally have a granddaughter,” Mom chimes.
“We’ve named her Ella, Mom.”
Mom’s eyes mist up as she holds me tightly. “That makes me so happy. It’s a shame Mom’s not here to see it for herself,” Mom cries, and Dad holds on to her tightly.
“C’mon, I’ll take you through to see my girls,” I say.
Mom and Trish lead the way.
My sisters brought Ethan in to meet his baby sister—he wasn’t impressed at all. He wanted to play with the iPad instead. Can’t blame him, You Tube is pretty addictive. But by the end of the visit, he was up on the bed with Sarah, and he even kissed Ella on the forehead which made Sarah cry. Freaking nearly made me cry as well.
Aiden and Jeni walk in, and my sisters all go gooey over Aiden as usual.
“Hi, Aiden,” Skye coos and rushes over to hug him.
He laughs as does Jeni. They’re so used to my sister being infatuated with Aiden. Skye even has a boyfriend, but she still lusts after my best friend. It’s so fucking gross.
“Hi, Skye,” Aiden drones, hugging her back.
Jeni shakes her head as does the rest of the room.
“Okay, everyone, out! Let’s give Aiden and Jeni some time with them,” Dad orders.
“So, Ella, let’s have a look at you, little one.” Jeni walks over to Sarah to take a look at Ella. I can’t help but notice Aiden’s eyeing Jeni’s ass as she bends over.
“Congrats, man,” Aiden says, slapping me on the back. “How’s it feel?”
“Tiring but absolutely amazing. You and Jeni need to have another one!”
Jeni looks back at me and smiles. “Well, there’s something we need to tell you,” Jeni explains.
“Yeah?” Sarah asks, looking right at Jeni.
“We’re pregnant again,” Jeni admits.
