“It is better for you to sleep, Wifey. After awake, you can eat something. I know you are still tired,” said a red-haired man. She saw his husband’s right hand stroking her head – his lovely spouse. She definitely looked deadly tired. However, Lavena still insisted on staying awake and finished the food provided by the hospital where she gave birth.
When he heard this, the opposite sex shook her head while continuing to eat the food that had been delayed. Now, the green-eyed woman was in a unique room where there was only herself and her beloved man. Meanwhile, the head of the family did not argue with his lovely lady’s actions and stopped stroking the top of the woman’s head.
The atmosphere in the room was quiet again because the conversation between the two had stopped. The seconds went by so slowly for Tristian. Every now and then, he glanced at the door as if waiting for someone to arrive. However, the wife was still focused on food and did not realize what her lovely spouse is doing.
A woman who gave birth to her first child an hour ago still had not finished her food, so she put it on the nightstand. Meanwhile, the burly man sitting on the right side of the wife’s bed could only silently watch and make no comments. “I am okay, Hubby. I just-”
Before Lavena finished speaking, there was a knocking sound, so they turned their heads toward it. With no one asking, as soon as possible, Tristian stood up and walked toward the source of the sound. Meanwhile, Lavena, who was still tired, could only stare in that direction as she lay down on the bed. “Who is coming, huh?” he muttered, confused.
The bearded man and bushy sideburns had already arrived at the door afterward he opened the door. He was a little surprised when he saw that four people were standing there. “Mom, Dad,” Tristian said. The man looked at the parents of his lovely wife. “Father and mother-in-law. Please come in, everyone.”
“Thank you, Son,” said Sir Elmer kindly. The others just nodded and did not answer at all.
A man, who had a height of one hundred and eight-five centimeters, opened the door wide, then shifted to the left so that the four guests could enter the room. Meanwhile, Lavena, who was still lying on the bed, tried to sit up, seeing that her parents and her parent-in-law had visited, but her father-in-law prevented this from happening. “It is okay. Do not sit now. You can lie down.”
The five of them stood near Lavena without further ado. The biological mother of Alexa Jocelyn Heart felt a little uneasy because she saw the look on her biological father’s face that looked so piercing that the long-haired woman could only stay silent. “How is your condition now, Lavena?” asked Sir Elmer, breaking the ice between them.
“My condition is better, Father-in-law. Thank you for coming to visit me,” replied Lavena politely. Meanwhile, a man who had a facial resemblance to his son spontaneously looked at a middle-aged man who carried a long shiny stick with an eagle’s head at the end. They stared at each other for three seconds, then the biological father of Tristian Varden Writh turned his attention to his daughter-in-law.
“Lavena, where is our granddaughter? I want to see her.” The chubby man deliberately asked this question because he wanted to see what that tiny baby looked like. Whereas the other five people only paid attention to the conversation that was going on between Lavena and Sir Elmer.
“Our daughter is in another room, in the special baby room, Father-in-law. The nurse said, if Alexa gets thirsty later, they will bring her here.” The twenty-year-old woman answered honestly. Lavena did not dare to look the other way, as if she wanted to avoid someone.
“What did you say?” The middle-aged man frowned as if he did not hear the other person’s words. Tristian, who had been observing the conversation of his lovely lady with his biological father, was confused because he understood Sir Elmer’s character.
“Pardon?” Lavena still did not understand the meaning of her father-in-law’s question. Both eyebrows were also raised because the intelligent woman still felt anxious, so what she could do was wait for an explanation from the other person.
“What did you call my granddaughter earlier? You called her with a name, an unusual name in Zlatav, to be frank.” Sir Elmer clarified the question so that his daughter-in-law finally understood and found the correct answer to give to the man.
“Alexa. Her name is Alexa Jocelyn Heart.” Lavena answered the question initially asked by the husband of Madame Phoenix Lily Katira. Now the four people there – not including Tristian were confused. However, Alexa’s parents understand, so they have not voiced their opinion unless someone asks about it.
“Where did you get that name, Lavena?” asked Sir Elmer, curious. Lavena had not answered yet, but the man, who had a height of one hundred and eighty centimeters tall instead, immediately turned to his son as if asking him for an answer. “Son?”
“We got the name from our dream, Father,” Tristian answered honestly, which was supported by a nodding Lavena.
“Our dreams? Did you mean your dream or her dream, Son?” Sir Elmer asked further. He seemed unsatisfied with the answer, so he deliberately did this.
“Our dream, Dad. Lavena and I had the same dream when Goddess Magia asked us to name our daughter Alexa Jocelyn Heart. Did not I tell you before?” Tristian again answered the question from his father, so the fifty-two-year-old man was silent for a moment, as if he was trying to remember something.
Tristian’s parents and Lavena’s parents were so shocked when they heard such an answer that the atmosphere returned to silence for a moment. Meanwhile, a silver-haired man could only shake his head, but he said nothing at the moment. Now, the emerald-eyed man looked at his beloved wife, so they both looked at each other. They seem to communicate through eye signals.
“No. You have not told us the name, Son. But, whatever. I thought both of you did not prepare a name for her. Now, we want to see our granddaughter. Can you show us where Alexa is?” Sir Elmer remembered why they had come to the hospital.
“Sure, Dad. I will-”
Before Tristian had time to finish speaking, there was a knock, so everyone’s attention was focused on it. Someone opened the door from the outside. It was revealed a woman dressed as a nurse was holding a baby. He walked closer to the patients and their families, then greeted everyone politely, knowing that they were not ordinary people but from the noble class.
When they arrived on the right side of the bed, the nurse said to Lavena, who looked like she was already shining, because she wanted to rock her first child immediately. “Mrs. Writh, this is your baby. You can breastfeed it. I will be back in an hour to get it.”
“Well. Thank you, Sister,” said the young mother.
The nurse also gave the baby girl to her biological mother and was well received by the blonde woman. Lavena immediately weighed her lovely daughter, who still looked asleep, unaffected by the surrounding environment. As soon as possible, the nurse left, so the four guests began to approach Alexa’s mother because they could not wait to see what her granddaughter looked like.
“May I see her, Lavena?” asked Sir Elmer, hopefully.
“Sure, Father-in-law. You can see her,” answered Lavena. A beautiful woman, who was still weak from childbirth, began to hand the baby to the other person, and the father-in-law was carrying his granddaughter with joy.
“She is exquisite. Look at her, My Love.” The stocky man spoke to the black-haired woman who had been by his side. Sir Elmer lowered his gaze slightly towards his wife so that Madame Phoenix Lily Katira could see clearly. Meanwhile, Lavena’s parents looked annoyed but could not do anything about it.
“You are right, Husband. Welcome to this family, Alexa.” The forty-five-year-old woman greeted the baby in a friendly manner. Her right hand even poked the granddaughter’s cheek, which was so adorable in her judgment.
The feeling of the man wearing a dark brown coat suddenly fluctuated when he saw the baby’s calm face. A desire had begun to arise in his heart, so he could not wait to say this to Tristian’s parents, who were still holding baby Alexa. “Sir Elmer, may I-”
