Xavier’s POV
I went into the nursery to see them laughing at the tinkles in their room, they were all awake, I touched their cheeks each,
“Did you miss daddy, daddy is sorry for leaving mama and you three all alone, especially mama, daddy’s is sorry mama is behaving like that, she is the sweetest you know, the kindest ”
I paused starring at their confused faces and laughed, they are so adorable, these kids.
The next day, I carried the babies, one, (the girl), at my front and the others in a double stroller, we have the triple stroller but I didn’t want to use it, Jessica took the girl from me at a point and I smiled, she had been relatively calm since she woke up, she even agreed when I suggested going to the hospital, I was surprised but I liked she is feeling a little better, I didn’t drive, after arranging the babies seat, I placed them in but Jessica insisted on carrying the girl, perhaps to make it up to her for yesterday.
Our driver drove us to the hospital and we started setting the stroller again and putting them in it, people were cooing at the babies as we passed, Jessica smiled a bit, even though it was small, it was sincere and not just lip service, we arrive at the doctor’s office, knocked and was ushered in, he then took us to the doctor who is going to be out therapist.
We agreed that she will be coming to the house because it’s too early to be taking the babies outside and we can’t leave them at home, alone, okay not technically alone but we are not there to watch them, we left after a little discussion with them, we then went to get our kids injected with that immune medicine for kids, we went home but stopped at a short distance from our house, we decided to stroll a little with the babies,
“Am sorry about yesterday Xavier, it wasn’t intentional ”
“Of course I know it isn’t intentional, you don’t do things like that, am really sorry for the way I neglected you, sorry Angel, it won’t happen again ”
“You did nothing wrong love not now, you have been a very supportive husband okay and am thankful honey okay ”
I nodded, she interlinked our hands together and we strolled more light-hearted than before, I am glad I made a good decision of us going to the hospital, we reached home soon and set the kids the nursery, she feed them directly from her boobs this time, i gave them space to bond with each other, I watched as the kids smiled at her every now and then,
“An really sorry Michelle, mummy is sorry okay”
She said to each baby, they either smile at her or touch her cheeks, it was really a heartwarming scene, I hugged her from behind, placing my forehead on her shoulders, I didn’t say anything just stayed like that, we decided to let the kids sleep with us, after eating we all retired to bed.
The next morning, I went to the gym, (it’s on the ground floor of the house ), and saw Jessica there,
“Good morning Xav, how was your night?”
“Good morning baby, good and yours?”
“Refreshing, the kids are at the nursery playing with the maid, so I wanted to exercise a little before they get hungry ”
“Okay, then, let me join you”
“How was your trip? Hope you finished everything early?”
“Yes I did and it went well”
“Okay, am glad ”
“Grandfather and Aunt is coming today, I got a message this morning ”
“Okay then, we are waiting ”
We did a couple of exercises and called it a day, we took our bath and Jessica used a breast pump to get milk for the babies, she filled their feeding bottle and put it into their warmer, she went down and fed them a little so they can’t be hungry, those three eat a lot, they are lucky Jessica can produce lots of breast milk if not, they are having formula.
Grandfather and Aunt came and monopolized them, we just left them and we went for the therapy because the doctor came, it took as long as an hour and it was very good, Jessica was open and me too, so it was smooth and I can notice Jessica’s tense shoulders relaxing a bit, I am grateful I made such decision, we finished and the doctor left, I kissed her tenderly and hugged her as she melts into my arms,
“It’s alright Jess, you are doing great”
