“Certainly,” the midwife assured, and served her with tea.“Apart from tea, what else would you like to eat?” The midwife asked.“Any food would suffice,” she responded and sipped her tea.“It is all right.”She looked at the baby's cot and saw the birth details, and was glad. She took her tea gradually, and soon, the midwife arrived with her breakfast.“Thank you, midwife, for the meal.”“You are welcome. After your meal, you will breastfeed her while you prepare for your birth.” The midwife, who was informed by her colleagues that she was reluctant to breastfeed the baby, advised, and studied her countenance.

She picked her up and requested, “Kindly help me with the infant formula.”To avoid upsetting her, she prepared the formula for her and she fed her baby. Subsequently, she took her bath and laid on the bed. Then

“I support that,” Susan agreed and attempted to get back into the bus. To avoid the General Manager disapproving their request, the team disagreed with her.“No, you are his secretary. He may need you to write the report.”Just as they expected, he smiled and took a step to walk away, Susan got the message and disembarked at once. Then, she announced, “I give up. I would rather not be the Jonah in your boat.”They laughed loudly and one of them teased, “The Jonah has stepped off, boss.

“You said my mind.” The elders said in unison.“I got it.” Emma pointed out. “Thank you for the compliment.”It was obvious that the testimony of the burial of Beck would remain in the memory of the people for a long time. Now, there were over fifty elders in his compound, while the youths were innumerable. They actually came to sincerely cheer him up, but his nieces had a different opinion. They saw them as guests and treated them as such. Soon, the caterer served them with a special fruit juice, which was strange to them. It was a mixture of watermelon, carrot, and pineapple. They relished it and commended. Before they were through with the juice, they were served with cabeza, which was spiced with native ingredients. Nevertheless, the merriment was unending.“Oliver,” Ada called out.“Yes, aunty,” he answered and walked to her.“I learned that you shared the souvenirs in the field.”“Yes Aunty.”“Good, do we have leftovers?”“Yes. There are many of them, and we had offloaded them.”

Before the couples got downstairs, they had set the table and waited for them. Soon, everyone took their seats at the dining table, and Uncle Emma declared the dinner open. This time, Oliver had a seat at the table. Now, Uncle Emma began to wash his hands and he recalled that those hands had a handshake with the governor and other dignitaries, and teased. “Thank you, my in-laws, for the opportunity to have a handshake with the number one citizen of the state. I wish I won't have to wash my hands anymore.”They laughed happily and Oliver relished the joke.“Big Uncle, I saw you on the television,” Regan pointed out.“Me?” The bewildered Emma asked anxiously.“Yes, when you shook hands with the dignitaries,”“Even when you were walking in and displaying your new walking stick up and down.”At that point, Emma could not restrain himself from laughing because he was certain that he truly displayed his new cane out of proportion.“When was the event aired? I would have loved to watch it. I

“Baby, get up. It is time for dinner.” He announced after he gave her a peck. She opened her eyes slowly, and he helped her to get up. He walked her to the dining table and they took their seats.“Thank you, dear,” Susan appreciated. He opened the dishes, and they began to eat. “Do you like it?” Tony asked after she took the first spoon.“Yes. The hotel cooks very well.”“You are correct. You must be a good cook. Am I right.” Tony remarked, and looked into her eyes. She smiled and asked, “Why do you think so?”“My instinct tells me.”“Your instinct is correct. Permit me to ask, what is your favorite food.”“My favorite food is Susan,” he responded quickly and watched her laughing happily.“So, what will be my favorite food?”“Me.” He pointed out and laughed softly.“Let me eat you as much as I can before we depart.”She got up from her seat and gave him an affectionate kiss.

“She is such a cute baby,” Francis pointed out. “Just like me,” Flora teased. They laughed softly and Felly announced, “Now that you are here, you will be their companions. I will return with her dinner when I'm done.”“It is okay, big sister,” Francis agreed.“I got it, big sister. When will they be discharged?” Flora asked.“I wouldn't know until her husband returns. See you later.”“It is okay.”Felly and her husband walked out of the ward, but Terry, whose job was obvious, steadied his eyes on the baby.“Terry, you can join your parents. I will help you to protect the baby until you come back.”Howbeit, the excited Terry got down from the bed when he was convinced that the baby was safe.“Thank you, for your help, Aunty Flora,” he greeted and followed his parents.

Now, Sharon picked interest in their discussions and looked on.“Hello, Felix. What's up?”“Is she ill? Why is she sleeping too much?”Felly took another look at Sharon, and studied her outlook before she replied, “She is up, and she is breastfeeding the baby.”“I can give him a call,” Sharon volunteered when she perceived that he was distressed. Then, Felly informed, “She will give you a call now.”“Okay,” Felix accepted and cut the call at once. Then, Sharon adjusted the baby and dialed his number. Nevertheless, all eyes were on her.

There is nothing to worry about. Okay?”“I see. How is the baby?”“She is fine, and missing you.”“Tell her I miss her too. I will be with you tomorrow.”“Tomorrow? We can't wait.”“It is all right.
