The Stranger's Baby Chapter 81
The Next DayAfter a not-so-quiet and long ride, Damien pulled up in front of a private hospital. He parked his car after which he helped himself down and went to the other side to get Rumi.With his hand intertwined with her tiny ones, they made their way to the hospital and straight to Rhoda's ward."Grandma!" Rumi released her hand from Damien's and ran towards Eliana who they both saw outside the ward."Sweetheart!" Eliana crouched to Rumi's height on time and pulled the little girl into a warm hug. She kissed her cheek before pulling away from the hug."How are you, my love?""I'm fine, so happy to see you." She grinned."Is mommy in?""Yes, dear. I'm about to go get fruits. You want some?"Rumi nodded. "Grapes Please.""Okay, my love."Eliana rose to her feet and approached Damien. "Thank you. This will mean so much to Rhoda."Damien nodded. He guided Rumi to the door while Eliana left to get fruits.The moment they stepped in, Rumi rushed over to the bedside. Thankfully, Rhoda

"You want to watch with me?" Ryan asked his mother who was leaning against the wall, watching him for some seconds now.Melissa smiled, nodding, and then she took slow steps to where her son was seated, gently taking a seat beside him."I've got something to tell you." Her voice came out as a whisper."Okay?" Ryan answered with a confused face but turned sideways to face his mother regardless.Melissa reached for the TV and reduced the volume."You know I love you, right?"Ryan nodded."And no matter what happens, I'll always love you."Ryan frowned. "Are you nervous?"Melissa chuckled, trying to ease her nervousness. "No. Why do you say so?”"You look like you just did something naughty and you are about to apologize to me."Melissa had no idea when her cheeks started heating up."No. I'm here to give you some news. I think it's good news but I don't know how you are going to feel about it.""Okay, tell me first, then I will know if I should be happy or not.""We are having a baby."

"How did the visit go? I can't believe our babies failed to recognize our presence. It was almost as though they couldn't wait to meet each other so they hardly noticed us.”Dam smiled proudly. "Rumi took the news quite well yesterday. But a part of me was still scared that she might sort of change her mind when she woke up this morning. I mean, I filled her head with different conversations just right before she went to bed. I don't know how I got so lucky to have such a darling little girl.""I was honestly skeptical about taking her to Rhoda. But I remember our conversation when you said that Rumi had always hoped to be acknowledged by Rhoda.""It was good. They had a great time bonding. She was all smiling on our way here. I don't regret taking her."Melissa smiled. "I'm glad to hear that and yes, Rumi is a sweet little girl. So does that mean they would be spending more time together?" She asked hopefully."The plan was to allow Roe to see her when I'm convinced that Rhoda has ch

Saturday."Last one, I promise. Let's go see which jewelry would look perfect on you." Emily cooed as she and her sister stood right outside a jewelry shop.Emily was about to hold Melissa's hand, ushering her in but Mel shrugged her hand off, pouting. "This feels so weird.""Not again, Mel. You don't have to be so negative. This is the last stop. We are going to grab lunch after this, and then we will go home.""You dragged me out of my bed and out of the house. You are the star of the night, but you spent time searching for the perfect clothes for me. You got me shoes but didn't get a pair for yourself. And the price you paid for my dress! That shit can buy 10 of your dresses. I feel so lost, Em. Today is not my birthday, just in case you had some kind of memory loss."Emily smiled. "I hate that you are so curious and that you are refusing to enjoy the moment.""Between you and I, who got more clothes? Me. You hardly go out except for grocery shopping and to work so you really do no

Melissa playful rolled her eyes. "Can we get going before I change my mind?""Yeah, let's go." Emily led the way out.Stepping out of the house, Emily locked the door; Melissa saw a limousine right in front of their home."This can't be for us, right?""Oh, that's our ride!" Emily smiled."Where do you work again and what's the amount involved? I think you are spending too much for a mere competition.""You don't expect us to ride in a regular car with our classy outfit.""Did you think for a second that there might be someone better than me who would win?"Emily smiled, shaking her head. "And that's because I trust you. Let's go, we don't wanna be late."The chauffeur was standing right outside the door to the passenger seat. Once Mel and her sister got to the car, he opened the door for them.............The ride to the venue was quiet at first. Emily spent time on her phone, giggling at the messages she was responding to while Melissa was lost in her thoughts, looking out through

At this point, Melissa's eyes were filled with heavy tears. She had no idea why she was an emotional mess. She had never been proposed to before, but she had no idea she was going to be such a crybaby when it was her time. Maybe it was because she never saw this coming. At least not today."Babe?!" Damien mumbled, reminding her with pleading eyes that he was still waiting for her response.Melissa nodded. "Yes. Yes. Yes. I'll marry you, Damien." She said, stretching out her left hand to him.Damien's lips curved into a very beautiful smile. He took out the ring from the box and slipped it into her finger. The jewelry sat perfectly on her like a second skin. Damien kissed the ring on her hand before he let go. He rose to her feet, closed the gap with Melissa, wrapped his arms possessively around his waist, and initiated a soft passionate kiss."So this is the dinner party? This is the prize money?" Mel said after they pulled away from the hug.Damien blushed. "It was the best excuse we

"I was the happiest when Damien told us about it." Betty grinned."It's a blessing to be surrounded by so many beautiful grandkids at such an age where I am able to play with them. Ryan is perfect. Thank you for everything you did for him, and thank you for not seeing us in a bad light.""Thank you for also warming up to Rumi. You're truly a blessing to us "Mel smiled shyly. As someone who wasn't used to getting compliments, She felt strange but in a good way.""Damien takes great care of me too. If he isn't the man of dreams, then I wouldn't have said yes to him. And we can all agree that Rumi is a sweetheart. I'm grateful to have you all as my family.""Thank you for engaging my baby, but can I have her back please?" Damien approached them, possessively circling his arms around her waist."Sure! We were only telling her how happy we are to have her." Vicky said."It feels so weird, but in a good way to see you being all lovey-dovey." Betty teased her brother who tried to hide his b

Emily was sitting lazily on the couch in the living room, scrolling through her phone, when she heard a scream. She paused and frowned, then jerked off the couch, making her way to where the loud voice came from. Melissa's room.She badge in and her eyes met with Melissa's back. She was standing in front of a mirror, across the room."Are you Okay?" Emily voiced out with so much worry as she approached Melissa.Melissa turned to face her sister. "Was I that loud, I'm so sorry?"Emily sighed, massaging her temple. "You fucking scared me. I thought you slipped and fell or something.""Yeah, something unusual happened, but I guess I just overreacted."Before Emily could ask what it was, Melissa raised her pajama top, revealing the new change.Emily's lips curved into a smile. "Look who decided to show itself. Hello there you cute little thing!" Emily giggled. She brought her hand to her sister's belly and caressed the little bump."When did this happen? Just now?""I honestly have no ide
