Chapter 727: UNEXPECTED
Needless to say Jayden was very anxious today, he couldn't seem to sit still, even when Misha and his father were right with him, trying to calm him down.
"Sit down first," Candice said as she patted Jayden's back. She had just returned from the hospital cafeteria and gave him a cup of coffee to calm him down, while it was raining quite hard outside.
Misha came together with his mother, Candice, while Ramon and Hailee were here for five hours already, waiting for Apple's delivery to finish and now Hailee was with Apple in the delivery room, accompanying her to give birth. They said only one person was allowed in, and Apple decided that it was Hailee.
This had been decided since they found out that only one person was allowed to accompany the soon to be mother. The reasons were; Apple didn't want Jayden to see her in pain and she felt very close to Hailee during her pregnancy, seeing Hailee as her own mother and feeling comfortable with her.
Therefore, now Hailee was in the delivery room, accompanying Apple to give birth.
Jayden had suggested for a cesarean section in this birth, but Apple wanted to do it normally and the doctor said she could do it normally, therefore, there would be no major problems later.
However, they had been inside for an hour and there was no news and this made Jayden even more anxious. He felt like he wanted to break inside and see what was really going on there.
"You won't be able to go inside," said Ramon, his father looked calm, while taking a sip of the coffee that Candice gave him.
Meanwhile, Lexus, Pyro, and Jack were still on their way. They were stuck in traffic due to the heavy rain in the afternoon, and as it was now rush hour, the roads were filled with people going back home from work.
"Of course I can," Jayden said, but he refused to sit down, still looking worried and scratching his head which wasn't really itchy every now and then.
"There will be a lot of blood in there," said Ramon again.
Jayden looked at his father in disbelief when he heard the statement. "I've seen a lot of blood before."
And it went without saying that he had seen worse things than blood, he had even done some himself, though he wasn't proud of it.
But, how could his father argue that seeing blood alone could make him not strong enough to be inside?
It was just that, Ramon looked at him with lazy eyes, he looked like he dismissed his son's words altogether.
"I saw a lot of blood too, son," he said. "But still when I saw your mother give birth to you and your sister, it's a completely different thing."
That was right, no matter how much blood he had seen or how cruel the deeds he had done, seeing the woman he loved in pain and bleeding, it was a completely different and unforgettable experience.
Even now, Ramon could still clearly remember how Hailee screamed in pain and how hard she gripped his hand and also the smell of blood and medicine when he accompanied her in the delivery room.
Ramon had never seen Hailee in pain like that other than when she was giving birth.
Meanwhile, Jayden began to digest what his father had just said and he had to admit that it was true. There was no way he wouldn't have the same reaction as his father and now he wasn't sure he was going to be okay seeing Apple in pain in labor, no matter how much blood he saw.
"Calm down," Candice said, trying to calm Jayden down, though he didn't seem able to sit still until he knew his wife and child were all right.
Meanwhile, it seemed that not only Jayden was in a bad mood, but Misha seemed to be as well.
It wasn't clear what he was thinking, but his forehead was furrowed and his gaze was fixed on the delivery room in front of him and then on Jayden who couldn't stay calm.
Was this what it would feel like to wait for the birth of your own child? This tense? Had he known at that time the pregnancy and birth of his little daughter, would he have been this tense and unreasonable like Jayden?
Who knows…
There was nothing Misha could do because all that had happened and he couldn't turn back time to know all these experiences.
Candice finally managed to get Jayden to sit beside her while telling him that labor sometimes did take a long time.
========================
The childbirth process that Apple had to experience took approximately one hour and thirty-seven minutes, which was because she gave birth to not just one baby, but two babies.
The second baby had a much smaller body size and was not detected during the examination. The doctor said it could happen if both babies had the same heartbeat rhythm and during the ultrasound process, coincidentally, the second baby hid behind his brother's body.
Jayden didn't expect this. No one expected that Apple would give birth to twins and this was certainly good news, as there were very few births of twins in the Tordoff family.
And the two baby boys were born in the evening at exactly nine minutes past eight on a rainy day and were greeted with joy and love from the family members that surrounded them.
"Thank you…" Jayden said very quietly, when he saw the two babies in Apple's arms, so small and so fragile. "Thank you," he said again with tears flowing from his eyes filled with happiness.
He also then kissed his two sons, their hands were so small, but they could hold his entire heart.
Jayden thought he couldn't love anyone more than he loved Apple, but it turned out he could love the two babies as much as he loved his wife.
This time, Jayden understood why it was said that love would only grow, because that was what happened to him.
His love for his two sons did not tax his love for Apple, because his love was growing and from now on, it would only continue to grow.
"I love you, Apple…" Jayden whispered. "I love our children."
Jayden felt that he was the happiest man in the world, a happiness that couldn't even be contested.
He became curious, did his father feel the same when he and his sister were born?
============================
Because they thought that only one baby would be born, they only decided upon one name, but it turned out that when twins were born, Apple and Jayden had to find another name.
And both of them really enjoyed the process.
The name that had been prepared was Logan, which was given to their first baby, and Landon to his twin who was born two minutes later.
Although there were some complications and Landon had to stay in the hospital a few more days because of his smaller body, in the end, after ten days of being there, the baby was allowed to go home.
For now, Apple and Jayden occupied the Tordoff residence and since they had an extra baby they had to prepare another crib for Landon.
The nursery was right next to Apple and Jayden's room, making it easy for both of them to go to their children when they woke up in the middle of the night.
And what made Apple feel better was that Jayden always accompanied her whenever she had to feed Logan and Landon in the middle of the night. He would wake up with her and accompany her there, even making snacks and getting her whatever she needed, even though he had to go back to work the next day.
Jayden had always said that accompanying Apple to nursing at night was a routine he enjoyed, because he felt much calmer and more intimate with his little family, so he wouldn't miss this.
Apple was really grateful for that.
Meanwhile, Hailee and Ramon often come to visit Apple and Jayden, but of course, their main goal was not the couple, but their grandchildren.
And that was the first time Jayden had seen his dad change Landon's diaper when he pooped while he was in his arms, while Apple and Hailee weren't in the nursery room.
"You can change diapers?" Jayden asked in disbelief, his eyes wide as he held the sleeping Logan in his arms. "I can't believe what I'm seeing."
Meanwhile, when Ramon heard his son's comment, furrowed his brows and looked at Jayden as if he had just grown another head.
"You think I never changed your diapers?" asked Ramon. "Surely you don't think your mother was the only one who took care of your needs or a nanny, do you?"
"Ah, that…" Jayden stammered. He didn't really think so, it was just that imagining Ramon changing the diapers didn't seem like it at all in his mind. "I just can't imagine it..."
And evidently, Ramon was quite nimble as he changed Landon's diaper, while the seven-month-old giggled, flashing his toothless smile at his grandfather.
"Of course I've changed your diapers. You even peed on me a few times when I was just about to go to work." Ramon then finished putting on Landon's diaper and picked him up. "Making me late."
Ugh… "Why do I feel like you're complaining to me right now?" Jayden grunted.
