634 – Springtime Sea – 2
This is already my fourth birth. If you’ve been through this much, you might get used to it, but no matter how many times you go through it, you won’t get used to it.
I feel nervous every time and anxious every time. Every time I’m afraid that something might go wrong, I end up looking for God every time.
‘Nothing will happen.’
Nevertheless, I tried to suppress my negative emotions and took a deep breath.
There was nothing wrong with the previous three births. Lise, who was weak as a child, gave birth to Friedrich safely. Rin, who is stronger than Rize, will finish her birth safely. Of course she will.
Because Lynn was strong and healthy even before her pregnancy. Even after pregnancy, she enjoyed walking without overdoing it.
‘It’ll be okay.’
She consoled herself by gently holding her trembling legs.
Now let’s just think positive thoughts. Lynn said she would wake up healthy and ride her black cat to relieve her sore body. My sixth child will grow up well with the attention of children who have started walking.
She has already decided on her name. I plan to name her Leon if she’s male and Alina if she’s female. The child will bear the name of Crasius, unlike the triplets who carry on the name of Catoban and Frederick, who carries on the name of Naiad.
‘Leon Crasius of Wiridia.’
Maybe she could be Alina Crasius of Lydia.
Of course, when she mentioned Lydia in front of Rin, she said she would pass it on if Sangjae was there, but she actually doesn’t care whether Sangjae is there or not. Of course, it would be nice to have her, but even without her, she is my precious child. It is no problem for her children to inherit her father’s estate.
So, let her be born safely. This dad is preparing everything, everything. All you have to do is show up smiling by our side.
“A-pa.”
“Pedi?”
While she was calming down, Ajang Peddi walked across the hallway from her.
I asked the saints to play nice with Pedi, but it seems that Pedi came all the way here looking for her elders.
‘Even kids know everything.’
Although many of the memories of that time will disappear as they grow up, children also have eyes and ears. There is a different atmosphere than usual, and adults who always smile at you are gathered in one place with serious faces? Even Fedira can’t help but notice this strange incident.
No. She may be more sensitive to other people’s feelings because she is a pure child who is not affected by the world.
“Lord Soga. How did you come here?”
“Are you bored? Let’s take a walk in the garden with us. Titi will also want to play with Sogaju.”
And when Fedi appeared, the two maids in the hallway hurriedly ran to him.
This is not a very good space for children. All the adults are tense and tense, and sometimes you can even hear pain-filled groans from beyond the door. It can be a trauma for pedi who do not know the concept of childbirth.
“Pedi. Come to Dad.”
“Lord, master?”
But before I knew it, my arms had reached out to Pedi.
If you think rationally, it is right for the maids to lead Pedi to another place. But didn’t Pedi come to her on her own feet and of her own will?
Pedi, who is still young, came because she was worried about her fourth mother. When she thought like that, she couldn’t possibly send it back.
“Carl. Are you okay?”
As Peddy rushed over to her and held her in his arms, Mar opened her mouth with a face full of worry.
“It’s okay. “My younger brother is being born, and my eldest son may come.”
“Still… “
“I will play nice with you.”
I smiled and patted Pedi’s back in my arms.
Mar, like me, is probably worried that Pedi will be traumatized. And while she’s worried about Rin, she’s also worried about Pedi, so she must be out of her mind.
So, I plan to hold my pedi tightly. To make today, which will remain in Peddie’s memory of her, not the day when adults became stiff and not the day when her fourth mother screamed, but the day when her cute little brother was born.
“Our pedi. Shall we see my little brother with my dad later?”
“Doong-saeng?”
“Yes, little brother. The fourth mother will give our Peddie a little brother.”
Peddie repeatedly nodded her head at my words.
The triplets now wander up and down her hallway, playing with Friedrich, who is still lying down, and Fedida getting used to the idea of him as her little brother. Thanks to this, she has reached a point where she welcomes her younger brother, rather than shying away from him.
“Now. The fourth mother is creating a younger sibling in the room over there. Shall we give the fourth mother a fight to cheer her up?”
“Ugh! My second mom! Hi-ting!”
I could feel the tension in her hallway calming down as I heard her clear voice.
At the same time, I felt my face melting away. If you lighten the mood like this, you can only give Pedi good memories─
“Your Excellency!”
The door that had been tightly shut was opened.
At the same time, the bodies of the people in the hallway froze.
‘…Why is it coming out already?’
Without realizing it, the hand holding the pedi was shaking.
It’s 3 hours. Only three hours have passed now. It is not yet night, let alone night.
But a door that should never have been opened until the birth was over?
‘Why?’
Could it be that something went wrong? Did something fatal happen during childbirth?
If that’s the case, what should I do? First, should we ask the Magic Tower and the Cathedral to send the best treatment personnel? No, the people already in that room are the best human resources…
“Congratulations! You are a beautiful daughter!”
To…?
…
“Huh?”
For a moment, my head went blank.
I looked alternately at Lynn, who was lying on the bed, trying to catch her breath, and at the baby crying in the midwife’s arms.
It’s real. The real birth is over. And both of them are healthy.
“Hot.”
I looked at the scene blankly and burst out laughing. Although this situation was unexpected, it is a pleasant variable. These variables are always welcome.
‘I never thought it would be over in 3 hours.’
Of course, when her mother gave birth to Theresa, she was told it took about two hours. But she is a mother. Before she gave birth to Teresa, she gave birth to me and Erich. It cannot be placed on the same level as Rin giving birth to her first child.
“Your Excellency. Would you like to hug me?”
“Oh, yes.”
While she was wondering if Lin was stronger than I thought, the midwife handed the baby to me.
A pretty, pretty daughter. My sixth child and fourth daughter.
“Alina.”
I mumbled the name I had already decided upon after consulting with Rin.
Let’s leave the name Leon aside for a moment. The next time Rin gives birth to a son, she will take it out again.
“Ehhhhh!”
And at my mumbling, Alina cried even louder. As if she realized that she had been called.
‘Alina…’
My eyes heated up at that sight.
This is the fourth time. This is already the fourth time this has happened. This is the fourth time that a newly born life, a child carrying my blood, cries in my arms. If you divide the triplets one by one, it would be the sixth.
But I never get tired of it. It’s always new, fun and happy. Just as women are always nervous when they enter the delivery room, they are always happy when a child is born.
“Alina, let’s go see mom now.”
Puaeng Wu smiled at Alina and approached Lin.
How empty she must feel now that her daughter, whom she had held in her arms for 10 months, is now out of her own arms. Even though she was conceived outside of her, it is natural for her to return to her mother’s arms.
“Lin. You’ve had a hard time.”
“Ah, brother.”
When I handed her Alina with those words, Lin welcomed me with a faint yet bright smile.
“You’re a pretty daughter.”
“She’s pretty. She’s someone’s daughter.”
Lin’s smile she became even deeper.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“Uh… It’s better than I thought. I’m tired, but not so much that I can’t move.”
Rin, who was trying to get up, was put back on the bed.
No matter how well she is, she is a mother who has just given birth. It is best for her to rest as much as possible.
“I’m really fine.”
“I’m resting because I’m not okay. I was so surprised when the door suddenly opened.”
Then Lin smiled and touched Alina’s pretty cheek.
Now that I think about it, I haven’t touched Alina’s her cheeks. Intoxicated by the excitement of her daughter being born, she forgot the most natural procedure.
“Alina, I guess we tried hard to get out quickly. Thanks to you, mom is so comfortable.”
“Pedi also cheered for Lin and Alina.”
“Do you want a pedi?”
As she gently nodded, Lin’s eyes turned to her her door her, and just then, Peddie, who was coming in with Mar her in his arms her her her, extended his hand toward Lin.
“My first mother! Hearting!”
Rin’s eyes widened at the second cheer, which seemed a little late.
“Pedi.”
“Wow!”
“Is Pedi’s brother here?”
This time, Lin made Peddie’s eyes round.
“Little brother! Doong-saeng!”
Pedi was waving her arms towards Rin, and the women and employees began to laugh one by one, as if she had completely relaxed at the sight of her.
It is truly a heartwarming sight. You must have endured 10 months for this moment.
“Lina!”
Meanwhile, I heard the voice of my fourth father-in-law from afar. Looking at her footsteps her her her, it seems like her mother-in-law she came too.
You said you would be late because you had to take care of something right away, but I didn’t expect you to come until after the birth. Of course, no one would have guessed that Lynn would give birth in just three hours.
“It’s all over, but you came.”
I laughed at Rin’s somewhat pouty expression
It looks like Rin will wield absolute power in front of you two for the time being.
***
Our daughter Alina.
A precious child who succeeds her brother’s last name, Crasius.
‘Alina Crasius.’
She smiled softly as she looked at Alina, who was sleeping soundly.
I was happy when this child was in my arms her her, but now that I can see her in person and hold her in my arms like this, she feels like she’s flying. Now she seemed to know the feelings of her two older sisters and Rize, who had children before her.
‘It’s so pretty.’
She is so adorable even though she is a child who can’t even open her eyes properly yet. I think she would do anything for this kid.
“My first mother.”
“Huh?”
While Alina was sleeping for a while, her door opened and Peddie came into her room.
“My first mother! My first mother!”
“Oh my! Oh my!”
“Dong Sae-Aeng~”
The triplets came in after them.
Her heart pounded as it felt like a stampede of chicks. Since the kids started walking, it feels like the whole mansion has become brighter.
“Are you here to see Alina?”
“Ungh! Ungh!”
As Peddie answered representatively, the triplets also looked up at me with bright eyes.
To be exact, I saw Alina in my arms.
“Okay. Feel free to look at it.”
It doesn’t matter though. It’s nice that children get along well.
