Offer To The CEO

Wednesday, continued …

Forty minutes after leaving the ceremony, Alecia and James arrived at the hospital. On heading in they lowed at each other and realised almost eleven months earlier they had made promises to Amanda and Yao Tan about not having a child before they had been married for two years.

James realised what was happening before Alecia had any idea that she was pregnant.  When he finally confessed a few weeks ago they had the last couple of weeks discussing what they would do.  James kept telling her that while he would love to have their child with them, in the end he would support the decision that she made that she felt comfortable to decide.

Alecia had been tossing up whether at just eighteen when she gave birth that she wanted to become a mother. Thinking about her earliest memories, she remembered how difficult it always was for her father being a teenage parent. He had to struggle, and he missed out on so many opportunities that his friends and contemporaries had.

Realising the thought that had crossed his wife's mind, James turned before they headed into the hospital and said "Alecia, you know my position. Yes, I would love for you to decide to keep this child, but the decision is yours and yours alone. I will support that, and I am happy to be the one that cares for our child to allow you to study and work. But I can accept if you decide to terminate the pregnancy. We have all the time we want to have children."

Alecia leaned over and gave him a brief kiss. "Thank you, my love. You do know how torn I am. Little Jang is Anna's blessing, but I just do not know."

James simply nodded, and took Alecia's hand in his, squeezing it to reassure her that everything would be alright. Despite Yao Tan's insistence that they needed bodyguards, they had both gotten through to him that they did not want them unless there was a threat, and he finally had accepted that.

Unlike when Anna gave birth, Amanda was in the VIP area rather than the maternity ward. When they were shown into the room, two things drew their attention. The first was the scene of Amanda and Yao Tan, dozing together on the bed cuddled in each other's arms and the two cots with the twins in them.

Being careful not to disturb Amanda and Yao Tan, then moved over to the cots, and Alecia looked down at her new siblings, her little brother and sister. Her sister opened her eyes and looked directly at Alecia. James realised that she was about to start making a noise so quickly picked her up handing her carefully to Alecia, while he picked up their brother, and motioned to Alecia to head to the couch.

As they sat down, Alecia turned to James and said "My love, I know my decision. I am keeping our baby."

"Are you certain?"

"I would not say that it I was not. These two make me understand what it needs to be."

Still cuddling her little sister, Alecia slightly moved and rested her head on James, but this disturbed both babies who started making noise, waking both Amanda and Yao Tan. Yao Tan, when he was his daughter and son-in-law holding his new children immediately had a vision of a period in the future when the two of them had their own child. Damn, being a grandfather was something he hoped would not occur for a few years yet.

Amanda said, "When did you arrive?"

James responded "A few minutes ago. We just decided we needed a little cuddle with these two, and you looked like you needed the nap you were having." Seeing the movements of his little brother-in-law, James knew that he was wanting feeding. He stood up and walked over to Amanda quietly handing her the baby before saying "This little one is hungry."

Amanda looked puzzled. The nurses said someone would come and help her to breastfeed the babies, but that was not planned for a while. Quietly asking, feeling embarrassed to do so "James what do I do?"

James knew that this was going to be weird.  "Amanda simply put him to your breast. Most babies instinctively will latch on. I will get one of the nurses to help you, as I really do not feel comfortable."

With that James headed to the suite door and spotted a nurse, quietly explaining what was needed.

On walking back in, he could see that Yao Tan had taken their little girl, and was standing with Amanda, but a few seconds later three nurses came in, took the baby from Yao Tan and chased the three of them out of the room.

Once they were in a quiet space, Alecia figured that it was the best thing not to delay, and said "Dad, we have some news for you."
