"Sophie…" he softly called her name, "we have a child now."
She slowly opened her eyes and then turned her head towards him. She felt that speaking was so difficult now; it seemed the past four hours had drained all her energy.
"Is our child doing well…"
"He's fine, doing very well." He held her hand tightly, unwilling to let go.
"A boy or a girl…"
"..."
Well, he was only focused on seeing her that there wasn't any time to check if the child was a boy or a girl. The nurse hadn't told him earlier either.
He turned his gaze to the young nurse standing nearby.
"Mr. Land, Miss Smith, congratulations, it's a boy."
Finally, she and Asher Land have a son.
Sometimes, every night before sleeping, she would touch her belly and discuss baby names with him. She had said before if they had a boy, the child would be named Alexander Land.
"Alexander…" she murmured softly.
...
The arrival of this child was so timely.
