She's My Sleeping Pill

828 THEY WANT TO HOLD THEM BUT COULDN’T

Two hours later.

“Yenyen, congrats on giving birth to triplets.”

“Yen, I hope for your children’s well development.”

Faith and Noah visited the hospital as soon as they learned the truth of her sudden absence and both of them were happy for their friend. Cayenne had been wishing to have a child and now, she didn’t get just one – she has three children.

Since Stefan didn’t want her to get pregnant again even though she wanted to have two or three children, God answered their prayers at once. He gave them three children at once and that would mean Cayenne won’t have to get pregnant again to put Stefan at ease. Nothing more was better than this as an answer to their prayers.

Not long after, more friends and family members came to visit Cayenne in the hospital and to see the children that she birthed earlier. They were all amazed at how the twins looked different from each other.

“Where’s my pretty niece? Where?” Luiz’s fired-up enthusiasm made him restless as he walked down the corridor to the NICU room where the premature babies stay. His eyes twinkled when he saw them and the thought of being their uncle set off another layer of happiness in his heart. “They’re so cute. How long will they stay here?” He asked as soon as the nurse came out of the room.

“Until they’re fully developed, sir.”

“Is my sister going to stay in the hospital while waiting?”

.....

“She may or she may not. It depends on her doctor and their arrangements.”

Cayenne wanted to share her birthing experience with her fans but Stefan told her to rest and think about it after a week. He didn’t want her to think of work or study, or her fans when she needed to rest and recover. In addition, Cheska reminded him that women tend to have post-partum and Cayenne might not be exempted from that. It would be better that she’s not stressed out with other things and just focus on her recovery. Fortunately, she has people around her who experienced giving birth already and they could be good counselors to her.

Jillyanna also arrived along with Travis and their children. Jade was most excited to see little Cayenne and the little Stefans so, instead of visiting Cayenne first, she asked one of the bodyguards to walk her to the neonatal care. There she met Luiz whose face was almost glued to the glass window that separated him from his niece and nephews.

“Your head might break the glass,” Jade commented and when Luiz turned to look at her, she grinned.

“You finally came! Come!” Luiz carried her off to the bench so she could stand on it and see the children inside the room. He couldn’t carry her anymore since Jade has grown and become a little heavier as well. “Aren’t they beautiful little creatures?”

“The way you said ‘creatures’ sounded like they’re something else non-human.”

“Hey! I didn’t mean it that way

Jade giggled and finally turned her attention to the babies. She was awed at how small they were. She shivered at the thought that they could be broken so easily if mishandled.

Luiz observed Jade’s reactions and smiled faintly. He knew that Jade was supposed to have a baby sister but she died along with her mother, leaving Jade all alone until she got into the orphanage and met Jillyanna. Her fondness for children remained even after so many years.

Every time the little baby moved, her eyes would light up and her face brightens. She was even clenching her hands several times, probably wanting to hold those little fingers with hers.

About fifteen minutes later, Jade jumped down from the bench and told Luiz that she was going to Cayenne’s room. Luiz nodded Luiz nodded his head and the bodyguard took Jade back to where Cayenne was. However, when she got there, she ran to his father’s side and hugged her baby brother whom Travis was holding.

“What happened?” Travis questioned in a whisper but the other people inside the room still heard him since they paid attention to Jade the moment she came inside. It was very unusual for the cheerful little girl not to greet Cayenne when she visits her.

“It’s frustrating,” Jade mumbled and everyone perked their ears to hear what the little girl has to complain to her father. “I wanted to hold them but I can’t. It’s frustrating.”

“Ahh. So, you came back running to hold your brother instead?”

She nodded.

They didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this point with Jade being so adorable even when she was frustrated. They never thought she would be that eager to hold the babies. Sadly, Stefan didn’t’ allow anyone to come in contact with the children except for the doctors and nurses. With this protective beast as their father, Jade would have to wait for a little longer to hold the babies physically.

Seeing that many people were looking forward to meeting her babies, Cayenne was happy to have these people in her life. The future may not be guaranteed but right now, this instant, she could tell that many people cared for her children.

“Uncle Stefi,” Jade called out, still holding her brother’s hand with hers. “What are the names of your babies?”

Stefan’s smile widened and he excitedly told Jade the names that he and Cayenne came up with. “The eldest is Ayena Jahzara, the second is Aziel David and the third is Yun Zeki. ”

“They sound lovely. What do they mean? Their names must have meanings, right?”

“Of course! I would never name my children carelessly.”

“I remember someone tried naming them after the layers of the atmosphere.” Cayenne teased which made everyone laugh. Who would do that? Stefan wasn’t even a scientist or a science enthusiast. How did he even come up with names after those boring layers of the atmosphere?

Stefan could only scratch the tip of his nose at this moment. He didn’t expect that his wife would use this chance to get back at him. [It’s fine. It’s always a pretty sight when she smiles.]
