Chapter 48: Chapter 48
Three months later…
Celeste slowly walked around in the living room with her huge baby bump. She was wearing only leggings and a crop top. Her whole body was aching as she tried to walk around slowly by holding Liam. Liam massaged her back to give her some comfort.
"Drink some juice, baby! Liam said while holding a can of juice in front of her mouth. Celeste took a little sip and then averted her mouth from it. That time they were all preparing to go to the hospital for Celeste's labor. She was already in pain. Clarissa and Andrew were with them at their home helping them to arrange a few things.
"Everything is done. The driver is waiting outside. Let's go." Andrew said while pulling a luggage and a basket with him. Liam nodded and held Celeste closely while leading her the way.
"Is it painful? Are you alright? Liam asked as they walked towards the car.
" No, Liam. I'm alright. Stop worrying too much." Celeste replied while trying to assure him.
"I can't help." Liam said while helping her to get inside the car. He also got in the car beside her followed by Andrew and Clarissa. After they all got into the car the driver started the car taking it towards the hospital.

Celeste was soon put into the labor room with Liam beside her. The doctor and a few nurses were observing her. The whole time Liam was standing beside Celeste while holding her hand. Andrew and Clarissa along with Rihanna and Rafael waited outside. They were all tired as it was already 9 pm and they have been here for almost four hours.
Throughout the six hours of labor Liam stayed beside Celeste and encouraged her to stay strong and push the baby out of her. At around 11 am Celeste finally gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Liam let out tears of joy seeing their daughter. He then held Celeste's hands tightly and kissed her forehead.
The nurse took the baby to clean her up and get her examined.
The Rodriguez family, waiting outside heard the baby cry and squealed in happiness while thanking God.

Liam came out of the labor room to meet his family.
"Congratulations brother!" Rafael said while giving his brother a hug.
"Thanks!" Liam replied with a smile. One by one everyone hugged Liam and congratulated him.
"How is Celeste?" Clarissa asked after breaking the hug.
"She's alright. Currently sleeping." Liam said while rubbing his face with his both hands.
"I have something to tell you guys!" Liam said making everyone's attention focus on him.
After almost two hours later one of the nurses brought the baby out and handed her to Liam first. Liam couldn’t express his joy when he first took the tiny human in his arms. She was so beautiful just like her mother. Liam felt his eyes getting wet just looking at the beautiful tiny creature in his arms. She was his. He slowly leaned forward and kissed the sleeping beauty's forehead with a smile.
"Can I hold her?" Clarissa asked with an excited voice. Liam nodded with a smile.
"Of course mom. She's your granddaughter." Liam said while handing the baby to Clarissa.
"OMG! She looks just like her mother. But whose eyes did she get? Your or Celeste's?" Clarissa asked while kissing the baby's forehead. They couldn’t tell what colour of eyes the baby had since she didn't open her eyes in front of them till now.
"Gosh! Liam, see she has got your eyes!" Clarissa exclaimed happily, making Liam look at the baby in excitement. The baby was stretching her body while letting out baby sounds. She had opened her eyes for a moment when they all noticed her eyes. She got the same eyes as Liam and this made him more happy.
"She's so beautiful! Andrew said while holding the baby. He then passed the baby to Rafael who was eager to take her.
" She's so cute. Ronin would be really happy to see his baby sister." Rafael said while caressing the baby's little fingers which held his pinky finger in a tight grip.
"He's been very excited from the gender reveal day." Clarissa said with a chuckle making everyone laugh.
"Take her to Celeste now." Clarissa said as Rafael handed the baby back to Liam. Liam took his daugher in arms again and nodded at his mother's words with a smile.

Celeste was half lying on the bed when Liam first entered the room with the baby in his arms. Celeste looked at him with a soft smile. She felt like all her pain and tiredness was worth it when she saw Liam walked in with their daughters.
"How are you feeling? Are you still in pain?" Liam asked in a worried voice. Celeste smiled at him softly.
"No. I'm fine. How is the little one?" Celeste asked Liam.
"She's absolutely fine. Just misses her mama. Don't you want to hold her?" Liam asked with a smile. Celeste smiled and raised her hands to take her daughter in her arms. Liam carefully put the baby in her arms. The moment Celeste took her daughter in her arms she felt her heart burst with pure joy and happiness. Her eyes got wet just looking at her. She placed a few kisses on the babys cheeks, forehead and nose.
"My baby! You are so beautiful! I love you so much! I can't believe you are mine!" Celeste exclaimed in joy while holding the baby in her chest. Meanwhile Liam just stood there and watched the mother daughter pair with a smile on his face. Celeste stared at the baby with a loving gaze when she noticed the baby's clothes. It was a white baby clothes while something was written on it in pink. She held the baby a bit far and read the words written on the shirt.
MAMA WILL YOU MARRY DADA? Celeste's eyes went wide when realization struck her.
"Liam, what is-" Her words got stuck in her throat when she found Liam bending on one of his knees while holding a ring in front of her.
"Marry me, Celeste, again!" Liam proposed to her with a smile. Celeste just looked at him with eyes filled with shock.
"I want to spend the rest of my life with you. If there's something called forever then I want to experience it only with you. I want to take care of both of you for the rest of my life. Please marry me!" Liam said Finished his sentences with a smile on his handsome face. His deep grey eyes looked at her in anticipation, waiting for her answer anxiously.
"Please say yes, Celeste!" Rafael, Andrew Clarissa and Rihanna cheered from the door. Celeste didn’t even notice when they had entered the room. She turned her head towards Liam as her eyes got wet.
"Yes! I Will marry you again and again Liam Rodriguez." Celeste finally said those words while crying in happiness before holding her left hand out for him. Liam slowly put the ring on her finger after he heard her answer. He then got up and bent down to kiss her passionately.
The whole family cheered for them while shouting congratulations. After breaking their kiss Liam hugged Celeste and their baby tightly. Finally everything went to the way they both wished for a long time. Finally God had taken pity on her and returned her happiness.
After three months from that day Celeste and Liam got married again. It was a simple wedding with only their family and friend's present. It was finally a happy ending for them and they had realized it wasn't just a year but a forever...
