Chapter 42: Chapter 42
...I don't know when and how you become my reason to worship. I don't know when I lost control over my heartbeat. I don't know when you become a habit of mine but I know one thing, the feeling is bliss...
Evelyn POV:-
After the press conference, We all were having dinner and it was full of chattering as usual. We all were talking then Danielle called Lawrence. He excused himself and left. After a few moments, he came back.
"What was it about?" I asked.
"You know, about the conference. She is squeaking like a fangirl." Lawrence replied monotonously. I let out a chuckle and continued to eat.
"I feel so lucky to be your wife," I whispered to him. He smirked and held my hand under the table. "Is that so?" He whispered back. I smiled and nodded.
I love this feeling of ultimate pleasure I receive when he is near me.
A Few Weeks Later:-
Everything is back to normal and we are living our lives. I feel so fortunate to have a husband like Lawrence. He is my everything. And I am feeling extremely elated to tell Lawrence the sweet news.
He came home and I ran and jumped in his arms. He chuckled as he asked,
"Woah, What happened?" I beamed at him as he rubbed my back. I pulled away and grinned at him.
"We are going to become parents!" I shouted in joy.
"Really?" He asked in enthusiasm and I nodded in happiness. He picked me up and spun me around. He kissed me as we walked down to tell everyone the good news.
"I am going to become a father!" Lawrence shouted and everyone came hearing it.
"Really? I am going to become an uncle!" Adrian came and hugged Lawrence. I smiled widely as everyone gave us their blessings one by one.
"We are going to become grandparents!" Uncle Shawn said cheerfully.
"How can I ever thank you for such a beautiful gift, Evelyn," Lawrence said, hugging me tightly.
"I just want you in my life. Nothing else.." I said as he put his forehead against mine.
We all began to cheer and mother and father also became euphoric upon knowing this.
This is what I desire from the bottom of my heart. There's nothing I want in my life. I am feeling ecstatic to have such a blessed life. This is my heaven...
Timeskip:-
Expression of beatitude is visible on my face. Today is our wedding anniversary and my content is beyond anyone's comprehension. I was in my room and Lawrence came and hugged me and kissed my forehead.
"Happy anniversary, Love." He said with a smile.
"Happy anniversary," I replied.
He then sat be
side me and said, "Your gift is far more precious than any gift I am gonna give you but still..." He said and I cling to his arm and chuckle. "I want you. Nothing else."
He tittered and stood up and showed me a dress, actually two dresses. A red frock embellished with gold sequin and the same one but a mini one, for almost a 2 years old girl.
I giggled and he said, "I wonder how both of you will look in it." He said in excitement. I grinned and we went down as everyone was waiting for us.
The benediction I have received with him is bliss. Having a life, I always desire. I smiled and thanked God for all this blessing I was given.
Life has bestowed me the best gift I can ever receive, you...
We were having dinner and Lawrence was feeding me, as usual. He is always caring but now he is extra caring. I let ecstasy fill me up when he smiled while feeding me.
"Just see how cute our couple is." Aunt Kyla commented.
"They even left us behind." Mother said.
"I wish I had a husband like Brother," Danielle stated.
"You will marry a Lizard, Witch." Adrian sneered.
"No thanks. I don't want to be with you." She retorted.
"I also don't want to be with a witch like you." He mocked.
"Spider." Danielle scoffed.
"Cactus." So does Adrian. We all shook our heads looking at them. How childish can they be?
But this is lively as ever. After dinner, I didn't want to get up so I suddenly said,
"Lawrence picked me up," I said childishly, unintentionally.
"No, you're so heavy." He said. I frowned at him.
"No?" I asked. "No," He said firmly. I looked at him with a frown and we both had a staring competition which he lost obviously and sighed, "Fine." I beamed in joy and put my hands in the air.
Lawrence smiled and picked me up like a bridal style. I giggled and pecked his cheeks. "Anything for you." He smirked and we left.
******
A tear was released from my eyes as a radiant smile formed on my face when I wrapped my arms around my newborn baby girl.
Lawrence also kissed my forehead as he also released a tear of happiness.
"You are the most beautiful thing that has to happen to me and I can never explain how blessed you have made me feel, Evelyn." He said and I smiled.
"Hello, Sweetie, I am your papa," Lawrence said childishly.
"And she is your mama." He said. "Wanna hold her?" I asked. He shook his head 'no'. "Why?" I asked.
"She is so tiny. I can't hold such a small baby. The last baby I had seen was Danielle" He said afraid. It's been decades since we have seen a baby so it's a great celebration for everyone.
"Hey, I am your uncle. and she is your Pencil Aunt." Adrian said, smiling widely.
"Don't teach bad things to her. Hey, Little one." Danielle beamed. Since everyone is present here, they are meeting her one by one. And since these two are the most excited about it they rushed in first and so is Jane.
She also cheered in joy and said, "Hey Love, I am your other Aunt." She was so excited about her.
She even started planning to buy cute clothes for her and accessories and other things. Jane being too blithe, she picked her up.
"Oh My God, She is so cute." She giggled and gave her to Adrian after a while. Adrian face lit up in happiness as he beamed,
"Look how tiny she is," Adrian said to Danielle.
"Idiot, Babies are always small." She said, He scoffed and continued to look at her.
He then gave her to me and I looked at Lawrence again, "Still don't want to hold her?"
"I want to but.." He trailed off. "Here, Let me help you.." I said as I helped him to hold our baby. Lawrence's face glistened with happiness as he looked at her with a grin.
After a while, Adrian, Danielle and Jane left and mother, father, uncle and aunt came. They picked the baby one by one and gave their blessing to her.
"Have you decided on a name?" Father asked, handing me her.
"No, What about you Lawrence?" I asked him.
He smiled and said, "You gave me such happiness. You deserve the right to name her." Everyone nodded and I looked at my sweet daughter.
She seemed so relaxed and beautiful, like an epitome of innocence. She completed me. She has raven hair and green eyes just like her father.
I continued to stare at her and said, "Skyler... Skyler Bayford.." I named her.
"That's a beautiful name," Lawrence said. I smiled widely and I grinned in return.
Skyler... my sweet little daughter...
Lawrence POV:-
Evelyn gave me the most beautiful gift I can ever receive, Skyler. She is so exquisite. She made my content go to a whole nother level. A divine feeling of being loved filled me. No matter how much I thanked Evelyn it's not enough.
She gave me everything. I am completely immersed in her love and now Skyler, I feel like my life is completed. I feel so blessed. I am overwhelmed by the elation.
There's nothing I want now. I have everything I want.
I love you... Evelyn.. Skyler...
