An Imperfect loveWords: 7895

No, this time we won't let him win. But for the past three years, we were unsuccessful in getting pregnant. The doctor advised us to get into surgery. But I and Chris were not interested in it. Especially for me, I want to feel all the pain and happiness my baby gives me, I wanna experience pregnancy things, I don't wanna my baby to give it to some third person. I know it's a selfish decision, but I couldn't imagine anyone in my place. I told my feelings to Chris, he too felt the same. So, we decided not to go through surrogacy.Therefore, we decided to adopt. At first, we were skeptical about this, but Jamie and Mac encouraged us. We spoke to the adoption agency where they adopted their baby boy, Justin. We had a lot of paper works and interviews. Of course, it was stressful. But it was worth it. After months of searching, we finally found a baby girl. Her Latin mother gave birth to her yesterday and she was so happy that her baby is going to be with Chris.Today, we are going to pick her up. I and Chris were both in cloud nine."Omg! Chris! In a few hours, we are going to get a baby" I squealed in joy."Yes! Yes! Yes! I know" he got excited, "I can't wait to see that cute face"."Finally, the effort we've put through, it worked"."Yes" he let out a breath, "I'm going to be a Dad, it's happening"."And I am Mommy. We defeated him this time"."Yeah...yeah...we did" his eyes moistened, "James, can you fast? I can't wait to hold her in my arms"."Yes, boss" he pressed the accelerator.We reached the hospital. After signing some papers, we finally met the girl. She was wrapped in a pink towel. The nurse handed her to me. She was sleeping with her little eyes closed."Aww! Chris! Are you seeing this?""Yes, she is so pretty" he touched her little fingers.She grabbed his little finger with her entire hand, "Omg! Ana!" He got excited, "Did you see that? She is holding my fingers".She yawned opening her little mouth."Give her to me! Give her to me!" he pleaded.I handed her to him, "Baby Girl!" He kissed her cheeks, "You and I are going to be a team. I love you...I love you so much".I know that! He is going to be her favorite."Ana, I've been playing with the names to choose the best one for this little princess. But, when she held my hands my all other choices went out of the window. She is going to be Hope because she gave the hope to us and bought color into our world. I wanna name her Hope. Are you okay with this or do you have any idea?"I smiled, "No, I'm okay with Hope"."Okay, then. She is going to be Hope Ana Rovan".I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and kissed his biceps, "I love it. Welcome to our world, Hope Ana Rovan".A year later,    After Hope came into our world, every day was happy. We felt content and finally, we felt complete. She loved us very much and we loved her too much. She had Chris under her spell. He did everything for her, even he became the best buddy to her. To be frank, it made me a bit jealous. But what can I do? As I've said they both became a team.Apart from us, others lives also went well. Jamie and Mac's son, Justin turned two a week before. At his birthday party, they asked me and Chris to be his Godparents and we felt overwhelmed with that and we asked them the same for Hope.Therefore, We are Justin's Godparents and they are Hope's Godparents.Aaron is in a relationship with a lawyer, Julie and Henna is in love with Jake. Alex and Nyra got married six months before. It was a bit surprise when they came out as a couple. Because they've always loved to mock each other. Maybe that's what made them to fell in love.Aaron and Henna are still maintaining their friendship and respected each other's decisions. I hope they won't make any drama after this.Jason is blessed with another baby girl. They named her Ariel.Kevin finally retired from acting and he is on the cruise with his brother for a world trip.Peter Collins, is still serving his life sentence and I don't know anything about Grace.We shifted to our new house after Hope came in. We bought a house in Malibu, now we are staying there facing the beach.I felt everything is going on the right path. I think there won't be any hurdles anymore. Today in our office, after lunch I and my friends sat inside the conference room. Just talking to each other."Guys, Do you remember where we all started?" Jake asked filled with nostalgia."Yeah" Aaron joined him, "When you and I accidentally met in a coffee shop, discussion how our jobless life sucks"."Then at the exact moment, Jamie called me and informed me about us the New Era...Hmm...still fresh in my mind" Jake stretched out his arms."Mm-hmm. Do you remember our first celebrity interview?" Jamie asked."Of course! It's with Chris. How the hell I can forget?" I replied."Now, look at us. We have peoples to work for us" Nyra smiled."Yeah, I feel like we achieved something" Henna replied."I thank me for accepting this offer" Alex smiled, "To us" he raised his water glass."To us" we repeated back.We all laughed, my phone buzzed. It's from Chris.I read it to myself, 'Honey,! Don't forget your appointment with Doctor Tara, I love you. P.S- Today is the last day of your treatment".For the past one year, I meet that Doctor monthly once for the treatment of my cramps and it went well. Now, I don't have to feel so much pain as before. I stood up typing, "Of course...I won't..."Before I can finish, I felt dizzy and my head spun. I tried to sit down, but I couldn't my legs interspinned and I was about to fall. I heard my friends shouting my name and that's all I remembered. After that, I lost in Dark.When I opened my eyes again, Jamie was holding Hope in his hand and Chris was sitting near me, he rubbed my forehead gently and kissed it, "How are you feeling?"I tried to sit, he helped me by keeping the pillow behind me, "Fine. But, what happened?""Nothing, you've fainted. The doctor said it's nothing, she'll be here in any minute" he replied gently."Oh! You are the one to say?" Jamie rolled his eyes, "He shook the entire hospital building with his voice. We had to take him out until Doctor said that you are fine"."Yeah, Dadda talked..." Hope spoke, "And it was loud, I hated it. But, Mumma you okay?""I'm fine darling, come here" I stretched out my arms.Jamie gave her to me, I kissed her head, "I love you"."Love you, Mumma" she kissed me cheeks "And I hate loud Dadda"."I'm so sorry, Honey. Mumma was sick, so I got worried" he apologized to her."Here, Mumma I bought you flowers" she gave me a sunflower."Aww! Thank you so much, Darling" I hugged her.The doctor came inside with the reports and requested Jamie and Hope to leave. After they left, she asked me, "Ana, how are you feeling?""Fine, Doctor"."Umm...Listen, I have a news" she replied.Chris interlocked my hands with his. We both looked at each other."What is it?" I asked.She smiled, "Congratulations! You are pregnant. But, this time you have nothing to worry about. Your uterus is good and it can hold the baby. Thanks, to your treatment. Don't worry this time you are going to be a Mother".My heart thumped in excitement. This was completely unexpected. Chris Jumped out of Joy and hugged me, he cried, "Ana! Did you hear that? We are pregnant" he kissed me all over."Doc, are you sure about this?" I stammered in happiness."I am. But you have to be careful. You are just one and half months. So, you should take a rest until you are three months. Chris, she is your responsibility. She shouldn't lift anything heavy and she should have complete rest"."You heard that, Ana?" He crossed his arms, "You are not going to lift a finger, got it?""Thank you very much for this Doctor," I said sarcastically.She laughed, "Don't worry, just for three months. Then you can do anything. The reason I'm implying this is" she paused for a second.We looked at her eagerly. She continued, "Because, you guys are going to have Twins".
