It was exactly 3am in the morning at the operating room of one of the best hospitals in New York, the children of Mr Kel Ross where being born.
Kel paced back and forth on the third floor and kept staring at the operating room were his wife was, and kept praying in his heart that his wife and children would come out safely.
His mother who was seated kept assuring him that they would be alright.
After his wife went into early labour in the middle of the night she knew her son was in a scared state, And all she could do was to assure him that everything would be alright, even though she wasn't certain. She had seen her daughter -in -law earlier that day and was sure she said she wasn't due till next month, But then she received a call in the middle of the night from her son saying he was at the hospital and Irene had been rushed to the ER, she was so worried about her grandchildren that she rushed over right away.
All she wanted was the safety of her grandchildren, she didn't quite care about Irene, But of course she didn't want her dead either. I mean what would be the fate of her only son if he lost his most precious wife. So in her heart she had to pray for both the lives of her grandchildren and their mother.
An hour had passed and there was still no word from the doctors or nurses, Kel couldn't take it any more.
Negative thoughts kept on flooding his mind as he waited.
"What if she doesn't make it?? What if the kids didn't make it ?? What if they all die?? Wait!!
What if they were all already dead and the doctors were to scared to come out and tell him."
At this point Kel had had enough of waiting he had made up his mind to just work in and take a look for himself.
But as the thought just settled in, The door of the emergency room opened and two doctors walked out.
Kel's mother stood up immediately and they braced themselves for whatever news they would hear.
Fortunately the doctors took off their face masks to reveal smiling faces.
Kel didn't care if they were smiling or not he just wanted to hear that both his wife and kids were in good health. But he was so scared that he couldn't bring himself to ask.
His mother who noticed this, suddenly asked "Are they all okay"??
"Yes both the lives of the mother and children are safe, the surgery went well, And Congratulations your a father of four healthy beautiful baby girls".
"FOUR"??
The word four became such a strange and shocking word.
Kel was so confused he thought he heard wrong so he asked again.
"FOUR ?? Doctor are you sure of what your saying cause my wife was pregnant with twins and not quadruplets."
"Well Mr Ross turns out the CT scans were wrong, Mrs Ross was indeed pregnant with quadruplets and not twins."
At this moment kel didn't know how to react, This was just to much for him to handle, he was gonna have FOUR girls NOT two but FOUR, Seriously was this some kind of dream, cause if it was he would really love to wake up. Not that he wasn't happy, he just didn't know how to react to the news.
But his mother on the other hand was overjoyed, At least her daughter in law wasn't as useless as she thought, She had actually given birth to four children in one go. How impressive.
"Can I see my grandchildren"?? kel's mother asked since her son was unwilling to ask."Yes of course, right this way ma'am. The doctor who was secretly overjoyed replied. He was glad that an influential man as kel Ross had brought his wife to the hospital, and not just that, But he had also ensured the save delivery of his children. He was certain that the hospital would get the publicity they deserved and that would take his career to the next level.Kel who was in a daze finally recovered, he also wanted to see his little girls. Of course he still couldn't bring himself to believe that they were four, He had to see for himself.The thought just settled in when he suddenly stopped and asked "Doctor is my wife okay?? Can I see her ?? ""She's absolutely fine, she is resting at moment and it's best if we let her rest for a while."It was really necessary for a woman who just gave birth to rest so kel understood and kept on walking towards were his daughters were kept.The babies were
The pain was so intense she screamed making Kel who was fast asleep to jump up immediately, He turned and when he couldn't find her in bed he searched around the room until he heard cries coming from the bathroom He rushed over to see Irene on the floor, The pain was clearly written all over her face."Honey what's wrong are you okay??" Kel asked as he knelt down in front of her."I think the babies are coming."This sentence made Kel a little frightened, since he wasn't expecting it yet, nevertheless he immediately got a hold of himself.He helped his wife up and carried her downstairs. The butler and some workers in the house who had heard the commotion were already downstairs. A car was immediately prepared and the butler had also prepared a driver.But immediately Kel came downstairs he grabbed the car keys from the driver, helped his wife into the car and drove as fast as he could to the hospital.Irene passed out.And now she was in the hospital. She wondered if her chi
"Little angels.??"Wait! did this mean the children were alright.Irene immediately pulled out of Kel's hug and asked"Are the babies okay??""Yeah all four of them are okay.""Four??"Irene who thought she had heard wrong asked again.Kel smiled "That's right Honey, you gave birth to four children ".Irene couldn't believe what she was hearing."I want to see them."Kel knew his wife wouldn't believe him until she saw them for herself. So he called the doctor and asked if they could bring the babies out of the nursery to see there mother.Moments later, Three nurses walked in, each holding a baby, Along side was kel's mother holding one to.Irene couldn't believe this.She stared at the little babies, They were indeed four.They were so beautiful.She wanted to carry them all.She stretched out her hands and one of the nurses brought one of the children.She was as light as a feather she had a very beautiful but delicate face, her eyes were closed so she looked so peaceful.Irene co
After staying in the hospital for more than a week, Irene was tired and was ready to go home with the kids.She was finally discharged.Meanwhile.The workers in Kel's villa were busy preparing for the arrival of the Mrs and her children.The maid incharge of all the household activities, was busy ordering the workers around and making sure everything was perfect.Maria, Irene mother was overjoyed, she was now a grandmother.She had not yet seen her grandchildren because she was still at London when they were born.But now she was at Kel's villa waiting for their arrival."Maria"Kel's mother Christina. Called out."What are you doing here??""I didn't think you would bother coming."Maria rolled her eyes, she knew this woman all to well.She had a very irritating personality.But Maria wasn't going to let her ruin her mood so she just played along."Why wouldn't I be here?? I mean my daughter just gave birth and I need to protect her and my grandchildren from you!""Hmm." Just thoug
"Madison, give me back my invention." Avery shouted."Invention??" What, don't tell me you mean this silly junk toy thing." Madison replied."Just give it back Madison". Gloria chipped in."No one asked you Gloria,so mind your business."The three 10 year olds kept arguing until their father kel came downstairs. "GIRLS !!" All three of them looked up at their father for a moment and then..Avery: "Dad tell Madison to give me back my invention".Madison: "Dad it's just a silly little toy, and I just wanted to play with it a little".Gloria: " Dad Avery is right, Madison is refusing to give it back."Girls please, for once can you kids not fight, argue or scream at each other. Kel asked his little girls as they stared at him innocently.""Madison started it."Both Avery and Gloria pointed out. Madison glared at them. She just wanted to play with Avery's dumb toy, what was the whole fuss about."Madison is that true??" Kel asked his daughter Madison."I just wanted to play with the
"That enough madison. Don't talk to your father that way."Irene who had been upstairs had heard the commotion the kids were making downstairs and finally came downstairs at this point.Madison: "Mum you know I hate it when dad compares her to Stacey, I'm nothing like her!!""Well if you were just a little calmer and a little nicer maybe then we wouldn't compare you to your sisters. Now apologize to your dad and give Avery back her toy.""Invention", it's not a toy." Avery chipped in."Sorry", please give her back her invention, Irene corrected."You want it ??, well then fetch the pieces."With this sentence Madison threw Avery's little toy and it smashed against the wall and it broke into little pieces.The room fell silent.Every one was shocked but not entirely surprised, Madison had always been a problem child, Avery was always number one in her torture list, so little avery was use to the constant argument, and fights, but today she wasn't going to care if she was her sister o
Then there was a knock on the door."Go away " Madison shouted, she knew who was at the door.This person would always come to console her every time things went like this."Listen, I know your upset, I just wanted to talk to you, Are you okay ?? Gloria asked from the other side of the door."Just leave me alone Gloria, I don't need your pity, I'm not some lost puppy you can help."Gloria who came to console her sister saw that their was no use so she left. Meanwhile, in Avery's room.The little girl was crying her eyes out she was never the over emotional type, but today she had reached her limits.As she cried Irene consoled her telling her she would buy her new parts and help her fix it all up, she knew her daughter spent much time making the toy and was trying to make her feel better.But she also wanted her to know that no matter what Madison was her sister and she should never wish other wise so she said calmly."Avery, I know Madison always act this way but deep down you kn
He looked at her puzzled, was this a time to joke, what was so funny??"Sorry couldn't help but laugh." Irene said Why?? What's funny?? Kel asked "It's just that, Madison is an exact replica of you."That's impossible. How could you even say that. Kel asked "Well it's the truth you were always so strong headed when we were young. So she takes after you. Irene replied."That's not true." Kel said in defence.But Irene was already leaving the room, she needed to go and check on Madison, By now the little diva should have cooled off some steam. Before she left the room she turned to kel and said "Like father, like daughter."She was teasing him because she knew he was upset.Kel smiled at his wife's childishness, she was never gonna change. But that's the way he liked it."But was she right?? Kel thought to himself. Did Madison really take after him."He remembered being very strong headed when he was little, But that was because he lost his father at a very young age and had a lot
