he said. ‎ ‎I didn’t know how to respond to that. ‎ ‎"I bought some books." he said. ‎ ‎"What books?" I asked. ‎ ‎Alexander handed me the books.When I saw the titles, my eyes widened in surprise. ‎ ‎"How to Support Your Wife Through Pregnancy to Birth," ‎"Congratulations, You're Going to Be a Dad," ‎"99 Things Every New Father Needs to Know"... Etc, so many tittles to count, up to two thousand, all imported from abroad.

*The Expectant Father: The Ultimate Guide for Dads to Be. She laughed. It was a bright and joyful sound that startled him at that moment. “Grant Harrison. Oh my gosh. You bought this book? You run Harrison Enterprises! You build bridges! And you’re reading this? A HOW-TO MANUAL!” “I like to be prepared,”he grumbled. He reached out to take the book gently from her hands and put it back on its shelf. “I just want to do this right, Maddison,” he said quietly to her. “I don’t want to miss anything,”

"Okay, but if you get five onesies, I get to choose five books." "Deal." Five minutes later, Valeria was still shrieking at footie pajamas as Kc had made her way over to the parenting books, holding up "Daddy-ing For Dummies" with one raised skeptical brow. Why does this resemble a product of a man who's never cradled a baby?" he grumbled. "Because it likely is," said a voice from behind him. He turned to witness a fellow soon-to-be father rolling a cart full of suspiciously identical items.

’’ When I gave a frantic shake of my head, he smiled even wider as if he intended to tease me even more. ‘‘Or perhaps we should pick one about your father…’’ he raised an eyebrow, shoving his hands into his jeans pockets. ‘‘I’m sure it’s somewhere inside the shelf, too…’’ ‘‘Alex, don’t you dare!’’ But he already looked through the books once more, and I heaved a heavy sigh when I saw a book entitled William Maxwell: Zero to One. Wow! From the title itself, I could tell that dad started from zero when he built his business.

"I mean the baby in your belly. It's not good for him. You know it can break your placenta. You are six months pregnant and you should prevent premature delivery as much as you can." He said as he tried to snatch the bag from my hand. I wondered if he had much knowledge about everything, I just came to know about these terms when I was pregnant. I noticed a book that was kept near his bag. "Guide for new fathers." My brows arched when I realised he was reading that book. He is pretentious, I can't believe him. Now all acting like he wanted this baby when he abandoned us before. "You don't have to worry about it, I have enough to take care of it," I said and closed the door.

She keeps me sane and grounded. “Still, you know it is so massive and the closer we get the more nervous I become.” “It’s natural, Cody. All parents feel the same way, trust me you are not alone here. We could join a group of new-to-be-parents if you think it’ll help, and we have our mom and dad’s to ask about literally anything. A great place to start. But trust me, Cody, you will be an absolute natural. You are proper daddy material; I mean just look how you are with Kitten. I know it’s not quite the same, but the way your heart is with him, he loves you and your kid will be no different.”

She didn't return for at least five minutes so I got on with my unpacking. "Took me a while to find this but it's worth it. Here is a book that I have read a countless amount of times. Everything you need to know from conception to leaving home is in there," she said, handing me an old looking book titled 'motherhood for beginners'. "It's 23 years old but most things are still up to date." "Thank you, Rosa," I said, looking at the contents page. Fertility, pregnancy, labour, delivery, breastfeeding, diet... the list goes on.

I instinctively shifted to the side to hide the damp patch on my blouse before looking up at him. "What do you mean?" I asked. My eyes flicked past him toward the trampolines. The sight of Julian and Lydia playing there gave me the courage to speak up. The man chuckled. "I'm Finneas Zurick, Zachary's dad. We met at the kindergarten parent meeting," he began. "I've been thinking about you ever since then. I've been wondering when we'd finally get a chance to talk." His words grew more improper by the second. A faint blush spread across my cheeks as I studied him.

“You’re learning to coexist with it.” Damian nodded slowly. That felt achievable. --- He also did something quietly absurd. He started reading parenting books. It began as a joke, one he didn’t tell anyone. He ordered one online late at night, then another, then another. Soon his bedside table was stacked with titles about attachment, emotional intelligence, gentle discipline. Emma caught him reading one in the living room and squinted suspiciously. “Is that homework?” she asked. Damian glanced down at the book, then back up at her. “Something like that.”

He was so relieved that she just tricked him and that it was nothing serious. “Pregnancy for Dads 101?” Nancy read out the name of the book like a question, with a snicker, that suggested she found it amusing. “Happy now?” Lloyd asked. “It’s awkward I know….. don’t rub it in.” It was the reason he didn’t want her to see it in the first place. When Nancy brought Lex to him, Lloyd must have read more than 30 books on parenting and even more on single parenting, especially those on being a single father, he even read some books on being a mother too.
