Cry Baby.

Arthur had slept like a baby after he heard Rose's voice the previous evening.

He woke up getting ready for work. Dorothy served him his breakfast and soon he left for work.

Sean was already in a meeting when Arthur got to work.

"My body is screaming for a vacation " Sean came in with a tired look on his face.

"I won't allow it until this project is done"

Sean dropped on one of the couches.

"But I have been doing all the work, don't I deserve a break?" Sean cried.

"You will when the project is done, " said Arthur.

"Well am going anyway, it's your company after all you take care of it " Sean stormed out of Arthur's office.

Arthur didn't even lift his head to look at the angry Sean leave.

He wanted to finish all the projects so he could have free time with Rose when she returned. He didn't leave his office the whole day and buried himself in his work.

He was almost done with his meeting when Sean walked into the meeting room.

"Arthur a minute," he said.

Arthur walked out.

"What is it?" he asked.

"Ralph called and said Alex gave birth" Sean shouted.

Arthur froze grabbing Sean's arm.

"She is and the baby okay?"

"Yeah they are fine " Sean smiled.

"Let's go to the hospital " Arthur walked away.

"But the meeting?" his assistant said.

"Finish it " Sean shouted at him.

They walked out as Arthur's driver bought the car.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Arthur asked.

"It's a boy "

They soon arrived at the hospital.

"Your a father now " Sean hugged Ralph.

"Yes I am " he smiled.

Arthur congratulated his brother in law. And walked into the room.

Alex was asleep she looked tired. Ralph told them she had gone through a c -section since she was too weak for normal labor.

Arthur held her hand and smiled.

"You have grown up " he whispered.

They stayed at the hospital until Alex woke up. The baby was brought in and placed in his mother's arms.

He's so small am scared to hold him " Ralph cried.

"But your a doctor you deliver them everyday "commented Sean.

" I thought you went to class for this every Thursday?" Arthur looked at Ralph.

"Guys please, I just don't trust my hands anymore " Ralph frowned.

Arthur pushed him closer to his sister, "Just go already " he wanted to hold his nephew but the father had to first.

"Come, closer love, I will show you," Alex said.

Ralph moved to her, Alex showed him how to fold his arms and hold the baby.

He looked so fragile he started crying.

"I never knew you were a cry baby " Sean laughed.

"You can't get it cause you haven't had a baby yet " Arthur pushed him away and moved closer to get a good look at his nephew.

Ralph had informed Rose and the rest.

Irene finally arrived, she stayed with Alex so Arthur and Sean left.

Ralph was talking to Rose on the phone.

"He looks so fragile when I held him, " Ralph said.

"Am happy you finally get to experience such a feeling" Rose laughed.

"When are you coming back, Alex wants you to name the baby," Ralph asked.

"Ahh...name him?" Rose was surprised

"Yes she said since you didn't attend our wedding you will have to pay us back by naming our son "

"Oh okay I accept, I will be there by the weekend, " Rose told her brother.

"She will be delighted to hear that "

"I also have some good news I want to share with you guys " Rose let out.

"Okay, then I expect to see you this weekend "

He returned to the ward where Alex was.

"Irene you came " Ralph saw Irene next to Alex.

"Yes I can't miss this, you made me an aunt again " Irene hugged him.

She stayed with them until Alex fell asleep again.

"So did you talk to Rose?" She asked Ralph.

"Yes, she will be here by the weekend "

Irene smiled, " That's great, she's finally coming back to her senses "

"Did you tell your in-laws about Alex and the baby?" Irene asked.

"They were the first I told but since they are out of the country now, they could not make it," Ralph said.

"That's too bad they have another grandson "

"They will be here by dawn, mother in law said they were using the jet to return " Ralph chuckled.

"Ahh...I always forget how rich they are " Irene smiled.

They stayed by Alex and the baby's side until Irene dozed off in the seat.

When she woke up it was morning, someone had covered her.

Alex was feeding the newborn while she watched the news.

"Morning Alex?" Irene yawned.

"Morning Irene, slept well?"

Irene stretched her body and folded the covers that had kept her warm.

"Yeah, I did" She smiled when her eyes landed on the baby in Alex's arms.

Alex looked down at her son and smiled, " I never knew I would be a mother, it was just yesterday when I was chasing around Ralph " she said.

"Yeah I know", Irene came closer to them, "one decision can change your life drastically"

"After I saw my brother in love and making his own family, I ended up wanting mine . But to tell you the truth it wasn't that easy " Alex chuckled.

"It's never easy but Rose got through all of it and still stayed with Arthur. And I know even this problem will go away," Irene said.

"I can understand her it was a shock to find out such things but she finally decided to come back to us " Alex put away her breast and placed the baby in his crib.

"I wonder what name she will give our baby "

"Am surprised you even considered Rose to do that, she failed at it the first time " Irene laughed

"It wasn't a failure since now my brother shares his name with his son but I want her to have this honor. She missed both our wedding and housewarming " Alex got up from the bed.
