There was this sudden anxiousness in me as I could not wait to get the baby out, the pain was unbearable, my head was pounding non-stop and everyone in the labour room were trying to get the baby out of me but I was too weak to push any longer.
Doctor Ray wasn't even making the matter any easier as he kept asking that I keep pushing that he could see the head.... He actually saw the head forty minutes ago and yet the body didn't pop out of me, he was obviously lying to keep me pushing.
I had started crying since I could no longer take it, I forcefully took hold of one of the nurses and pierced deep into her hand as I pushed again. With the way I was there was no telling what I could do next to transfer the pain I was feeling on another person.
Well now I know what my mother went through to bring me to this world and many other mother out there who still look out for their children today...... Any mother that abandons their child after this must have a valid reason for doing so, cause man is this thing f*cking painful.
The world is so use to creating new things, why don't they create a machine that will ease child birth forever and women won't go through this after a successful nine month process..... then a particular gender still call us weak, women to the world baby!
I might be saying all of this inside of me but I was totally unconscious outside. I had been like for a while now and I know the doctor should be doing all he can to revive me back because we were at a critical stage.
When I finally wake up there was this look of relief on everyone's faces, doctor Ray begged me again to try pushing for the very last time. I closed my eyes and pushed harder than I ever did over the hours we've been here.
The loud cry of a baby was heard throughout and a teardrop fell from my eyes as I looked at the baby after the unbilical cord was cut off, the baby was covered with blood before she was taken for cleaning by one of the nurses.
"It's a girl, I will go give the good news to your family" The nurse carrying the baby handed her over to me to carry before she went out to share the news, I can't even imaginge how they would react, Beatriz would be so overjoyed and would want to wait to have the baby in her hands.
The nurse injected a sleeping pill into me and I slept off unaware of my current surrounding.
When I had finally woken up I saw as the entire Prince family argued on who was next to carry the baby. Damon took over from Beatriz and he held baby so beautifully you would never had thought he was against her coming to this world from the start.
Damon wore something on her neck, I couldn't exactly tell what it was from where I was staying and the crib was a bit far from me as well. He went further to kiss her forehead countless times before giving the baby to Xander to hold.
I closed my eyes when I saw that he was now coming closer to me. "Priscilla.... I know you are awake" Damon's voice made me so happy hearing mention my name, it's being so long.
After that day he left without saying anything to me we never actually got to speak to each other so I could clarify everything and tell him that nothing was going on between me and his half brother Xander.
His hand brushed against my cheek but he took it away when Beatriz called him to discuss what name shall be given to the baby. "Damon dear, have you thought of a name you would like to give to her.... I was thinking maybe you should give her my name..."
"Liliana, her name shall be called Liliana" he said and my eyes sprang open as he mentioned my second, I felt as my heart beat so much at the fact that he wanted to name his child after me, I knew he had always liked the name ever since I told him the story that came with it but not once would I have thought he would use the name on his own child.
"Why Liliana son? Beatriz seem like a fine name for my grand daughter" Beatriz protested against it to Damon who couldn't take his eyes off of me.
Still staring at me, he replied, "because she is beautiful" he said directly at me and my smile grew wider. Beatriz agreed with him that Liliana was actually beautiful and she left to fight for her turn to hold the baby.
Damon leaned closer to me and said in hushed tone, "there are things I would like to say to you and I would have you know that it has nothing to do with you and Xander, infact I would have you know that if it means I have to fight my brother for you then I would because Priscilla, I love you" he confessed.
I managed to hold onto his hand before he left and squeezed so much that I really hope he understood what my response was. If a man like Damon had me worried so much in the past month then it could only mean one thing.
Alicia glanced at the both of us and I had to let go of Damon's hand, I knew she saw us but she acted like she didn't, she turned away turning a blind eye to what she had seen. She laid focus on trying to get hold of the baby who was now in Janet's hands.
The doctor gave me a day rest before he discharged me along with the baby. The entire had actually came to take the both of us home with a lot of their flashy cars which caused a stare at the hospital.... I am sure they already tagged them attention seekers cause this was actually too much.
I drove in Damon's car but we didn't speak to each other because he made sure I got more rest, like the one I had at the hospital wasn't enough.
On reaching the mansion Beatriz got out of the car still holding on to little Liliana like an egg before she gave it to me to carry since I was the only one who hasn't carried her except from that one time at the labour room.
I carried her in my arms as we all walked into the mansion together. Liliana looked so peaceful unlike me, I would've been crying my eyes out by now. The happy mood in the entire house changed especially for me when we were met with a guest.
"Damon...." She said as she got up from the sofa she had been sitting on, patiently waiting for our arrival.
"Elizabeth?" Damon was shocked and so were we but then again the look Damon use to look at her showed me something that I hate to admit. He still loves her?
