Chapter 7 Baby Avery

• On Thursday morning around 5 am, Elizabeth shook her husband and said, "August, wake up." Her husband woke up immediately, he was so scared when he saw that the bed was wet and asked, "Love, are you in labour?" Elizabeth nodded her head and said, "August, take me to the hospital quickly the baby is coming." August jumped out of the bed, he put the bathrobe on top of the pajamas then he ran to the closet and took his wife's dress. He quickly changed his wife's clothes, and then he carried her in his arms and headed down to the living room. He shouted Butler Bruce's name. Fortunately, Butler Bruce was already awake; he rushed to his boss' side. "Take us to the hospital, my wife is in labour." When Aunt Rose heard Mr Martins' voice she dressed up quickly and went to the living room. Mr Martins told her that his wife was in labour. He asked her to tell Bridgette to accompany them to the hospital.
• Bridgette was in a deep slumber when she heard Aunt Rose calling her name. She went to the door and opened it. She rubbed her eyes and asked, "What is wrong, Aunt Rose?" Aunt Rose told her that Mrs Martins was in labour and Mr Martins asked her to go with them to the hospital. Bridgette's sleepy eyes became awake, and then she rushed to the bathroom to wash her face and brushed her teeth. She quickly changed from her pajamas to a dress and rushed downstairs. Mr Martins was carrying his wife in his arms waiting for Butler Bruce to drive the car to the front. Aunt Rose had already informed the Gynecologist, Dr Julia Fowler that Mrs Martins was in labour. She was waiting for them at the Taylor Private hospital. It was a state-of-the-art medical facility. It had the country's top medical specialists and the latest medical technology.
• Aunt Rose handed Mrs Martins' bag to Bridgette, and then they walked to the car. Bridgette quickly opened the door for them, and then she rushed to the passenger seat. She buckled her seatbelt, and then Butler Bruce drove the car to the hospital. Mrs Martins was crying softly in her husband's arms. She was praying in her heart to give birth to a stillborn baby. Unfortunately, the Lord didn't listen to her prayers. Mr Martins was helping her with breathing exercises. The water had already broken. Her husband was rubbing her lower back. When they arrived at the hospital, Dr Fowler was waiting for them with the stretcher. Mrs Martins was quickly wheeled to the emergency room. Mr Martins told Bridgette to follow them to the emergency room. Dr Fowler was aware that Mrs Martins didn't love her daughter; she wasn't surprised to see a young lady entered the emergency room with Mr Martins. Mrs Martins was sweating, and she was in a lot of pain. Bridgette was wiping her face with a towel whilst Mr Martins was holding her hand, comforting her. Dr Fowler told her that the baby was ready to come out. She asked her to push hard. Mrs Martins pushed hard; she was surprised when she heard the baby crying. It was an easy labour. Dr Fowler took the baby and handed her to her mother, but Mr Martins took the baby and held his daughter in his chest. He asked Bridgette to come to his side, and then he gave the baby to her. Bridgette had tears in her eyes. She had never seen anything so beautiful.
