Lucian’s POV
The entire day all of us had spent taking care of Eira and the baby. We made sure both were comfortable and rested well.
Eira was utterly exhausted but couldn’t stop herself from waking up frequently and looking for Kaya.
Maybe what happened after Raven was born still haunted her, and she couldn’t stop herself from being alert in a fear that someone will take Kaya away from her.
Kael had to convince her a few times by saying how important it was for her to rest and promised to not leave her side even for a moment. He had made the couch his sleeping place.
While the rest of us still had to go away to handle other things. We couldn’t forget we had Raven with us as well who had different needs of attention.
As a family, we were taking care of everything perfectly.
The next day was the same for us all as we didn’t want to have nurses around and decided to do everything ourselves from this day onward.
The doctor visited the mother and daughter and left after assuring us that everything was fine with them.
But at noon, all of a sudden Kaya started crying, and wouldn’t stop no matter what.
Eira was utterly worried now, so did we. No one knew what to do.
"Maybe she is hungry again?" Kael suggested.
"She is full and doesn’t want to drink," Eira sounded worried and looked at Jason, trying to coax Kaya in his arms, while pacing around the room.
"Maybe we should call for the kids doctor," Roman suggested.
"Is her stomach hurting?" I asked Jason, "Alice used to cry once in a while because of that."
Jason shook his head, "I had given her drops for that already, checked everything. She is just restless for some reason."
"Give her to me," I offered.
I got her and tried to coax her how I used to do for Alice, but no result. Her cries only grew louder.
Kael and Roman tried to calm her but nothing happened.
"Just call the doctor. You people are just wasting time in case she needs some help," Rafe said, clearly annoyed at us as if we didn’t care for her. "Little life can’t even say a thing and you idiots are just making her cry more."
"We have a doctor with us and he understands the things," I said, "You should trust Jason."
"Then why is she still crying?" he asked, pissed now.
I went to him, holding crying Kaya, "Trying to teach us what to do? Did you even try to hold her and put any effort into calming her? All of us did but you, and you talk about wanting to be a dad, huh? Hold her and try it."
He stepped back, "She might end up crying more."
"Oh, so you only want to hold her, shower her with love only when she is quiet. But you don’t want to take responsibility when she is crying? Not gonna happen. Hold her."
I made him hold Kaya. "You should know what it truly meant to take care of a child, which is more than just standing on the side and admiring it. And finding faults in others."
He held her, a little scared but careful. And just in a few moments her cries slowed down, and they stopped.
Finally the room was quiet and we silently watched him holding her.
"Damn! What did you do?" Roman asked.
"Nothing," Rafe himself looked surprised. "She just stopped crying."
"She must be tired after crying for a long time, and finally stopped," Eira said, "Let me feed her."
Rafe carried her to Eira. But the moment he let her go, she started crying again.
Rafe held her again and she stopped crying.
