Chapter one hundred twenty: "Old Love Song"
While I shuffled on the bed a loud thunder made me startled awake
It was night time and we all came home after a few checkups and maybe a few night's rest there, the hospital let us goWe were in our cabin home that Cloud build years ago. When I twisted my head, my husband wasn't in sight
Huh? This is gonna take a toll on him during his classesI slowly sat up and walked to find him around the cabin, I checked the living room and kitchen but he wasn't there so the place he would go to is Sunny's baby room
With quiet footsteps I sneaked up behind the door, As I got closer I could hear Cloud calming Sunny down
"That's just a little rain, nothing to worry about" he assured Sunny who was sobbing in his arms
"Need a little help?" I asked which startled him to raise his head to look at me
Cloud shook his head "It's fine, you should go back to bed since it's my shift now"
I crossed my arms at him "But you have classes tomorrow"
Cloud took his classes online and sometimes he would take his family jet to fly to Alberta if his presence is needed for something important like making a projectWell that's what he said he is gonna do
My arms gently grabbed Sunny from him "It's better that you sleep, can't have you dozing off in class now do we?" I raised a brow at him and he scratched the back of his head
I know he wanted to help so he could at least lessen my work to take care of Sunny but he needs to also focus on his studies"What about you?" He asked in concern since tucking Sunny back to bed is exceptionally hard, one wrong move and she will wake up and cry again
It's setting down a bomb that you hope it wouldn't explodeI pecked him on the lips "I'll be fine"
Truthfully I'm not since I wasn't expecting to have so after-effects of pregnancyHe was hesitating to go back to our bedroom but I kept nodding to him in assurance while swaying Sunny side to side
When I thought he finally left after listening to me, he came back running in and grabbed Sunny in my arms, and held my hand to pull me into our bedroom "How about we all sleep here tonight?"
"But the baby could be crushed if we move during our sleep"
Sunny is precious to us and I heard quite a lot of cases where babies are crushed beside their sleeping parentsIt was a horrifying experience listening to them as I watched the crime documentary
With sleepy eyes and a working presence of mind, Cloud left our room and came back carrying the foldable baby rocker and set it beside our bed
"There, now Sunny won't feel scared now do we princess?" he checked to see Sunny's reaction and her chubby tiny baby arms reached out for him
I gave birth to this baby and she only wanted her DaddyI feel betrayed or maybe I'm too overdramatic?
Cloud grinned with tired eyes and hugged Sunny as he patted get back "That's my girl" then stuck his tongue out at me
I put a hand over my chest and made an offended look on my face, playfully of course
To help her fall asleep quicker, I put on some old love songs on the speaker in low volume. Her eyes are starting to shut with a bit of drool coming out of her mouth and onto Cloud's shoulder
My hand grabbed a cotton handkerchief and wiped the drool off her mouth and his shoulder "Our baby is an old soul" I chuckled
He agreed "Every time we play any old love song, Sunny always falls asleep"
