$31 202. Louis and Emily’s Joy
“Look at this, Brandon.” Louis placed a stack of photo paper on the table. Then, he showed them one by one to his friend. “This is a picture of Russell crying. This is a picture of him laughing. And this is a picture of Russell being angry.”

“Can babies get angry? Isn’t he still too young to understand anything?
Brandon shook his head faintly.
Louis shrugged. “I don’t know about that. But when Russell sees something he doesn’t like, his hands keep flapping and his mouth makes sounds....” Louis imitated a baby’s moan which made the librarian glance.

“Russell also has sharp eyes, Brandon. If he feels annoyed by us, will glare while furrowing his eyebrows.” Emily touched the base of her eyebrows, checking to see if they were the same shape as Russell’s eyebrows in the picture:
Brandon smiled at Emily’s expression. “I think he must be really cut when he’s angry.” “Yes!” Emily nodded quickly. “He’s always cute, all the time. Louis, show him a picture of Russell in the shower.”
Louis chose a photo then placed it in front of Brandon. “Russell likes playing in the water. | think when he gets older, he'll be a great
swimmer.” “Besides,” Emily grabbed the collection of photos in Louis’ hands,
choosing one, “Russell also likes kicking. His legs are very strong. That's why Daddy bought him this toy. He always laughs when he manages to kick the ball.”
“Wow, i didn’t know that your little brother could already do so many things. | thought it took a long time for a baby to learn.”
Louis smiled proudly. “I don’t know about other babies, but | think Russell is also a genius like us. Because of that, he learns faster.”
Emily nodded in agreement. “You know, Brandon? Every day he always waits for us to come home. Maybe he’s lonely after not having any friends all day. As soon as he saw us and Daddy come home from work, he became excited. Oh, | can’t wait for him to be able to talk. His voice must be so cute.”
While examining the photos in front of him, Brandon’s lips pursed. His eyes dimmed a bit.
“It seems like having a younger sibling would be really fun,” he muttered unenthusiastically. “It's a shame that my mother can no longer give birth. Her uterus has been removed.”
Louis and Emily frowned. “What is a uterus?” Brandon blinked. “If | remember correctly, that’s where the baby sleeps in mother’s stomach.”
The twins’ mouths rounded. Pity and horror appeared in their eyes Don’t be sad, Brandon. You can come to our house sometime and play with Russell.” Louis patted his friend’s shoulder.
The corners of Brandon’s lips slowly rose again. “Thank you, Louis.” After a brief moment of contemplation, he tilted his head forward, glancing at Emily.
“Emily, since | don’t have a little sister, can | think of you as it?”
Not only Emily, but Louis flinched. “How can that be? We’re the same age.”
“Of course she can.. You and Emily are also the same age, but she’s
your sister.”
Louis’ lips pursed. “That’s because | was born first.”
“| was also born earlier than she was. My birthday is two months earlier than yours. Emily could also be my sister.” While Emily was blinking, Louis wore a listless look. His other hand touched Brandon’s shoulder again.
“I'm sorry, Brandon. | really want to comfort you, but | don’t want to share Emily with anyone. She’s my sister.”
Brandon’s eyelids dropped halfway. | won't take her home, Louis. She will stay with you. | just want to think of Emily as my sister. | will share my food with her, study with her, and look after her when we run together. She will be safer and happier.”
“Sorry, Brandon. | think that’s a bit strange. You’re not my brother. We're friends. I’ve had enough of Louis as my big brother,” Emily said in a sweet voice. Louis nodded in agreement.
“Why don’t you just think of Molly as your sister? She just had a birthday. That means she’s younger than you, and she doesn’t have an older brother. She’ll be happy if you think of her as a sister.”
Brandon spontaneously frowned. “But | don’t like Molly. | just want to
look after Emily.”
“Why? She’s cute. Her cheeks are chubby like Emily’s.” Louis poked Emily’s cheek with his index finger. However, Brandon still shook his head.
“What are you talking about, guys?”
The three toddlers turned around. Seeing Philip, the twins raised their eyebrows. “Uncle? Why did you follow us here?” They were surprised because Philip usually watched them from a certain distance.
“There's i

interesting news you need to know. Ava is about to give birth. in the hospital.”
The twins exchanged glances. Their mouths were wide open, letting
out a laugh.
“Oscar Oasis is about to be born!”
Brandon gasped. “Oscar Oasis? That lizard?”
Louis blinked and shook his head quickly. “I mean Orion. He’s our cousin!”
“Uncle, are we going to the hospital after school?” Emily looked at Philip with sparkling eyes.
“Yes. Therefore, as soon as the last class is over, let’s not chat anymore, okay? Let’s go straight to the hospital.”
The twins nodded firmly. They

“He must look like Uncle. Orion is a boy.” “Russell is a boy, but he looks more like Mommy. Orion might be more like Auntie.”
Louis’ cheeks puffed up at Emily’s statement. It made sense, but he didn’t like getting the answer wrong. “What do you think, Uncle Philip?”
Philip raised an eyebrow. “I think? Maybe it’s similar to both. We'll see.
“Okay! He must be sleeping in his box.”
“Or cry. He’s probably as hungry as Russell was back then.”
However, seeing that Ava’s room was still empty, the three of them widened their eyes. “Where are Auntie and Orion?”
Philip’s brows furrowed. He immediately contacted Vivian. Knowing that Orion still hadn’t come out, he was stunned. Wasting no time, they went to the delivery room.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“Mrs. Bell, what happened? Why hasn’t Orion come out yet?” Louis asked as soon as he burst in. Vivian turned her head with a face full of wrinkles. “Louis, Emily?” Seeing how pale her lips were, Philip held her arm. “Are you alright, Ma’am?”
Vivian took a deep breath. “It seems like something is wrong. It's been almost two hours, but Ava hasn’t succeeded in pushing the baby out. In fact, they have tried various methods. Ava has tried squats, using a birth bar, tilt poses, and several other methods. But nothing works.”
“Is the last resort surgery?” Philip whispered softly.
Vivian shook her head. “I don’t know, Philip. | think the doctor will definitely do his best. Let’s just pray that Ava will be successful so
Suddenly, Ava’s screams were heard. The twins shuddered. They stood on tiptoe, trying to peek. However, the glass divider was slightl higher than their heads.
At the end of her scream, Ava cried while holding her head. “I can’t. | can’t do this anymore.”
Jeremy’s face couldn't be any paler. All his nerves were tense. His breathing became erratic. His eyes flickered trying to summon some
sense.
