Chapter 8: It’s time Barbie helped Julia to walk home. ‘’We’re almost there babe! ‘’ When they got in front of their house, he took her in his arm and brought her on the porch. Sam and Melanie saw the scene from the inside. Sam ran to the door, and helped Barbie to get Julia inside. Melanie grabbed the phone and called Norrie; Julia wanted to have Norrie next to her. ‘’Hey Norrie! ‘’ ‘’Hey Mel, what’s up? ‘’ ‘’No time for… ‘’ in the back Melanie saw and heard Julia screaming because of the pain of giving birth; she was holding Barbie so tight and so close to her. ‘’Bring your ass over here; Angelina is ready do see the world. ‘’ ‘’Are you sure? Can I talk to Julia? ‘’ ‘’I don’t think that it’s the right time. ‘’ ‘’Go ask her for me please. ‘’ Melanie gave the phone to Julia; who gave the phone to Barbie. ‘’I can’t it to painful, you do the talking. ‘’ '’Norrie, what’s wrong? You should really come here; you know Julia needs you here with her; like right now. ‘’ Before he got to the end, he put the phone down and talked to Julia. ‘’You’re going to be just fine, let’s get you upstairs; alright? Sam is already getting ready…. ‘’ ‘’Barbie, my water just broke!!! ‘’ ‘’Did you hear that Norrie? ‘’ He took the phone back and Norrie answered him; ‘’I’m on my way; tell Julia to hold on, I’ll be there very soon. ‘’ ‘’She’s coming baby… she’ll be with you; alright. Now come on, let’s get you up. ‘’ Julia stood but at the same time she had a big contraction. She couldn’t stand on her feet. Barbie shuts to Sam. ‘’Sam, can you come help me with Julia. I won’t be able to get her upstairs alone! ‘’ Sam hurried downstairs; they both took her in their arms. Once upstairs, Barbie asked Melanie to help Julia while he was getting some towels and sheets. Sam asked Barbie to bring fresh towels and a bowl of water for Julia’s face; to refresh her. At the same time, Norrie showed up. ‘’She’s upstairs! ‘’ Barbie screamed at her. She entered the room where was same. Julia asked Norrie to go get a pyjama in the nursery. ‘’Ok baby, I’m back and I think that everybody is all set. ‘’ ‘’You forgot something!!! ‘’ ‘’What? What is it? ‘’ ‘’Your dad, remember he wanted you to call him when it was time. ‘’ ‘’That’s so true… ‘’ ‘’I’ll do it Barbie, let me tell dad, stay with Julia! ‘’ ‘’Thanks Mel, you’re an angel. ‘’ Norrie got back from the nursery with a blue pyjama. It was perfect; she put it right beside Sam and went to Julia’s side. Melanie called Don Barbara, to tell him that is granddaughter was on her way and that Julia is doing great. When she got back to the room, Sam asked her if she wanted to assist her. Without any choice she said yes; but she felt honored to be a part of this wonderful event. It’s not every day that her brother becomes a dad; she was about to become Auntie Melanie. Sam talked to Julia. ‘’Ok Julia, you’re almost fully dilated and you’ll be soon able to push. You’ll have to push when I’ll tell you that you can; alright? You are going to be just fine and I’m sure you’ll be doing great. Let’s do this! ‘’ ‘’Alright, breathe in and out; in and out! Try to relax your body baby. ‘’ Barbie have been asking Sam for advice and things that he could do to help Julia while his wife is giving birth; so he knows what to do. Julia took a deep breath in and out. Barbie kissed her on her cheek and did the breathing exercises with her. ‘’Do it again, in and out; and again. Relax and you’ll be just fine; I can feel that you are stressed and that’s not good for you and the baby; so relax honey. ‘’ Julia did exactly what Barbie told her. He was actually not that bad for his first delivery. ‘’I want you to kissed me; alright. ‘’ In the meantime, she had another contraction. She screamed; Barbie held her head and Julia crushed Norrie’s hand. ‘’Julia... You are hurting me! ‘’ screamed Norrie. ‘’Ok Julia, it’s time now, you are fully dilated and we are all ready. ‘’ ‘’Come on Julia, next contraction; push as hard as you can. She’s already crowing. You can do it. ‘’ Julia pushed as hard as she could be possibly been pushing. Crushing Barbie’s hands; she screamed and it ended. Norrie was holding her head and her back. ‘’That was fantastic Julia; one more the head will be out. You are a natural at this. Come on! ‘’ Once again, she pushed. This time the head was out. She took her breathe back; Sam cleared the nose of the baby and her mouth and Julia had another contraction. She pushed several times and it was done. They heard their little Angelina cry. Barbie took Julia’s shirt off of her and Sam cleaned the baby a little bit and put her on the chest of Julia. Norrie congrats the two new parents and looked at the baby with big open eyes. It was one of the beautiful thing she has seen in her life; so far. Barbie cut the umbilical cord and kissed Julia like he never did before. ‘’You did it baby. That was easy. Now we have a beautiful daughter named Angelina Shumway-Barbara in our lives. Welcome little princess! ‘’ ‘’Congrats Julia! She’s so cute and tiny... ‘’ told Melanie. ‘’…And she seems perfectly healthy! ‘’ said Sam. ‘’You’re my princess, you know that. You are mommy’s princess! ‘’ Julia kissed her and hugged her. She was so fragile and so tiny. ‘’I’m going to see if my dad is downstairs. He should be arrived. I love you both so much. You are the world to me. ‘’ Barbie went downstairs. He saw his dad waiting on the couch. As soon as Don saw Barbie coming down the stairs her stood up. ‘’How is she; Julia? ‘’ ‘’She’s perfect, everything went very well and the baby is healthy and so cute. ‘’ ‘’Congratulation, new daddy! It means that I’m officially a grandfather. ‘’ ‘’Do you want to meet your granddaughter? ‘’ ‘’Right now! ‘’ ‘’Sure, everybody is doing well so yes; now! Come on, I’ll take you to her! ‘’ Barbie took his dad upstairs. When they entered the room, Norrie was trying to dress the baby with the pyjama that she chose before. Barbie took his daughter in his arms and gave her to his dad. A tear felt down Don’s cheek; he never thought that one day he would held his grandchildren in his arms. Julia looked at him with tears in her eyes and so much joy inside of her. Her parents had never got the chance to meet her and she hoped that they would be as proud as Barbie’s dad is. ‘’Norrie, do you want to hold her? ‘’ ‘’Yes, I want to hold her. ‘’ Don gave Angelina to Norrie. Melanie went beside her to look at her. ‘’She is so tiny and so fragile. You did great Julia; both of you did great. She’s perfect. ‘’ ‘’Norrie; do you want to be her godmother? ‘’ ‘’Really, you are asking me this; for real? ‘’ ‘’Yes, I am. Since its Auntie Melanie, Barbie and I want you to be her godmother. ‘’The hell I want to be her godmother. ‘’ Norrie kissed her goddaughter and told her; ‘’I’m going to protect you all my life. You can count on me! ‘’ ‘’And Sam, would you be her godfather? You did so much for us and for her, we can’t think of anyone better than you to be the godfather. ‘’ ‘’I will. Thanks to both of you. I promise to be a part of her life. ‘’ Norrie gave the baby back to Julia. As soon as she was in Julia’s arms, she opened her eyes for the first time. She looked to her, and Angelina’s eyes were blue/gray and suddenly changed to pink before becoming blue/gray again. Julia kissed her and kissed Barbie. ‘’You are going to be so strong and be sure that we will discovered that the dome did to you. You have beautiful eyes little miracle. ‘’ ‘’She has your eyes Jules; those eyes that I saw the first time that me met; under the dome; your enchanted eye. ‘’ Julia decided that she wanted to go in the living room. It would be easier to have more people there. Barbie brought Angelina downstairs and Norrie helped Julia to get up and to get dress. Joe, Carolyn and James Jr arrived at the new parents’ house. Barbie opened the door with Angelina in his arm. Carolyn got so happy when she saw the baby. Barbie told them to go in the living room and that Julia was coming. Melanie was in the kitchen with Sam preparing a bottle of milk for the baby and a glass of juice for Julia. ‘’And here’s the new mom; top shape, ready for another one. Joking! ‘’ Julia and Norrie laugh and got into the living room. She sat beside Barbie. Melanie gave her the bottle and sat on the other couch. Julia fed her baby for the first time and Barbie kissed her. Everyone could see how happy they were. After this, Angelina went in everybody’s arms and hands. She cried a little; normal she’s a couple hours old. Everything is new for her. She has a big world to discover; with Barbie and Julia, she will be over protected and so loved. ………………….. Days went on, and Angelina changed so much. She’s now growing as a normal child. Norrie came often and Sam saw her a couple times. Julia walks a lot outside with her and Barbie is showing picture of her to everybody; he’s so proud. The night are rough, just like other babies, she wakes up often and mommy and daddy have to go see her; rock her around the house; feed her and change her.
