Reece
~~
I could hear the sound of my Little Bunny’s voice coming from the other side of the call. It was a little awkward, hearing it like that. I mean, she was right here with me but I was getting her voice through the call.
Well, that wasn’t what I needed to focus on right now. I needed to see their reactions. We were slowly adding the babies to Trinity’s arms so that she would be holding them all. And when she had all three boys, I sat next to her with Zaley. I was the one to introduce her in the video, telling them that she was our little surprise.
“OH MY GODDESS!” Wesley sounded like he was about to fall down in his shock.
“EEEEEEEEE!” Eve didn’t seem like she was able to talk at all.
.....
“WHAT!?” Samuel was just as surprised as Wesley was.
“REECE! WHAT IN THE WORLD...!?” Mom was smiling from ear to ear.
“A SISTER TOO!” Reagan was excited.
“YAY! ANOTHER LITTLE GIRL!” I knew that Rika would be happy. They didn’t want to be too outnumbered by their brothers.
“I knew there was another one.” Now Talia’s words were the only ones that threw me off.
“Talia, sweetheart, what did you mean you knew that there was another one?” my Little Bunny had caught that too, huh.
“Well, I knew there was another baby, but when I was contacting the spirits they said the fourth baby didn’t have a soul. I thought that she wasn’t going to make it. They told me that the other baby was closer to the underworld than she was to our world. I..I didn’t want to tell you Mommy, because I didn’t want you to be sad. But, I..I prayed and cried everyday. I asked if someone would give that baby a soul. And, well, when you came back, I felt like she might be better, so I just kept praying and crying for her on my own. I didn’t want my mommy to be sad just after she got home.” She hung her head like she had done something wrong. “I am sorry Mommy. I should have told you. I should have let you know.” She was on the verge of tears and that nearly broke me.
“No, Talia, it’s OK.” I tried to soothe her as I watched Eve hugging her to give her some love. “Mommy and I were very happy last night. When we found out about Zaley we were overjoyed. She was our little surprise bundle. And you were the only one that could have kept the secret. I am so glad that you did.”
“Daddy is right, Talia. When Griffin told us about the other baby, we were all surprised, but not in a bad way. We were happy and excited, and it turned into such an amazing night. Without you having kept the secret for us, we never would have been able to experience this. Thank you, Talia, for letting us be surprised.” Finally, after hearing her mommy’s words, Talia started to calm down.
“Y..you really are not mad? Y..you mean it?” She was smiling slightly, almost like she was nervous about it.
“Yeah, we mean it, Talia. We are not mad about it at all. The only thing that matters is that they are all here and they are all healthy. Want to see them right now? They’re sleeping.”
“Yeah!”
“Yes!”
“Uh huh!”
“Can we?”
“I want to!”
“Show me the babies!”
“Yes!” All seven people on the call started to talk at once. I guess they really wanted to see the babies.
I rose to my feet and walked over to the bassinets. They were in order from first born to last born. I showed them Zachary and slowly moved the video down to Zander, Zayden, and then Zaley. They were all there, all peaceful and calm.
“They are so cute, Daddy.” Talia called out. “I am so happy.”
“So are we, baby girl. So are we.”
At that moment, my phone started to blow up. I was getting messages and people were all calling me nonstop. It was a little much to deal with while on the video call though. So, I knew that I needed to end the call and just tell them to come and see us.
“I am getting so many more messages right now. Why don’t you all finish getting ready so that you can come up here and see them in person. We will see you soon.” I wrapped up the call and waited for their goodbyes.
“See you soon, Dad.” Reagan, my little man that acted like a grown up, said goodbye first.
“We will be there soon, Daddy.” Rika was next.
“See you.” Talia waved at me.
“We will be there soon, Reece.” Mom smiled at me as she brought the phone back to her face. “And I can’t wait to hold each and every one of them.”
“I know Mom. See you soon.”
I disconnected the call just as I got another call. This one was from Riley. He was the closest thing that I had to a brother. At the same time, Trinity got a call on her phone. It was Juniper.
“I guess we have a lot of calls to make.” She smiled as she answered the phone and put it to her ear. “Hello Juniper.”
“Hello Riley.” I said as I answered my phone.
“Don’t you hello me.” I heard that in stereo. It came from Riley on my call but also Juniper on my Little Bunny’s call. That was pretty funny. The fact that they would say the same thing at the same time.
“What?” I asked Riley, paying attention to my own call.
“What the hell happened? You have four babies. Weren’t you guys only having three?”
“Well, one was hiding underneath the boys. She was hidden and no one could see her.”
“Holy shit! That is crazy!” He sounded so excited on the other end of the call. “This is amazing, man. I am so happy for you.” We talked a little more about this happy surprise before we hung up the call.
Trinity was still on her call with Juniper. I could hear her talking about the nursery and the need to finish it. Damn! I would need to leave here and get that done. And I needed to order a new name sign so that Zaley would have hers here when we all went home. I had a lot of work to do.
The good thing is, they weren’t going to be leaving the hospital right away. They would be here for a couple of days. Maybe I could have someone sit with Trinity while I ran home and did some work. And I would need to ask Juniper if she would alter the mural. She could put Zaley in Trinity’s arms since she was only holding one of the boys in the image.
I was ordering the name sign when I got another call. This one was from Trevor. He definitely was not expecting the news that he had been given.
“Hey, Trevor.” I tried to remain calm but I knew that he was going to be so happy for us.
“REECE!” He bellowed into my ear. “You dog! You got four babies at once! Are you trying to beat me to a certain number of kids or something? You’re only four ahead of me and I know that Glory wants to have more. I can beat you.” He was laughing so I knew that he was joking, but it was still funny.
“Nah, I am not trying to race you. I just wanted to spread the good news.”
“Yeah, I know.” He chuckled a little as the joke settled down. “Congratulations. I can’t believe that this happened, but I am happy about it nonetheless. You and Trinity are the best parents ever.”
“Thanks man. That means a lot to me.”
Trevor and I talked for a little bit longer. He wanted to know about the boys and Zaley. He was interested in how big they were and then was shocked when they were so small. He also told me that he and Gloriana were going to come back for a visit soon.
Once I said my goodbyes with Trevor, my phone rang again. I had to wonder if they had the phone company monitoring my calls so that they could just call in true succession. This next call was from Noah. He probably tried to call Trinity, but she was still on the phone with Juniper. I could tell that Juniper was going to talk for a long time right now. So, it was left up to me to talk to everyone else.
I accepted Noah’s frantic yet excited call. He was happy for us and expressed his shock with what had happened. When I spoke to Bryce next, I was doing so while answering several of the text messages that I had received. Those messages were from Carter, Shawn, Shane, Dietrich and several others. They were all happy and excited for us.
I was texting as fast as I possibly could. I was working hard to make sure that no one’s message was missed or ignored. They all deserved to get their answer from me. And I must admit that it was taking a long time.
Trinity had finished her call with Juniper before I was done with the messages. And that was when I realized that she had almost as many messages as I had. This was going to be a really long morning.
