Soft footsteps padded across the house. The little girl was walking as fast as her tiny feet would take her towards the main door. Her brown hair bouncing behind her. Her black eyes focussed and shining so bright, the sun would have felt ashamed, and her white and pink frock frizzing around her.

A cute little fairy.

"Dad dad dad." She mumbled and stood in front of the double doors of her house. Waiting impatiently for them to open. And as they did, she squealed so loud, that it brought joy to every person who heard. Especially her father whose chest swelled with pride.

She jumped up into his arms and kissed him. He was content holding his baby in his arms. He was home. And he was fulfilled. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Another set of footsteps resonated in the house. He looked around to see his seven month pregnant wife wobbling over to him, his little penguin. His goddess. He extended his other arms towards her and pulled her to himself.

His complete family.

"Eva would not listen to me at all. She ran today, again, as soon as she heard your car. Kayden you need to tell her to stop doing that. I can't always run after her. And she could fall." His wife complained pouting at him. His daughter, Eva laughed at his wife who mockingly glared at her.

"Calm down love. And baby, what did I tell you?" He asked his daughter who was lost playing with his hair.

"That ma is having baby. She needs rest." Eva muttered and then looked at her ma. "Sorry ma. I won't do it again. I love you. And baby."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

Kayden smiled and led the both of them inside the house. He sat down on the couch and pulled Ava carefully onto his lap. She was heavier and felt so much more better than when she was too light. Kayden would often worry about her health.

Ava then pulled Eva closer to herself and cuddled more into her amazing and loving husband. The man who stayed with her throughout. Who supported her immensely and who understood her every decision. 

"I love you." She mumbled into his neck and felt so emotional that she could just sit and wail. She loves her husband a little too much that it could get overwhelming sometimes.

"I love you more Angel." Kayden had never stopped calling her his Angel. Or his goddess for that matter. Especially when her belly was swollen with their child, Kayden always referred to her as a goddess. She looked divine indeed with the swell of her belly and nice chubby cheeks.

That's all that Ava had gained. Her arms and legs didn't gain much weight even during her first pregnancy. Just her stomach. And Kayden tried hard to feed her as much as he could. Pampered her until she was spoilt rotten and papa and mamma had to stop Kayden from going further.

Louis and Charlotte were spoiling the baby. Eva Murphy. A total copy of her mother and father. She looked like both of them. If she had Kayden's nose, then her cheeks were like that of her mother. If her lips were like her mother then her eyes were like her father.

"Dad, Ma cried five times today." The little girl stated with a sad frown on her face. She felt bad, because she couldn't help her mamma when she was crying in the kitchen, then in the bathroom and then in the bedroom.

"Really? Why did you cry Angel?" Kayden asked his wife who was staring at the floor silently with pink cheeks.

"I couldn't get what I wanted to eat. It was placed too high. And then I took a bath and I wanted to shave, but I couldn't reach there, and then I saw my old clothes and I didn't fit in them anymore. And I was missing you. And I was feeling bad for Toby." Toby was their neighbour's dog who had died a year ago.
