Laws Of Love ✅

Chapter 18

''Okay'', I reply. Petra squeezes her hand.

''Petra, push!'', the nurse directs her.

''Arrgh!'', she pushes squeezing my hand tightly.

''Push!''. She obliges.
Oh God, all this pushing is giving me baby fever!

''I see him. Just one more push. PUSH!''

''Argh! Why did Caleb have to get me pregnant?!'', she screams.

I hear the cries of a baby and look down to see a tiny baby. The doctor cuts the umbilical cord. The nurse immediately takes him to clean him up. I take a napkin to wipe Petra's face. She's sweating so bad. I guess childbirth is way painful than I thought. The nurse brings back the baby to Petra. Petra grins from ear to ear when she sees her baby.

''My little bundle of joy'', she whispers.

''I'll go get your husband ma'am'', the nurse says walking out of the room. I look over at the baby in Petra's arms and smile. A tear slides down my cheek. He giggles when she tickles his tummy. Petra looks over at me and hands me her son.

''Hey there'', I say tapping his little nose. He smiles at me. His smile melts my heart. He is so adorable. The door opens and the guys walk in. Caleb runs to Petra and kisses the top of her head.

''Where's our son?'', he asked with his hands cupping her face. I put the baby in his arms and he cries. It's tears of joy. Raymond walks over to me and rubs my shoulder. He glances over the baby and smiles.

''So what's my nephew's name?'', I ask.

''Julian Hose Hernandez'', Caleb states. I nod.

''Welcome to the family champ!'', Raymond exclaims. Just then, his phone rings.

''Hold on'', he signals and we all stay silent.

''Yes this is him speaking''.

''Oh thank you for letting me know. Sure thing. Bye'', he hungs up. I stare at him and he smiles.

''Today is just full of good news'', he says.

''Who was that?'', Caleb asks.

''It was Gavin. He said the cops just arrested Ethan. They're taking him to the station for questioning''. I smile.

           At the station, Gavin walks us to the interrogation room. Ethan is already seated. He has no expression on his face.
''Mr and Mrs. Smith'', the detective welcomes us. I offer him a smile as we take our seats.

''What are they doing here?'', Ethan asks the detective. I shake my head.

I snap, ''Are you seriously asking that question?! You kidnapped and almost killed us. Do you now remember?''. He looks horrifid and I grin.

''Did Mr. Richson order the kidnapping?'', the detective asks him.

''No. We organized it ourselves'', Ethan replied.
''We?!''

''Yes, those in the business''.

''What business do you actually do?'', Raymond presses him. Ethan rolls his eyes.

''Look, we're not here to play games young man. Answer the damn question!'', the detective demands.

''We run our own empire. Jay is actually the boss''. I gasp.

Empire? Boss?!

Jay never really told me what he did for a living but he couldn't possibly be in a mafia.
''But I'm telling any of y'all the type of empire. I'm not a snitch'', he states.

''Alright, that's enough for today'', the detective says. ''Officer?''

The cop comes and takes Ethan to his cell. We thank the detective and leave the station. I'm so glad that's all over now.
