Hey... Finally an update... XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Chapter 67: At the cemitery... Two days later: Eric’s funeral was beautiful… friends and colleagues of work and neighborhood were there… everyone was sad and shocked at what had happened… When they were exiting the cemetery, Maggie, who was beside Eddy, saw a woman who appeared to be Eric’s girlfriend, on the other side of the street and she was holding a baby in her arms… ‘Wait…’ Maggie said. ‘I need to speak with Helen…’ They stopped and saw her approach the woman… ‘Helen?’ she said. Abby looked at Luka and approached the two women… ‘Mom?’ she asked. Maggie turned to her… ‘Abby, this is Helen… you bro… Eric’s girlfriend…’ she said. Abby looked at the woman, who had her eyes red from crying… ‘Hi…’ Abby said. Helen nodded at her and turned to her son, who was sleeping at her arms… the baby didn’t have more than two months… ‘This is Julian…’ Helen said. ‘Eric’s son…’ Both Abby and Maggie looked puzzled at her. Then, Abby looked at her mother. ‘Did you know that?’ Abby asked. ‘No…’ said Maggie. ‘I knew that Eric was with Helen… but I didn’t know she was pregnant…’ ‘Wow…’ said Abby, turning back to Helen. ‘And you knew Eric was…’ ‘I knew…’ Helen said, sniffing, then drying a tear. ‘After he was born, we tested him… he is healthy…’ Helen looked at them again… ‘I… can’t… take care… of him…’ started the woman. Abby and Maggie were surprised. ‘My parents died in a car crash when I was fifteen and I’m an only child and now without Eric…’ ‘Helen…’ said Abby, with a hand up. ‘Eric would like you to be with our baby…’ Helen said. ‘He told me that you raised him when you were young and he owed you everything…’ ‘Helen, I can’t…’ said Abby, putting a hand over her belly. ‘I’m pregnant also…’ Helen noticed her belly… ‘Please, Abby… take him…’ asked Helen again. Abby was denying again, but Helen approached her… ‘Please, take him or I’ll drop him…’ Helen said. Abby looked at her… seeing that she was serious, Abby carefully picked the baby in her arms… after, Helen gave a bag for Maggie. Both Eddy and Luka appeared beside them… ‘Our authorization, giving his guard to you is on his bag…’ said Helen to Abby. With this, Helen passed a hand on the baby’s head and kissing him, walked away… ‘Wha- t happen – ed?’ asked Luka. ‘It appears that we are… parents…’ Abby said.

Chapter 68: To keep or not to keep?
‘Wha - t happen – ed?’ asked Luka.
‘It appears that we are… parents…’ Abby said.
Without believing, Luka looked at her, than at the baby on her arms…
‘Wha – t?’ he asked.
‘The woman you just saw with us is Helen Eric’s girlfriend…’explained Maggie. ‘And this is Julian, their son…’
‘Maggie, you knew this and didn’t tell anything? ‘ asked Eddy.
‘I knew only about Helen… Eric didn’t tell me anything about Helen or Julian…’said Maggie.
‘She left the baby with me and runaway…’ Abby said. ‘Now what, Luka?
‘Cal – m dow – n…’ he said.
‘Which way did she go?’ asked Eddy.
‘That way…’ pointed Maggie.
‘I’ll try to find her…’ Eddy said. ‘Luka, come with me…’
Luka nodded.
They ran into the direction Maggie had pointed and she took Abby and the baby to the administration…
X ~ X ~ X
‘I think it’s better if we call the police, mom…’Abby said.
Julian woke up when she put him in one of the cushions of the sofa, that they let them borrow and was now crying…
‘She couldn’t have gone far…’ she said, trying to calm him down., while her mother went through the babies bag, that Helen left for Julian…
Abby looked at her mother.
‘What are you doing?’
‘Looking for that document…’ said Maggie.
‘Mom, she abandoned him… there’s no docu…’ she stopped when her mother found an envelope.
Maggie opened it found a paper…
‘Abby, they did let their guard to you…’ Maggie said after reading it.
‘What?’ asked Abby. Maggie gave her the paper and pick up a crying Julian from her daughter’s arms. Abby saw the paper and saw also, a judge had signed it…
‘But, I can’t stay with him…’ tried Abby, looking at her mother as her mother looked to something on the bag. ’I’ll have to more babies to take care of…’
‘But Abby, he is your nephew…’ said her mother. ‘And now that his mother abandoned him…’
Abby saw he give a bottle she founded inside the bag to him…
‘Mom, how will I’ll be able to take care of three babies?’ Abby asked.
Maggie sighed. At that moment Luka and Eddy returned.
‘Did you find her?’Maggie asked.
‘No…’ said Luka.
‘The gardner said he saw a woman exit alone, crying and pick a bus on the other side of the street…’ said Eddy.
‘Let’s go to the police than…’ said Abby. ‘By abandoning…’
‘But, Abby, the document is right’ Maggie said. ‘They gave you his guard… if you go to the police or a hospital, it’s you who is going to answer for that…’
Abby sighed and leaning on her left side, rubbed her forehead with her left hand. Luka leaned and hugged her, kissing her head… as no one said anything, Maggie started:
‘Abby, do you want him?’ she asked. ‘If not, I’ll raise him…’
Abby looked surprised at her…
‘You?’ she asked. ‘After what we had been through?’
Maggie was quiet after that.
‘A – Abby, hone – y, sta – y cal – m, please…’asked Luka.
Abby looked ar him…
‘How, Luka?’ she asked, sighing.
‘Loo – k, I kno – w it’s too mu – ch, bu – t we ca - n do thi – s…’ Luka said. ‘Me, yo- you mo – ther, you father, my fa – ther, Ne – ela, Su – san… ever – yone will hel – p…’
‘But…’ she started. ‘It’s not that simple… we are talking about the life of a child here… we just can’t snap our fingers and…’
Abby snapped her fingers to show her point of view as Luka sighed…
‘Honey, no one will force you anything…’ Eddy said. ‘Maggie and I will take care of it…’
‘As you took care of me and Eric?’ asked Abby, but soon she regretted this. ‘I’m sorry…’
‘Cal – m dow – n, Abby, plea – se…’ asked Luka, again.
Abby closed her eyes as everyone remained quiet and Julian started crying again…
She sighed and opened her eyes. Looking at the baby, she asked Luka.
‘Do you think we can do this?’
‘Y – yes…’ he said. ‘And it’ll b – be li – ke a train – ing for the – se two…’
Luka put his hand on her belly, to empathize…
‘We ca – n do this, ba – be…’ he said, ‘I pro – mise…’
‘You promise?’ she asked, looking at him.
Luka nodded…
‘Ok…’ she said. ‘We’ll keep him…’

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Chapter 69: New addiction 1....
As Abby and Maggie stayed at home with Julian, Eddy and Luka went to a baby store to buy some emergency stuff: an infant car seat, formula and a bottle, diapers…
Now, the girls were at the kitchen waiting for them… Maggie was walking back and forth, trying to make Julian to stop crying…
Abby was sitting on a chair, seeing her mom hold the baby on his tummy while passing her hand on his back…
‘Do you think he is going to take the bottle?’ asked Abby.
‘I don’t know…’ said Maggie.
Julian continued to cry…
‘Ah, this is so desperate…’ said Abby.
Maggie was going to say something when they heard the front door.
‘Thank you…’ muttered Maggie.
Eddy and Luka walked to the kitchen.
‘We brought a formula and the bottle…’ said Eddy, showing a plastic bag.
‘Great…’ said Abby, rising of the chair to pick the bag from her father.
‘How lon – g is he cry – ing?’ asked Luka.
‘Ten minutes…’ said Maggie.
Luka approached her…
‘Le – t me try…’ he said.
Maggie gave him the crying baby…
Luka started to hum a song… seconds later, Julian started to stop crying…
When he stopped Eddy, Abby and Maggie were looking at Luka, who looked back at them.
‘Wha – t?’ he asked.
‘Nothing…’ said Abby smiling as she resumed the preparation of the formula. ‘It’s beautiful to see you like this…’
Luka smiled…
X ~ X ~ X
Later, after giving Julian a bath, Abby was feeding him, sitting on the bed, when Luka entered into the room.
‘The ba – gs are rea – dy…’ he said, sitting on the bed, in front of Abby.
She looked at him.
‘And the car seat?’
In the livin – g ro – om…’ said Luka.
She nodded…
Julian turned away his head, indicating he didn’t want the bottle anymore. Abby put the bottle in the nightstand table and put Julian to burp in her shoulder…
As she did this, she noticed Luka’s gaze in her.
‘What?
‘No – thing…’ he said smiling. Jus – t watchin – g…’
But she knew there was more…
‘There’s something wrong, Luka…’ Abby said as she heard Julian burp.
Luka sighed.
‘I’d li – ke to be be – tter…’ he said.
‘Luka, you’re still recovering…’ said Abby.
Luka nodded.
‘Here, put him to sleep…’ she said, giving him the baby.
Luka looked at the baby on his arms… he was almost asleep…
Abby smiled and got up, putting a hand on her back and other on her belly as she felt one of the babies quick.
‘Whe – re are yo – you goin – g?’ asked Luka.
‘To the bathroom…’ Abby said, kissing him and walking to the other room.

Hey, just a small update...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Chapter 70:
Two days later, it was almost time for Luka and Abby to leave…Abby was waiting Luka outside, with Julian in her arms and with father and mother…
‘He appears to be getting used to you…’ said Maggie.
It’s easier with little kids…’ said Abby, looking at the baby
She was holding Julian in her arms almost sitting, looking at his grandparents…
‘I don’t know how you do it…’ said Eddy. ‘With the weight of the babies and another in your arms…’
‘The twins don’t weight much, just a few grams and Julian must have more or less three kilos…’ said Abby. ‘Not much… but in a few months I won’t be able to pick him as much as I do today…’
Julian started crying suddenly and Abby put his pacifier in his mouth…
‘I think he wants to sleep a little…’ said Maggie, playing with him… ‘Are you asleep? Hum?’
Luka exited the house finally…
‘What took you so long?’ asked Abby when he stood beside her…
‘M – y father…’ he said. ‘It se – ems tha – t he will bu – y a hou – se in the US…’
‘That’s good…’ said Abby as Maggie and Eddy nodded, happy…
‘Bu –t I don’t Kno – w if he wi – ll li – ve here, though…’ he said.
‘He will get convinced, Luka…’ said Maggie.
‘Ok…’ said Luka. ‘Well, le - t get goin – g…’
The four of them said goodbye to each other… Luka helped Abby to put Julian on the car seat and they entered in the car…
‘Call us when you get there…’ said Maggie.
‘Ok…’ said Abby.
Luka put the car on the move as Maggie and Eddy signed goodbye for them…
