After cradling my daughter for awhile, she falls asleep. She has a cute expression on her face.
I am glad that she seems to be alright.
Maybe it was just my feeling, but just now, I felt like she tried to tell me that she was already full. Hmm, must be my motherly intuition.
Or have I gone into the doting mother type now, for considering my child to be cleverly talented from the beginning?
Oh come on, me, she is barely a few days old.
Today is the first time I can cradle her again in my arms.
A few days ago, I only managed to hold her for awhile, before she got taken into the intensive care unit. For she was not yet stable.
I spent a few days recovering from giving birth to her… and during that time, I never missed a single day to pray for her safety.
I was so excited when the nurse came in earlier. I could not even keep my mind straight--I only had one thing in my mind : my newly-born daughter. I would be glad if I have the chance to apologize to the nurse who came in today… If memory serves me right, I replied her in an unfriendly way, so…
After my distraught and unfriendly reply to the nurse, she handed my baby over to me.
The moment I held her, I saw her innocent face, looking at me.
Ugh. I feel… guilty.
“Sorry,” I murmurred.
Sorry for giving birth to you prematurely. I must have paid more attention and care during my pregnancy.
Sorry for not being there for you during your first few days of life.
I hope you did not feel lonely. For I will be there from now on, guiding you, my beloved daughter.
[ Rihtes h¯ælu onbescêawung (Detailed health examination) ] I casted a magic spell while she is asleep.
After all, I cannot help but to be worried.
Hmm...
Alright, she seems to be all healthy and well. I am so relieved that her premature birth didn’t affect her health in the long run.
“I hope you will like your home, Lyra.”
Aah, I want that person to quickly take a look at her. To know how lovely she is. She takes after that person a lot.
Fufu, I smile at those thoughts.
Novel with Multiple points of view always found a place in my list of a good novels
Glad to know that, I also love novels with multiple POVs
<<Aah, I want that person to quickly take a look at her. To know how lovely she is. She takes after that person a lot.>>
What's with some novels always using this type of phrase? Why wouldn't they say the name of the person? I could understand if they had to keep secret and where talking out loud, but these are her thoughts, right?
Ahaha, I'm influenced by Japanese novels--and way more influenced back then, as this type of phrasing was often used in Japanese novels ^^
@LynneSuzuran *ding* Author plays the pronoun game forcing the readers to read on…
you know... I don't get why the novels I read always do this shit....they always refer to some character that hasn't appeared yet but will in the future as "that person".....like why...
it sounds so stupid... especially when it's used in a dialogue or monologue..like we don't normally just refer to someone as this person or that person....we either use their names or at least use 'he' or 'she' .....or when it's a character of high status or even royalty then use His or Her Majesty, like when a demon underling refering to the demon king or queen or something....
why am I even ranting about this... I'll shut up
I mean.. "she takes after that person a lot" makes it rather obvious who it is? It is odd though, be better to just not include that line and introduce them normally.
Thanks for the chapter. I love how there’s multiple POVs cuz it helped me clarify some assumptions I had.
Bet she got her old selfs Cells.
Yesss she’s a loving mother!!!
So sweet!
