Chapter 49 -- Damian Delilah Mallory: the Seven

Damian searched for Molly.
He found her at 10:30 in 
the morning 
In the biggest bathroom 
Bathing Godfrey and Barrington.
Matthias and Shadir were still 
Sleeping. The other 6 kids were
In school. 
"Hey Mallory, been okay?" He
Asked while he caressed her 
Cheek.  "Yes, Damian I've been 
Fine."  "You?" Damian grinned.
"Yeah, I've been good." 
He picked up a towel and lifted 
Godfrey out of the tub and
Dried him. He then did the same 
With his twin brother, Barry.
He lifted both boys took them 
To their room and dressed 
Them. He set the boys at the
Dinning room table. He said to
Molly, "feed them."  She said,
"I fed them before their bath."

In the months to come Molly 
Was 4 months pregnant with 
quadruplets.
And her twin sister Delilah was
4 months and 2 weeks 
pregnant with Triplets. The multiple 
Conceptions was the result of 
Fertility treatments. Now, in 
All there will be seven more
Newborns added to the Damian 
Hakim household.  Altogether 
That's a total of 17 children.
Born between the two sisters.
9 boys born to Mallory and she
And Delilah were 35 years old.
7 boys and one girl for Delilah.
Damian grew more excited as
Weeks passed.  He had weeks
Ago chosen every name of the
Seven sensational siblings.
He brought Molly and Dolly 
Together in the new nursery 
And told them the 
names he decided 
On. "Delilah our sons names are
Elliott,  Elijah, Ashton. How do
You like the names?" Dolly Was
Distracted with her thoughts.
Damian was brawly with his
Attitude.  "Come. Talk to me, 
let me know."
Dolly said, "I like the names
Damian. If I decide to change,
I'll let you know. Okay?"  
"Straight." Damian said.
He turned to Mallory. "Now
Mallory my love our babies 
Names are,  Amari  Addison 
Abbas and Adian Then
Damian said to them 
"Mommies you
Know what their first name is."
Dolly and Molly looked at 
Each other and said, "DAMIAN!"
Damian gave them each a kiss
And a gleaming smile then left
The huge nursery. Molly and 
Dolly stayed to admire the new
Nursery. With the passing 
Months there were Doctor 
Visits and more visits.
Follow-ups with excellent 
Prenatal care including 
Ultrasounds and blood test.
An exhausting amount of
Test of all types for both
Mothers.  They were both
Doing well. But in the sixth 
Month matters took a turn for 
The worse. Molly started 
Bleeding. Everybody panicked.
Both Damian and Mother Hakim 
Accompanied her to Magnum 
Medical Hospital Center.  
Molly began to cry fearing the
Worst. Damian  Comforted her.
And assured her that everything 
Would be fine.
At the Hospital she was 
Was examined, given medication 
And an ultrasound. She was
Admitted for further test. 
Fortunately and to everyone's 
Relief Molly was diagnosed 
With slight bleeding but good 
Health for her and the 4 babies.
She was able to be Discharged
The next day and she was 
Prescribed extra Prenatal 
Vitamins with bed rest. The next
3 months were uneventful and
The older children helped out
With the younger kids. 
Damian's sisters also lent their
Help. Both Molly and Dolly 
started experiencing labor 
pains within the same hour.
