Gluey Love Between Us -
Chapter 1636
After Eden and Victor got off work, they went straight to Abigail's house to see Ayman.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw Anson and Abigail sitting on the sofa sleepily. Anson was holding Ayman in his arms with drowsiness. Sometimes, he woke up with a start. Eden was stunned. Didn't they sleep last night?
Victor was surprised. Was it so tiring to look after a baby?
Anson was taking a nap. If he knew what Victor was thinking, he would refute him with disdain.
"Abby, Anson, you..." Eden wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. She knew that if the child cried and didn't sleep at night, they would all be very sleepy.
Seeing Eden, Abigail acted as if she had seen her lifesaver, "Eden, take care of Ayman for me tonight. I really can't stand it anymore. He cries and doesn't sleep these nights. Anson and I have never slept well."
"Mom came here at noon, and then Anson sent her back. Two hours ago, a maternity matron came here and looked after Ayman for two hours, but Ayman still didn't sleep. We asked a doctor to come over and have a check-up for him. The doctor said that he was healthy. The maternity matron thought that it was tiring to take care of Ayman, so she made en excuse and left."
"I won't hire a maternity matron anymore. You have to help me. Every child likes you, and Ayman likes you, too."
Abigail wished that she could get rid of Ayman as soon as possible. After taking care of Ayman for a few days, she no longer had the joy of being a mother.
Eden walked to Anson and took over Ayman who was in light sleep.
She nodded, "Anyway, Ayman drinks powdered milk. I'll bring him back to my house tonight. You two can have a good rest."
"Oh... Eden, you are so sweet!" Abigail wanted to throw herself into Eden's arms and cry to her heart's content.
Eden looked at her childish expression and couldn't help smiling.
Every mother had a hard process. Ayman was very small, and they had to pay attention to him all the time.
She and Jaida used to take care of three children at the same time. They couldn't sleep at night because the children were too naughty.
Anson did not say anything. He looked at Victor silently and raised his eyebrows slightly. Victor would experience the bad feeling at night.
Although being a father was a happy thing, taking care of a child was really challenging.
Eden cooked dinner. The four of them had dinner together. Then Eden brought Ayman and his daily essentials home after asking Anson and Abigail to go to bed early. Victor did not say a word on the way back.
Looking at Ayman who was babbling in Eden's arms, he felt as if Eden had been stolen.
"Eden, how can we sleep since you bring him back?"
"I'll take the child to sleep in another room. We won't disturb you."
As soon as Eden said this, Victor's face darkened.
He was not used to sleeping alone, okay?
"You won't bother me." Victor said with depression.
Eden glanced at him silently and did not say anything.
When they returned home, Ayman was still babbling and refused to sleep. Eden carried him in her arms with baby sling, put down his daily essentials and walked out. She filled the kettle with hot water so that she could make milk for him at any time.
Victor followed her. Watching her prepare everything in perfect order, he had complicated feelings.
Was it really so troublesome to look after a child?
"Woo-woo..." Ayman suddenly cried.
Seeing this, Victor had a headache, "Can't he just be quiet?"
Eden put down Ayman, "He has been accustomed to being held by adults. As soon as he is put down, he cries. We have to correct his habit slowly."
"Victor, take the basin to get some water. It's almost nine o'clock at night. Let's take a bath for Ayman first."
Victor silently picked up the children's basin that he took back from Abigail's house and went to the bathroom to fetch water.
After fetching the water, he stood aside and watched silently. Eden opened Ayman's diaper. He had pooped, and it seemed that he had a bad digestion. After taking a bath for Ayman, Eden smoothed her hands with baby lotion and massaged him.
He massaged his navel clockwise for fifteen times.
Then she pulled his calves and let him exercise it for a long while.
Eden did not stop until Ayman farted.
Victor watched her soft movements. After Ayman farted, he lay there comfortably, looked around curiously with his big eyes and kept moving his hands.
"Oh, Ayman, do you feel much better?" Eden kissed him on the forehead happily.
Victor was overwhelmed by jealousy, and he looked at Ayman with envious eyes.
"Eden, won't he cry at night just because of what you did?"
"I'm not sure. Although he's delighted now, he might cry later."
"It's nine o'clock at night. We'll feed him milk in half an hour. If he can fall asleep at eleven o'clock, that will be very good."
Seeing that Ayman did not cry, Eden didn't held him after changing his clothes and let him play on his own.
"Victor, you go to bed first. You have something to do tomorrow."
Victor nodded silently. He couldn't help her much except for handing her something.
Ayman was too small, so he didn't dare to hold him.
However, he thought too much. Ayman didn't want to sleep after drinking the milk. He cried as soon as he was put down. Victor couldn't fall asleep at all. Moreover, Eden had been walking around with Ayman in her arms.
He looked at the time. It was three o'clock in the morning, but Eden was still walking in the room with Ayman in her arms.
"Eden..."
"Hush... Don't speak." Eden lowered her voice and looked at Ayman. He was about to fall asleep.
Victor was stunned. He finally understood why Anson looked at him with sympathy.
Eden held Ayman and walked back. Seeing that he was asleep, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She slept at three o'clock in the morning, while Abby usually slept at four o'clock when she took care of Ayman.
It was a little difficult to change Ayman's habit all of a sudden, and she had to hold on for a few days.
She gently placed Ayman on the big bed. Then she went to bed cautiously and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She said in a low voice, "Victor, just sleep!"
Victor suddenly hugged her and said with distress, "It's even so hard to look after one child. I can't imagine how tired you were when you took care of the three children." At that time, she was not rich and brought the children by herself.
Eden smiled and knew that he was sad, "No matter how difficult something is, we can get used to doing it. As long as I'm willing to do one thing, I won't feel tired."
"Besides, the three children gave me hope to survive. I am very grateful to them."
"Alright, don't think about the past anymore. It will be dawn soon. Just sleep." Her arms were very sour, but what she did for Abby was far less than what Abby had done for her.
If it weren't for Abby's help at that time, she and the children would have starved to death on the street.
"Okay! Let's sleep." Victor looked at Ayman whose sleeping face was so lovely. This time, he didn't feel annoyed and smiled at Ayman for the first time.
