Gabriel.

Thank you Doctor Micheal " Tatiana said.

"Welcome. Let the nurse know if you need me " he said.

Patricia turned to her friend, "Why do I feel he favours you more than his other patients "

Tatiana laughed, "He just. being nice and doing his job ".

"Since I got here, I have noticed him check on you three times a day. I mean is that normal for this hospital "

Alex pushed her away, "Don't start with your nonsense "

Eric turned still holding the baby, "He's so small " he smiled.

The three women looked at him and Alex laughed, "You will make a good father "

Patricia slapped her back, "Hi, don't put ideas in his head, he pressure me into having one "

Tatiana laughed.

Eric smirked, "I would want one but not right now . And it's her body I would never force her to do it if she doesn't want to " he kissed the smooth forehead of the newborn.

Patricia smiled walking to him, "Stop being sweet or I might ask you for one right now "

They all laughed.

"Have you named him yet ?" Eric asked.

"Yes "

"But I said I was naming him ".

Eric laughed, "You saved him"

"I love you Patrica but I can't let my son be bullied cause of a name you choose "

"She named our dog, hamburger " Eric let out.

"What? "Tatiana laughed

"Patricia that is a horrible name " Alex commented.

"Why? It suits him and I love it "

"See, this is what I live with every day" Eric laughed.

Patricia frowned, "Okay what did you choose for him ?"

Tatiana smiled, "Gabriel, my late father's name "

Patricia sighed with a smile, "It's a wonderful name, am sorry I thought I knew better "

Eric chuckled and turned to the sleeping newborn, "It's perfect Tatiana "

....

Alex and Patricia had left to go prepare for her return back home.

The baby was asleep after being fed, Eric took a picture with a smile.

"His just so small I can't believe it will grow up to be this big," he said.

"I know, I can't believe am a mother now. Am scared that I will not do a good job bringing him up with his father but when I look at him, I get the strength " she smiled.

Eric sat down, "His in therapy now "

She didn't say anything.

"He started drinking after you left and soon was an alcoholic. So his father pushed him into therapy so he could get his life back on track "

"I hope he gets better," she said emotionlessly.

"I know he hurt you but I think he deserves to know his son was born and what he looks like, " Eric said.

Tatiana gazed up at him, "I hate him so much but I know he has the right to see his son. So don't worry about me and do what you need to but just never tell him where I am "

"I respect your decision, so don't worry I won't ever let him know ".

He sat back and sent the photo of Gabriel to his father, captioning it "Your newborn son, Gabriel"
