CHAPTER 6 : A MOTHER'S LOVE

" doctor is my baby gonna be okay, I really don't understand why his eyes are like that or why he has White hair, his father definitely has black hair " she said but the last part came out as a whisper

" he seems fine, and he isn't blind " the doctor said as she smiled at the baby.

" your baby is healthy "

after Alaric stopped crying, he opened his eyes , his multi coloured left eye / right silver one seemed to bother Clara a lot, but the doctors assured her that her baby was healthy.

" so Clara what his name " one of the doctor asked curiously.

Clara reached for her son and touched his hear loving " well his father and I agreed on Evan but since his father is no longer here , I think I will name him in the memory of his father, his name is Astra " she said while some of the doctors got emotional, the others just smiled.

They all knew the tragic story of Clara's husband ' Asta ' he was a fine young man whom was born into a common family, he fought for the commoners , the discrimination and the insults , he was only 27 when he found out his wife Clara was pregnant, and at the same time the rich nobles wanted to get rid of him.

He was betrayed by his own friend because of money, it was a shame he couldn't see his first baby, he was killed by his own friends when Clara was 6 months pregnant, she was beyond broken but Asta's only sister and her little brother were able to bring her back to her jovial self.

she swore to be strong for her and her baby but things got even worse when she found out her baby could die out of lack of nutrition and proper rest, but now after seeing her baby she would go against anyone just to protect her son ( not like she needed to anyway )

( sorry for the babbling )

Clara sang a blissful lullaby for her son to sleep, for some reason he was edgy .

meanwhile Alaric was having trouble keeping his eyes open, he had a serious face on that made him look like he was trying to poop, he even tried biting his tongue but to his disappointment he didn't have any teeth , he was staring intensely at Clara , he found her odd for some reason, ' could it be that I never experienced the love of a mother that's why all this seem strange to me ' he thought . He felt that Clara couldn't harm him so he just let the oppressive sleep take over " this was the love of a mother ".

**********

after a while Clara finally saw he was at sleep and sighed , she was a bit scared that astra didn't like her or maybe he had a problem after all astra survival was still a miracle.

" I won't let anyone hurt you, you won't end up like your father i promise " Clara said as she lay down next to her beautiful son, she was really happy " Asta I which you were here to see your adorable son.
