Two Children

"Congratulations my lord, you are a father!" 

Opening the door with a great, big smile, Jupetus's greeting sounded as sweet as honey to Alexander.

Though she really did not need to spell it out, as the piercing cry of the infant shooting out of the door gave Alexander more than confirmation of that.

"Waaah! Waaah! Waah!"

The normally irritating blasting cry now felt like the most calming sound to Alexander.

"Great! That's great!" He cheered, his heart immediately filling with glee as his face broke out into a huge smile.

And as the older woman opened the door further to signal him to go in, he found a slightly flushed, tired looking Cambyses swaddling a child wrapped in a warm towel in her arms, gently rocking them, as she tried to calm the crying baby down.

And as Alexander as he approached the bed, 

"My lord, it's a healthy girl!" One of the midwives beamed, a statement that made his heart slightly skip a beat.
