[One Piece] Uncrowned King

For many first-time mothers, the pregnancy process is quite difficult, whether it is an abnormally heavy body that cannot squat up or sit down normally, cramp calves from time to time, and a weird temper.Teresa can endure hardships, and her psychological quality is quite good. In addition, she is already very old. After some things have settled down, she will not have any depression, and she will not suffer from prenatal and postpartum depression.During this period of pregnancy, she would let go of her appetite, eat and eat, and then put her work aside, enjoying a rare and leisurely quiet time with Newgate.It's just that Teresa's good psychological quality has not been transmitted to her husband and a group of sons on board. Compared with the parties involved, these men are much more cautious.

The day of childbirth came in spring amid Teresa's expectation and Newgate's anxiety. Originally, at Teresa's age, both Nancy and other doctors hoped that she could use it. It was a relatively safe caesarean section, but because of Teresa's strong opposition, in the end everyone could only worry about giving up the idea, and decided to let her have a normal delivery first, and if it was really dangerous, then change to a caesarean section.It's just that this kind of worry itself is superfluous. Teresa, as a brilliant doctor, is absolutely impossible to bet on her child's life safety. She dared to give birth because she was fully prepared and knew her body clearly. State, although the process will be quite uncomfortable, but there is nothing more important than letting children have a good body.However, although she had accumulated quite a lot of theoretical knowledge before and was prepared to deal with everything, Teresa finally realized that she really underestimated the pain of childbirth until the day of childbirth.

Growing up loved and loved by Nancy, Teresa didn't suffer too much, and was rarely hurt. This experience is undoubtedly the most painful experience in her life.Below is the constant pain of being stretched, the pain is not only pain, but also a kind of irritating stuffiness, the legs are a little numb in the process of exerting force, the baby is not born, but the physical strength is Constantly passing.Just over an hour after entering, Teresa deeply felt what it means to be exhausted, but this still did not change her decision to have a natural delivery. She swallowed the ginseng piece silently, stubbornly clutching the quilt with both hands For the next pain point.

Unlike those wives who asked their husbands to accompany them when they gave birth, Newgate was driven out by Teresa before giving birth. Teresa absolutely didn't want anyone to see her sweaty ugly appearance, so The impatient father-to-be and grandfather-to-be could only wait patiently outside.Hearing the constant cries of pain coming from outside, Nancy was in a hurry, even though he had already experienced his wife's delivery, it still made him unable to calm down.On the contrary, Newgate was extremely calm. He stood motionless outside the door, his eyebrows were tightly knit together, and he was listening to the movement in the delivery room with his hands clasped.

After a day-long torment, with terrifying perseverance, Teresa gave birth to a girl safely and smoothly as she wished, and finally ended the long journey of childbirth.

However, after giving birth, Teresa herself developed a low-grade fever and fell into a coma. Under such circumstances, even if she gave birth to milk, Nancy would not dare to let her child use breast milk.Therefore, when Teresa finally woke up from the coma, she saw the tall and strong husband holding a small milk bottle with his fingers, feeding their baby very piously and carefully.

Or he was worried that he would hurt the little girl, so Newgate was very careful, and it could even be said that he was trembling.A few times he even let the bottle slip off accidentally, just because he was worried that he would crush the small bottle with too much force.After feeding the baby, he tentatively stretched out his hand, gently brushed the baby's tender skin, and wiped away the little milk spit out.The hand holding the knife covered with rough calluses treated the young child as if holding a treasure. It was just such an ordinary scene of father and daughter getting along, but it moved Teresa so much that her eyes became moist...

How much Newgate loves and cherishes his children shows how much he looks forward to having a family, and it also proves how lonely he has lived.

Teresa carefully sat up from the bed, and felt physically weak. Now she couldn't exert any strength at all, and her face turned pale just as she walked to sit up.

"Teresa." Looking up and seeing her getting up, Newgate raised his eyebrows, picked up the baby and brought it to her side, and laid the little guy on the bed, allowing her to meet her mother for the first time after birth.

Seeing her daughter's chubby little face, Teresa couldn't help becoming soft in her heart. She usually has no scruples about holding other people's children, but now she doesn't know how to do it.Looking up and seeing Newgate who was staring at the child, she blinked and smiled softly, stretched out her hand to grab his palm, and put one of his fingers in her daughter's little palm.Newgate was shocked, his body stiffened, but he didn't take out his hand, he calmed down and felt the warmth from his fingers...

"Hee hee, as expected of my child, it's really cute." Teresa, who had just been promoted to a mother, smiled tiredly. She reached out to stroke her daughter's hair while looking up at Newgate. Said: "Fortunately, I don't have the same figure as you, otherwise I would definitely not have a normal delivery..."

"..." Newgate didn't speak, but the smile on his face became much stronger.

The two chatted briefly, and the little girl on the bed began to sleep soundly while drooling, while Teresa lay beside her daughter, and after being awake for a while, she became tired again, yawned, and she closed her eyes. He patted the place next to him with his upper eyes and said, "Newgate, rest." After finishing speaking, he couldn't help closing his eyes.

"En." Newgate responded, but did not obey and go to rest. He sat on the side and quietly watched the mother and daughter fall asleep.He stood up again to clean and disinfect the feeding bottle, then walked softly back to the bed, sat on the bench and stared at the mother and daughter who were already deeply asleep.He just looked at them like this, without saying anything, let alone doing anything.Until the sky changed from dark blue to light blue, and the sea glowed with orange-red rays, Teresa, who was asleep, subconsciously poured the child into her arms, and smiled slightly in her dream.The man lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Thank you...you..."

At this time, no one will notice that there are water marks on the cloth next to the bed, wet and dry...
