25 Polly and Sally

Polly, the first time Lin Yilong heard this name was the name of a pet parrot in the English textbook when he was in junior high school, in fact, it is difficult to associate the names "Maria" and "Polly". Maria is more likely to be nicknamed Molly or Maggie rather than Polly.

As for Cellie, the official spelling should be Sarah, taken from the name of Abraham's wife.

Therefore, when these two names were written on the child's birth certificate, Lin Yilong spent a little time writing the two official names.

"Are you sure it's these two names?" asked the hospital staff, apparently able to tell the difference between a nickname and a name.

Lin Yilong stood in front of Katie's delivery bed for nearly 12 hours, and two lively and healthy baby girls were hugged by Lin Yilong to Katie's side, making her feel the joy of motherhood.

"That's right, those are the two. Lin Yilong suppressed the excitement and fatigue in his heart, "Polly and Selie are the affectionate names of their daughters. ”

"Be the true piety of your parents. The staff exclaimed.

"I agree, but unfortunately I'm not a Christian. Lin Yilong replied, and then on the children's surnames, Katie's "Whitehouse" was filled in.

After filling out the project sheet, Lin Yilong took the project sheet and signed it for Katie.

Katie was very tired, and saw that Lin Yilong had signed in advance, so she struggled to sign her name on the birth certificate.

Even at term, twins give birth with problems of one kind or another, and after Katie feeds Polly and Sally for the first time, she leaves milk in the bottle with the help of a midwife and sends the two children to the observation room while she herself gets a short break.

"Everything will be fine. Lin Yilong put his arm around Katie and kissed her forehead, "Have a good rest." ”

After asking the doctor about the condition of the daughters in detail, Lin Yilong sent the jade photos of the daughters to Katie's mother, and also booked them air tickets for later today and hotel accommodation near the hospital.

As for himself, he bought two packs of clothes and pants on Regent Street, just across the water from Portland Street, and called Gwinev, the foreman on duty, and asked him to go to the ranch and sign a black cow that he had already marked to the slaughterhouse to replenish Katie's puerperal recovery.

After pouring himself two energy drinks and having lunch outside, Lin Yilong returned to Katie's hospital room and guarded her.

Katie slept for 10 hours, and when she opened her eyes, she found that not only Lin Yilong, but also her parents and younger brother were also around, but her daughter was missing.

"They will be sent back immediately. Lin Yilong saw the anxious look in Katie's eyes, and immediately knew what Katie wanted, "The children have opened their eyes and look as beautiful as their mother." ”

After repeatedly confirming that Katie was in good health, Lin Yilong took out a bouquet of white lilies that had been prepared and put it next to Katie, and then applauded.

Katie's parents and younger brother also applauded to the rhythm of Lin Yilong and congratulated her.

Just as Katie accepted everyone's blessings, the midwife pushed Polly and Sally from the nursing room back into Katie's ward, and the two girls watched curiously with their beautiful amber eyes.

Lin Yilong took the cart, walked in front of the Whitehouse one by one, and then put the daughters next to Katie.

"They are identical twins, Miss Whitehouse, the one you are holding is Cellly, and in Mr. Lin's hand is Polly. The midwife looked at the names on the incubator shell and made a distinction for a room full of people, "We can only distinguish between white and pink towels, be careful not to confuse them." ”

"Okay, thank you. Lin Yilong carried Polly to Katie's side.

"Also, if my mother has a normal physical examination on Monday, she can be discharged from the hospital. The midwife seemed to feel that there were too many people in the ward, and added, "Today's visiting time has arrived, the mother and the child need to rest, and everyone, including the child's father, has left here." ”

Several people said goodbye to Katie in a huff.

According to the habits of the locals, Lin Yilong insisted and went to a nearby bar with the Whitehouses to relax a little.

"Congratulations. Mrs. Whitehouse congratulated Lin Yilong, "You've become a father." ”

"It's still a bit of a delusion. Lin Yilong replied that after studying and training at Nadia and Vera, he was not in the mood of being a father, but because of the accumulation of fatigue from staying up late for a long time.

"Alright, I know you're not going to have it easy. Mrs. Whitehouse said, "Do you need us to take care of Katie?"

"No, I don't. Lin Yilong refused, "This is my responsibility." ”

"This kid was hurt too deeply by his previous childhood sweetheart. "As a father, I want you to take good care of her." ”

"Of course. Lin Yilong replied.

The warden, who drank a lot of gin and tonic and beer in the evening, drank it until the bar closed at 10:30 before Mrs. Whitehouse, who had also drunk a lot, returned to the hotel that Lin Yilong had booked. As for Lin Yilong, he had a place to stay in the "partner room" of the hospital and returned directly to the hospital.

After sleeping for eight hours and eating the English breakfast provided by the hospital in the morning, Lin Yilong slowly went to the ward to visit Katie.

"Everything is fine here!" said Katie with some excitement, "and the kids are looked after by someone else." ”

"It's good to like it. Lin Yilong kissed Katie on the side of her cheek, "I heard that I will be able to go home in two days, so I can use this time to rest at home." ”

Lin Yilong checked the newborns Polly and Sally again, the daughters were sleeping soundly, and the skin that was a little wrinkled when they were born had become dry and transparent, but it was still impossible to be as "beautiful as Katie" as Lin Yilong said last night.

The same children of his, Polly and Cellly, gave Lin Yilong a completely different feeling from the surging feeling when he first became a father, and he couldn't accurately summarize in one word what the complicated feelings of the two sisters who were still swaddling - excited but also less fresh.

"Little ones, I'm Daddy. As if sensing Lin Yilong's approach, Seli, who was relatively closer to him, first opened her eyes, and then seemed to be able to distinguish the face in front of her as his father's, and smiled at him.

As if hearing her sister's laughter, Polly opened her eyes and smiled like Katie like Sally.

"It's jealous. Katie complained, "Last night, the children always cried at their mother, but smiled at their father. ”
