Hi Guys, this is a short chapter and so is the next one. They are both written on the same time frame. i didn't want to repeat to much information so thats why its short and I have tried to make it from both their point of views. The next chapter is back to Ana's.

Thanks for being my beta.

Chapter 26

Christian's POV

I'm amazed at Ana. She did wonderfully in delivery. We have two beautiful babies. What are we going to do? Don't get me started with the diapers. Who knew they pooped black after they were born. It was so sticky, I can't wait until they no longer need diapers.

I noticed that they understood me from the womb. When they weren't settling in their crib I spoke to them. They looked at me, yawned and went to sleep. It amazed me that they knew what I'd said.

Ana has been constantly up and down every time the twins are. I gave her a night off as she fell asleep during dinner. I need to make sure she's coping with the demands.

It was an experience to feed my children. They listened to me the whole time I was feeding them. I was telling them how I met their mommy. It amazed me that they never cried during our feed time together.

It's the 7th of September, they are two weeks old and growing beautifully. Ana's birthday is in three days and I know she's forgotten all about it. I want to be able to do something special for her but she's refusing to leave the babies alone with anyone. She always wants to be close by. I'll figure out a way to get her out of this house, at least for a couple of hours. I don't even think she's left this house since we left the hospital.

I've been in to work and even had some training sessions with Claude. Mrs Jones had told me she's tried to get Ana to go to the shops but Ana comes up with excuses. She's hiding something from me but I can't get her to open up. When I want to talk she tells me that's she is exhausted and just wants to sleep.

Argh! It's frustrating. I wish she would tell me what's wrong so I can help her. Perhaps I could get mom over, do the girl talk thing.

Currently, John is up in our room talking to Ana, while I pace downstairs. I just had enough of her not talking to me, to find her crying and what she said I knew I needed to get him here. I think about what has happened over the last two weeks...
I head to my parents place to organize Ana's party. I briefly have a conversation with mom about Ana and later that day she called by unexpected to check on her.

I have arranged my parents to babysit on Ana's birthday so I can take her out to lunch. It's perfect. They arrived just as the twins finish there feed at 11 and then I escaped with my wife. While we were gone, just close family and friends turned up for a small celebration mid afternoon.

I arrange a necklace with a mother holding two babies and it has diamonds and sapphires embedded I it. She loved it and cried. That's all she has been doing.

Just by looking at my lovely wife I can see she has been crying. She is trying to be strong and I approach and ask her a few times if she needs help but with a shake of her head my offer is declined.

Mom turned up and couldn't figure out if there was anything wrong. She told me Ana looked tired but being a new mom can do that to you. Ana must have put on an act by fooling my mother and I still wasn't buying it

Her birthday was a different story.I swept her off her feet and took her for a romantic lunch. When we got home she was surprised by everyone being at the house for a party. I could see she wasn't fully into the party but I didn't push her for why.

It wasn't until today, when I decided to come home early that I found her curled up on our bed. I hope John can help. I hope she will let me help? I hate not being able to control this. I feel like she needs a good spanking but I know that won't help this situation.

I hear John coming down the stairs.

"Christian, Ana is going to need a lot of support. I'll let her explain it all. Just listen, don't criticize, the most important thing is to reassure her that she has a loving family who wants to help. If you need any questions answered or you would like to talk, call me."

"Thanks, John."

Taylor sees him out and I head upstairs to our room. I knock on the door and enter finding Ana hugging her knees on our bed. What would I do, not to see her like this again ...
