Six and a half months later on February seventh Rikard Mikhail Enu Scott and Desdemona Gwendolen Nsia Scott were born. They were both blondes. Rikard was six inches long and five pounds, Desdemona was five inches long and five pounds, six ounces. They were both small, but Rikard was doing much better than Desdemona. Desdemona had pneumonia and wasn't doing very well. The doctors found out she was allergic to the medicine they were giving her, so that just made her worse, but Rikard was coming home today, a week old. Aurora, Magdalene, Fareeda and Tassia were excited that their little brother was coming home. They had made many arrangements in the house for their arrival, Rikard would get the bedroom at the very far end of the hall, and Desdemona, when she came home, the one directly next to it. Rikard didn't cry all to much, he just lay where he was put and watched everyone with his eyes. Aurora tried to carry him, and play with him, like he was one of her dollies, but Luke put a stop to that when she tried to put a dress on him and she ran crying to Brooke.
"Mommy, Mommy, daddy's being really really mean to me," She cried running from her room.
"What did evil daddy do this time?" Brooke asked as Lucas walked in the room carrying Rikard.
"He-he-he took Rikard away, I was only playing with him, honestly mommy." Aurora climbed into Brooke's lap.
"Lucas, why wouldn't you let our sweet angel play with her brother?" Brooke asked him, winking at Aurora.
"The little monster tried to put a dress on him, and then she wanted to do his make-up, he's a boy for crying out loud, boys don't wear make-up, boys don't wear dresses." "Well its better than what Magdalene tried to do earlier, I swear, when she's old enough, into the military she goes, she tried to throw him out the window of her room, that her and Peyton had a blast redecorating, might I add." Brooke said. Lucas started laughing.
"She did that with Fareeda, and Tassia, she wanted to throw both of them out the window, and when Desdemona comes home, she'll try to do it to her too, don't think Rikard is different, my only little boy." "Oh that girl's little cute butt is so grounded." Brooke started laughing. "Maggie, oh Magdalene, where oh where are you?" Brooke called out.
"She's with Peyton, I swear, she's with her just as much as she's with us." Lucas said laughing, going to Rikard's room to put him down for a nap.
"Now, Aurora, baby, go dress up Tassia and Fareeda, they need some of your fashion sense, I think they sadly take after daddy," Brooke pushed her out of her room to find her sisters. "Fareeda, Tassia, mama, says you have to play with me, cause you has no fashion senses." Aurora said giggling.
"We're watching a movie, Aurora, go play with Magdalene," Tassia said.
"Magdalene's not home." "Go play with one of your gazillion friends," Tassia shot back.
"I don't want to, I want to play with my sisters." "To bad Aurora, why don't you go play with mommy, or even Daddy, or watch the movie with us," Tassia offered, returning to the movie. Aurora sat on the floor and pouted. She cried silently and crossed her arms across her chest and stuck out her bottom lip, she was a sight.
