Abandoned Baby
Chapter 188
Author's Note: Thank you to the people reading and reviewing my story. I REALLY appreciate it! I'm also uploading this story to my other fanfiction board on Wattpad along with the songs I post on here to get a feel of the songs to go along with my story. I don't own any of the songs I post on here. These idea of the songs and lullabies are just something I come up with as the ideas from my head come up and just flow together. I don't own anyone in this story unless they're my own characters I make up such as Bless, the kids, and other people who are part of Bless' family and friends.
The next morning Bless got up around 8AM when the sun filtered through her windows. She smiled down at her sweet sleeping baby girl before sweeping her fingers through her dark unruly curls and kissing her forehead.
Bless got out of bed carefully before she wrapped the blankets around Catherine's sleeping frame. She walked out of the room when she heard Isabella's cries so she went to go check on the youngest.
She walked in the nursery to see Isabella wide awake. "Hi there anak. Did you sleep good?" She cooed at the infant girl seeing her little girl smile which the young mom thought it was so cute. It mirrored her own smile.
"Are you hungry baby?" Bless asked her youngest getting her out of the crib carefully.
She walked with the baby to see if she needed to be changed and fed later.
"I think you made a stinky sweetie, let's wash you then put a new diaper on you and mommy will feed you."
The young mother went to the bathroom with Isabella and put her in her portable baby bath to sit her in that way she could give her a good bath. She turned on the water and tested it in her arm to make sure it was warm enough to bathe her daughter.
She smiled making sure it was the right temperature before getting the baby shampoo and soap. The baby giggled and gurgled joyfully as her mom was giving her a bath.
"You're such a good girl Bella. Your Ate (big sister) hated this part when I shampooed or rinsed her hair when she was your age but you really think it's relaxing." Bless giggled telling her infant daughter scrubbing her dark whisps of curly hair and could see her daughter was trying to understand her as the little one babbled.
After giving Isabella a good bath, Bless put ointment and powder on her before putting a new diaper on. She loved the scent of her newborn baby girl after a nice bath. "Now what shall mommy dress you in?" Bless thought as she had Isabella sitting on her hip as she contemplated what to dress her daughter in looking in her drawers. She wanted something cute but nothing too fancy yet comfortable.
She looked around till she found what she needed. A cute yellow baby onesie jumper with a cute yellow matching headband to go with her outfit that had the pink embroidery phrase "Daddy's Little Girl" including with it was a cute princess crown crooked at the end of the letter l where it hung.
"Awwww...you would look so cute in this hon. Do you like the clothes I picked out?" Bless asked her youngest who just smiled at her.
The raven haired woman thought it was the perfect outfit for her. She and Carla had gone shopping when she had been pregnant with Isabella. They went to one of the baby stores to look for outfits till she saw the jumper and fell in love with it.
Once she got Isabella all dressed, she knew it was time for a feeding. Bless grabbed the spitrag out from the diaperbag putting it on her shoulder then went to sit down with Bella at the rocking chair to feed her. She pushed her shirt down a little and let the baby latch on and eat.
"You're a hungry little thing. I think you have papa's appetite." Bless giggled swaddling the small infant in her arms as she rocked with the baby in her arms.
"You know, you, Ate (big sis), and Kuya (Big brother) have your little fingers wrapped around Papa and I. We love you guys so much. Papa and I always wanted to have a big family and that's when you came along in our lives. Papa and I didn't know we were going to have you so soon since we just recently had Alex but still everything turned out great in the end and you turned out to be our little miracle. Your Kuya Alex and Ate Catherine promise to love and take care of you since you're the bunso (youngest). They won't let anybody hurt you and I won't let them either. If you have any problems down in the future, you have the best siblings ever to protect you and you have me and Papa. Papa isn't afraid to hurt anybody that would make you cry and chase away the boys. If you need to talk to anybody or need advice, you can always come to me anak (my daughter). I'll always be here for you and love you. No matter what you do in life, I'll be right by your side to support you. You also have the greatest Tito's (Uncles), Tita's (Aunties), Ninong's (Godfathers), and Ninangs (Godmothers) who who love and adore you just like they do with Ate and Kuya."
Bless smiled down at her daughter who looked up at her with her beautiful brown eyes that reflected her own. She knew her daughter was listening intently to her while she ate as if her daughter understood every word she was saying.
After finishing feeding the baby, she burped her and rocked her for awhile holding on to her little girl humming a soft lullaby "Ili-Ili Tulog Anay" (Sleep For Awhile) by that her mom used to sing to her when she was a baby.
"Ili-Ili Tulog Anay" by ASIN
Ili-ili Tulog Anay
Ili-ili tulog anay,
Wala diri imo nanay.
Kadto tienda bakal papay.
Ili-ili tulog anay.
English translation:
Sleep for a while.
Your mother is not here.
Went to the market to buy bread.
Sleep for a while.
Bless' soft yet beautiful voice flowed through the room as she sang to her baby girl as she rocked her in her arms. She looked down to see her beautiful infant daughter had fallen asleep due to her sweet melodic voice and smiled at the sweet sleeping infant.
"You're so beautiful when you sleep sweetheart. I love you so much." She then bent to place a gentle kiss to her temple before bringing the baby back to the crib placing her baby blanket on her as she watched her daughter sleep for a few minutes gently humming the end of the lullaby meanwhile rubbing her covered back.
Once she knew her youngest was asleep, she took the monitor with her and turned on the night light as she left the room.
The WWE PA went to check on her oldest Catherine to see if she was awake knowing she left the toddler in her and Drew's room to see her awake and watched cartoons on tv.
"Good morning sweetie pie." Her mom greeted her daughter with a soft smile walking in the room.
The toddler smiled her cute toothy smile seeing her mom as she bounced off the bed and pounced into her mom's awaiting arms.
"Good morning mommy!" The little girl beamed giving her mommy hugs and kisses.
"Now this is what I call a good morning greeting." Bless laughed giving her daughter a gentle squeeze and a kiss on the forehead.
"Mommy, wat we doing this morning?" The little girl asked as she was attached to her mother's hip.
"I don't know yet sweetie pie unless you can come up with something we can all do."
"Make pancakes with chocolate milk first?" Her two year old daughter suggested they make breakfast together unless Alex woke up later since he tended to wake up late just like Drew did most mornings and hoped to do something later as well as when Bella woke up later again for another feeding and change.
"That sounds lika great idea baby." Her mom agreed.
The two girls decided to start on breakfast since mornings were their routine to be up together to have their little girl time and do something fun. Mornings were Cat's favorite time of day just to hang out with her mom and she loved bonding with her.
Usually when Drew was away, Bless always made sure to spend more time with the kids. When it was night time, she and Cat had their nightly chats with Drew, the guys, sometimes the divas whoever was on to talk with before bed time. When Drew was home, they both spent equal time with the kids and made sure they had time for each other when all the kids were asleep.
Cat loved spending time with her mom helping her make breakfast. She learned how to make yummy food and she was the taste tester in the end. It made her appreciate she had a REAL mom that loved and took care of her. She even loved having a daddy the same way her mommy loved her. She even adored her new baby brother and baby sister. She promised her daddy she would be the big girl in charge to help mommy to love and take extra care of them.
"Mama, can I ask you something?" The toddler asked curiously.
Her mom nodded looking in her direction. "Of course pumpkin, anything."
"Mama, how come I don't look like you or papa?" Catherine was curious as she looked up at Bless wondering why they didn't look alike since her new friend Sadie she played with asked why she looked different from her parents.
Bless stopped shat she was doing and walked over to where she sat Cat on the counter.
"Why do you ask that hon?" Her mom asked her that as she rested her palms of her daughter's legs looking into her daughter's eyes.
"Sadie, my new friend from the park I played with was wondering why I don't look like you or papa, am I different mommy?"
Bless smiled at her daughter. "Of course not 're very special to me and papa. You were just a baby when your real mommy died. Papa and I found you along with Uncle Randy and Uncle Johnny and we adopted you. That's the moment Papa and I fell in love with you and we couldn't leave you alone another night. I'm sure wherever your real mommy is, she's smiling down from heaven seeing how lovely you've grown out to be and I'm glad we found you and took you in as our family. You'll always be our first baby and that will never change."
Cat smiled at what her mommy told her. She was glad to have the family that she always loved abd wanted her that took her as their own. She just wished she knew her real mommy though.
"What about my real daddy mommy?" The little girl was curious what happened to him.
Her mom sighed not sure how to tell her how her real father was the cause of her mother's death. She wasn't sure if the two year old would be able to take what happened to her. She didn't want to upset her little girl.
"Mommy, what's wrong?" Cat asked her mom seeing her look sad.
"I sowwy mommy, don't cry." She took her little hands to wipe her mommy's tears away.
"Hon, maybe it's best if I explain that to you when you get a little older okay?" her mom suggested with a watery smile and took her daughter's small palm and kissed it sweetly.
Cat understood her and nodded as her mom closed in the gap between them to enbrace her little girl and placed a gentle kiss on top of her head.
"I love you Catty."
"I wuv you mama." The little girl smiled in her mom's embrace.
After the girls had their heart to heart talk, they finished up on breakfast, cleaned up the kitchen and table, and spent some time doing their girly bonding until it was time till Alex woke up.
Cat loved helping her mom when it came to Alex and even to help feed him with her mommy's help. She brought things to her mom whatever she needed for Alex or Isabella. She felt like a proud big sister. Bless was so proud of her little girl how she helped with the babies having a little helper around instead of doing things by herself.
Cat couldn't wait to talk to her daddy at night telling him the things she and Bless did during the day including helping her take care of Alex and Belle. She loved having new siblings and at least she could talk to them and they would understand her.
During the afternoon since it was a beautiful day out, Bless decided to take the kids out for the day at the park. She had a picnic also planned out for her and Catherine since she brought some snacks for them to munch on.
After their picnic and a few picture snapshots, the family were about to head home walking when she saw Saraya (Paige) and Jon (Dean) walk by hand in hand interacting with each other. The young beautiful female Brit was laughing something the Lunatic Fringe was saying to her. Bless thought it was so cute to see her best friend look so happy and carefree with her beau at her side that made her feel loved and happy.
She would have to talk to the young girl later when she arrived home safe and sound with the dishwater blonde haired superstar to get all the details. The beautiful raven haired diva lived about two blocks up the street so she visited frequently when she could.
"Mommy, was that Aunty Sar?" Her oldest asked at her side helping to push Isabella and Alex in the stroller when she seen the British beauty.
Bless nodded and smiled. "It was baby. We'll likely talk to her later when we talk to Papa tonight."
When they arrived home, Bless had Catherine put things away for her and had her help with Alex and Isabella then got to spend time with her siblings and mom which was her favorite activity when they were together.
