-Nearly a year later, exactly by 9 months- (Pita's P.O.V.)

I grimaced as my hand literally lost feeling from the hard clutching of Helga's grip. "Any moment now, love.". I said quickly.

"Speak for yourself, Pita William Crestwood! I'll never let you get near me ever again! Hell, it hurts!". Helga snapped with a growl at me, and I flinched physically with my hand drawing out from Helga's grip. I was grateful that Helga had convinced me that we can do a home birth for our twins, soon to come. Luckily, a few of the hospital staff has come to help deliver them.

I asked, "How much longer, doc?". The head doctor, a old friend of my mother, Samuel grinned, "Actually, one of them is coming in a minute, if you can push now, Mrs. Crestwood!". Helga grunted in pain as she contracted and pushed with all her might this time, and to my surprise and happiness, the first baby's born. With Samuel's skill, he was able to help the baby breath, and sure enough, I heard a loud, yet healthy scream. I exhaled in relief as I saw Samuel hand the baby to the nurse as I saw that it was a boy, my firstborn son.

"Helga, it's a boy! We got a firstborn son!". I called out happily as I looked at Helga, sweating yet looking all the beautiful to me. She's panting yet she got the strength to smile, "Is he okay?".

"He looks great and sounds good from that first scream he did. Now we got another one coming. Just hold on, love.". I declared as I kissed her forehead. She heaved a breath, and grimaced in pain, "Geez, it's so hard, Pita! I don't think I can do it again.".

I frowned and touched her shoulder gently, "Helga, you can do it. It's our second twin. How badly do you want to see our kid?". Helga narrowed her eyes, and inhaled a breath and exhaled deeply, "Very badly. I've been trained for all kinds of scenarios, and this doesn't count, but the pain counts, so bring it on! Doc, how many pushes?".

We looked at Samuel, and he suggested with a reassuring smile, "Just two or three pushes, ma'am. I am ready to receive the second baby, so in the count of three, give a push. One, Two, Three!". Helga grunted as she pushed hard, swallow breaths escaping her mouth. Samuel looked up, "Just another push. I can feel the baby's head. Take your time before you're ready once more, ma'am.". Helga panted heavily, and looked at me, and I smiled reassuringly to her, "It's okay, it's okay. Just another push, and soon, we'll have both twins in our arms!".

Helga smiled gratefully with her bright blue eyes sparkling in happiness yet exhaustion. She looked at Samuel, "Tell me when!". Samuel glanced down, then up, and called out, "One, Two, Three!". Helga once more grunted, this time louder, as she pushed very hard. I saw Samuel move to catch the baby, and soon enough, I heard a scream from the baby, signifying that it's healthy too. Samuel grinned at us, "It's a girl, you got a daughter!".

Helga exhaled a breath of exhaustion as a smile adorned her face, one strand covering her eye, as she leaned back against the headboard. I kissed her cheek, pushed back the strand, and stared into her eyes, "You did wonderful, Helga.". She cupped my chin, and moved slightly to kiss me on the lips, and we heard soft cries as we looked up to see Samuel and the nurse, Erica, holding one baby each. Our son was obliviously bundled in a blue blanket, while our daughter was bundled in a cream blanket.

Helga sat up slowly with my help, and under a minute, we received our babies. Myself holding our son while Helga held our daughter. I was lost in love as I never took my eyes off my son, so perfect, all 20 fingers and toes intact. He has received Helga's nose, my chin, while a wisp of his hair is a dark mix of our hair colors; a cinnamon brown, and his skin tone is a shade darker than Helga's skin tone. "He's beautiful, Pita. And so is our daughter.". I smiled as I gestured to trade our babies, and Helga smiled, and so we did. Now with my daughter, she literally has me wrapped in her finger, intact with all 20 fingers and toes, beautiful. She has received Helga's cheekbones, my nose, while a tiny wisp of her hair is silky blonde, just like her mother, and her skin tone is a shade lighter than my skin tone.

"Do you think they're gonna open their eyes any minute now?". I exhaled. I heard a chuckle, and I glanced over to see Helga cuddling our son closer, and said, "Of that, I have no doubt. Now, for names. You still on for 'Amanaki' for this little guy?". I nodded, "Yes, I am. And for his middle name, you can do that one.". Helga smiled at that, and glanced at our son, and replied, "I like 'Pepin', it means petitioner.".

I murmured, "Amanaki Pepin Crestwood. It rings well with me.". Helga smiled. She then asked gently, "I have a idea for our little girl.". I glanced again at our daughter, and back to Helga. Helga mused thoughtfully for a minute, and then grinned as one popped up. "How do you feel about 'Lilli'?".

I nodded, "A pure name for a beautiful girl. May I do the middle name?". Helga nodded, and I smiled, "What do you say for her middle name to be 'Christina?".

Helga widened her eyes slightly, and exhaled as she understood that I knew she did give 'Lilli' to honor Leane, and now I just did the same, honoring Chirstopher by giving the name 'Christina' for our daughter's middle name. Helga smiled at that, and said, "Welcome to our home and world, Amanaki Pepin and Lilli Christina Crestwood.".

A pair of whimpers accompained just a second later, and we both exhaled a breath as we saw our children's eyes. Little Naki has dark hazel eyes, and Lilli surprised us both for she's bi-colored. Her right eye is light ice blue while her left eye has my chestnut brown color. We looked up at each other, and I grinned, "I think our children has begun their happy beginnings by claiming their names.". Helga sighed lightly, "Christopher and Leana must be proud of us by now. Our lives has barely begun, and now, look at us. Our family just grew.".

I nodded, "Yes, and the town has grew by just a bit once more.". Helga chuckled to agree with me, and we went back to glance upon our children, forever belonging in our arms and our lives. Life just got better, no, fantastic.
