The fate of Tyler.

avatar

It was another happy day filled with lots of opportunities which happens to be the beginning of a new week. Mia who is pregnant choose to reduce the rate of her activities seeing that it is getting close to her delivery period. She insisted her husband shouldn't go out seeing the condition she was in, this has been one of their top expectation in their four years of marriage. Bob the husband gladly stayed back carrying out different house chores while Mia was in the sitting room enduring the pains she was experiencing.

Approaching 12 noon, Mia couldn't hold on to the pain anymore. She screamed with the little strength she had calling Bob, Bob ran into the sitting room frightened due to the way Mia screamed. On getting there the situation was far more severe. Bob with the frightened look rushed Mia to the hospital.

Leaving from the house to the hospital, it took about 5mins. It was uneasy with Mia, with the fear in her mind being that it was her first experience. Bob was trying by all means to comfort her but that didn't help.

Reaching the hospital, the nurses quickly attended to Mia. Seeing Mia's condition they rushed her to the delivery room, not spending much time there, she delivered. After all the pain she finally rejoiced, the great news getting to Bob, he couldn't control himself as he jumped up singing and dancing. After all the jubilation, he paused asking to see the wife and the baby.

To spice up everything, Mia gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. A day after, Bob paid the necessary bill asking for permission for them to be discharged. The doctor accepted guiding them on how to take care of the new born baby.

Few weeks from the day Mia gave birth, they carried out a naming ceremony. They both agreed to name the baby Tyler. Tyler grew up to be a handsome boy, the parents always find delight in him. At the age of 6yrs, things started changing for Tyler.

The parents were no longer able to sponsor most of his basic needs, Tyler adapted to the current situation till when he became ten years old. It was time for him to start his secondary education (high school) but no funds. Situations became so messy with Bob's family when he finally lost his job. The whole thing became so uncomfortable for the family.

Tyler could not continue schooling for the meantime, he assisted the mum in carrying out her petty businesses, saving money for him to be able to go back to school. After sometime, Tyler started highschool with full determination to succeed but the distraction he was having was as a result of the parents not meeting up his demands in school.

Due to his performance he was selected to sit for a scholarship examination of which he passed and was given full scholarship. Using this opportunity wisely he spent time engaging himself with his books. Tyler embarked on a scientific project with the aim of rendering a solution to threatening disease faced in the society.

After much research Tyler was able to assist with an idea which saved life's and as a result of that different offers came in. Making him a renowned scientist changing his life and that of his family.

Honestly, this got me laughing really hard 😅

So it wouldn't have been a spiced up situation if she had given to a girl? Just curious.

The story is cool, simple and you sure did make a use of the prompt

Enjoyed the read 😊

After 4yrs what will a man be praying for?🤷🏾‍♀️
The thing here is the woman would have preferred a female child but the man was strong💪.
I don't know if you would understand me, other guys can relate though.

Such a nice story, many are born into a family were hardship and difficulty is the order of the day but are not expected to give up but to keep striving.

Like seriously ☹️
8.5hrs must have been so stressful with you, I'm glad it turned out to be successful. How is the lovely baby?

It was just an imagination my friend. I appreciate your kind words 😊
Please take take good care of yourself and the baby.
Do have a great day.
