Ray's family, as well as his close friends, were now anxiously awaiting news. Ray, usually as calm as a snake, was now the most nervous of all. He regretted giving in to the girls' persuasion and refusing partner childbirth — they were firmly convinced that such an experience could make him impotent. The main opponents of this idea were Kira and Miku, so Ray had to back down.
Seeing his friend like this, Tyler said:
"I was right, you should have had a drink to relax. The doctors know their job, so everything will be fine."
Tyler was right — everything went well, but if Ray hadn't already been gray-haired, this birth would have turned him gray.
They learned from the doctors that the little one weighed 4200 grams. The girls were as happy as if the baby were their own. The birth went very smoothly, so Ray was easily allowed into the room.
When he carefully took the little one in his arms, Miku, clearly exhausted after such a feat, smiled tenderly.
The little one, like most children, had sky-blue eyes. Ray was a little afraid that seeing his face, his daughter might cry, but she just tightly grabbed his finger.
The girl was named Lilian — the name was chosen by family vote.
That night was sleepless not only for those close to Miku. Deya was also waiting for news, and only upon learning that everything was fine could she breathe a sigh of relief. She was very sorry she couldn't be there.
