The Human Alpha

Handling the big news

"Are you sure that you are ready for the news?it's quite huge!"Tran had to make sure that he was very much prepared.

"Yes dear,say it out whatever that is it,I am now ready than never before!"

He said becoming even more curious.

"We are going to have a baby Benson!"

She said.

Benson had never expected this,he knew that the news was going to be a good one but this was just great.

"Tell me this is not a joke dear?"

"Am very much serious, Sarah just confirmed at the hospital and found out that I am pregnant."

This came as a huge shock to him,he thought that he was maybe day dreaming and just had to confirm that it was a reality indeed.

For tvs the longest time ever, Benson Gravis had been having a dream of one day becoming a father and all this was coming into reality.

He was very happy that made him pray to God for the second time in his life thanking him on his goodness and mercies which always endures forever. Tran was so shoked at this and was so glad to hear the holy Spirit taking place.

"Okay my love,now let's go inside for you to have some rest, you must have been exhausted."Benson said to her after he had finished praying.

They happily got inside the house and Tran was very hungry too but was so lucky for he had been waiting for her as he prepared some food for her.

He used her skill and arranged them well at the table just as she did as even covered them in the hands of God through a prayer before proceeding with the meal.

After the prayers,Tran took a spoon and scooped some beef stew soup and it tasted very great.

"Mmmh Benson! You really have become a Chef!"

"Thank you dear,I had prepared it specifically for you."

He then joined her with the meal though he had now started behavior strangely or catiously,he had literally started monitoring each and every move that she made,he could never allow even a fly to disturb her especially now that she was having a child.

"Make sure that you now eat a lot dear, remember that you are now not alone. Eat as much as you can for the bady."

"Come on Benson,it is barely a week and you have already started up with the victimization."she said it in a friendly dear.

"Did not mean it that way dear,I just want to make sure that you and the baby are going to be okay."

"We are, Sarah told me to take a lot of fluids too,to add on that I stopped drinking a long time ago so it really is going to be fine."

Benson was well convinced by the responsibility that she was going to take in making sure that the unborn would be okay for she had always been a responsible one.

Though he could intentionally not allow her to engage in any work.She would just sit lazily as she enjoyed Benson walking all over the compound trying to cater for the needs of her and the unborn.

Each and every day, Benson would wake up very early in the morning and wash the previous utensils for the other day,mopp the whole house then find something to cook for his lover.

In the middle of the day, Benson being from a low socioeconomic class had to try as much as possible to find something heavy and stressful for him to get a little money to cater for his lover and the unborn one.

He had worked in a construction site as a hand man where the contractor noticed his hardwork and had to call him privately as he was so much impressed.

"Hey young man!! just realized ya you are really the most hard-working,what's the reason behind all this effort?" His contactor asked.

"Thank you very much,actually sir,my girlfriend is expectant.I need to find some money to cater for her even after she delivers."

"Dont you think that it would be better if you consider taking a loan so that you can have enough time with your girlfriend?I strongly suggest that you do that,it helped me back then I was expecting my sixteenth born."Benson was very suprised of the number that he even forgot about the intensity of the message.

"Excuse me sir,did you just say your sixteenth child?"

"Yah, from my fifth wife. She has the least number of children."

Benson had thought that it was all done not knowing that there was more to come.

"With all those children sir as I want to assume,how do you take care of them?"

"It's called planning.I am an organized man and before I consider anything,I must have a plan. I took all of them to my private school where they all learn for free,as we speak, I am very proud to say that my first born is a pilot and i am never going to regret my decision of siring many children since the Bible also encourages so. Infact,i am planning to add some more children, they bring a lot of joy in me."

They left their conversation of the day at that point leaving Benson in a lot of thinking.

The man had more than a multitude of children and seemed not to be shaken or worried even a little bit. Him with only one who had not yet been convinced was running up and down making sure that they were all okay. Life was never fair

This gave him the decision to take some time and relax and try to come up with a most suitable solution for he thought that he was overreacting.

He also had to come up with a very strong plan his as his contractor was, even if he was not going to have that much number of children as him,it really appeared okward, having coming out from a family with him being as the one and only child.
