Fragment #19 - Discovering a new world : being a father

Here you are my little one. The nurse gently carries you to me, and sets you in my arms. I don't know if I'm crying, I don't think so, but this baby is so beautiful that I feel like crying. I smile at Charlie, who's resting on her bed. She smiles back, exhausted but magnificent. I sit right next to her and we share the first hug of our baby in this world.
The sweet ballet of hospital people and family and friends starts, but I see nothing, I hear nothing, except her and him, Charlie and my son.
"A little boy... What did you decide to call him?" somebody asks.
"Aidan" Charlie answers.
And my grip gets a bit tighter around him. Aidan, my son.
