The birds were singing, the wind whoring.

A man with the name Dolo is sleeping, his wife Donna is pregnant.

Dolo POV

The singing of the birds and whoring of the wind woke me up. I sat up on my bed then looked at the small clock that stood on the wall, it was just six a.m.

"Why do I have to be awake by this time?" I ask myself turning back to the bed to sleep.

I didn't get enough rest last week due to my work load but it would be different now because I have no work to do.

I laid my head on the mattress to sleep but I couldn't get any sleep so I looked out of the window. Then I remembered my wife Dinna who is pregnant of our second child after we lost our first child.

I got off the bed. I put on a thick cloth and a black jean, wore my canvas and left the house.

I entered my bike and zoomed off to Dinna's parent house.

Dinna POV

He arrived past seven, the baby was kicking hard.

"I can't lose this child, Dolo." I said to my husband, "Please be fast." I said as he carried me into the house of the Native doctor close to my parents house.

He didn't have the money he would be asked to pay by modern doctor so he chose to use our native doctor.

The native doctor gave me a leaf to chew. I collected the leaf from the native doctor and began to chew.

Some minutes later,

"We would begin the process now." The native doctor said making me lay my back on the mattress he had placed on the floor.

"Dolo, hold her hands." The native doctor said and Dolo came over to hold both of my hand. Then the native doctor started the process.

"Push!!" The doctor called out.

"Uhmm!." I screamed as I pushed.

Five minutes later the baby was out.

I smiled as the native doctor handed the baby over to his helper to clean up.

Dolo POV

I kept rubbing her hand to keep her warm after she gave birth. She finally let go of my hand.

" My love, do you want anything?" I asked her seeing the changes on her face.

"Water, I want water." She said in a faint voice.

Her parents were outside, they were both aged while my parents were no more.

Her mother brought with her a bottle water which she opened. She gave the bottle water to Dinna who drank a little then laid her head on my chest.

The doctor and his helper came out with the baby girl and I took her.

I looked at Dinna then at her parents.

I looked into the cute little eyes staring at me and smiled, I them handed her to Dinna.

Days later,

Dolo and Dinna along with Dinna's parent were in the baby's ceremony where the priest would tell what the baby destiny is and they would choose a suitable name for the baby.

Dinna POV

The ceremony started as the priest placed some milk into my baby's mouth.

My baby moved her mouth and the priest placed her legs on the mat so that she could stand.

My baby looked at me almost in tears.

"Dolo" The priest called my husband.

"Pa" My husband said.

"Dinna" The priest also called me.

"Pa" I said.

We both went towards the priest.

The priest handed us the baby and used his wooden fan to wave the baby who kept smiling.

"Chira." The priest said and we looked at him.

He then continued, "Yes she shall be called Chira, she is going to be the tiger of her generation." He smiled looking at the baby who smiled then continued, "She is going to rule her world, rule her territory, she is also going to be a great warrior." He said smiling then called CHIRA holding up his staff.

Chira began to cry and I held her to myself.

She was so beautiful, she looked like her father's grandmother who was a warrior in those days.

Chira gave a sneeze. I carried her into the room to give her suck after which I allowed her rest for sometimes before laying her on the wooden cot to sleep.

I went into the bathroom to take my shower, I heard Chira cry and immediately stepped out of the bathroom and walked over to the wooden cot where I laid her.

Dolo POV

I heard Chira's cry and went into the room. I saw Dinna in the room giving her suck. Chira looked up from her mother to me and smiled.

Dinna also looked at me and smiled. Knowing that all was well, I went out of the room.

Dinna POV

I kept giving her suck until she took her face off me.

I laid her back after some minutes in the cot and retreated to the bathroom when I again heard Chira's cry.

"What is wrong with Chira." I said to myself as I came out of the bathroom and carried her for some while thinking she would sleep but she refused to sleep.

I was so tired, I decided to have my bath very early next morning.

I looked at Chira's cute eyes telling her goodnight.

Dolo came into the room yawning.

Chira increased her cry.

I handed her over to Dolo but she didn't stop crying.

Dolo wanted to drop her in the cot but she grabbed his T shirt collar not wanting to let go of him.

"Okay baby Chira we would all go out." Dolo said.

We came out of the room and Chira stopped crying.

My parents had gone to their house so we were the only one left.

Chira smiled at her father.

Dolo checked his pocket then shocked his head.

He told me he wants to go bring his phone from inside the room and I nodded.

He handed Chira to me and started walking towards the room.

Chira began to cry louder than before.

Dolo POV

I walked towards the room and heard Chira cry. I looked at her and smiled. I continued walking towards the room and finally got to the room door.

I opened the door and Chira's cry increased but I took courage and went into the room.

I looked at the room and immediately the door closed. I went back to open the door then turned to look at the room and immediately fainted.

Dinna POV

He fainted and I carried Chira with me so she won't cry but she continued crying.

I ran to my husband with Chira's hand rapped around my neck. I felt his pulse, he was still breathing. I wanted to know what in the room made him faint.

I opened the room door slowly and felt Chira's hand covering my eyes.

I tried taking off her hands from my eyes but her hand became too huge for me to take off.

I felt strange about Chira's hand been huge all of a sudden.
