(EPISODE ELEVEN) Ese  bends over the baby’s Cot, rubbing her little arms and raises her head to smile at Belema who is lying on the hospital bed, tired. Belema's white cotton night gown sits comfortably on her skin while Aunty Ibiso sits next to her on the bed, wrapping her arms round hers. Ese flashes a warm smile first at Bami who is standing next to his Aunty feeling mesmerised about his wife's delivery and next at aunty Ibiso and finally at Belema. “I bet I’ll be taking my leave now I've got lots of things to attend to.” “Is that so?
