Chapter: Coming HomeRosa’s POVThe first time I walked through the front door with my babies in my arms, I stood there for several seconds without moving. Daniel was beside me, carrying our son carefully against his chest while I held our daughter. The house looked exactly as it had before we left, but somehow everything felt different. There were two tiny car seats, two blankets, two babies, and a silence that lasted only until our son made a small sound. Daniel looked down immediately. “He’s already complaining.&zw

Chapter: Two CriesPOV: RosaThe doors shut between Daniel and me, and for a moment all I could hear was the sound of my own breathing. The room was bright, crowded, and moving too quickly. Doctors spoke to one another, nurses adjusted equipment, and someone told me to keep breathing. I wanted to ask about Daniel. I wanted to ask about the babies. I wanted to know whether they were okay. But another contraction came, and I could only close my eyes and hold onto the edge of the bed. Then I heard the doctor say, “We’re ready.” I opened my eyes. “Please,” I whispere&zwnj

Chapter: The DrivePOV: RosaThe twins were coming. The words followed me out of the bedroom as Daniel helped me down the stairs, one careful step at a time. Another contraction tightened across my stomach, and I stopped halfway down, gripping the railing with one hand and Daniel’s arm with the other. He immediately stopped too. “Look at me,” he said.

When the pain eased, we continued. D&

Chapter: The First PainPOV: RosaThe first thing I noticed was the pain. It was not sharp enough to wake me completely, but it was strong enough to pull me out of sleep. I opened my eyes slowly, confused by the darkness around me. For a few seconds, I didn’t remember where I was. Then I felt Daniel’s arm around me and heard his quiet breathing beside me.

Chapter: The Last Night at HomePOV: RosaFor tonight, that was enough. I stayed beside Daniel with his hand resting over my stomach, listening to the quiet rhythm of his breathing. The fear was still somewhere inside me, but it no longer felt like something standing between me and tomorrow. Daniel had reminded me that I did not have to be fearless. I only had to be honest. I leaned closer to him, and he wrapped an arm around my shoulders, pulling me against his chest.“Are you tired?” he asked.“A little.”

Chapter: Rosa’s FearPOV: RosaThe hallway was quiet after Daniel closed the nursery door. I stood there for a moment, looking at the wooden frame, while he kept hold of my hand. Somehow, leaving that room had made everything feel more real. The babies were no longer some distant future we could prepare for slowly. They were coming. Soon, there would be two tiny people sleeping in those cribs, and I would have to become their mother in every sense of the word.“Rosa?”I looked at Daniel. “Hmm?”“You’ve been staring at that door for almost a minute.”“I
