It is now down to five minutes apart.I gripped his hand when another contraction hit me.“Ahhhh!” I shouted in pain.“You're ready to go.” Dr. Vanderhurst told me after she timed my contractions to one minute apart.

Although very much aware of the gaping mouths and eyes that followed me, I ignored them. I do not let my eyes look at anyone except Regor. My eyes fixed on his wide-eyed stare.“Katarina, What brought you here? You are supposed to be home, resting.” Regor exclaimed his bewilderment at my sudden appearance in the Palace.

I felt my Samsung phone, placed strategically under my pillow, vibrated, and my heart quickly hammered in my chest in anticipation. My mind on alert, I quickly opened my eyes and fished the phone out of its confines. All this while, my chest heaved in anticipation and excitement.
