That night… felt longer than usual.

Dante stood on the balcony of the guest room.

City lights flickered in the distance.

But his mind… wasn’t there.

Ivy.

That name kept echoing in his head.

That tiny face. That fragile breath.

Dante closed his eyes.

“I’ll take care of everything…”

His own words replayed in his mind.

    Darius read the message twice.Aurora noticed the subtle change in her husband's expression."What is it?"He handed her his phone.Aurora slowly read the message."The doctor wants us to come in sooner?""Yes.""Why?""That's exactly what I'm about to ask."Darius immediately dialed the doctor's number.The phone rang several times.A moment later, the call connected."Good evening, Doctor."Aurora watched the conversation.Darius simply nodded several times."Tomorrow morning?""All right.""I understand."A few seconds later, the call ended.Aurora looked at him immediately."What did the doctor say?""She wants to move your examination to an earlier date.""That's all?"Darius nodded."She said there's no need to panic. She just wants to monitor your blood pressure more closely."Aurora let out a slow breath."That makes more sense.""Even so, I still don't like the words earlier than planned."Aurora took his hand."We'll go tomorrow.""Of course."Morning arrived beneath a sky s

    That morning, the Harrington residence was filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread.Hazel came running out of the dining room, clutching a sheet of paper."Mommy!"Aurora, who was sitting in the living room, looked up."What is it?""I got homework."Hazel handed her the paper.Aurora read it slowly."Write a letter to your future self."She smiled."That's a wonderful assignment."Hazel nodded."But I don't know what to write yet."Aurora gently stroked her daughter's hair."Just write about what you hope for your future, Hazel.""In that case..."Hazel immediately sat down on the carpet.She grabbed her box of colored pencils.Then began writing in handwriting that was still slightly uneven.Darius walked out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of fruit."What is our little princess doing?""Writing a letter.""To whom?""To the Hazel she'll become one day."Darius watched his daughter for a few moments."Then what if Daddy writes a letter too?"Aurora raised an eyebrow."To whom?"

    The sentence trailed off.Aurora's eyes remained closed.Darius immediately placed his hands gently on her shoulders."Aurora."Slowly, she opened her eyes.She looked slightly confused."Darius?""You were dreaming."Aurora blinked several times."Dreaming?"Darius nodded."You were talking in your sleep."Aurora tried to remember.But nothing came back clearly.She could only recall a long road.Then two small children running ahead of her.Hazel was there too.They were all smiling.But when Aurora tried to catch up with them, her steps grew heavier and heavier.After that...Nothing."What did I say?"Darius fell silent.He didn't want to repeat the words he had just heard."I don't remember.""Darius."He let out a quiet sigh."You said... if one day you didn't have enough time."Aurora frowned."Didn't have enough time for what?""That was all."She stared up at the bedroom ceiling.Then gave a soft laugh."It was probably just a strange dream.""Maybe."But Darius didn't sound

    Aurora took a slow breath.Then she reached for Darius's hand."I think... I'm getting tired much faster than I did when I was pregnant with Hazel."Darius studied her face carefully."That's normal, isn't it?""I thought so too."Aurora tried to smile."But it feels different.""Different how?"She paused for a moment."I don't really know how to explain it.""Exhausted?""Yes.""Weak?""Sometimes."Aurora rubbed her temple."And every now and then, my head feels unusually heavy."Darius frowned immediately."Since when?""A few days ago.""Why are you only telling me now?"Aurora gave a small laugh."Because I thought it was just part of being pregnant."Darius didn't look convinced."We're seeing the doctor tomorrow.""I just had a checkup a few days ago.""We're going again."Aurora shook her head."You really never change.""I hope I never do."He helped her sit down on the sofa by the window."Is your head still hurting?""It's better now."Even so, Darius still didn't look reas

    Hazel fell silent, thinking once more.Aurora and Darius waited patiently.The little girl tilted her head."...looks like Daddy."Darius smiled."So one takes after each of us?"Hazel nodded firmly."Yep."Aurora chuckled."That's a pretty fair dream."Hazel looked pleased with her own answer."And they were really tiny.""They would be.""They were holding my hand."Aurora sat down on the edge of the bed."And then?""They said something."Darius sat beside his daughter."They could talk?"Hazel nodded softly."They can in dreams.""What did they say?"Hazel frowned as she tried to remember."They said... Big Sister."Aurora and Darius exchanged a glance.Hazel smiled."I liked that dream."Aurora gently stroked her daughter's cheek."Maybe it's because you're already so excited to meet them.""I am."The little girl yawned."Then they disappeared."Darius pulled the blanket up over Hazel."Then it's time for you to go back to sleep."Hazel closed her eyes.A few seconds later, she

    Aurora followed Darius's gaze.She gently placed a hand over her stomach."So... who do you think will wear us out first?"Aurora smiled faintly."I don't think it'll be them."Darius raised an eyebrow."Then who?""You.""Me?"Aurora nodded confidently."You haven't even met them yet, and you've already made a vitamin schedule, a meal schedule, a rest schedule... and before long, you'll probably have a breathing schedule too."Darius chuckled softly."That's called being prepared.""No, that's called overdoing it.""I call it love."Aurora shook her head with a laugh."In that case, I can't argue with you."They walked out of the hospital feeling much lighter than when they had arrived.For the first time since learning they were expecting twins, everything felt real.It was no longer just a test result.No longer just an image on a monitor.Now they were truly beginning to picture the new life waiting for them.As soon as their car pulled into the driveway, Hazel was already standin
