Gesare.

The room is too quiet, that's the first thing I notice when I wake again, not the steady beeping of the monitor beside me, not the faint hum of machines or the distant shuffle of footsteps outside the door, is the silence I notice.

It's the kind that settles into your bones.

The kind that forces you to think.

I stare at the ceiling for a long moment, blinking slowly, trying to steady my breathing as everything comes back in fragments from the fall, to the pain I am feeling right now a

    GesareI didn’t think I could cry anymore.My tears had run dry hours ago, or so I thought.But the second they placed him in my arms warm, tiny, impossibly perfect I started all over again. He was so much smaller than I expected.His little hands were curled into tight fists, one pressed to his rosy cheek. Dark hair stuck to his damp forehead. His skin was soft as velvet against my chest.And when he turned his face just enough to make a small, hiccupping noise, something in me broke open completely.I forgot the pain.I forgot the fear.I forgot the way my heart had nearly torn itself apart when I realized I’d be delivering him without Luca at my side.Because he was here now.And so was Luca.I looked up from the baby our, baby to find Luca watching me from the chair beside the bed.He hadn’t said much since they’d cleaned our son and tucked him against my chest.He’d just sat there, one hand braced on his cane, the other clenched so tightly on the armrest his knuckles were white.

    GesareHospitals had a smell, a smell I had come to know far too well full of antiseptic and sometimes smelt like coffee that had been sitting too long.It also smelt like fear, It was strange how fear could have a scent.It lingered in waiting rooms, clung to walls, settled into the faces of strangers pretending they weren't terrified.I tightened my grip around the paper cup of coffee in my hands as I stepped through the oncology wing.My heart hammered so loudly I could hear it in my ears.I almost turned around, Part of me wanted to.Part of me wanted to run back to the car and pretend none of this was happening.Because if I walked any farther, I couldn't keep pretending my life hadn't changed but this is where I needed to be, he needed me and I was going to be there for him. I rounded the corner and there he was.He was sitting alone in one of the blue waiting room chairs, elbows resting on his knees, absentmindedly turning his wedding band around his finger.He looked smaller

    GesareThe drive home was unbearably quiet.The kind of quiet that settled between two people who desperately wanted to speak but no longer knew which words belonged to them.I sat in the passenger seat, staring out the window as the lake disappeared behind us asTrees blurred into one another.The sky had begun to darken, heavy clouds gathering overhead as if the world itself couldn't decide whether to hold back or break.It suited my mood.Neither of us had said a word since we left the lake house.Cliff had stayed behind with Diane, they were going to drive up together, neither of them had tried to stop us when we left, there was nothing left to say.Kumba kept both hands on the steering wheel, his knuckles white against the leather.His eyes never left the road.I wondered if he was seeing it at all.Or if, like me, he was somewhere else entirely.Back in that lake house.Back in a confession that had shattered both our lives.A tear slid down my cheek before I realized I was cryin

    KumbaI found her exactly where I thought she would be by the pool.The afternoon sun reflected off the water, making everything look peaceful.It was a lie, nothing about our lives was peaceful anymore.Cliff stood up as soon as he saw me approaching."There you are." I said "I have been looking everywhere for my wife."Cliff smiled "I figured."He glanced briefly at Gesare before looking back at me."I should probably head out.""You don't have to." I said automatically.He shook his head "I have got a few things to take care of anywhere."He walked over and clapped my shoulder gently."You call if you need anything.""I always do.""I mean it.""So do I."For a brief second, something unreadable passed between us. It was gone before I could place it then Cliff turned to Gesare.He smiled warmly."Take care of yourself."She nodded "I will."He walked toward the front gate without another word. I watched him leave before turning back to my wife.She was staring at the water and look

    GesareI couldn't breathe not because anything was physically wrong but because my life had become one impossible secret after another.Kumba's cancer was back, Diane was dying.Our family had barely survived the truth about my mother's death and now, I rested my hand against my stomach, I was pregnant, another baby, a tiny life growing inside me.I still couldn't wrap my head around it but It didn't make sense.Every doctor had told Kumba the chemotherapy he had gone through years ago had left him unable to have children.We had believed them, I had believed them and yet Dr. Valentina's blood test didn't lie, I was pregnant.The word alone made my heart race, I should have been happy, I should have been celebrating but I was terrified.How could I tell a man who had just been told his cancer was back that we were having another baby?How could I put that kind of weight on his shoulders when he was already struggling to carry his own? I slipped quietly out the back door while everyon

    KumbaThe silence in my mother's hospital room felt heavier than anything we had said to each other. Dr. Valentina had left us alone after explaining the diagnosis. The words still echoed inside my head.Advanced liver failure, she had advanced liver failure and I was having difficulty understanding that, there were medications, lifestyle changes, supportive treatment. But there was no miracle waiting around the corner and the damage had already been done.What made me angry the most was the fact that she found out about her diagnosis months ago and kept it a secret and also refused treatment. I looked at my mother and she seemed so much smaller than I remembered.Not because she had physically shrunk but because the woman who had always seemed invincible didn't anymore.She sat quietly on the edge of the hospital bed, absentmindedly twisting the blanket between her fingers.For the first time in my life she looked frightened and I hated it."You have been through enough for one lif

    GesareThe first thing I notice is the sound of machines, beeping around me. A slow, rhythmic sound that seems to echo inside my skull.My eyelids feel heavy, like someone glued them shut, but I force them open anyway. The bright white light above me stings my eyes, making me squint and for a momen

    Gesare“Do the test again.” The thin sheet of paper trembles violently in my hands as I stare down at the results, two pink lines“This can't be right,” I whisper, my voice rising into a desperate shout with a tremor. “I can't be pregnant, This has to be wrong.”The nurse shifts uncomfortably beside

    Then I feel Kumba's arm around my shoulders.The hospital bed beneath me.The ache in my body.The baby.Moraa.My eyes open slowly.The room is brighter now.Morning sunlight spills through the windows.And Kumba is still beside me.I must have fallen asleep against him sometime during the night b

    I realize how exhausted I am until everyone finally leaves the room.Diane stepped out to speak with hospital security again.The nurses came and went, the hallway quieted.And now it’s just me and Gesare again.Only this time, everything between us feels different.She’s lying against the pillows
