Ava was sitting up on the bed, but resting. She had a small monitor attached to her, which displayed her heartbeat and that of the baby.One of the doctors entered with a file in his hand.“Good morning,” Ava replied in a low tone.In the room, Marcus was already present. He had arrived early and had not quit since the previous evening. He was standing close by the window and taking notice.The doctor examined the two.
The room remained silent following the breakdown of Marcus. It was the sound of his shrill breathing. As Ava sat on the bed, she took her heart, watching him. She had not seen him in these ways.Marcus wiped his face gradually with his hands, yet the tears streamed in.“I am sorry,” he said again, and it was a low and broken voice.Ava didn't reply.Marcus drew a long breath and endeavoured to calm down. Then he looked at her again.“I will not excuse myself, I will not excuse myself,” he said. "I know what I did."
The silence in the hospital room had been broken. The machines would beep softly, and the lights were faint. Ava was lying in bed with half-open eyes and a pale but calm face. She believed that she had some time to relax.Then the door opened slowly.Ava turned her head.Her heart went still.Marcus walked in.He swung the door behind him softly, as though he did not wish to be heard.Both of them remained silent for a moment.
Marcus was still standing outside the hospital room with a hand still suspended in front of the door handle. The low tones were still present on the inside.Thump... thump... thump...His swallow stopped, and his breath.“That... that is a heartbeat,” he said.The sound echoed again, and tightened his chest, his heart real."No... it can't be..." he grumbled, and shook his head.Daniel moved closer behind him with a dark expression.
The sirens made themselves heard as the ambulance had to run through the streets. Ava was lying on the stretcher, with a pale face on the inside, wet with sweat. She was squeezing her stomach with her hands, and the pain continued to come."It hurts..." she whispered weakly.Lydia was sitting next to her, and she was holding her hand fast.“You will be fine, Ava,” Lydia said, shaking. "We're almost there. Just hold on."Ava shook her head slightly."It's too much..." she cried softly.
It was late in the afternoon, and the house of Daniel was silent. Curtains were partly shut, and there was soft light in the living room. Ava was sitting on the couch with a cup of tea, yet she was not drinking it. She had tired eyes and a pale face.Her hand was touching her stomach.“Please, please, stay,” she thought to herself.The door suddenly made a soft knock.Ava frowned.Daniel had walked away, and Riley was not anticipated."Who is it?" Ava called.
Elena waited till the house was silent.The guests were gone. Patricia was trapped in her room, and Mark and Ava were nowhere to be found. The noises of the engagement party faded, and there was an oppressive silence that pressed on Elena's chest.Within the backyard, Marcus was gazing at the darkn
The engagement dinner was to be jovial.Patricia kept saying this.The tables were arranged in a nice way. Candles were glowing softly. Plates were lined up perfectly. It all was so pleasant and cozy, yet the air was thick, as though no one was willing to breathe.Ava was seated beside Mark, with he
Bella didn’t sleep that night. She sat bent over the small table in the living room, with crossed arms and a vibrating brain. As Mark re-emerged the next morning out of the bedroom, she was already waiting. “We need to talk,” Bella said. Mark stopped. “About what?” “You are quite aware of what
Mark has not been himself over the past few days.He began to bark at even the trifles. He stayed out way too late. And when he reached home, he did not say much. The smile which he had so naturally thrown on now was as unnatural as if it did not belong to him.Bella observed the minutest detail.M
