"Congratulations, Jaime... and I'm sorry Tara is not here to celebrate with you," she sincerely said, taking a look down on her belly.
"But how did you?" Jaime is confused.
"I'm sorry. It wasn't meant to see that test kit result; it was left in the bathroom. When I used the toilet, I saw it, and I stopped myself for reasons it's not my position to tell. I wanted you to find it personally. I don't want to spoil the fun," Yansen explained.
"It doesn't matter, Yansen; I felt bittersweet in this situation. I tried to gather my thoughts about this process of the trimester of pregnancy," she said, looking at Tara laying on her hospital bed peacefully sleeping.
"I'll help you," Yansen offered, holding her arm for a sincere gesture.
"I can move in to your house if you need someone to accompany you while you're going through all of this," Yansen offered.
"I'll think of it, and thank you; it helps ease my anxiety and weary all the time. I just can't imagine life without her. I only looked at sleeping, but I can't talk like normal people do."
"Any sign of improvements? What does the doctor's say?" Yansen gives her a sandwich and a salad in a bowl.
"Here nowadays, less machines, and her vitals are stable except they can't remove the tube on her mouth to feed; also, her body is healing except her brain is still in CO," she paused and held herself.
"Shh.. shh.. it's okay, you don't need to mention..." she hugged gently, comforting her Yansen. She saw how hard it was for Jaime to witness her world almost flipping upside down.

"Hey.. Jaime... oh, sweet Jaime..." a gentle woman's voice calling her name.
"Uh...hm..?Before she looked at the person on the door, the book she was already falling from her lap. She noticed someone in a business suit pick it up in front, placing it back in her lap, and she's aware there's another woman standing near the door trying to recognize familiar figures. Jaime is always dragging her head to sleep, taking time to gain herself back.
"Oh my—"" Jaime jumps with joy, hugging.
"Yes.. yes, it's me, Oliv," she said, hugging tight on Jaime, placing her hand on her neck, squeezing gently.
"It's okay...Jaime... it's okay." comforting words coming from Olivine that is still hugging her.
Seeing Orianna walk closer to them, she took her hand and squeezed lightly. After that, Orianna walked closer to Tara's bed, stroking her hair and staring.
"Wake up, cousin. Fergusons don't surrender without a fight." She bends gently, whispers in Tara's ear, kisses her forehead deeply, and continues stroking her hair.
"Jaime, I want to see her closer," Olivine said.
"Okay," she replied.
Releasing Jaime walking closer to Tara's bed, Jaime follows behind. Watching Olivine hug Tara right away, still laying in her hospital bed.
"Hey, my best friend.. wake up. We have a lot to talk about. I'm sorry if we took so long to visit you here. We have something we need to take care of. It's related to the freak accident. If you won't wake up, I'll make your wife Jaime get pregnant." Olivine grinned, looking at Jaime beside her, innocently looking at them but confused.
"Olive, I'm sorry if I get emotional from time to time or am moody," Jaime said, placing her hand on her belly.
"Oh..." Olivine said, shocked, looking directly at her, stunned.
"No way! Are you kidding?" she almost whispered in awe, planting a kiss on Jaime's head.
"Congratulations, dear Jaime," Orianna said, slowly stepping closer and hugging Jaime gently.
"Is it her's that you're carrying?" Olivine asked excitedly, being her out of character.
"Yes," Jaime said, looking at her.
"I ask her to carry her baby; at first she was hesitant if I wanted a child, and I said, Of course, I always do love kids, and I wanted as many as I can." Jaime gave a simple nod, replying, Seeing their delightful faces looking to Tara, whose younger a few years than them, lying on the hospital bed, Jaime sees her cousins gathered and being proud of her, sensing them giving these energies for the best.
"Are you going to create a football team!?" Olivine teases Jaime, slowly covering her mouth while Orianna smiles at her.
"Jaime, if you need anything, you have our contacts, right, Jaime?" Orianna said.
"Yes, that's right, Jaime anytime just gave us a call. Tara is our family, almost like a sister to us. We do care for each other and also were close too," Olivine said, wearing a smile on her face.
"Honestly, I'm so happy and glad you visited us," Jaime said, placing her right hand on her belly.
"Hey there, baby... just hang in there okay... we are all excited to see you, especially your gorgeous mother," Olivine being a childish leaning towards Jaime's belly talking.
"Jaime... sweetie, I'm sorry if I cut this moment, but here's a check. Have anything you need for you and the baby. Take it as an early gift from us," she smiled, giving the sign piece of paper." Orianna said, lowering her guards to Jamie.
Jaime knows these women had this mask and persona they carried outside. When they gather in private places like these, they automatically take it off, especially when there's no media around; they are themselves as normal human beings.
"Jaime, you don't have to pay the hospital bills. We will take care of you as a member of our family. Jaime, you belong to Fergusons now. Family always has their backs, especially now you got another little Ferguson in there," Orianna added, and a gentle knock followed by slowly opening on the door caught their attention.
"I'm so sorry, Madame, the doctor has arrived at his office," a man in a suit appeared and informed them.
"Yes, and thank you; we will be there," Orianna immediately replied.
"Jaime, don't worry, and we're here always okay. Bye for now. We need to see the doctor first and discuss a few things. We will take care of you and Tara. We will come back and visit again soon." Olivine hugged Jaime again while Orianna had her hand squeezed gently. Jaime hugged her lightly.
"Please take care of yourself and the baby Jaime," Orianna said in a soft voice, looking back and forth on her belly.
* * *
Jaime watched the Ferguson's turn their backs with their personal guards walking away till the door closed. Silence presence is almost deafening to Jaime; she doesn't want them to leave that quick. Trying to handle the situation and this mess she's facing her life.
"Hey babe, did you hear them? They're here, baby. I wish you wake up seeing them, your cousins. My god, their presence makes my heart melt. They're so beautiful and also charming." She can't help but squeeze Tara's arms enough to respond with one of her fingers that is attached to a tiny monitor machine.
"Oh my god!! You moved your hand! Can you hear me, babe? Jamie's in shock, staring at her hand, hoping it'll move again.
"What did Olivine say to you? I saw her; she grinned at me! She's so cheeky." Jaime was smiling in tears at the moment.
"But please! I want to see that again...please!" standing on her bedside begged, waiting, wiping her tears that kept falling on her cheeks, results of tears of joy for months of no response from Tara.
She hugged her, kissing her head, having tears keep falling from her eyes, and she silently hugged, sobbing.
