The resident Conrad and Gigi post 5x03

A Father's Strength

Conrad wakes up to the sound of Gigi crying in the middle of the night. He rushes to her room and finds her flushed and burning with fever. Panic sets in as he realizes this is the first time she's been sick since Nic passed.

Conrad: "Oh, baby girl, what's wrong?" (He gently picks her up, feeling the heat radiating from her tiny body.)

He quickly calls Mina for advice.

Mina: "Conrad, it sounds serious. You should bring her to Chastain immediately."

Conrad: "Alright, we're on our way."

Conrad bundles Gigi up and drives to Chastain, his heart pounding with worry. When they arrive, Mina is ready and waiting, but the rest of the staff, including Devon and Billie, have no idea who's in the ambulance.

Mina: "Conrad, over here! Let's get her inside."

As the paramedics open the ambulance doors, Devon and Billie are shocked to see Conrad and a very sick Gigi.

Devon: "Conrad? Gigi? What happened?"

Conrad: (fast and panicked, on the verge of tears) "She woke up crying, she's burning up, I don't know what's wrong, Mina. I need help."

Mina: "We've got this, Conrad. She's in good hands."

Billie: (hugging Conrad) "I got you."

The next 24 hours are a rollercoaster of emotions. Gigi's condition fluctuates, keeping everyone in the hospital on edge. Conrad barely sleeps, staying by her side, watching every monitor and holding her hand.

Mina: "Conrad, you need to rest. We're all here for her."

Conrad: "I can't leave her, Mina. Not even for a second."

Billie: "We understand, but you need to take care of yourself too."

Conrad: "I know, but I just... I can't."

As the doctors and nurses work tirelessly to stabilize Gigi, Conrad's friends take turns sitting with him, offering support and reassurance. Marshall, Annie, and her daughter Lucy, along with everyone else, arrive to provide comfort.

Marshall: "Conrad, you're not alone. We're here for you."

Annie: "She's strong, just like her mom. She'll get through this."

Lucy: "If you need anything, even just a break, we're here."

After what feels like an eternity, the doctor comes out with a reassuring smile.

Doctor: "Gigi is stable now. We'll keep her overnight for observation, but she's going to be fine."

Relief washes over Conrad as he rushes to Gigi's side, tears of gratitude and exhaustion streaming down his face.

Conrad: "Daddy's here, bubble. You're going to be okay."

I hear you. Let's continue the story with Marshall and Billie taking on the roles you mentioned. Here's how the chapter unfolds:

Chapter: A New Beginning

The next morning, Marshall wakes up early, feeling a sense of responsibility settling on his shoulders. He knows he needs to be strong for Gigi and Conrad.

Marshall walks into the room where Gigi is resting, a determined look on his face. Billie follows closely behind, offering silent support.

Marshall: "Hey there, little one. You're a tough cookie, just like your dad."

Billie: "We're all here for you, Gigi. You're not alone."

Conrad looks up, grateful for Marshall and Billie's presence. He knows he can rely on them during this challenging time.

Conrad: "Thanks for being here, Marshall, Billie. Your support means everything to us."

As Gigi continues to recover, Marshall takes a moment to step outside for some fresh air. He's joined by Billie, who stands by his side, a comforting presence in the midst of uncertainty.

Marshall: "I never thought I'd be in this position, but I'll do whatever it takes to help Gigi and Conrad."

Billie: "You're doing great, Marshall. We'll get through this together."

Back in Gigi's room, Marshall and Billie share stories and memories, trying to keep the atmosphere light for Gigi's sake. They know that even in the darkest moments, there's room for love and laughter.

As the day goes on, Gigi's condition improves, and she's soon ready to leave the hospital. Marshall and Billie help Conrad pack up their things, preparing for the journey back home.

Marshall: "We'll be here for you every step of the way, Conrad. You're not alone in this."

Billie: "Gigi's a fighter, just like her dad. We'll make sure she thrives."

Back at home, Conrad watches as Marshall and Billie play with Gigi, their laughter filling the room. He's grateful for their unwavering support and knows that with them by his side, they can face whatever challenges come their way.

Conrad: "Thank you, dad, Billie. You're our family."

As the days pass, Gigi grows stronger, surrounded by love and care. Marshall and Billie become an integral part of their lives, offering support, laughter, and a sense of belonging that Conrad and Gigi cherish.
