the strength of a sister

Prue was at the heart of one of the most intense and extraordinary experiences of her life: childbirth.

Prue woke up in the middle of the night, feeling a strange humidity between her legs. For a moment, panic ran through her mind, until she realized that the water had just broken. " Oh no... the time has come," she whispered to herself, her heart racing.

She began to see her bed, the tension growing rapidly. Her sister Paige, who sleeps next to her, awoke to the sound of her voice. Prue, are you all right?" she asked, noticing the excitement.

"The waters... broke. It's happening," she said, her voice trembling but determined. There was no more time.

Within minutes, they were in the hospital, and Prue, now lying on the bed in the delivery room, was trying to keep calm. But the work was intensifying. The contractions became stronger and more frequent, and with each new wave of pain, they were felt more.

Piper entered the room shortly afterwards, his face focused and resolute. She had heard the situation and knew that her older sister needed her. " Here I am, Prue," said Piper softly as she approached the bed. "You don't have to do it alone."

Prue gave her a look of anxiety. "I can't... Piper, I can't push. I can't," he admitted, the fear was obvious.

Piper came immediately, sitting behind her on the bed, almost trying to convey some of his strength. «Breathe with me, sis», she said in a calm but determined tone, as she put her hands on her shoulders. "I will help you."

Prue leaned against her, feeling the warmth and comfort of her presence. " I can't do it alone," Prue repeated, tears running down her face

"You're not alone," Piper said, squeezing her tighter. "I'm here, and we'll do it together. Now, at the next command, push" Prue felt Piper's support as an anchor

The contractions came back, strong and unceasing, and with the help of Piper holding her from behind, Prue bent forward, finding a new strength within herself. " Push, Prue!" Piper encouraged her with a steady voice, almost whispering in her ear. "Each push brings you closer to your baby."

Time seemed to stretch, but Prue, with Piper firmly behind her, never stopped fighting. The physical and emotional support of her sister gave her the push she was looking for, until, with a last powerful push, a small whimper filled the room.

Prue fell on Piper, exhausted but relieved. The baby, wrapped in cloth, was gently carried into Prue's arms. "We did it," Prue said tearfully, looking at her child's face with disbelief and love.

Piper stroked Prue's sweaty hair. "I'll always be here to help you, every step of the way."
