They can mean two things. Either they as Gabby and my newborn child, or they as a set of doctors. Even though April smiled to me I shouldn't celebrate in advance because I really don't want to get disappointed.

April takes the lead and I follow her, walking by emergency rooms and patients. We go by the room where the doctors have their offices, I can see Dr. Rhodes sitting in front of his desk, he glares at me as if I had killed someone.

We reach an elevator and we go up. That must have been where they took her, we better be going to the "baby" floor and not to some sort of floor for seriously injured or sick people that need a hundred percent supervision.

We walk through a corridor and reach a room, number three. April knock on the door and open it briefly after. When I see Gabby laying in there and that her eyes are open I shine up like a Christmas tree.

I rush into the room and see that she's not alone. She's holding something in a bright blue blanket. And I know for sure that something is my newborn child.

"You're okay" I say released.

"The both of us are okay" she say, looking down at the baby.

"All three of us are okay" I say

"Yeah" she reply without looking at me.

"Gab, listen. I don't know where to begin. I've got so many things to apologize for. But I can tell you I know you are the greatest thing that has happened to me. And I have made very bad choices in my life. I was so stupid and I can't lose you because without you, I can't survive. You are my spine and without you I'm paralysed. All I need is a legit second chance. I know I hurt you and words can't take that pain away..." I say and take a breath, she look up at me "but maybe I can." I continue.

She think for awhile, and the longer it goes the more scared I get. But she smiles and look down at the baby again.

"Zoë, this is your father" she say and hold her in my direction.

I'll take that answer as a yes.

I walk closer and grab our baby. I hold her steady and close to my chest. I have to say, we've done a great job, she's beautiful and I can tell already that she's going to be smart, vise and thoughtful. So many things can be said about her but I can put it all together and say that she's perfect.

"Zoë, I like that name" I say and look at Gabby.

"Yeah, it means life" she reply.

Zoë Dawson Casey. Yeah, that's something good.

For a long time I was unsure about the baby thing. I felt like Gabby and I wasn't ready, I also felt like it was a bit too soon to have a child but when I'm standing here, holding my child in my arms, I know this was the best decision of my life.
