A Frary Tale

Anne

Months passed and Mary is 8 months pregnant. Francis planned a picnic for the two of them since it’s the beginning of June. They’re gonna wait for the fireflies to come. “Francis. Look.” Francis followed Mary’s finger and saw that the fireflies arrived. “Are you happy my Shrimp?” “Very much.” Then suddenly Mary felt pain. “Ouch.” “Is the baby kicking?” Mary ran her hands in her thigh and said. “No. Francy, my water broke. but it’s too early. Arrrrgh. The pain is starting Francy!!!” “Can you still walk?” “Yes.” “Let’s go!” Mary and Francis struggles and finally reached the castle. “Bring the midwives to our chambers. The queen is in labor!” Francis ordered them.

“Francis. it hurts so much. So much than before.” Francis then looked at Mary’s legs while helping her undress, there he saw blood. He felt scared but all he could do is console her. “We’re gonna get through this. We’ve been through a lot to give up now. Don’t give up Mary.” The midwives enter and the midwife Agnes started instructing Mary to push. Agnes tried to stay calm but she can see a lot of blood until she said. “My queen at the next wave of pain push as hard as you can! I can already see the head.” So did Mary.. And after what seems like forever Agnes said. “Congratulations Your Highnesses. You have a beautiful Baby Girl. Blonde hair, Brown eyes, 10 fingers, 10 toes.” She then gave the baby to the physicians. “She’s healthy.” The physician said then Francis took the baby and saw an exact replica of his wife. Except for the hair but totally Mary. “Hello Anne.” Francis said. “I like that name. Anne.” Mary said and then Francis handed the baby to Mary. She smiled and fed Anne then suddenly she felt light headed. Agnes saw this and grabbed the baby before Mary fainted. “Mary? Mary! Wake up!!! Please Love! Wake up.” Francis said sobbing. He said it so loud that their friends that are waiting outside the room heard and rushed inside. “Mary wake up!!! Please. Don’t leave me! I can’t raise 2 children without you. Please.”
