It's been 4 months after I was released from the hospital, I'm now almost 9 months pregnant.
After I came back home from the hospital Stefan didn't leave my side.
But he had to go back home to continue school.
He came back when he could, and we officially became a couple again, but now it was more serious, we had to take care of a baby.
He promised he would be there for me, and yet here I was with a huge belly alone.
We did found out that I was having twins, one boy and one girl, I was super exited about that.
We bought two cradles and a bunch of soft toys for them to play.
We even made one of the rooms a nursery.
It was almost midnight when I had terrible pain in my stomach, I woke up screaming.
I saw my bed in stain, my water broke...
I realized and started panicking even more, screaming loudly, finally my parents heard me and ran upstairs.

"Are you ok!?" Mom frantically asked while running to me.
"M-my water broke"
"Its happening!!"
"We need to call Stefan, he-he promised he will be here with me."
"Don't worry about him, we need to get you to the hospital first"
"Mom.."
She looked at me.
"I'm scared"
"It's going to be ok, dont worry we're here with you"
I started screaming in pain.
"Deep breaths"
"Come on the car is ready, I called the hospital to inform them that we're coming."
"Thanks dad.."
"Is there anything else we need?"
"Mom, take the bag next to the bed"
"Okay."
They carefully put me in the car and we drove to the hospital.

They put me in the wheelchair and got me to my room.
"Mom can you please get me my phone, I need to call Stefan"
"Okay"
She hands me the phone and I call Stefan.
"He's not picking up, he must be sleeping"
"Its ok, we can call him later"
"No mom, he needs to come here now!"
A few minutes later I called stefan again and send him messages but no reply.
A doctor and a nurse comes in my room to check me.
"How are we doing?"
"I'm ok.."
"Remember to take deep breaths, everything will be ok, tell me if you want something for the pain"
"No I can take it."
"You dont have to, but it's your choice, the nurse will check you from time to time"
He walks out of the door.
After an two hours and 35 minutes, I see Stefan arrive with flowers.
"I thought you were never gonna come."
"I'm so sorry, I was sleeping, I came as fast as I could, how are you."
"I'm fine."
He sits next to me and holds my hands.
