"Terence, please have something to eat,"
"Yes, you ate only a little yesterday, but you haven't eaten anything today. You have been waiting for another day, how can you not eat anything?"
It was dark in the hospital and the ward of Vivian was filled with horrifying darkness. Terence was sitting on the chair beside the bed, with his parents, Vivian's father and other relatives around him. There was sadness on everyone's face. When some people tried to persuade Terence to eat something, he just held Vivian's hands tightly as if he hadn't heard what they said.
Vivian lay on the bed with eyes closed. Her belly flat and peaceful as if she was just asleep. However, it was beyond his expectation that she had slept for five days. Her breath was so faint that he could not see the undulation of her chest. There was no ventilator and heartbeat machine in the ward, but it made people feel more scared. There was no other way to cure her. Whether she could wake up or not, it had to depend on herself...
"Terence, you..."
"I'm not hungry." When his mother was about to say something, Terence opened his mouth. His voice was hoarse and his eyes were bloodshot. Stubble climbed up the corners of his mouth, making him look more desolate. He was totally unprepared for the abrupt episode of her illness. During the past five days, he had done nothing except accompanying her. Sherry sighed.
"Terence," Chester suddenly opened his mouth and said in a somewhat serious tone, "Look at yourself now! Don't forget that you are a husband and a father now! "
His father's words changed Terence's face, and his eyes finally had some reaction. He's a father now. He still remembered that day. The flustered footsteps, his painful cry, and the doctor's serious shout interwove with each other.
The unconscious Vivian was quickly carried to the operating room by the doctors and nurses, and was pushed into the operating room. Three white gown entered the operating room with a serious expression.
When Vivian came out, the twins were already inside the incubators. He hadn't had the time to check on them. Because of his dear Vivian, she was lifeless lying on the operating bed.
"You are supposed to accompany Vivian, but don't forget your baby. If you are sick, who will take care of Vivian when she awakes? Who will take care of your child? !" His father's voice became lower, which pulled Terence back to reality. "Think it over!"
"Well, Terence, I bet Vivian doesn't want to see you like this." Vivian's father tried to comfort him. Replied Terence, devoid of any other emotions.
On the other side, in the new baby department of the hospital, Fiona and Spencer finished their work and studies today. They came to the hospital together and stood in front of the incubator. They were about to check on the twins of Terence and Vivian, two boys.
Terence was looking they were two girls, and Vivian hoped
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
led the day when Vivian had an operation.
On that day, Terence almost slumped out of the door of the operating room, stained with Vivian's blood. Leaning against the wall, he was breathing heavily. During the operation, he had received two critically ill notice. Fiona could do nothing but see Terence's trembling hand holding the pen with bloodshot eyes. The operation had been performed after five hours. When it was finally successful, Terence covered his face with his hands and bent over, sobbing in front of everyone.
"Vivian, please wake up. Please don't torture yourself and Terence any more." Still choking with sobs, Fiona continued, "You gave birth to two cute babies. They are so cute..."
After tidying himself up, Terence talked with Spencer for a while and then walked toward the freshman's department. The closer they got to there, the more uneasy they felt. What would his sons look like?
"Mr. Terence, this way please. These two babies are very healthy now. "
A nurse brought Terence to the two babies' incubators. The two babies, who looked exactly the same, were sleeping soundly.
Terence's heart softened and he was deeply touched. He had not expected that in order to protect the twins in her womb, Vivian had even played a joke on her own life. He felt sorry and angry, but he had a little resentment against the newly born twins. But when he saw them, he realized how wrong he had been.
Terence had been taking care of his two children for a long time. When a nurse came to change diapers and opened the incubator, Terence was shaking and stretching his hand into the incubator. Somehow, the little fellow suddenly swung his arm and began to cry.
Terence held his son's little hand in a hurry and a sort of kinship was growing in his heart. While the little guy suddenly stopped crying, kicked his leg and fell asleep peacefully. Terence was almost moved to tears. Was this the feeling of being a father?
