Pradeep’s mind was spinning with questions. What had made Lily so sick, so suddenly? Could the doctors save her with this urgent operation? And would Lily be able to fully recover, to be there for their new twins? The idea of her not making it was too painful to consider.
It felt like only yesterday when they were filled with joy and relief. Just three weeks ago, Lily had given birth to their beautiful twins. The delivery was tough and exhausting, but as soon as Lily held Mia and Elijah, their lovely babies, she told Pradeep it was all worth it.
As Pradeep paced the hospital corridor, waiting anxiously for news from the operating room, he replayed that precious memory in his mind. They couldn’t possibly convince him that those precious moments of bliss as a united family were destined to be so fleeting. His fists clenched in frustration and despair. This wasn’t fair! Life owed them more than this mere glimpse of happiness!
