Where’s my baby?
Aiden rush down the hallways, alongside his mother and he stopped immediately he saw Blossom. She was standing at a hallway and walking to and fro.
“What happened… Where’s Tihana?”
Blossom had breathed down immediately she saw Aiden running towards her, it was not until Aiden asked that question that she noticed his mother standing right next to him, with worry written all over her face.
“The doctors took her in already.”
“What happened?”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Aiden was trying not to let people see the panic in his face and the fact that he was mad at Blossom.
“Did you do this to her?!”
“Aiden! That’s enough.” His mother interrupted, pushing him aside as Blossom stared at Aiden unbelievably.
“It’s fine ma.” She muttered and then turn to Aiden .
“She’s my sister. I wouldn’t hurt her, she’s just due…”
“Whatever!” Aiden said and walk to sit down, tapping his feet on the floor… He was running out of patience.
He wondered how Tihana is feeling and if she needed him to on her side. It was unbelievable how today was the day he had talked about the surprise he had for her whenever she puts to bed… And she’s going to do just that!
Aiden wouldn’t blame himself for asking Blossom such a dumb question. If there’s anything Aiden knows her for, it’s being mischievous.
“Where’s Tihana..?.” Aiden looked up to see Diana and Wayne. He looks at Blossom with a question in his eyes.
“You called them?”
“Tihana told me to call Diana.” Blossom replied and looks away.
There was silence, as everyone sits and awaits the doctor to come out of the ward. Everyone was clearly feeling anxious… The labour room had always been the scariest.
Soon after, a Nurse rush out of the ward and before Aiden could stop her and ask about Tihana, she already run past. Rushing back later with a pack of blood on her hands.
Everyone sits still.
Twenty minutes later and a doctor walked out of the Ward, but was stopped by Aiden and the rest of people present.
“Doctor, how’s she? And the baby!?”
“Mr Aiden Turner?” The doctor called, as if trying to confirm something. And when Aiden nodded he sighed.
“The baby is safe and sound. It’s a boy.”
Everyone breathed down and the worry and sad expression of there’s soon turn to smiles. But not Aiden’s face yet.
“And Tihana? How’s she… can I see her?”
“Not yet… You’ll be able to see her in the couple of hours, but I’m sorry you’ll have to see her with her eyes shut.”
“What do you mean?!” Diana questioned immediately, standing up.
“She lost a lot of blood and it’s a miracle she survived, guess she wasn’t expecting to be this early. Because of lost of blood, she slipped into coma. But I assure you, she’ll be fine.”
When no one said anything immediately, the doctor continued.
“You’ll be able to see the mother and the baby after a hour. Excuse me.” And with this, he walk away, leaving the family to think about his words.
“Will she be okay?” Blossom asked.
“Why? Do you want her died!, She’s in that condition just because of you and who knows if you’re the reason she came in earlier than expected.” Diana yelled
‘i didn’t do anything. I was with her when she started complaining of abdomen pain!”
“Why didn’t you take her to the hospital immediately?”
“How should I know she’s due?! She told she was fine… Until I noticed her water had broken.”
Diana didn’t say another word, and instead turns her back and start walking away.
“I’ll go talk to her.” Wayne announced and walks away too.
Aiden didn’t say anything and so, his mother who was still there approaches him and sit next to him.
“You don’t have to worry son, She’ll be fine. You once told me she’s a fighter^_^, I’m sure she’ll fight her way out of this.”
Ms Turner consoled.
Blossom stood and watched them, she had no idea what next to do. She was worried too, bit it seems everyone hated her and will keep blaming her for what had happened.
Was it her fault?! She was the one that brought her to the hospital afterall.
“Diana, Wait up.” Wayne said and grab her hands, stopping her and making her look at him.
“You shouldn’t have say all that . It was harsh…. I don’t think Tihana is going to be happy for the way you talked to her sister.”
“Excuse me?! Are you trying to say Tihana will chose her over me?”
“C’mon sweetheart. I didn’t say that, but you shouldn’t accuse her of something as strong as that.”
“Why wouldn’t I? Tihana is in that condition because she went to visit the so called family of hers.”
“She was due! Anything could happen.”
“No she’s not! She was supposed to be due in another week. I bet she felt pressured and so does the baby. ”
“Yet, it’s not Blossoms fault. She’s actually the one that called Aiden and you, as well brought her in to the hospital on time. She really did what everyone else will do.”
“You never support me in anything.” Diana hiss and turn, slapping his hand off her hand and walking away.
“You get angry easily and it makes me afraid of you. But that won’t stop me from telling you what’s wrong and what’s right.”
“Are you saying I have anger issue?” This time, Diana was really angry and annoyed.
“Yes…. Otherwise, why are you so mad right now? I’m trying to make you understand things and you’re mad at me like I really did something.”
“You did something.. by supporting her!”
“I never supported her. But whatever you say, let’s sort this out after…. We are in the hospital and shouldn’t make ourselves the main character. I need to go talk to Aiden.”
Without waiting for her response, Wayne turned and start walking back inside the hospital. Leaving Diana standing there to think about what she had just did.

Aiden sat and watch Tihana, whose eyes were still closed. He had just put the baby back into his chart because he was asleep.
It felt amazing when he held him in his hand, Ofcourse be had teared up imagining that he is now a father. But his happiness wasn’t that much fulfilled as it would’ve been, because the mother of his baby is lying down on the hospital bed… Unconscious, and probably fighting for her life.
He took her hand into his and rested his head on her palm.
“You did it..” he smiled sadly , watching her face.
“Look, our baby is sleeping peacefully and we could’ve watch him together… Hold him in our hands together and be happy together.”
“Earlier today, I was discussing with grandfather about how I wanted to terminate that useless contract and then propose and get married to you legally. Even tho he was against it, I stood my ground. I won’t have to be his toy and do just as he said again… I wanted to be with you.”
“Please… Come back to me, come back to us. Everyone is looking forward to seeing that happy smiley face of yours.”
Aiden sat for another couple of minutes talking to Tihana. And he kind of felt relieved after talking to her, while his mother and others had returned home… Aiden tend to stay in the room with Tihana.
“You all should go. I’ll stay with her till she’s awake.” He had said to them and they left soon after.
Aiden rested his head on the bed, with his hand still holding onto Tihana’s. He wanted to catch some sleep… A nurse had come in minutes ago, and took the baby.. saying she needs to clean him up , again.
When he was about to doze off, he noticed a hand on his head and then a pat. He opened his eyes and raise his head, to see Tihana smiling peacefully at him..
“You’re awake?!” He questioned with doubts.
“Where’s my baby?” Was the only word Tihana had said, as she stares at him.
