Staying Overnight

Lilly felt a surge of relief wash over her when a nurse finally entered the room, breaking the oppressive silence that had enveloped her. However, that relief quickly dissipated as the nurse’s expression dashed her hopes of being discharged soon. It was then that Lilly learned she would need to stay overnight for observation. Immediately, her thoughts turned to Pradeep and their twins. The prospect of being apart from them, even for just one night, filled her with apprehension and unease.

With a shaky hand, she dialed Pradeep’s number to convey the unexpected news. He was initially hesitant but assured her he could handle everything at home. Despite his brave words, she could hear the worry tinged in his voice, a stark reminder of the uncertainty they faced. In that moment, the distance between them felt vast, and she longed for his comforting presence to ease her fears.
