Waylenâs voice, Laden with guilt, emerged from the shadows.
âMindy once said I have a strong personality that I struggle with forging deep connections.
Dad, is it my fault that Rena has suffered so?â
Korbynâs eyes, clouded with unshed tears, met Waylenâs gaze.
His voice, raw with emotion, sought to soothe.
âYou and Rena are perfectly matched, destined for one another.
Donât let doubts plague your heart.
â
Waylenâs throat tightened.
His gaze never left Renaâs slumbering form as he smoothed away a strand of hair on her forehead.
They just fell in Love with each other.
How could she abandon him? How long was she going to sleep?
The passage of each second felt like an eternity, a relentless punishment for a heart caught in turmoil.
In the quiet moments as every minute ticked away, with the world outside wrapped in a blanket of snow, he couldnât help but feel the weight of time pressing upon him.
He stood on the precipice of his endurance, teetering on the edge of his emotional resolve.
At this time, no one could help him, including his parents, Cecilia, and even Mark.
The weight of his role as Renaâs husband and father to their children loomed heavy, his heart yearning for a reunion that seemed to elude his grasp.
Time unfurled its relentless march, three days slipping through Waylenâs grasp Like grains of sand in an hourglass.
Grief etched his features, his once-vibrant cheeks now hollowed by the weight of concern.
There was no concealing the toll Renaâs accident had taken on him.
Keeping the truth from their children was an impossible task.
Cecilia took on the solemn duty of explaining their motherâs situation to them, guiding them through the somber halls of the hospital to Renaâs bedside.
The door creaked open, revealing Renaâs still form lying on the bed.
Alexis, her eyes brimming with unshed tears, held her emotions in check as she rushed to her motherâs side.
She nestled her head against Renaâs belly, the gesture both gentle and heartbreaking, a silent embrace that spanned the chasm between them.

He was afraid that when Rena woke up one day, she would be devastated to find out that their baby was gone.
