A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Jacob took Beryl back to her room after he helped her wash up. Just as he was about to open the door, they heard loud noises coming from the other bedroom.

"Bang!" It sounded like a cup, or at least something similarly breakable.

Jacob's eyes widened and he rushed into the room with Beryl in his arms. When he stepped in, he found Emily sitting on the floor without any shoes, trembling with fear.

"What's wrong, Emily?" After he carefully put Beryl to bed, Jacob strode towards Emily immediately. He carefully helped Emily up and guided her away so that she wouldn't step on the broken shards of glass on the floor.

"I, I thought you were gone again..." Emily stammered. When she saw Jacob, her world became whole again. She clutched onto his shirt as if he was the only person left in her world to hold on to. "I thought all of this was just a part of my dream. I was so afraid that everything would disappear if I woke up from sleep."

Anxiety and disquiet filled her eyes as she stammered to explained herself.

"No, honey. I'm here. This is not a dream. I'm going to be here with you forever," Jacob comforted. He pulled her in his arms and patted her on the back. "You've had a lot drinks. You need to get some sleep. I will get into bed with you, okay?"

Jacob's words put her mind at ease. After Jacob laid her down next to Beryl, he laid down on the other side. With Beryl lying in the middle, the three of them fell asleep peacefully.

The next morning when Emily woke up, she fluttered her eyes open to Jacob's handsome face and their daughter's lovely face.

Happiness and warmth filled her heart when she looked at their sleeping faces. If this fancy picture was a part of her dream, she wouldn't mind falling asleep forever.

When Emily moved to get up, she accidentally woke Jacob up from sleep. Without a word, he smiled at her and kissed her good morning. What was so attractive about their romance was that so much of it was unspoken and silent.

After they had breakfast, Emily took Beryl to David and Rita's house, before she and Jacob went to the hospital to see their unborn child.

When Jacob saw the baby in a test tube filled with fluid mediums, the pain shot through his heart like a thousand knives, rendering him speechless.

For a while, Jacob struggled but he couldn't utter any words. Finally, he stammered, "This is... our second baby?"
