Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 373

“Try to stay in as much as possible,” my dad warned us.

I nodded, my hand instinctively rubbing my belly, filled with unease as if someone were coming to snatch my babies away.

“Alright, they’re probably just passing by. I’ll stay in for a few days.” I responded.

Despite my words, everyone looked grave. Some emotional entanglements that should have ended long before just never seemed to go away from our lives.

Despite my reluctance to go out, I had to keep up with my prenatal appointments. The doctor warned that twins were prone to premature birth, requiring stricter conditions during delivery and weekly check-ups in the latter part of pregnancy, ideally twice a week.

That was about the health of me and my babies. I had to step out.

Dad had the car ready, and we set off for the hospital.

Upon reaching, I felt a bit hungry, but some tests required fasting, so I asked my dad to grab some food for me, while my mom helped with the payment and paperwork.
