Although Doris had always been a strong woman, this time, the seething pain had seemed to evaporate all the fierceness in her. Her body felt like it was being torn apart, it was just unbearable.
"Just a little more! We'll be in the operating room soon. You'd better endure the pain; otherwise, you'll have a C-section," Nancy comforted, hoping that her friend could endure much longer.
With a distressed look, Doris eyed her and asked, "Will you go with me?"
"You don't need me there. Jay will be with you." A reassuring smile crept on Nancy's lips as she caressed Doris' hair.
"What?! But I don't want him to be there." Obviously, Doris felt utterly embarrassed to give birth while a man watched her.
She had seen videos of birthing women, and they were really awkward and perplexing.
"You'll be more relieved to have him by your side. Don't worry."
As soon as Nancy finished her words, the car halted to a stop, signaling that they had finally arrived at the hospital.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Although Jay agreed, deep down, he was slightly worried and scared. He didn't know if he could bear to see Doris wincing in so much pain.
However, as the father of their yet-to-be-born child, he should overcome his anxiety and accompany his wife in the delivery room.
"Alright. Let's go." Doris nodded and struggled to get out of the car.
With utmost urgency, the nurses pushed her through the corridor and into the delivery room while she clung on her swollen belly.
Then immediately, Jay changed into the required sterile protective suit and walked in with gloves.
At the same time, Nancy waited outside, pacing back and forth.
Although the operating room was quite soundproof, she could still faintly hear Doris's painful cry.
And as she listened to her friend wail in pain, Nancy couldn't help reminisce the time she gave birth to Bobby and Nadia.
