When His Eyes Opened

 The baby was in an incubator in the intensive care unit with a dedicated nurse looking after him.

The intensive care unit was a sterile environment.

Under normal circumstances, premature babies were not allowed visitors.

However, Elliot's status was special.

Once he entered the neonatal unit, the nurse disinfected him, helped him into a sterile suit, then led him into the intensive care unit.

"Your son's overall condition is looking pretty good, Mr.Foster.He's just got some respiratory distress...This is normal for premature babies, so you don't need to worry about it too much," explained the nurse.

Elliot already found out about the baby's condition from the doctor earlier that afternoon, so he was not too worried.He gazed at his son through the incubator.

The baby was wrapped up in a swaddle while an oxygen tube was connected to his nose.

With his eyes closed and without moving a muscle, he looked like he was asleep.

Elliot's eyes instantly filled with tears.
