Tally woke alone in a hospital bed. Confused and disoriented, she looked around the hospital room. Then it all came back to her, the events leading up to her fainting spell. “Oh, my god. Please god, please don’t let it be a miscarriage.” The life inside her had been the one thing she could hold on to right now.
As she lay there, the weight of the situation settled heavily on her shoulders. The thought of Ryan not remembering their love, their life together, and now their unborn child was almost unbearable. She felt a mix of fear, sadness, and hopelessness wash over her.
Suddenly, the door to her room opened, and Doctor Monroe walked in. His calm brought a small sense of relief to Tally. He greeted her with a warm smile and sat down.
“How are you feeling, Mrs. Hawkins?” he asked.
