"Lucius..." said Laura, walking into the room.
"Laura..." Lucius said, and as soon as he saw her, he threw himself into her arms.
"Brother... Everything's going to be okay."
"I... I shouldn't have argued with her father. | should've taken her home, I..."
"No, Lucius, you need to stay calm. She's going to be okay. The baby's going to
be okay. Just think-she's going to be a beautiful girl. We finally know... it's a girl," said Laura, trying to bring a
little light into the darkness.
"What if something happens to Amanda? What am | supposed to do? Tell me, what do | do?" Lucius asked
through tears.
"Brother, you have to be strong. Remember, between the two of us, you've always been the strong one. You
can't fall apart now."
"Right now, we have to stay positive. We have to pray for Amanda and your baby girl. If something bad happens,
we'll deal with it when the tcomes. But remember this—never, never, Lucius Evans, will you be alone," said
Laura, hugging him tightly.
The two siblings had always been close. Past mistakes had distanced them, but now more than ever, they knew
they had to be united.

incubator-but she was doing well. Lucius could see her at any moment; he just needed to put on the proper gear.
As for the mother, things weren't so good. The news wasn't encouraging. They were trying to stabilize her with IV

were starting to fail.
The message was clear-they needed to prepare for the worst. Whatever hope remained was quickly slipping
away.
Lucius couldn't believe how everything had changed in the blink of an eye.
Just that morning, he'd woken up watching her sleep. Pregnancy had made her extra sleepy, and he loved that.
He loved how she stretched like a cat and shifted around-even with that massive belly, she always found a way
to get comfortable.
Now, he was about to meet his daughter. The woman he loved more than anything... might not make it. Life was
stealing someone from him again someone he loved with all his heart, maybe even more than anyone he'd ever
loved.
There was no holding back the tears. No way not to feel broken, devastated. He
was about to be alone again...
"Son..." said Maximus, approaching the young man, who had his forehead pressed against the wall, crying in
silence.
"What is it, Dad?" Lucius asked, standing up and trying to look strong.
"Chere..." said Maximus, opening his arms for a hug.
Maximus knew this loss would destroy his son. He knew how much Amanda meant to him.
He could see his son was barely holding it together-pretending to be strong. And for a moment, he saw himself...
back when he was young and had just lost his own brother.

"No. Please don't say it."
"Lucius..."
