217 The Decision

(Winona)

Every time I've been at this hospital it's been in fear of the life of someone I love dearly. Abby, Jayden, Mom.

Now, I'm walking back into that same uncertainty, but this time it's about a life that hasn't even begun yet. I see Jayden ahead, his tall frame standing rigid, his eyes focused on the floor. He looks like a man ready for battle, and in a way, he is, "Jayden," I call out as I approach. His head snaps up, and the tension in his face softens just a bit when he sees me.

"Winona," he replies, his voice thick with emotions he's trying to keep in check. He pulls me into a quick hug, his arms strong and protective around me. "Thanks for coming."

"Of course," I say, leaning into him for just a moment, taking some of his strength for myself, "What's the situation?"

"They're prepping Ashlyn for the emergency c-section," he explains, his voice steady but laced with worry.

I nod, trying to absorb the gravity of the situation. "Do they know if the baby will be okay?"

He shakes his head. "They don't know anything yet. The doctor said we have some time to decide if we want to be in the room during the delivery."

Jayden's words hang in the air, and I feel a wave of uncertainty wash over me. Being in the room during the delivery... I don't know if that's where I should be. I mean, Ashlyn and I were anything but close.

Is it right to be there when I know once the baby is out, they'll be making an awful decision?

Is it my place?
