Chapter 1003

Ludwik paced the sterile, cold hallways with heavy steps, his voice a mix of despair and urgency, "How's my baby doing? Doctor?"

The moment was grave. The baby, wrapped in a sterile cloth, lay motionless. Despite the doctor's attempts, she made no sound, an eerie silence enveloping the room. She was a tiny thing, just as Sammy had guessed, small enough to fit in Ludwik's palm.
