Peter and Mary stayed at the hospital that night. Exhaustion eventually overtook her, and she would drift off to sleep, only to wake up minutes later crying again. Peter was deeply worried; he didn’t want his beloved to spiral into the same despair she’d faced two months ago.

“Please, my love, you need to rest. They can’t give you sedatives because of the baby,” Peter pleaded softly.

Mary sobbed and tried to calm herself, but the events of the day would flood her mind again, and fresh tears would fall.

“Amor… please, try to stay calm. Think about the baby.”

By morning, Philip visited the couple and cleared Mary to leave the hospital, but only under strict instructions: no exertion and minimal walking. The baby was holding on, but she needed to do her to protect the pregnancy.

“How is Mary?” Maximus asked, his tone calm but genuine.

“She’s stable, but we have to be very careful. No exertion at all. The baby is still at risk.”
