Part 3:

Five months pregnant, I got called back to the hospital for an emergency C- section on New Year's Eve

Halfway through the surgery, I heard a man's desperate voice from the door

"Sar! Don't be scared. I'm here! After you have the baby, I'll marry you, okay?"

The familiar voice made me freeze for a bit.

As soon as the surgery was done, the guy rushed in to hold

Sarah Mitchell with red-rimmed eyes.

Seeing his face, I recognized who he was-

my husband of five years, Antonio Kaufman.

I stared at him, stunned.

After a moment, I rasped out, "Congrats. It's a 2.86-kilo baby boy."

Antonio didn't even glance at the baby, let alone notice me.

"Sweetie, thank you for giving me a son. You're my one and only. Sar, I love you."

He trembled with excitement as he pecked Sarah's forehead.

It was so sincere and beautiful.

Exactly like the scene I had dreamed of when I imagined giving birth.

Except, I wasn't the one in the spotlight.
