Chapter 135: I’m Okay
Chapter 135: I’m Okay
Helping Sarah to walk into the procedure room, the doctor continued shouting and swearing at the
farmworkers for neglecting a pregnant woman and not informing anyone of the fact that she was
pregnant.
All Sarah could hear was the chaotic sound of people rushing around her, shouting, and trying to help
her as she gradually lost consciousness. She shuddered in pain as the blurred vision turned black.
Subconsciously, she still felt something tugging at her stomach, and all she could think of was her
unborn child. "My baby… baby… baby…"
She cried out for help, but no one seemed to hear her. Trying to hold onto something, the only thing
she could find was a nurse’s hand who was trying to console her and placing an IV into her arm.
Several doctors were gathered around her, checking her and trying to save her baby. Despite all their
efforts, she kept feeling the pain, as if something was falling out of her body.
She wanted to shout, struggle, and protect her baby in her womb, but she couldn’t do anything. The
sense of loss was deepening. She didn’t know what she would do if she lost her baby. What would she
do? If their baby was gone. What would Charles do?
She couldn't think about it, she didn't want to lose her baby, “Charles, if we lose our baby… What will
we do?” Sarah murmured intangibly.
They were so happy and looked forward to the baby’s arrival…the whole Thomas family was waiting for
the baby… what if she lost it?
What should she do?
If she lost the baby… What should she do?
If she lost the baby… What should she do?
Sarah finally fainted in pain and sadness, with the thought of losing her baby replaying in her mind
endlessly.
Sarah had a long dream where she was with her baby, her parents, and her little sister. They were all
together at an amusement park, playing games and having so much fun all together, and having a
wonderful time together. She was happy and didn't know about sadness or pain because her parents
were there to protect them from all harm.
She didn't need to work hard or feel sad… but then… a car accident ended all that happiness. She had
to take over, take care of her little sister, suffer through life's unfair dealing with her. She vowed that if
she had a child, she wouldn't let the child suffer, no matter what kind of family she would be in. She
would not let her child follow the same path... she wanted her child to be born and to have a happy life.
But where was her baby?
She couldn't see it clearly. She heard him cry out to her, calling her, “Mom, Mom…" but she couldn’t
find him.
There was a thick fog, and she couldn't distinguish the people. She lost her way… She still heard her
child, he was bullied by someone and cried out in pain… she heard the sound of a car stopping, then
her child’s flustered scream, “Mom… Mom… ” Her child seemed to be standing in the middle of the
road, pleading for help. But she still couldn’t find him no matter where she went and how much she
searched. She couldn't see him, only heard him cry and scream. “Mom… Mom…”
Sarah shouted in panic, “Baby… baby…
But no matter how much she tried to scream or shout, she could barely make a sound.
She felt two hands holding her hands tightly.
The hands were warm, and there was a crying voice calling her name. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Sarah… Sarah… wake up, Sarah…"
It still felt like a dream, but Sarah knew it was Charles’s voice.
Charles was her beloved husband and father of her child. Why was he crying and calling her name? He
was holding her hands tightly as if he was afraid of losing her.
Sarah slowly opened her eyes and saw the white walls and white sheets. There was a faint smell of
disinfectant in the air. Was she in a hospital?
“Sarah, you woke up!” She heard his excited voice close to her ear. It was Charles’s voice. She could
understand him clearly.
She slowly turned around and saw Charles sitting beside her bed, holding her hand tightly. He looked
pale, his beard had grown on his chin, and his eyes were red as if he hadn’t had a rest for a long time,
or had he been crying?
“Charles……Why are you here?” She asked in surprise.
Charles seemed to cry with joy as he answered, “Everything is okay now, you wake up. I am okay as
long as you’re fine!”
Sarah wanted to laugh at him but only managed a slight smile. She asked with worry, “Are you okay?
Your back…”
Charles kissed her hand and whispered, “I’m all right. I just took some medicine. Don’t worry, but
you…”
Sarah suddenly remembered… she reached for her abdomen, which still felt a little painful. There was
an IV attached to the back of her hand, with fluid dripping.
Suddenly, she started to wonder why she was in the hospital, lying in bed with an IV. Did something
happen to her when she fell off her horse? Sarah looked at Charles and asked in bewilderment.
“Charles, what about my baby?
"Is something wrong with my baby?
"Why am I lying in this bed?
"How about my baby?”
Seeing her nervous face, the faint smile on his face disappeared. He looked at her silently with
complex emotion in his eyes. It seemed that the calm lake was stirred with waves caused by a
hurricane, and the peace that had just been there having gone, blurring the vision of the horizon. He
suddenly lowered his head.
Seeing his reaction, Sarah was even more worried. She grabbed Charles’s shoulder in a hurry and
nervously asked.
“Charles, Charles, tell me! What’s wrong with our baby? Is…. Is the baby okay?”
After a long time, Charles finally raised his head but looked away from her. He dared not to look into
her eyes as he answered in a low voice, “Sarah…” his voice was stuck, he couldn't continue.
Sarah looked at him, shaking his hands to wake him up from a trance, and shouted, “Tell me!”
