Chapter 65
Chapter 65
Anna POV.
I gasped and stood up from the couch and ran upstairs ignoring everyone's calls.
My priority is my baby girl. I can hear the thundering of my heartbeat in my chest.
I pushed open the door and heard the cries of Mia. I ran toward her and picked her up in my arms.
Her nose was again running and this time the discharge was thicker and opaque instead of watery.
I wiped it with the soft towel and moved toward the door. I saw Rose on the door with Jane.
The later came inside and stood beside me and handed me Mia's blanket and said "I'll take care of
Matthew. You go."
I nodded and covered Mia with it and walked downstairs with Rose.
I saw Mr Williams on the phone. He was talking to someone.
"Yeah, we are just coming...... don't leave the hospital ....... Ok bye." He said on the phone.
He saw me and said "Come. I have called Avril. She is in the hospital right now."
I nodded and walked outside with a crying Mia who was sneezing. I touched her forehead and it was
warm.
I sat in the car in my nightwear. I don't care about my clothes right now. All I wanted was my baby to be
ok.
Mr Williams and Rose sat in the front and the former drove the car. I am glad that they are here with me
right now.
I looked down at me who was still crying in my arms while clutching my breasts and yelling 'ma'
I wiped her nose again and kissed her head. I patted gently on her back to calm her down but she
again sneezed.
Rose turned her head and asked me with a worried face "Is she having a fever?"
I checked Mia's head again and it was not that hot but a little warm.
Then I looked at Rose and said: "She is a little warm so maybe she has a fever."
She nodded and before she could ask any other question, Mr Williams stopped the car.
I looked outside and saw that we have reached the hospital. I got out of the car and covered Mia with
her baby blanket.
It was cold outside and I was shivering. I walked inside with Rose as Mr Williams was parking his car.
We reached the reception and saw Avril who was looking at the direction of the door.
She saw us and walked toward us and said: "What happened to her, Anna?"
"You both go. I would fill the form quickly." Rose said and I nodded.
"She is not breathing properly and has a running nose. She is getting irritated easily." I said to Avril
while talking toward her a private word.
She nodded and opened the door. I gave her Mia and she laid her down in the bed.
I stood beside her when she was checking Mia who was now screaming.
I was so close to crying. I had never thought that my baby would get sick.
Oh, God. I shouldn't have fed her that ice cream. This is all happening because of my recklessness.
Avril checked her for some minutes then turned to me and said "she has a cold and mild fever. I am
going to keep her here for the night."
I nodded and this time tears fell from my eyes. She hugged me and said "she is alright Anna. It's a
normal thing"
I nodded my head and said, "She wasn't drinking my milk earlier and was biting me."
She gave me a smile and said "Biting is normal, Anna. Actually, she was irritated as her nose was
congested and about lack of appetite, it's because of cold. Everything is alright."
"Ok. Thank you, Avril." I told her with a teary smile.
"No need to thank me, Anna. You are my sister in law and we are family." She said with a small smile.
The door opened and Rose came inside and said, "What happened?"
"Nothing Rose. She just has a cold and mild fever. I am going to keep her here for the night to give her Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
some fluids." She told this to Rose, who was listening to her very keenly.
"I can stay here with her, right," I asked her.
"You can, Anna. I will tell someone to arrange a cot for you so that you can sleep.
I shook my head and said " I won't sleep. I would stay with her."
She was about to say but I cut her off and said "I won't be able to sleep when I know that my baby girl
is sick. I am alright."
She sighed and nodded her head and said: "you can also take some rest in my cabin."
I nodded my head and said "thank you"
I kissed Mia's head which was warm and whispered "Ma loves you baby"
I turned back and saw Rose and Avril talking about something then Avril gave Mia some medication
and attached an IV as she was dehydrated.
My heart was feeling heaving when I saw her wailing when Avril pierced the needle in the back of her
small and fragile hand.
I wiped the tears from my eyes which were falling continuously. I grabbed her other hand and kissed it.
I kissed her tears away and now again she slept after weeping. I saw that Rose was not in the room.
I was about to sit in the chair when I got a call and the person is none other Jack.
I sighed tiredly and swiped the screen to the right and picked up the call and said "Hello"
"Have you reached Richard's house?" he asked me
"Yes. What do you want?" I asked him softly
"Anna. I want to talk with the babies. I am going to video call you." He said excitedly
I bit my lips and think about whether to tell him or not about Mia's situation.
But he is her father. He deserved to know about it. I was alone whenever I got sick in childhood.
"Jack. Mia is in the hospital." I told him softly.
"What" I heard him shout and I jumped.
"And when were you going to tell me," he asked me now in a calm voice.
"I... I had it handled. I didn't think about telling you as I was panicking." I told him honestly
I have finally told him what was going in my mind without thinking about the consequences.
Laura had told me that I have to tell him what was going on in my mind.
I can hear his heavy breathing from the phone and I gulped down the nervousness.
"I am coming there." He said and before I could deny him, he cut the call.
I looked behind me and saw Mr Williams was standing with a concerned look on his face.
"He is coming here?" he asked me
I massaged my temples and tiredly said, "Yeah he is coming here."
He sighed and said, "I will handle him."
I didn't say anything and kept my mouth shut. I am still not ready to believe that he would keep Jack
away from me.
"You are looking tired honey. Go and get a coffee." He said and I was about to refuse him.
But he shook his head and softly said "I am here with my grandchild. I was not there for you. Let me
compensate for it."
"I'll bring coffee for us," I said and gave a last look to Mia before exiting the room.
I walked toward the Cafetaria and bumped into someone and pulled back to say sorry.
But my words stuck in my throat when I saw the person who had a mop in her gloved hands.
A whisper came out of my mouth.
"Mother"
