"The procedure will be straightforward," he replied calmly, pushing the gurney alongside the team. There is nothing to worry about. I'll handle it with the head surgeon. It is just a minor surgery." "Jill has already ordered nourishing herbal soups to help you recover. After the surgery, you'll drink them, rest, and you'll be fine..."

After all, Leonard had been her college crush, the one she could never have.
Even though she always claimed she hated him now, a part of her still clung to the memory of the Leonard she once loved. Just like me.
If she knew the kind of man Leonard had become, would she lose faith in love, too? I wasn't sure if I was feeling sad for her or for myself, but the tears kept falling.
As the anesthesia took hold, I closed my eyes.
When I woke up, I knew. The baby was gone.

But now, even though my stomach looked the same, I felt the absence of a little life that had once been there. "Eva!" Jill and Emma were standing by my bedside, their eyes red and swollen from crying. I forced a weak smile. "What's with the long faces?" My voice was rough, raspy-like the sound of a broken instrument. I quickly shut my mouth in embarrassment. Jill broke down into sobs.
"Damn it! That bastard Leonard! How could he do this?" "Why didn't that person just finish him off? Knock ssense into him, at least!" "He's gone too far this time. Your baby..."

"Jill, would you stop? You're making it sound like you're the one with a terminal illness." He walked over, expressionless as ever, checking my IV and taking my temperature.
"A slight fever. Your body is like an old bicycle barely functioning, and if you keep pushing it, it's going to fall apart.
"This miscarriage took a toll on your body. You've lost a lot of blood, "Where's the soup? Jill, stop crying and bring it over."
Reluctantly, she brought over the large bowl of soup, its thick aroma filled ed with various herbs. One whiff and I shook my head. "You need to drink some," Julian insisted. "It'll help you recover. You need it."
"We'll pause the radiation treatments and chemotherapy for by for now. We'll see how you recover first. But you'll need to stay in the hospital for a while." He kept talking, more than I'd ever heard him speak before. But just then, the door opened, and here cZack. "Are you alright?"
