CHAPTER 19: BEAR MY CHILD
* * *
Nikki placed her hand on top of her chest upon its loud thud. Why did she even run? She's gone crazy.
Slowly, Nikki made light steps back to the lounge, where Aunt Maria sat quietly on the long couch.
"Aunt Maria? Why don't you go back to the room downstairs?" She urges her to take some rest.
"Don't worry, Nikki. I am fine here. I can't sleep."
"How about coffee?" she asked.
"Sounds a wonderful idea," the woman agreed.
Nikki left the floor and went to the Coffee Shop. When she came back, six cups of coffee were in her hand.
"Caitlin, here's a mocha latte and cappuccino." Nikki places four cups on the counter.
"Thanks, Nikki!" The nurses on the night shift duty thanked her.
"Thank you, Nikki. I just came out of Aunt Lucy's room. So far, her vitals are stable. But we have to pray she'll wake up sooner."
"Thank you, Caitlin."
