#Chapter 65 (Arina) – Recovery
The morning after giving birth, I thought my entire body was on fire. I woke up groggily and weak. It felt as though every morsel of my body was betraying me. My fever had spiked higher than it’s ever been. My skin was red from the heat, and I was becoming delusional.
I was lucky that Doctor Beverly was by my side the entire time; she kept me hydrating and pumped me with antibiotics to help fight any infections. She also kept giving me vitamins to build my immune system back up.
I was told that during the childbirth process, my heart grew too weak, and I almost didn’t make it. They said if Naomi wasn’t there to keep me stabilized, I would have died. I hadn’t seen Naomi since she soothed away the pain while I was giving birth. When I woke up this morning, she was gone, and no one has mentioned her.
