Dave stared at Lea with sad eyes. He felt guilty because one night's mistake had fatal consequences for her health. She should not have experienced this if he was more careful in the past. Just like William said, he should never do unprotected sex.
Why did she experience all these unpleasant things alone? Why couldn't she share her woes with him? Was it because they do not love each other, then they both would not be able to share the pain?
"No way! You must have known that I had refused the doctor's request, right?" Lea asked, not needing an answer, of course. She knew that Dave already understood the condition she was in.
"Don't be stubborn, Lea!" he said. "I know it's hard, but you shouldn't insist on giving birth to this baby normally if your life is in danger. Think logically!"
Lea shook her head quickly. She resented having to argue about the same thing again and again.
