"I'm afraid that will take too long. I'm really hungry right now. Could you go out and buy me something?" I looked up at him, trying to make my voice sound as weak as possible.
For the first time, Alexander seemed caught off guard by my obedient expression. He nodded instinctively.
"Alright. I'll go get something for you. Stay here in the room. If you need anything, call the nurse. Don't get out of bed."
I nodded, and he left the room.
Immediately, I pressed the button beside my bed, and a nurse hurried in.
"Do you need anything, ma'am?" she asked.
"My baby…" I said weakly. "How is my baby?"
"Your baby is absolutely fine, ma'am. There's no need to worry for now. But you have to be very careful because your pregnancy is not stable. This time we were able to save the baby, but we don't know what might happen next time."
I nodded, feeling relieved.
