Everywhere around them were people. They were talking, waiting or shouting at the nurses and doctors. Jack and his children and Monica were all sitting around a round table in the waiting room. Monica tried to comfort Meg, who was very worried about her mother. But Monica could barely hold back her own tears. The process of waiting was the most unbearable thing. They waited for the doctor to come out and tell them everything will be all right. Helen and the baby are all right and everything will go back to normal. But they knew it wouldn't.Helen had been here for now 4 houres and no one told them what happened to her or what they were doing. "Mr. Bennett?" A black skinned man came into the room with some papers under his left arm. By hearing his name, Jack jumped up from his seat and shoo the hand of the man in the white coat. "My name is Doctor Newman and I'm the one who operated your wife some minutes ago." At that moment everyone, Meg, the boys and Monica stood up and looked at the doctor closely. He nodded his head to them to greet them. "Was it that bad, Doctor?" Jack asked quietly still not believing what he heard. Dr. Newman took his glasses to read the informations on his papers. He took in a deep breath as he massaged his chin. "Yes, it was and it was very close. If she had arrived some minutes later, we wouldn't have been able to help her anymore." He looked up from his things and his eyes softened a little. "I'm sorry, but we had to get the baby." There was a long silence until he spoke again. "The baby isn't dead and the chances that it will survive are quiet good. I'm more worried about your wife. She lost much blood and is very weak." Meg threw her arms around Bunji, because both of them needed this. Bunji let his tears fall free down his face. This was all the fault of Sandy. She wanted Helen to do this to herself. Monica tried to be strong and comforted Eric and JD by laying her hands on their shoulders. Jack opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. "Ca-can we see Helen?" He whispered and looked away ashamed of his tears. Dr. Newman put a hand on his shoulder and answered. "Yes, you can see your wife. She's in room 432 and if you want you can see your daughter as well." Jack lifted his head as he talked of his daughter. He slowly got back control over himself. "How does it come that the baby is so weak. I mean, the birth-date is in 3 ½ weeks from now." Dr. Newman took his glasses back off and motioned jack and his family to follow him. "Jack, I'm going home now. I'm really tired and I know that you want to be alone now with Helen. Can I phone you later?" Jack smiled at Monica and gave her a hug. "Thank you for staying and helping us, Monica!" She kissed him on the cheek and gave each of the children a big hug, before leaving . "To answer your question, Mr. Bennett. Your wife had pushed the knife into her stomach and had hurt the water. The baby hadn't enough anymore and we had to get it out of her. It was too dangerous for both mother and baby. The baby's breathing is not regular as well as it's heartbeat." As they walked into Helen's room, the doctor whispered. "I'll tell a nurse to bring the baby here. I'm sure it'll help if Helen feels that her baby is all right. She'll arrive in some minutes." With that he closed the door behind him and the family was alone with Helen. She was locked to a loth scary and different machines. The beeping noises of them made the situation much mor uncomfortable than it all ready was. She looked so lost and small in the huge bed and all the electronics going in and comeing out of her whole body. Jack sat down on one side of the bed and took his wife's hand and squezzed it softly. "Helen, we are all here with you. I hope you can hear us. You got us all worried and we pray that you'll wake up soon! Please you can't leave us like this and not with such an unnecessary reason." Meg sat on the other side of the bed and ran her hand up and down her Mom's arm. Eric, JD and Bunji were standing at the end of the bed. Jack's head sank down and he laid his forehead down on Helen's hand. Slowly the door opened and a white dressed nurse walked in with a little comforting smile on her face. Behind her was a small cribe and she took it in and closed the door again. "Good evening!" She whispered and looked at everyone and at the end at Helen. A sad hint crossed her face, but their attention soon left Helen as they heard a small whimper from the cribe. The nurse's smile returned and she bent down and lifted the small 3 houres-old baby out. At this noise Jack lifted his head and looked at the small baby-girl in the nurse's arms. She went up next to Jack and put the small baby into his waiting arms. "May I introduce you to your daughter, Mr. Bennett?!" She turned to the boys and girl. "And your little sister?!" Jack watched his new baby-daughter closely. She was dressed in a white little outfit and her eyes were closed. Her small little hands were fists and she turned her head as if she didn't like this new world around her.
