"You have to take risks once in a while."

Tom looked up as a man sat down next to him in the waiting room of the newborn unit. He recognized him as Gabriel Agreste. Their wives had bonded a little because they both had shared a room due to pre-birth difficulties.

"Risks like what?"

"Risks like trying to get a child."

Toms sighed and sat up straighter.

"What are you trying to say?"

Gabriel propped his elbows up on his knees and buried his face in his hands.

"Félicie-... She-..."

Tom furrowed his eyebrows and placed a heavy hand on the scraggy man's shoulder.

"What is it?"

He heard a quiet sob just as Gabriel's shoulders started to tremble.

"A-Adrien-... He d-died-... After-..."

Tom rubbed up and down Gabriel's back as he leant back, brushing over his eyes with his free hand.

"I'm-... I'm sorry..."

The blonde man sobbed for a little longer until he wiped his eyes as well and leant back.

"How's Félicie doing?", Tom asked carefully.

"She's-... She needs some time..."

The bulky man nodded and patted on Gabriel's back, then retracted his hand.

"How's Sabine?", for the first time the blonde looked up, hope in his eyes. Tom gulped.

"She-... Needs some time as well..."

"Oh...", Gabriel's shoulders slumped and he looked away, then he caught Tom's gaze again, "... Has something-... Happened?"

Tom bit his lip and readjusted his position by sitting more upright, then he bent forward but decides that leaning back was better.

"She-... Wasn't far enough into pregnancy for Marinette to stabilize again... Sabine's in the fourth month... Marinette died yesterday without the doctors noticing and it was too early for her to be taken into premature baby care. Not with-... With 28 weeks...", he rubbed over his face and stifled a little sob, "Sabine will have to carry her out until she naturally gives birth."

Gabriel stiffened and slowly nodded.

"Means, she will-"

Tom nodded silently.

"... Give birth to a dead baby... In a few months..."

Both men turned away and stared out of the window.

"You have to take risks once in a while.", Gabriel suddenly said again. Tom sighed.

"Risks like what?"

"Risks like trying again."
