Sophie`s POV
I woke up the next morning with Lok holding tight to my hand. He sat in the chair next to the bed. My head felt heavy and my whole body ached. I guess that`s to be expected though. I went through a lot yesterday. I sat up and a pain shot through my stomach. I had almost forgotten about the stiches. I looked over at Lok as his eyes slowly opened, showing his beautiful blue eyes.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I`m fine Lok." I said.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Lok. I`m sure. Stop worrying."
"I can`t help it. I almost lost you."
"I know. But I don`t want you worring about me so much."
"I`ll try not to."
"Thank you. Do you think I can see Nina?"
"I`ll go talk to the nurse." He let go of my hand and walked out. He came back a while later holding Nina. He put her in my arms and I smiled.
"Hi." I said, as her eyes slowly opened. Her blue eyes shinned up at me. "Hi sweety." It made me extremely happy to be able to hold her in my arms just yesterday I thought I wouldn`t even see the sun again. A tear fell down my cheek and I wiped it away. Lok looked at me, eyes filled with concern.
"What`s wrong Sophie?" He asked.
"It`s just so much to take in."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean that yeasterday I was told I wouldn`t make it to today. When Nina was born I thought I would only be able to hold her one time." More tears fell and a swiped them away quickly.
"But you`re here. You made it. Now we can be a family." He kissed my head and wiped away another tear. "I love you."
"I love you too."
"Remember. No matter what happens. I will be here for you." Nina squrmed in my arms and let out a small whine. "Both of you."
"You`ll make a great father Lok." I looked up from Nina`s eyes and met Lok`s identical ones.
"And you`ll be a great mother." He gently touched Nina`s cheek and traced along her chin. "I`m going to sign the release papers." He kissed my cheek and left the room, leaving me and Nina.
"You have no idea how lucky you are to have a daddy like you do." I cooed. Her small hand reached out to me and she grabbed my finger.
