"Calm down, son "

"Having lost a lot of blood she slipped into a coma after we got the baby out of her " he said.

"But...but will she be okay, " Jack asked

"She passed the critical stage all we have to do now is observe her and hope she's able to wake up from it "

"Can I see her now?" Chris asked.

The doctor gave him a slight smile while nodding, "But that will be after she's put in a comfortable room" he said. "And I advise you go see the baby too and let him lay next to his mother, she might not be fully awake but his presence can be of help in improving her condition "

Chris nodded and followed the doctor to go see his son.

Jack hugged Alfred trying to hide his tears, Camilla's parents sobbed silently while the others turned away in sadness.

Ray who heard everything sniffed holding back his already flowing tears. The gloomy atmosphere proceeded until Chris walked in holding the new member of their family.

Gasps were heard all around as they moved closer to the newborn.

Black little eyes with dark hair, big chick cheeks, and a tiny nose stared back at the strange faces.

"It's a smaller version of Chris " Camilla's mother smiled.

"He looks like you brother " Jack chuckled wiping away his tears.

"Welcome to the family, little Chris " Alfred giggled.

Ray and Rachel walked closer, Ray looked down and could not help but smile at the cute little face.

His grandparents held him then the others took turns holding him. Chris then carried him to the room where his wife was transferred.

Her beautiful pale face was motionless as she lay down on the hospital bed. He sat next to her bed and placed the now sleeping baby next to his mother.

"Milla, look isn't he so tiny and fragile," he said looking down at the baby. "You need to wake up soon and see his face, everybody claims he looks just like me " he chuckled hiding his tears.

Gently moving her hand he placed it next to their son.

"You need to wake up, love. I can't do this without you " his voice seemed to get lost within his hidden sobs.

Later when his father & her parents came to see her, Chris decided to go see the doctor.

Ray who had been avoiding him tagged along.

They sat next to each other in the office.

"Doctor I wanted to know how my son is going to be fed without Camilla being awake?" he asked

"You don't have to worry about that, the nurse will take him to his mother when it's time and help him feed," he said.

"Is that okay?" Ray asked.

The doctor nodded, "Since the body already was in that state, the moment he sucks on her breast he will be able to be fed . The nurse will just help put him on and hold him while he feeding then takes him away after".

Both men nodded.

" You don't have to worry, with the way she's responding to the treatment we have hope that your wife will wake up soon"

Leaving the doctor's office they headed to her room to see his mother come out. She had not noticed them yet, and with a smile on her face she walked off.

"YOU?.." Chris barked. Before Ray could stop him Chris was beside his mother in seconds.

His hand went to her neck, squeezing with his might Chris pinned his mother to the wall.

"Chris, Chris...stop it " he could hear Ray shout but pushing his voice to the back of his head he continued to strangle his mother.

"You..." he said with gritted teeth, "did this to her. And still have the nerve to appear here " he moved and banged her head a few times on the wall.

The noise was heard by the patients and doctors nearby and soon the hallway was filled with them.

"I told you not to touch her " he cried still putting pressure on her neck. "But you still did and now look where we are "

His father and Camilla's mother soon arrived. Ray begged some of the doctors to help and soon Chris was pulled away from his mother.

She collapsed the moment he let go.

One of the nurses and doctors ran to her aid and she was carried away.

Chris was crying still cursing at his mother. His father bent down and held him.

"Calm down, son " he whispered in his ear. Chris held onto him and cried. His father could feel him tremble in anger and sadness.

After the doctor checked on Camilla and made sure she was okay he left the room. Chris walked in with his father and sat next to her.

Holding her hand he sat there in silence watching her sleep. His father walked out and told the nurse to bring his grandson.

Chris was lost in thought when his father tapped his shoulder.

"Son, I think he wants you to hold him," he said.

Chris looked up at his father and his son. He nodded and took him in his hands.

"Am sorry son, it's all my fault. If I had been more better and strict on her then maybe she wouldn't have indulged herself this much " his father sat next to him.

Chris sighed watching his son's small face.

"I don't think mom will ever stop until Camilla's is gone," he said.
