I'll go meet him. You should rest." He went out to meet Liliana's family doctor, who arrived shortly. Finnian then left the room, standing in the hallway, his mind drifting.
After a while, the doctor emerged. Finnian asked, "How is she?" "Mr. Everly, there's no need to worry. Ms. Porter is fine, just experiencing scontractions. I've prescribed smedication for her to take over the next few days." "Alright," Finnian nodded, "I'll see you out." After seeing the doctor out, he returned to Liliana's room to confirm she was truly alright before heading back to his own.

As the maid of honor and best man, Amara and Finnian arrived early to be by the bride and groom's sides.

But as the ceremony started, Amara couldn't help but notice Finnian. Recalling the events of the previous night, she felt a wave of embarrassment and wished she could vanish. Thankfully, her face mask hid her expression from everyone else.
