Hearing this, Ina nodded her head, She wanted to say something but her throat was dry and hurt a little bit.

"Don't say anything now, wait until the doctor comes and sees you." Ina heard her father say as he patted her head gently.

Both the Neurologist and the OB/GYN doctor's arrived in the room to examine her.

"Good evening, Miss Ina." Both doctors greeted her.

"I can say that regained your consciousnesses, Do you feel confused? Like it's hard for you to grasp your surroundings." The doctor asked as he started to examine her.

Ina nodded her head and the doctor smiled gently at her.

"Any heaviness in your lamps and dryness in your throat?" The doctor asked as he started to touch her arms and legs.

Ina nodded her head again.

"That's completely normal, Nothing to worry about, No I need to try and speak." The doctor said as he pressed the button on the side of the bed making her sit.

The doctor brought the glass of water for her and instructed her to hold it and she did but with a slower manner.

"Try to drink from it, Slowly." The doctor instructed.

Ina's eye met Damien's once and she saw him smile assuring her that she can do it.

Ina brought the glass of water to her eyes and started to drink from it slowly. It hurt at first but the water soothed the dryness of her throat.

"Now, Can you try and speak?" The doctor asked for a glass of water.

"I... It feels better now." Ina spoke as she looked at everyone in the room.

The doctor smiled down at her and continued his examination and then after the Neurologist came to the OB/GYN doctor, It took them about an hour to finish the examination and it left her exhausted.

When the doctor's left, Ina and her family finally had the chance to be alone.

"How do you feel?" Damien asked running his fingers through her hair before tugging it behind her ear.

"Better." She replied as she looked at him.

She didn't know why, But it felt as if she hadn't seen him in a long time and she missed him so much. She missed her family so much and she wanted to see her babies.

After spending about an hour with Ina, Her parents went to check on the babies and give the couple some space to catch up.

"It hurt a bit and it's painful to move." Ina said pointing at the wound in her lower abdomen.

Kissing her forehead, Damien wanted to take all her pain away, But he knew he couldn't, The wound will continue to be painful for another five days but he will make sure to take care of her.

"Do you want me to call the nurse to give some pain relief?" Damien asked and she shook her head now.

"Did you see the babies? How are they? They must be so small." Ina asked, wanting to know more about them.

She noticed a look of guilt appear on his face and she wondered why.

"Damien." Ina called him cupping his face.

"I didn't go to see them, I couldn't, Not without you, I wanted you to be the first one to hold them in your arms not me, Please forgive me for being a horrible father." Damien said as he looked at her.

Ina smiled at him and said.

"You are not a horrible father, You just have been worried about me, When the doctor allows it."

She understood that he was worried and couldn't think about anything else but her, That made her heart soften, It was obvious that he wasn't sleeping well because of the dark circles under his eyes.

"Okay." Damien replied to her words feeling much better now.

"I do have a photo of them." Damien said as he picked up his phone and showed her the photo.

Ina stared at the photo without blinking, Her heart was filled with sudden joy and happiness, Her smile lasted for a long time before she looked away from the screen and looked at him.

"I want to see them." Ina said blinking the tears in her eyes.

"You will and I'm sure that they are eager to feel their mother's warmth." Damien said, wiping the tear from the corner of her eyes.

He couldn't believe that she was finally awake and talking to him, He was restless and lost without her, Without her touch, Her voice, Nothing seemed to have meaning without her in his life.

Damien brought her hand to his lips kissing the inside of it, Letting his lips linger for some time.

Ina and Damien spent a long time speaking but she noticed that he was avoiding speaking about what happened a week ago, She had vivid memories of what happened and can't remember anything clearly, But it doesn't matter now, They will always have time to speak about it.

An hour later, After eating a little meal, A nurse came and took Ina and Damien to the NICU unit, where the babies are kept, Because she still couldn't walk, Ina had to use a wheelchair to be able to move.

Standing outside the room, Ina held Damien hand tightly in hers, She was both scared and happy and she welcomed these feelings.

Once they were Inside, Ina tried to look at the babies but because she was sitting, She couldn't see them properly.

"It's best if you had a skin to skin contact with them for the first time you hold them." The nurse advised her and Ina understood what she meant.

Ina asked Damien to untie her hospital gown for her, She lowered it enough to reveal her chest and the nurse started to put the babies in her arms slowly until the three of them were in her arms.

"Hey, Babies, It's Mommy, Sorry I wasn't able to hold you until now." Ina whispered to her babies as she gently stroked their little heads.

As if they sense their mother's warmth the triples rubbed their cheeks against their mother's chest and the little action left Ina speechless.

Seeing her holding them, A relief took over him, Damien promised himself to take care of the four of them until the day he died.

She turned to look at Damien who was sitting next to her and ask him to hold one of them.

"They are a spitting image of you." Ina said as she carefully handed the second baby to him.

Kissing their heads, Damien said.

"Wasn't that your wish?"

Placing the third baby in his hand, She nodded her head.

"It is and I'm happy that it came true." She said as she rubbed her cheeks.

"It's time for their feedings." The nurse said and Ina looked at her confused.

How can she feed them when she takes all these medications? Ina wondered.

The nurse smiled at her and explained.

"Miss Ina, During the time you were in an induced coma, We fed them your milk through suction, But now that you're awake you can feed them directly from your breast." The nurse explained.

Ina had planned to breastfeed her children when she got pregnant because it would benefit her disease and her babies but she thought she couldn't because she took many medication's.

"Let me touch you on how to do it." The nurse said as she took one of the babies from Damien and put it in her arms.

And to her surprise, The baby latched onto her breast and started to suck the milk almost immediately.

It took her about two hours to feed the three of them, It was exhausting but she felt happy.

Both Ina and Damien put the babies to sleep and went back to her room, The nurse asked her to rest and eat something until the next feeding time comes.

Ina was very happy that she couldn't sleep, She couldn't wait to go back there and hold them again.

"They looked so cute and tiny." Ina said, holding Damien's hand.

"Very tiny." Damien said smiling, He still couldn't believe that he became a father.

Ina asked Damien to come down lay down beside her, She had missed his warmth and wanted to feel it.

"We still haven't named them, I feel bad for them, What do you want to call them? Do you have names in mind?" Ina asked.

In the past eight months, They were so busy with her health that they hadn't thought about names for them.

"Let's think about it together." Damien said as he brought his phone to google for some names to pick from.
