They Finally MeetA Chapter by PoetressHere they all were on Christmas Day praying Reina and the twins survived. About nine hours later the same doctor came back. Everyone stood. "They all survived" the doctor declared. The doctor called Demetrius over. "She broke four ribs, suffered a broken leg and she is currently in a coma- the doctor saw Demetrius's apprehension. "Don't worry, her pupils are dilating so we know there is some brain activity" the doctor informed him. "And what of the children?" Demetrius asked. "We had to do a C-section to take them out. They are a bit small and premature but they are breathing on their own". "Can I see, Reina?" he asked. The doctor shook his head. "Not yet. They are moving her to ICU. You can go see your daughter and son though" the doctor told him. "Thank you, doctor" Demetrius said as he shook the man's hand. Demetrius and Lorenzo walked down to the ward where they kept the babies. Demetrius's heart swelled when he saw his babies in the incubator. "Can I hold them?" Demetrius asked the nurse. She nodded. "They are new to the world so you have to wash your hands and put this on over your clothes so they won't pick up any virus or infections" the nurse told him. Demetrius nodded and did what she asked. He sat in a chair and the nurse brought his daughter and son to him. Demetrius felt as if he was going to cry. He and Reina created these little miracles. His daughter stared up at him with a certain awe while his son looked around the room. "Makes me want to have one of my own" Lorenzo smiled down at the babies. Demetrius would look with love in his eyes everytime one of them moved or sighed. His daughter was still staring up at him, she had all the features of her mother while his son looked more like him. The nurse watched what was taking place. That's true love -she thought to herself. Demetrius felt as though he could hold them forever. "Mr. Vassaliadas, they have just informed me that you can go see your..." the nurse stopped. Of course she would, he was engaged to be married to Cybil Carter. Demetrius nodded. She took his son and daughter and placed them back in the incubator. "I am going to update the family" Lorenzo told him. Demetrius nodded and walked to the ICU.
