Without respect love is lost, without caring love is boring, without honesty love is unhappy, without trust love is unstable.

Chapter Eight

Devin Cay's General Hospital – Sunday Morning – 1:13 a.m.

“Is there anything else you need me to do before the crew and I take the shuttle back to the hotel? Or would you prefer that we stay?”

It was the unobtrusive voice of Ms. Hive, Armando’s concert planner, who’d been sitting with Armando in the waiting room the last twenty minutes or so. Another twenty minutes before, Armando was leaving the stage after an electrifying performance in one of his most successful concerts to date. And to think that his pregnant wife had been admitted into the hospital for early labor symptoms. One would imagine that it would have affected Armando’s energy. But his output was no different from the dozens of concerts he’d put on throughout his music career. A lively act that always sent the crowd into a rhythmic frenzy. Be that as it may, Armando’s listless demeanor was quite apparent, and Ms. Hive could tell that Annalise’s condition was finally beginning to take its toll on him.

“Did you hear what I said?” she prompted. “Let us know what you want and we’ll comply.”

Armando looked past Ms. Hive and noticed two nurses had rushed back into Annalise’s hospital room – like they’d done fifteen minutes ago. He sprang to his feet and even though he’d been advised to sit in the waiting area, he didn’t think twice about following them. At this point, he was beyond exasperation at how slow the hospital had been in releasing information about his wife. All he knew was that Annalise had been howling off and on for the last six hours and that she was in excruciating pain. Being already three centimeters dilated, Annalise certainly appeared to be experiencing signs of early labor, but the medical staff weren’t saying more than that.

When Armando entered Annalise’s room, the midwife turned her head away from him, fixing her gaze to the floor. It was a sure sign confirming Armando’s suspicion that all was not well with his wife. She looked haggard, a perfect description of a woman who’d cried her last cry and was fed up with being kept in the dark about her condition. Moving his gaze toward the IVs and the electronic fetal heart monitor to observe the baby’s heart rate, Armando assumed he would have been cradling his baby girl in his arms by now.

“Where is the doctor?” he demanded.

“He will be in shortly,” one of the nurses said stiffly. She returned to inject something into one of Annalise’s IVs, her last words a strain, “And he will speak to the both of you.”

“Why does he need to speak to the both of us? Is there a problem with the baby?”

“I’m sure the doctor will answer any questions you may have,” the other nurse chimed in. “We are here to check your wife’s blood pressure and her protein level.”

Annalise turned her frantic eyes on her husband, weakly shooing her hands at the nurses.
