Part 4/7:
When Obby finally went into labor, anticipation pulsed through O. Yet, when the midwife delivered the news—twins who were both girls—both he and Obby faced the grim reality of disappointment. The bitterness of loss engulfed them; O realized he had driven away the very woman capable of giving him the son he had longed for.
The emotional tide turned when O learned of Adur's unexpected pregnancy. While she was nurturing a boy, he was left to wallow in regret for having chased away his true love. The echoes of laughter from daughter Nea and the joyful sounds of his family's home drowned by his guilt became an unbearable reminder of the family he had rejected.
