(thanks for always being so understanding! and surely you aren't doing too much, and I appreciate that you sometimes go back to edit your posts, since once in awhile the time line is a little mixed up, but next i checked you would have amended it to make it smooth ;))
(hmm, and err, sorry to have interrupted again. i believe a fetus at this very early stage of pregnancy would be too small to be cremated? at least that is what google tell me: at 10 weeks, which is approximately where we are at this pregnancy, the baby's the size of a strawberry..... surely this wouldn't affect where we are going in this rp, but just saying since it would be difficult for there to be a funeral/casket....?)

Those loving words from his wife was so endearing, Nick almost broke down again. Aki, no matter the circumstances, was so loving and gentle. They were both trying so hard for each other, especially at difficult times as this one. He sighed and returned the embrace, hugging Aki and nodded - yes, they would get through this together.
The doctor was at first still too worrired to leave them alone, seeing the tears still flowing, but after awhile he realised this was just a quiet moment of mourning, and that the couple needed this time to adjust to the tragedy that had struck them. He sighed and decided to take his leave - at least they weren't alone in this. And wiht Nick and Aki's love for each other, he was sure they would get through this and start taking care of the remaining twin.
Nick allowed the sadness to shroud them for some more time, before he straighteneed up and wiped away his own tears. Cupping Aki's face in his palms, he kissed the tears away from Aki and smiled. "Aki, there's one more member to our family... perhaps it was made to be. The angel twin was made to be in the heaven, looking after the remaining siblings. He or she woudl be having a great life, and he or she would be there for us at all times. He or she might have been the hero who'd saved the little miracle baby in your tummy now, by sacrificing themselve.... " he said, again cupping Aki's middle. It was still so flat, as if nothing had happened, but now they knew there was one strong life residing within, and they had to be careful now to take care of this precious gift they had.
Under Nick's gentle caress, Aki soon fell asleep. From that day onwards, he was kept in the hospital. Nick had moved everything to the hospital room so he could be wiht Aki at all times, while working simulatenously on his computer. It was funny how he gradually almost moved his entire office desk to the hospital, with papers laid out and computer almost always on, typing away emails and making important decisions - but at the same time he was taking care of Aki and meeting all his needs.
It was almost 2 weeks of stay before the doctor finally allowed Aki off the bed. He could walk around now that the remaining twin had setttled in his womb, looking again healthy and strong from the ultrasound. Nick was only too happy to be escorting Aki out to walk in the park, enjoying the sunshine. Over the 2 weeks of bedrest, Aki had gained a tiny bit of belly, even the doctor praised that the baby had been growing fast and healthy.
(sorry i did a little time skip. i hope they would walk out of this depressing moment soon enough - as in real life. it isn't healthy to dwell in tragedy that struck, the important thing was to look forward!)
