"Does it hurt?" Keegan asked again.
Stella shook her head and then hesitated before saying, "My lower back hurts a bit. I bumped into something just now."
Keegan gently massaged her back, his voice hoarse. "I haven't even thought about their names yet."
Stella didn't know what to say.
"I haven't decided either."
Keegan's eyes welled up. "Let's decide on one now, just in case..."
Before he could finish, Stella covered his mouth with her hand. "I know you're worried, but don't jinx it."
By now, the doctor had finished the examination and was writing out a
prescription. "Marginal placenta previa, not a major issue, but we need to monitor closely. It's best to rest in bed for a day."
Keegan blinked, pulling Stella's hand away from her mouth, uncertain." Doctor, are both she and the baby okay?"
The doctor replied, "They're fine."
Keegan pressed on, "But she's bleeding."
"Marginal placenta previa can cause bleeding. As long as it's not excessive, reduced activity and bed rest should suffice."
"But she was pushed just now and hit her back."
"Oh," the doctor said, "we'll apply ice and then heat to reduce swelling. It should go down in a couple of days."
Keegan was speechless.
"I mean, she was pushed on her back. Is her stomach okay?"
The doctor countered, "What does her back being hit have to do with her stomach?"

Seeing his tense expression, the doctor added, "The bleeding she's experiencing isn't from the bump on her back. It must have been going on for a while unnoticed. You happened to see it after the bump, so you think they're related. They're not. The baby and your wife are fine. As for naming, it's better to do it at home after calming down. It's not auspicious to name someone in tears."
Keegan was silent once more.
Lost in thought, Keegan met Stella's reassuring eyes, feeling a bit embarrassed. He sighed with relief, then whispered, "Thank goodness you're okay."
Stella held his hand. "Honey, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Keegan brushed her forehead. "Stella, let me handle this. Someone burdened
with guilt cannot face the victim properly. It's better if I handle it."
Stella hesitated. "The Vinci Rivera Group just released a new product. You're so busy with work, and I don't want-"

I was afraid I couldn't hide my worry about the pregnancy, afraid my memory loss wouldn't fool Jaylene, afraid she'd notice your investigation into Darcie, afraid they'd target you first.
