Helen didn't make it out alive from the procedure, but the baby did.

For the third time in Marvelous' life, tears rolled down from his eyes. It went down his cheek, then his chest. First was his mom when he was 16, second was Constance eight months ago, and now is Helen. These were the women he truly loved.

"If I had not forced myself on her that day, she wouldn't have been dead now." Marvelous muttered these words to himself as he was frustrated and bent on taking his life too.

However, just that moment, one of the doctors beckoned upon him. As he walked in to the room the baby was, a beaming smile forced itself out of his face still with tears.

The baby had the exact eyes of Constance, the beautiful lips of Helen and the pointed nose of his late mother.The baby was three-in-one of all he had lost and loved. That moment, he loved her at first sight. He named her after Helen and Constance

"Welcome Hen-Stance" Hesaid to the baby.
