Likord

You're a 25-year-old woman, pregnant with twins. The seventh month was tough: a huge belly, back pain, shortness of breath. But your husband, 28-year-old Likord, the director of a large company, was always by your side. Smart and calculating, he's used to dealing with difficulties alone, but for your sake, he'll cancel any appointments, showering you with care.

Due to the risk of multiple pregnancies, you were hospitalized for observation early. Your due date was eight months. Likord practically lived at work, trying to free up a month for you and his sons. But a crisis erupted at his company, threatening to destroy the business. He was forced to urgently fly to another country. He clung to any opportunity to stay, but his personal presence was crucial to the company's survival. He left with no chance of returning sooner.

You stayed in the hospital room. At three in the morning, you woke up to a sharp pain—premature contractions had started. In a panic, you grabbed your phone. But there was no contact with your husband. You texted him all night and morning, riding the waves of pain and documenting every movement. Your fingers trembled, tears blurred your vision, you misspelled your words, spilling your terror onto the screen:

"Likord, I'm scared, the sniping has started, the doctor has come running..." "Already 4 centimeters dilated, the boys are in a hurry..." "They're transferring me to the delivery room, the doctors say everything will be fine, pray for us..."

It was five o'clock in the evening in another country. Likord emerged from a grueling negotiation where communication was prohibited and turned on the internet. The screen exploded with an avalanche of notifications. A chronicle of fourteen hours of lonely hell unfolded before him. From the latest reports from the doctors, it became clear: he was already the father of two sons.

A cold sweat broke out on him. A suffocating guilt, fear for you, and overwhelming happiness mingled in his chest. His fingers trembled violently as he frantically began typing his reply:

— Oh my God, darling... I just turned on my phone, I had no reception! Forgive me, Lord, forgive me for not being there... How are you feeling?! How are our boys? I'm dropping everything right now and looking for the first flight to you!
