“Mommy’s waiting in the car!” Dad announced, taking Zayna’s hand. They walked through their front door and out into the crisp morning air. Zayna peered out the car window as they drove, watching houses and trees whiz by. A tiny bit of nervousness, like a tickle, began to mix with her excitement.

Soon, they arrived at the hospital, a big building with many windows. The hallways inside felt long and quiet, different from home. Zayna clutched Daddy’s hand a little tighter, her steps quick and small. She tried to be brave, but her tummy still felt like a fluttery butterfly.

They sat in a comfy waiting room. Mommy rested, and Daddy talked softly with her. Zayna tried to concentrate on a book about a brave badger, but her gaze kept wandering to the door. When would it be time? The anticipation was a gentle hum inside her.

After what felt like a very long time, Daddy gently tapped her shoulder. “Zayna, sweet pea,” he whispered, his eyes twinkling, “It’s time. Mommy and your little sibling are ready for you.” Zayna’s heart did a little leap. This was it! She carefully closed her book, her smile brightening with renewed excitement.

Daddy took her hand, and they walked down another long corridor, quieter this time. He told her about how brave and strong Mommy had been, and how excited the baby was to finally meet its big sister. Zayna listened, a warm feeling spreading through her chest. She took a deep, steadying breath.

They reached a door. Daddy pushed it open gently, revealing a room bathed in soft light. Zayna peered inside. There, sitting in a cozy armchair, was Mommy, holding a tiny bundle wrapped in a pale cream blanket. Zayna took a small, hesitant step forward, her eyes wide with curiosity.

Mommy looked up, her blue eyes shining with love. “Come closer, sweetie,” she whispered, her voice soft and warm. Zayna, still a little hesitant, slowly walked towards the armchair. Every step felt quiet and important. She noticed how small the baby was, almost like a tiny doll.
