She Is Mine

By Anton V Portman

In a dim hospital room, a weary woman lies still, processing recent events. A nurse enters, offering care and a kind smile, but the patient remains silent and unresponsive. She reflects on the unexpected turn of events, contemplating the life-altering moment she had anticipated for months. Despite the hustle and bustle of the hospital, she remains detached, her attention only captured when asked a daunting question, to which she responds in silence.

In a hospital room, a young nurse brings a tray of fruits and vegetables to a weary patient, urging her to eat. The patient, exhausted and disinterested, declines. The nurse's youthful optimism contrasts the patient's somber mood. Later, the patient is disturbed by work emails, feeling a mix of emotions. Another person, likely a colleague or supervisor, enters the room, scolding her for working and urges her to stop. The patient's intense gaze reveals a depth of emotions despite her outward composure.

In a hospital room, a woman named Eliza is recovering after giving birth. Emmy, her caretaker, attempts to comfort her. Eliza is preoccupied with work emails despite her weakened state. Emmy scolds her for not acknowledging her new role as a mother and urges her to face the reality of her situation. Eliza struggles with exhaustion and a lack of vitality, while Emmy provides support despite her stern demeanor.

In the hospital room, Emmy asks Eliza if she wants to hold her newborn baby, but Eliza refuses, overwhelmed by fear and sadness. Emmy gently cradles the baby, reminiscing about her own joyous experience with motherhood. Despite Emmy's hopeful encouragement, Eliza firmly rejects the idea of holding her baby.
