Stella dropped the mixing bowl she held in the kitchen when she heard Ayla scream. The sound echoed through the house, causing Stella's heart to race with concern. She rushed towards the scream's source, fearing something terrible had happened to Ayla.
She found her daughter-in-law curled on the floor with her water broken. Stella immediately knelt beside Ayla, her mind racing with worry and adrenaline. She reassured her daughter-in-law that everything would be okay and quickly called for an ambulance to ensure both Ayla's and the baby's safety.
It wasn't time for Ayla to give birth yet. Stella knew that Ayla's premature labor could pose potential risks for both her and the baby. She tried to remain calm, reminding herself that panicking wouldn't help Ayla at all.
