"Alright," Nina agreed, telling her, "Let's sleep."

Yvonne was exhausted and quickly fell back asleep. However, Nina had too much on her mind to rest.

Yvonne's mention of praying made her think of the green prayer beads Wilfred always had with him, which felt oddly familiar.

In the morning, Nina was awakened by Yvonne's urgent voice.

"Nina, wake up! It's bad. Nash is in critical condition!"

Nina's eyes flew open. "What?"

Her heart raced as she jumped out of bed. "When did this happen?"

"Just now. They called from the hospital!" Yvonne explained.

Seeing the missed call on her phone, Nina's heart sank.

Was Nash really not going to make it?

Tears welled up in her eyes as she imagined a life without Nash. If he died, she would never see him again, and that thought was unbearable. She felt as though her heart had been ripped apart. Fighting back her tears, Nina hurriedly dressed, knowing she needed to be strong and get to the hospital.
