Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Amelia was over the moon to realize that George was awake this time when they arrived at the hospital.

Although George was still wheelchair-bound and unable to speak, Amelia was grateful that she could at least tell his emotions from his eyes.

At this moment, George was staring at her. His fingers resting on the wheelchair trembled as a result of his attempt to lift them.

Alice came across this scene as soon as she walked out from the washroom. Smiling, she said, "Amelia, I guess your father is saying that he wants to hold your hand."

"Mm." Amelia acknowledged her words politely before she bent down to pick up George's hand.

Feeling worried that George might not feel her hand, she squeezed his hand in hers tightly.

George could neither move his head nor speak for himself. Hence, he could only rely on his cloudy eyes to communicate his thinking to others.

After all, there was no way possible that Amelia could read his mind, not to mention the fact that the time she grew up spending with him was rather limited. Therefore, even if she could tell from his eyes that he was delighted, she was not sure about the exact reason behind it.

She thought that it might be best for her to ask Alice.

After holding his hand for awhile, Amelia put his hand down gently before she turned around and spoke to Alice, "Can I have a word with you, Aunt Alice?"

"Sure." Alice gave her a tiny nod before she turned and spoke to Patrick, "Can you please look after your dad while we're away, Patrick?

Half an hour ago I had just fed him. Considering the time now, I guess he will need to use the washroom in a short while. If you see him struggling to move his fingers, just let me know. Okay?"

Patrick replied, "Alright. Got it."

Alice could bring herself to leave with Amelia after obtaining Patrick's assurance.

They had not wandered to anywhere far. In fact, they stopped by the corridor to talk.
