Chapter 23

sylvie woke up in an hospital room, Kage seated beside her bed.

She couldn't remember much. But she knew she'd passed out in the car, or partially passed out.

She could remember being held close by someone, by Kage? She remembered the words "you'll be fine Hell, no. There was no way that had been Kage.

You awake," he sighed, sitting up

Groaning, she sat up as well, her hand going over her head. She felt a lot better, but her head still ached.

"Yeah... she looked around. "You brought me here?"

"Well, do you think you're capable of driving yourself here after passing out in the car?" His grumpy response as always.

There was a temporary silence. Then, he asked. "why didn't you tell me you were this sick? You could've taken a few days off

"Like you would've granted it." she scoffed.

"I may be many things, Sylvie, but I still have a five percent kindness in me. Besides, of what use will it be if you ended up dead before the project is completed!" Sylvie's hand went across her tummy, but she brought it down as quickly as she could.

"Did um...the doctor say what was wrong with me?" She nervously asked.

"He did." He answered. "But he said he'd only tell you about it,"

Sylvie's heart skipped a beat. The doctor definitely knew. But she wasn't sure he'd told Kage yet

"Is there something I should know, Sylvie?" He asked.

Sylvie swallowed hard, her heart sinking into her stomach.

"Something like what?" She tried to hide her nervousness.

"I don't know, but you didn't have any complications from the miscarriage, did you?"
