Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Vera's eyes turned red and she felt a twinge in her heart. She rushed over and hugged her mother, Mabie.

"It's good that you're finally here," Mabie said as she patted her on the back. Tears started to pool in her eyes as well as they hadn't seen each other in so many years. After Vera stepped out of the embrace, she looked at her mother with tears in her eyes and asked, "Dad... How is he doing?"

"The doctor said that he has to be hospitalized for observations for 48 hours after successfully resuscitating him. He would be fine once he is out of the woods, but..."

"48 hours..." Vera nearly passed out when she heard the time.

Wouldn't that be two days?

How did he get so severely injured?

"Where is he now? Can I go visit him?"

Mabie shook her head and said, "He's in the ICU right now. The doctors don't allow multiple visits at the moment. Your relatives came this morning. We can only take a look at him from outside his ward." "Alright."

On their way to the ICU, Mabie suddenly frowned and said, "There seems to be a strange smell. What's that smell?"

Vera wanted nothing more than to see her father right now. She shook her head indicating that she could not smell what Mabie had.

Just then, Mabie looked at Vera in astonishment. "Vera, how, how can you come to the hospital looking like this?" She exclaimed.

It had been many years since they had met and Mabie was too excited to take notice. But now, she realized Vera had come dressed in her pajamas. Moreover, there were stains on it and her hair was unkempt.

"Mom? What's wrong? Let's go and see Dad."

Mabie stopped in her tracks and thought for a moment. "I'm afraid that you will frighten your dad if he wakes up and sees you looking like this."

Vera was confused. "What's wrong with me?" She asked.

"Look at how messy your hair is. Even a chicken's nest looks nicer than your hair. And the foul smell that I was referring to..." Mabie leaned in and got a whiff of her body odor. She then took a couple of steps back in disgust as she said, "Tell me, when was the last time you had taken a shower? You smell very bad. Didn't anyone faint on your way here?"

Vera was at a loss for words.
