Chapter 107

Seeing her with all those tubes running out of her body was an experience I never thought I would ever have to see. Her face was so pale, and her eyes were sunken and swollen. A bandage circled her head to keep the incision they had made to stop her brain bleed

Images of her laying on that floor lifeless as the blood pooled out of her head had my heart squeezing all over again.

I had no idea what the fuck happened. She had just been going to the bathroom. How the fuck did she fall on the floor and hit her head? I had been in such shock and panic that I had no time at all to ask the questions that still needed answering.

She had been unconscious for the past three days and I was beginning to panic now. I had called in some of the best doctors this country has to offer and they had all said the same thing.

She will wake up when she’s ready.

But how was I going to know when she was ready? I had thought that maybe she would be awake at least by now but there wasn’t even so much as a twitch from her.

I stared down at her stomach which was covered with a blanket. The pain gripped my heart and all those tears that I had cried silently in the night threatened to give way.

She was going to be devastated.

I held onto her hand and brought it to my lips. I kissed each of her knuckles sofily, my eyes closing as I imagined the way her eyes would be looking at me.
