Chapter 41

I accepted Doctor Nathan’s lunch invitation since I wanted to discuss Garrett’s condition anyway. 1 nodded in agreement.

“We have a cafeteria for the medical staff. Would that be okay?” he asked

“Yeah, sure.”

We walked to the cafeteria, which was an attractive space on the left side of the lobby.

The place was spotless and welcoming. As we walked in, people in white coats glanced our way.

They showed their respect to Doctor Nathan with slight nods. He led me to the last table by the window and pulled out a chair.

“Have a seat,” he offered.

“Thanks.”

After I sat down, he took the chair across from me.

He placed the bouquet on the table and called over a waiter, who quickly came to our table.

“Doctor Nathan,” the waiter greeted him before glancing at me.

I felt uncomfortable as people started looking our way. I started thinking maybe coming here wasn’t such a great idea. We should’ve gone somewhere else.

“Please order whatever you’d like,” Doctor Nathan said, pointing to the menu on the table.

Since I hadn’t eaten breakfast, I was pretty hungry. I picked up the menu, placed my order, then handed it back to Doctor Nathan. He ordered his food, and the waiter left.

“So? How did you manage to survive? It’s truly a miracle,” Doctor Nathan said.

I looked down at my hands on the table, then turned to look out the window, watching cars pass by outside the hospital. After gathering my thoughts, I replied, “Getting across the border was tough. But luck was on our side – it saved both my babies and me.”

“How are they doing?”

I looked back at him. “They’re doing great, healthy too. Thank you, Doctor Nathan, for keeping my
