The Marvelous Elijah's Return
Chapter 23
She needs you
The hospital room was filled with silence once the doors to the room closed. Then Elijah turned to look at Peach, asking, “Are you okay?” “Yeah… Yeah, I am fine.” Peach muttered, crossing her arms across her chest, lowering her eyes to the ground, and sighing softly. “I’m sorry…”
“For what?” Elijalı asked, tilting his head slightly to the side.
“For being like that…” Peach murmured, clenching her teeth together and averting her eyes away from him. “When you start fighting for your right at a young age, you get angry at whoever tries to take it away from you…” “You don’t have to explain yourself, Peach, I understand where you are coming from,” Elijah replied simply.
Peach shook her head, still refusing to meet his eyes, “No, you don’t. It was unfair for you to have to defend me… And I am sorry. I should never have put you in such a position..”
Elijah gave a small smile, reaching out to touch her arm. He rubbed his thumb gently over her wrist, giving her a reassuring look, and said, “Don’t worry about it.”
When Peach looked over at her mother, Miss Grace wanted to be mad at her daughter, but she knew after her husband died and she had a heart attack, Peach had to fight against everyone coming after them at a young age, and it was not easy for her either.
So seeing her like that now reminded her too much of what they had gone through, especially in regards to how cruel and uncaring some people could be at times to them.
“Mama, I am so sorry,” she quietly uttered, her voice cracking with sadness. “I shouldn’t have said”
“It wasn’t your fault, Peach,” Miss Grace interrupted gently. “I mean, it was not your fault. I’m sure your father would have done the same thing in this matter. You have his fighting spirit, and he would be so proud of you.”
A sad, longing expression overcame Peach’s eyes, and her lips began quivering uncontrollably as the memories of her father flashed through her mind, the warm smile on his face, gentle eyes filled with concern when he looked at her, and the way that he made her feel safe.
The sound of the room door opening startled everyone, making them all turn to see Doctor Ben standing there with a confused and worried expression on his face. Then he fixed his eyes on Peach and said, “There’s a… umm… Well… there’s a little issue.” The look of guilt in his eyes and how he won’t stare directly at her face made Peach furrowed her brows in confusion as she waited for him to continue.
