I was lying in the hospital bed, nodding slowly. “Yes, Gregory.”

Initially, as I was searching for Gregory, I had slowly come to terms with the possibility that he might have died, this terrible piece of news.

But then, as I lay there on the hospital bed, clarity struck me. He couldn’t be dead.

That day, our chance encounter on the street must have been a divine sign.

After that, my health improved rapidly, as if someone on their deathbed had suddenly found a reason to heal.

Now, Gregory was far from his usual carefree self, his expression grave. “You can’t keep doing this, Jane,” he said sternly.

His stern look didn’t scare me one bit. “Gregory, if you dare get yourself hurt, I dare to die just to show you.”

“Are you threatening me?”

“Yes, I’m threatening you. Are you scared?”

“Scared.” He was at a loss with me, his eyes filled with fear and affection. “I’m not scared of anything, except for something happening to you.”

“Then promise me, promise me you’ll take care of yourself.”

I was scared too.
