288 288. Mr. Markus and Miss Kizy

'How I wish for the time to stop. I wish I could stick you by my side so you will never be out of my sight for even a second. I wish we could grow up parenting our children while bickering with each other. And then someday grow old while having a cup of coffee and sit leisurely on a balcony, basking in sunlight during winters or maybe watching a rainbow in the rainy season. So I just want you with me, no matter if we are laughing or crying, depressed or angry, I just want us to be together.' Kizy thought while lying in Markus's arm, content.

Soon the couple was fast asleep, relieved to have each other's embrace. Finally Kizy and Markus were able to calmly sleep without thinking about the problems behind them.

They were still fast asleep when the door to the VIP ward swung open, though luckily no noise was made.

Yet Markus instantly woke up, only to be met with two pairs of emotional eyes.
