"Can I talk to my granddaughter?"

Seeing the pained expression of his wife, he can't help but frown and also feel his heartache for her, she has indeed suffered so much, when they were younger, the moment the word "family" was mentioned, there seems to be a shadow in her eyes, something that until now was never removed, so he definitely knows what his wife is going through. "Marga, if you don't want to acknowledge them, that's okay, if you don't want to see them, it's okay too, but knowing that your family has been looking for you all these years, don't you want to know what happened?" Stephen blurted out, he was aware of the situation, but knowing that Marga's family have in fact looked for her, made him soften up to them a little.

"Do you think I am childish right now Stephen? They said that they have looked for me, but why haven't they found me yet, it has been twenty-six years, twenty freakin' years have already passed and still they haven't found me, do you think I would believe such thing?" Marga feeling already emotionally drained, she already was tired enough that she just wants to lie down and sleep but at the same time, she wanted to get away from the hotel.

"Please help me pack Stephen, I want to get out of here....And I'm sorry that I shouted at you a while back." she regretfully said, her head was already throbbing, so when she stood up to get her bag, her vision went dark, and she almost hit her head on the bedside table, luckily Stephen noticed her pale demeanour and just as he suspected, his wife has suddenly become unconscious.

It's true that emotional pain was much harder to bear than the physical pain, Marga was still unconscious and she kept frowning during her sleep. Stephen had no choice but to put her on IV since just a moment ago, she was vomiting again and again, and her face was extremely pale. Could he have made a bad move when he decided to tell her about Mr.Lim, what is going to happen to Marga now, he doesn't want to think about the possibility of her waking up and start being indifferent if only he could take all the pain away.

While he was lost in his thoughts and looking down at his wife, he heard a know on their door, and he was not surprised to see Mr. Lim outside. "Can I talk to my granddaughter?" Mr. Lim asked, "Mr. Lim, as of the moment, Marga is unconscious and she has been vomiting quite a few times now. I think she was really stressed out about this matter, it may be a good idea not to disturb her first." Stephen said in a serious tone while he glanced towards their bedroom. "She also wanted to leave her immediately, and since this is the last day of our vacation, we will be leaving soon after she gains her consciousness and already can manage to stand." he continued.

Mr. Lim can't hide his gloomy face "But what about what I told you, can you make her talk to me at least? I will not force her to be with me Doctor, I just want her to know that I have looked everywhere for her and that she is not alone." his tone became pitiful as he spoke to Stephen. "You are my only chance son, please help this old man, this is the last thing that I will ask from you, after she would hear what I have to say, then if she decides to forget about it, I will never appear in front of her again." he stifled a cry, " I just want her to know that I was as lonely as she was, I wanted to let her know at least that we never abandoned her, and tell her how much we love her and long for her. Please, Doctor, I beg of you, help me out. Even if she screams at me, I will not mind, I just want to talk to her." Mr.Lim then leaned on the door, he was already breathless, he looked like he aged ten years just in the few hours.
