An Emergency Situation

Day Twenty Five…

~~*****~~

Nathan was sitting in the waiting area outside the operating room. He looked absentminded while staring at his bloody hands. The blood in his palms belonged to Abigail. She lost too much blood.

She got three gunshot wounds. But he only saw the gunman pulling the trigger twice. He assumed that the first gunshot hit Abigail the moment she turned him around, switching their positions.

"Why did she save me? Why did she protect me? I thought she wanted revenge since I destroyed the Phantom's Assassin Guild. Is this one of her schemes? But she might die." Nathan became more confused now. He couldn't understand why Abigail protected him.

Nathan was still lost in his thoughts when the door of the operating room slid open. One nurse was rushing out. Nathan stood up and asked her. "How is she?"
