One Week of Her Absence To Test Nathan's Feelings

Day Sixty-Four…

~~*****~~

[ At Greenbelt District Hospital… ]

Abigail never left Dave's ward. She was so happy because Dave's condition improved an hour after his surgery. From ICU, they transferred him to a private ward. Abigail couldn't wait for him to wake up. She had a lot of things she wanted to tell him.

Abigail sat next to his sick bed, holding his hand. She had been watching his sleeping figure for an hour now. Her eyes were still swollen from crying too much last night.

"Dave, thank you… for staying alive. I can't live without you. I want to stay with you and my family. You are also my family… my other half." Abigail brought his hand to her lips, kissing the back of his palm.
