Painful Guilt
“She is still sleeping, and I suggest that she takes some time to recover here in the hospital. We may need to run checks on her afterwards because this might also be a result of stress or some other underlying condition,” the doctor said before showing me a small smile of reassurance.
“Thank you,” I replied softly.
The doctor nodded at me before walking off. Then one of the nurses approached me to explain that Dahlia would be moved to her private room.
…
I made sure that Delia got the best hospital room as if it would somehow lighten my sense of guilt. I wanted her to wake up in a comfortable room, where natural light shone in from the window. I wanted her to be able to see the view of the garden when she looked down from the window because I had no idea how long she needed to stay in the hospital for. Although I didn't like the idea of Dahlia spending time outside of the mansion, I would prefer for her to fully recover before making her return.
