' I think she's warming up to me being her father.' I hear Owen say.
I know that they think I'm still asleep, but I've long woken up now.

" Thank you." I hear Owen say, as he walks the doctor out.I touch on my bandaged middle, sighing in relief that it's not as painful anymore. When the doctor had touched and pressed the wound, the tingling was replaced by a shot of pain.Thankfully, he told us that I just need to take a better look after myself and not push too hard. I should not push too hard to fully recover, I should allow everything to take natural cause.I think Owen must be more relieved, when the doctor had said we didn't need to go to the hospital. I'm pretty sure that he has no desire to ever visit the hospital again.

It's not the same Aiden, and you know it....."He sighs, turning away from me and taking a seat at the edge of my bed. I join him after some time and we sit in silence for a few minutes." You really are pushing me to kick you out faster."" Wow, someone's eager to get rid of me." I say sarcastically." Yeah, I am, because it'll be much easier to watch you walk away.""
