Chelsea“Are you not going to say anything to me? We don’t have a lot of time left.”Nathan tensed up at my words. I could tell that he was struggling with himself, and it hurt so much that I couldn’t do anything about it.He was trying to hide how scared he was, but I could see through him, and honestly, if not for the mild oral sedative that I was given, I probably would have been super tense right now. The medication made me sleepy, but I was still alert enough to see the series of emotions that filled Nathan’s handsome face.The face that I want to come back to. The face I want to see every day for as long as possible.I don’t know what he plans to do, but I know for sure that I don’t want our marriage to end.Not right now and certainly not nine months from now. I want to stay married to him. I want us to exchange vows again, but this time, I want us to do it right in front of the people we care about.I want to have a wedding party—nothing huge, just something small and intimate

NathanChelsea hid behind me as soon as the doctors walked in. It was extremely cute how her first thought was to hide behind me, and I would have laughed a little if the situation wasn’t very serious, but I knew it was just like I knew she didn’t hide because the doctors walked in on us kissing.“Mrs. Montague, we can’t talk to you from behind your husband. You are the main character here, so we would very much like to see your face.”The friendly neurosurgeon said to Chelsea, and she slowly showed her face from behind me, and the doctor reintroduced himself and his whole team.Chelsea got on the bed for the regular check, and I stood by her side through it all.I listened to him go over some of the conversation we already had and some new ones which were relevant for the whole procedure.“A team will be here to transport you to the surgery area in a couple of hours, and we will meet you there.”The surgeon told us after the regular check was over.“Thank you.”I told them, and Chels

Chelsea“Where is my husband?”I asked when I walked into the living room of the VVIP unit I was in and found Matthew with his girlfriend, but no sign of Nathan, who I thought would be with them.“Oh, she only cares about her husband now.”I rolled my eyes at Matthew’s response and smiled at Dorathy who stood up and hugged me.“It’s nice to meet you.”She told me.“We have met before.”I reminded her. She pulled out of the hug and smiled.“I know, but the last time we met, I wasn’t your friend’s girlfriend.”I smiled at her response.“You are right. I am happy for you two.”I told her and looked around again, wondering where Nathan could have gone.“I told him to call his friend. I told him he needed a friend for when you go into surgery.”Dorathy revealed, and I realized how selfish I had been for not caring enough about Nathan’s well-being.The man sobbed in my arms. Of course, he isn’t okay, and he needs a friend.“I feel terrible for not realizing he needs someone.”I said, and Do

NathanI was able to quickly brush my teeth and splash water on my face before Matthew arrived with my cousin.“You look terrible.”Matthew commented when he saw me. I glared at him and fully ignored his words.Of course, I look terrible. I didn’t sleep last night, and in a few hours, I have to send my wife to a scary place.How would I look good? It wasn’t just me in a terrible place; Joan walked out of the room she shared with Claudia, and she looked very sad compared to yesterday. She looked like she didn’t sleep at all last night. She took one look at the three of us and walked back into the room she came out of without saying anything to us.The only person who looked really good was my cousin, and she smiled at me as she approached me for a warm hug.“Dorathy.”I whispered and leaned into her hug.“It’s okay, darling; she will be fine.”She assured me, patting my back. I fought the urge to cry again and nodded at her words. I pulled out of the hug and smiled at her.“I am glad y

Nathan“So, you didn’t think I was cold-hearted and unfit to be her husband?”She shook her head.“I never thought you were cold-hearted. I don’t believe rumours. I believe what I see in a person; I am a good judge of character, and I saw through the cold-hearted façade. If you talk to your wife, you would know that even when you were being very distant, I still believed you had some good in you.”Her words surprised me.“Thank you.”She laughed, and this time, there was no sadness.“For the record, I am not cold-hearted unless it comes to business. You have to be strict to run a successful business.”“I know that, and I have seen enough today to know that I was right about you, and I am glad that I was right. You could have left her when you found out, but you didn’t, and that pretty much confirms everything I thought about you.”“I wish I had done things differently.”I lamented, twisting the cigarette in my hand.“You wish you had a time machine.”She repeated my earlier words, and

NathanI couldn’t sleep.I stayed awake long after Chelsea fell asleep in my arms. I couldn’t stop staring at her and wishing things were different.I couldn’t stop wishing that I would wake up and realize this was all just a nightmare and that she wasn’t sick at all.If only this were a dream, I would have rushed to her as soon as I woke up and hugged her close with tears streaming down my eyes, but sadly, it wasn’t a dream.I knew it wasn’t a dream because I had pinched myself so many times to wake myself up, and all I did was inflict pain on myself.The pain didn’t matter to me.Nothing else really mattered to me except the woman softly snoring in my arms. I know I told her everything would be fine, but the fear of losing her clawed a hole in my heart, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t close that hole of fear, and it only got deeper as the new day grew closer.I had already spoken to the doctor, and he assured me that they would do their best for her, but their best wasn’t
