Arzhel opened his eyes, but he winced faintly when he saw the bright hospital lights above him. Veronica rushed to Arzhel. “Oh my gosh, Arzhel, are you okay?” she said worriedly. Arzhel didn’t react. He was still closing his eyes. I could see that his eyes were tightly shut. I think the light wa
I was watching the nurses as they checked Jessica’s blood pressure when I felt a hand touch my arm. I looked beside me and saw James. He smiled at me, but it didn’t reach his eyes. It was the smile of an emotionally tired person. “It was too late, Analia. I think you need to go home and rest,” he
I glanced at the door. “Doctor,” James said and shook hands with the doctor. Jessica let go of my arms when she heard about the doctor. She rushed to the doctor and held his arms. “Doctor, what happened? How is he? Is he okay now?” she asked nonstop. James gently pulled her away from the doctor
“You really have the audacity?” Veronica sarcastically said. I slowly let go of Arzhel and wiped my tears as I turned around to face her. “Not now, Veronica,” I said, almost out of energy. She sarcastically laughed. “And when would be the right time to scold you?” she asked, irritated and lookin

I didn’t sleep in my own room last night. I lay beside Arriana so I could also monitor her fever. When she woke up the next morning, the first person she looked for was Arzhel. “Mommy, where’s daddy Arzhel?” she asked me using a sad and disappointed tone. She was also pouting a little. I blinked
When she tasted the soup, we both waited for her reaction. She closed her eyes while tasting it. Then she opened them with wide eyes. Her lips started to form a big smile. “This is the best soup ever,” she said, with energy this time. I smiled at my daughter’s reaction. Meanwhile, I saw Arzhel lo
He was busy pouring another shot. I was just looking at him. Not at his hand, but at his face, hair, and jaw. When I looked at his eyes, I saw him already looking at me while drinking the shot of tequila. I looked away right away, which made me look stupid because I looked like someone who was caug
