My little darling got a fever of 104.0°F. Rattled, I rushed to pick her up and carried her down to the car. I was quick to gather important stuff and we drove off. I did not care if I’m only in my slippers as my mind was in turmoil thinking that my daughter is burning hot and sick. Although my hands were shaking, I managed to pull over in front of the hospital’s emergency section. We were accommodated by the staff who brought Catie into a room instantly. While a doctor was checking her vitals, she weakly opened her eyes. When she realized a stranger was doing something to her, she cried. I hushed and encouraged her that it was okay and that I won’t leave her alone. I noticed red rashes all over her body as well as her dry cracked lips. Catie was given medicine but her temperature did not subside after half an hour. No changes were observed and the doctor on duty decided to do blood and other tests. I couldn’t understand everything that he said because I was deeply anxious. It was an

True to his words, Denver arranged our transfer to Penn State swiftly. He requested a suite room with a spare large bed for us to sleep in while we are in the hospital. With the kind of disease Catie had acquired, we were advised that we would probably stay for around 6 to 8 weeks attending to our little angel's progress. It was a hell of a stay but I'm willing to endure as long as Catie survives. I told Denver that a normal room will do but he insisted on the most expensive for us to have a comfortable stay. I'm aware he could pay for it even if we stay for a year, but for me, it wasn't necessary. A simple room is fine. However, he always use Catie as his bullet shield, and all he wanted was for her to have the best and most convenient stay in the hospital. I let him because arguing was of no use when it comes to Catie. "Go and take a rest. I'll watch over her," Denver pulled me closer to the bed two meters away from Catie's. My little girl was so reddish sleeping in her new spacio

"Denver, what made you think that I don't want to move in with you?" I flashed a meaningful smile at him. "We love to," His eyes were explicitly astonished hearing it from me. "Are you sure?" he cooed with deep brows. He thought I was reluctant about the idea. I grasped that Catie needed a wide and refreshing environment while recuperating from her illness. With Denver's proposal, his place is the most appropriate location for her stay. I wasn't thinking that my house is not good for her but with Denver, it's the best. As I always say, I wanted the best for my daughter. "Baby, you have no idea how much you made me happy," his face was all printed in elation. He told me that he couldn't wait for us to live under one roof again... with Catie. When he seemed to be satisfied with our agreement, he went on to his next agenda. "If you want to just stay in our house and tend to Catie, you can leave your job," he suggested carefully but this time, in a calmer manner. He was trying to say t

“Are… are… you sure?” my words fumbled. I drew my brows in disbelief. I never saw it coming.He flashed an assuming smile. “Never been sure,” and picked it out of the box. Directly, he slid it carefully into my ring finger. No words could describe how splendid the hoop was in me. Thankfully, it fitted well like it was measured intently just for me.“This is exquisite,” I muttered amazingly as an indication of saying yes.I stared intently at the ring in astonishment. I was explicitly delighted by his sudden desire for us to get married. He told me he made it customized clearly for my taste. It was a simple huge diamond stone with two smaller ones on either side.After I broke up with him in the past, I never imagined getting a marriage proposal anymore. I made up my mind to live alone without any man beside me to impose broken promises over and over again. Regardless of the entire plan I set for myself, God really has his ways to give us the best that we deserve.“Thank you,” He pulle

Miss Vera was delighted to see me in the office early Monday morning. Although it wasn't a surprise because I notified her of my return, still, elation was visible on her face. "Ciara, It is so nice to know your daughter recovered speedily," unusual but she was smiling in good spirits. I thanked her for understanding my situation and letting me take off for two weeks. She discussed everything that occurred in our department and it thrilled me to learn that we got quite a number of new clients under our company. She told me not to worry about it because she could certainly handle them even if I took more days of leave to attend to my daughter's needs. Since Catie was all good and having Lea as an efficient help, not to mention Denver made it all easier for me, I assured her that taking additional off is not necessary."Mr. Baker was pleased for completing his requirements ahead of schedule," She was flipping some of the piled documents on her table. When she found what she was lookin
