"You are not by yourself."After a bit, Jessica shook her head slowly. "But I can’t go on living like this; I feel stuck.""Jessica, I see that this is hard. But now your body needs all its strength to get better. Once you feel well, we can talk about this more," Jonas said, trying to comfort her."What if I don't have time?" Jessica asked, her eyes starting to fill up. "I don’t know how long I can last in this condition.""Let yourself have a chance to get better. All else can wait," Jonas said, holding her hand. "You are stronger than you think. Don’t let those thoughts mess with your healing process."Jessica went

She made up her mind to head to the hospital quick as she could to clear up all the details about her dad. When she got to the hospital, Jessica went right to a desk to sign in.

Why would Jonas pay for her father's hospital bills? She felt not right, like she had him a thanks.“Is there a way to talk to him” Jessica asked feeling the need to chat with Jonas.“He’s now on work, but you can leave a note here and we will give it to him,” the staff member say.Jessica nodded but her heart felt heavy.

Jessica ached for something that was lost yet still felt remorse when she noticed the cozy vibe creating the aura of the café.
