Chapter 758: Vase II
As promised, Deborah assisted Hera in arranging the flowers in a vase. Although Deborah did nothing but watch, her presence was enough for Hera. All she needed was company—someone to talk to while creating the vase.
Seated around a small, round coffee table, Hera tilted her head to see Deborah across from her.
"What do you think?" Hera eagerly asked for feedback as she placed the last piece of flower in the vase.
Deborah studied it for a moment and genuinely smiled. She shifted her eyes to Hera, amazed at how Hera made the flowers look even more beautiful than they had originally appeared.
’I thought it wouldn’t make a difference, but now that they’re put together, they do look appealing,’ she thought, nodding approvingly at Hera.
"They’re prettier than I expected," she praised gently. "I didn’t know you could make them even prettier."
Hera giggled. "I didn’t know either. It’s just that I thought they’d look pretty in a vase." She slowly turned her head to the window where she used to stare from the bed.
"When I woke up the first time, I always found myself sitting on the bed, staring at that window," she shared, eyes twinkling with sentiments. "And every time, I always thought these flowers would look better if they were together. Somehow, during the days I was confused and lost in my situation, looking at them gave me a little comfort."
Hera slowly set her eyes back to Deborah, smiling softly. "That is why I want to put this vase in Frank’s office. So, even if he’s doing late-night work, he can look at these flowers in hopes they’d give him comfort, just like how they comforted me."
