Chapter 210: Seeing the Light
Mu Lan was wearing a beautiful white wedding dress with a flowing skirt. She was sitting on a swing, decorated with beautiful flowers. A tall man in a dark suit was standing behind her and staring at her while she looked back with an upturned face. He pushed the swing and she was full of laughter as she flew into the air, her flowing veil and skirt rustled and danced in the strong breeze.
The swing was coming back to where the man was. When she looked back and was about to touch his face, she woke up.
It was another dream. Who was the man? Was he the father of her child? Was the scene from their wedding? His face was always a blur.
Mu Lan opened her eyes and a blurry splash of white met her gaze. She closed her eyes and opened them again. The white ceiling still appeared blurry. She blinked a few times then she focused her eyes on the ceiling.
She could see! After five months after the accident, she could finally see. She placed her two palms on her baby bump and she felt that baby kicked her. She felt elated and she giggled. It was early in the morning and rays of the sun seeped through the curtain.
"Baby, I can see. I will now be able to see your great-grandpa and your uncles." Mu Lan excitedly stood from her bed. Auntie Wan hurriedly went to her bed to assist her.
"Auntie Wan, you don’t need to assist me. I can already see." Mu Lan was grinning while Auntie Wan covered her mouth with her hands.
"Miss, you can see!" She exclaimed. Her eyes reddened. She was truly happy for her young Miss.
Mu Lan approached the full-length mirror installed on the wall beside a door. She was wearing a white cotton night dress that was shirred under her bust and reached below her knees. She turned sideways to look at how big her bump was. She was now entering her third trimester. Three months more and she would be seeing her baby girl.
