Chapter 208: Devastated
Rose woke up feeling uncomfortable; her eyes felt heavy and puffy as if her eyelashes were tangled. She can feel her throat hurt when she swallows. With difficulty, she got up and sat on the edge of the bed, massaging her sore forehead.
She didn’t see Evan in the room. She thought Evan was in the bathroom right now but didn’t hear any sound from there.
The moment her eyes looked at her watch, she felt her heart tighten again. They still have 4 hours to land in Fort City, the Capital City of Astington country. For Rose, 4 hours felt like forever. She can’t wait to know about her mother’s condition.
Since boarding this jet, all Rose did was cry, sleep, cry, sleep, and so on. She can’t do anything else; she is not even interested in eating or talking. Not a bit of food could enter Rose’s body if Evan didn’t force her. It was as if her body was just an empty shell, her mind only focused on her mother.
She doesn’t know how her mother is now!? Has the Godly doctor Evan said to her reached the capital? She wanted to know everything.
But for now, she can’t do anything. They are still in the air. However, in her heart, she never stopped praying for her mother to stay alive until the doctor arrived. Until she and Evan arrive at the hospital. Losing her mother for the second time would be a massive blow to her. She can’t let that happen. If God decides to take her mother’s life this time, she will be devastated.
Countless terrible images that happened to her mother did not stop appearing in her mind. The images tormented her, making her head hurt, and her vision spin. She closed her eyes as she buried her head between her knees. Her eyes glazed over. She couldn’t hold back her tears anymore, and her breath felt short.
"M-Mom... please wait for me, huh! Don’t leave me alone again in this scary world. I need you to stay alive by my side...."
Rose didn’t realize how long she had buried her head between her knees, but when she heard Evan’s words, she seemed to be pulled out of the dark puddle of her thoughts.
"Wife, tell me about your condition, please...." Evan’s voice sounded so close to her ears, and she could feel his big warm hand gently caressing her back. She slowly lifted her head to meet his bright blue eyes looking at her. "Why are you crying again?" He knelt in front of her and wiped the traces of tears running down her cheeks.
Evan’s heart aches just looking at how miserable his wife is now. Her bright hazel eyes hadn’t been seen since they left Tuscany. Her eyes felt empty. He can see and feel how devastated his wife is right now.
Didn’t hear Rose say anything, Evan asked again. "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat or drink warm food? I can ask someone to make it for you?"
