Chapter: A ChildChapter 129: A Child Three weeks later… The family has been discharged from the hospital, and now it’s time to return home. “It’s finally great to be able to return home,” Kendell releases a broad smile and looks up at her mom, who stood behind. “Right? I really wished to go home right away because I really don’t like the amount of people being rushed here daily. It breaks my heart,” Ken, who was standing next to her, chipped in with a sad scowl. “Honestly, it breaks my heart so badly that I wish to cry whenever I see such,” Kendell backed her brother.“Gosh! They talk like they have existed for ages,” Sofia, who stood not far from Rose, said to her in a surprised tone, and the entire room erupted in laughter. “You haven’t even seen anything; sometimes I wonder if they are really kids because they act so mature, and let’s not even talk about the way they talk,” Rose laughed.“I have already seen everything that is needed to be seen. The few days I have spent with them are enough

Chapter: A Family Chat Chapter 128: A Family Chat “But I hope you are not in serious pain?” Ken asked, his voice laced with a concerned tone. “No, I am fine,” Derek lied, so his son would worry less.“Ok, I am glad you are, Dad,” Ken said with a broad smile, and Derek smiled back. “So, when are we returning home?” Kendell asked, desperation evident in her eyes.“It’s obvious you are tired of this place already,” Rose giggled, seeing the desperation in her daughter’s eyes. “Yes, Mom, I am so tired of this place and want to go home already,” Kendell replied.“Well, I seriously don’t know when the doctor would be discharging us, so I can’t answer that question,” Rose answered kindly, and Kendell pouted. “Ouch! I really wanted to go home,” she said, pushing her lips out and rendering her face in a sad scorn.“Don’t act like a baby now; you are a big girl,” Ken interrupted, already having enough of his sister’s silly behavior. Kendell gave him a deadly glare and hissed, “I am not acting like a baby; I just mis

Chapter: I Miss YouChapter 127: I Miss YouRose yawned and stretched tiredly on the bed. She rubbed her eyes with her hands and sat up from the bed. Her eyes quickly moved to the wall clock, and she flashed up from the bed immediately. She took a quick glance at her husband and daughter, who were still sleeping, before she rushed out of the ward.Outside the ward, she rushed to the surgery room, where she met the doctor standing outside the room, accessing a file in his hand. “Thank goodness!” the doctor exclaimed on sighting her. “I was looking for your details so I could call, but glad you came at the right time,” the doctor said with a bright smile.“I couldn’t sleep throughout yesterday night, and when I eventually managed to sleep, I couldn’t stop thinking, so as soon as it was daybreak, I hurried over here,” Rose explained hurriedly.“So, can I see them now? You said the surgery was successful,” Rose’s eyes danced around the doctor as she queried.“Yes, ma’am, the surgery was a success,” the doc

Chapter: Be Positive Chapter 126: Be Positive Rose sat on Derek’s bed after keeping her daughter next to her. She gave him a long stare of pity before pulling his hands into hers. “Derek,” she mumbled slowly.“Didn’t I warn you not to go after them? Didn’t I warn you to stay back with us and allow the police to do their job?” she said to her unconscious husband.“What if something happens to you? What if you have died? What would have become of us? Who gave you the right to come into our life and leave again?” She couldn’t hold back her tears this time around.“Your son is having surgery right now, and I am scared. You know I am not strong-hearted; you should have been here to comfort me and assure me that everything would be fine,” she sniffed, the pain hitting deep.“You should have been hale and healthy by now, and not lying unconscious on this hospital bed,” she continued. “So you better wake up now, because I am tired of seeing you in such a situation, because it is eating me up, and it isn’t funny

Chapter: The Surgery Chapter 125: The surgery After what seemed like an eternity to Rose, Sofia and the doctor showed up. Sighting them from afar, she rushed to them and inquired about the results of the test. Her worried eyes darted from her sister to the doctor as she awaited a response. She watched as the doctor’s lips spread into a bright smile before he replied, “They are a match.”“They are?” Rose exclaimed excitedly, and the doctor nodded, a bright smile on his lips. “I am glad I am able to save your son’s life,” Sofia said with a bright smile, and Rose pulled her into a warm hug. “Thanks so much, Sofia. Thank you,” Rose said amidst the hug.“Mom, does this mean that Ken will be fine?” Rose heard and immediately knew it was her daughter. She looked down below her, where the voice erupted, and there, in front of her, stood her daughter, just as she expected. She pushed out a bright smile and bent to her daughter’s level. “Everything is going to be fine now; everything will be perfect now,” she

Chapter: Check Mine Chapter 124: Check Mine The nurses pushed the stretcher into the surgery room; Derek lay weakly on the stretcher, and the officer ran after them.“Please, can you keep him safe? Please protect him,” the officer pleaded with the doctors, his face etched with worry.“We have no guarantee for now, but we will do our best to make sure that nothing happens to him,” one of the nurses replied in a comforting tone.The officer couldn’t respond; he just watched the nurse like a fool.“Ok, you can’t enter here with us, so please just remain outside and pray for him,” the nurse said when they finally got into the surgery room.The officer staggered back and fell weakly onto one of the chairs in front of him. He sat there, confused and unsure of the next thing to do.“I need to inform his wife about this; I really need to,” he muttered after a while, and he wandered off to look for Rose.He asked anyone he came across until he really got to a person who knew her.“Sorry, do you know about any pa
