"It's a good thing that you're still coming back.." the head of the orphanage says as he sips on his coffee one sunny afternoon with the Walton couple seating opposite him.

She looks at the boy who is now looking brand new thanks to Gabrielle's healing hands. His cheeks are even rosy now that he is being given proper care and food. He no longer look as malnourished and "bombed" when they first saw him.He is also interacting and playing with other children now. But most of the time, he is just clinging on his "mama" just like now.Gabrielle kisses his chubby cheek before shrugging her shoulder at the head who is looking and watching the pair of them intently.

Chapter 31

Vincent sits beside Gabrielle who is hopelessly hugging herself in a fetal position- unconscious of how her husband whose hand couldn't leave her shoulder is rattling with the thought that something terrible is wrong with her.He waits anxiously as the doctor reads her temperature and frowns worriedly. The next thing he did was to put the stethoscope on Gabrielle's back and carefully listens to her breathing."I'll have her blood tested Mr. Walton... her fever is too high.""Can you tell me what's happening to her?""Does she have any illness or history?""She has allergies... but nothing I know of that she got sick or something..""Well." the doctor sighs looking at Gabrielle."This might be just a common flu, but we can't be sure until I get the result of her blood test and until she wakes up so I can check up on her how exactly she feels." "She just started screaming about her head being so painful before her nose started to bleed. This afternoon she was just fine. We played a lot

"How do you feel?" That was the first thing she hears as she opens her eyes. She feels the bed waving a little as Vincent adjusts himself to look at her. His arms are sore from holding her in his chest but he doesn't give a care. She'd been shaking in her sleep, murmuring and pushing herself closer to him over and over like begging him to just hold her and take the pain away."Hmm?" He asks as his blue pair of orbs meet her brown pair of dilated eyes before she frovwns and groans. His arm that is under her neck pulls her a little before he embraces her again. Soothing her back as he gently caresses it."Can you sit, baby? You've to eat..." he says with his lips against her burning temples.She's still feverish and he's so damn worried that he feels the urge to carry and run her to the hospital."W-wa-er.." she lets her weight fall on his embrace as she struggles to speak."Hmm?" Vince pushes her again a little before combing her short hair to the back of her ears."W-wa..." she gulp

"I'm very sorry Mr. Walton... but it appears that your wife has more than just a migraine..." the doctor states as he seats beside Gabrielle on her bed. She is immediately sent to the emergency room to do series of tests. The doctor joined them right away with the results in his hand. Gabrielle is now sleeping again with her hand not letting his hand go."What do you mean by that?" Vincent gulps throwing a worried look at Gabrielle."The blood tests show that Mrs. Walton has stage 4 dengue fever.""W-What?!" He stands up making her become restless on the bed when as he did, he pulled her hand that was holding his. Gabby groans obviously awaken by his reaction. She weakly opens her eyes and look at him with a frown. Vincent immediately sits back cupping her beautiful face before leaning down to kiss her forehead."Let's g-go home..." she says so weakly as her burning palm holds his wrist in front of her face."Let's just... go back to the... hotel...""Ssshhh..." was all he can say b
