122 After (1/2)
Kim finally woke up by 10 PM. Carl was resting his head just beside her. As she moved, she winced in pain. The anesthesia had worn off. Carl immediately got up, ”Are you okay?” He asked, hovering around her, he wasn't sure where to touch. ”Does it hurt a lot? Should I call the doctor?”
There was a sheen of sweat on his face and his hands shook. His nervousness could not be hidden. Seeing him so worried, Kim forgot about her pain as she smiled at him, ”It's fine, sit down.”
He paused for a few seconds before sitting down, ”You must tell me if it hurts.”
She nodded at him.
Remembering what had transpired earlier, she lowered her head, ”Madam George…”
”She's fine.”
She let out the breath she was holding. ”That's good.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
”Yeah.” He muttered.
”You should rest, don't think about anything, when you're better, I'll take you to her.”
At that moment she was shot, she had made the decision to live in the moment. She could have easily died without experiencing the good things in life because of her fears. Whether warranted or unwarranted, it did not matter, she should take what she wanted, her eyes met his, be with who she wanted.
Yes.. her near death experience gave her the courage to move forward. She could not continue to wallow in self-pity, denial and fear. Life, though the longest thing you do, was pretty short.
”Thank you.” She smiled at him.
