She pursed her lips and set aside her sketchbook, silently watching him on the hospital bed, Would she miss him like this?
And what about him? How long would it take for him to find someone he could love?
WA She was afraid of her future jealousy, which could ruin their present happiness. She was afraid that he loved Grace too much and would never love her, Actuallyâ¦she was really afraid of a lot of things in this relationship.
Butâ¦was it really going to end like this? Valda Thellerâs hand couldnât help but stroke Brian Hartâs cheek, feeling his warmth in her palm.
âBrian Hart, can I really do this?â She murmured, asking him and herself.
Just then, Brian Hartâs brow furrowed and he shook his head from side to side, looking uneasy. âValda Thellerâ¦donâtâ¦â
Valda Theller was taken aback. Was he having a nightmare? And he dreamed of her?
Then she saw his forehead break out in a thin laver of sweat, and âBrian Hart?â she shouted.
But he remained asleep, murmuring, âDonât donât. Valda Theller..you canât, absolutely canâtâ¦â
Valda Theller frowned. What did he dream of? What did she do in his dream that made him say âabsolutely canât?
But in his current condition, he might have a fever. The doctor had warned her to be especially careful about whether he had a fever.
Thinking of this, Valda Theller quickly pressed the nurse button next to the bed and waited for the nurse to come.
But just as Valda Theller pressed the button, Brian Hart, who had been closing his eyes, suddenly opened them and looked at her with his dark eyes.
âYouâ¦youâre awake?â Valda Theller was stunned. âYou seem to have a fever. Iâve pressed the nurse button and the nurse will be here soonâ¦â
Before she could finish her sentence, he sat up suddenly and hugged her tightly.
ââ¦Brian Hart?â Valda Theller was surprised.
âValda Theller!â he urgently called her name. âYou canâtâ¦you canât jump downâ¦absolutely canât!â
She was confused. What was he talking about? Jump where?
âYouâ¦you let go first, Iâ¦Iâm not going to jump anywhere,â she shouted, but didnât dare to struggle easily, afraid of hurting his wound.
But his arms tightened around her, making it harder for her to breathe, and his urgent voice kept calling her name, as if he was afraid of something.
Even this embrace was trembling, because his body was shaking.
