1/5 Chapter 3 + 5 Points You must be happy that Luke Crawford can see again , right ? He used to be so fond of you , always bringing you snacks and toys whenever he visited .
He was just been really busy lately , so he hadnt been here for a long time .
And he recently got engaged to Bella White , my very beautiful college classmate .
Do you remember her ? I forced a pale smile and gazed at Daniels perpetually peaceful face .
Gently , I reached out and stroked his head .
His hair had been shaved off and hadnt grown back much yet .
A pang of sadness hit me .
Daniel used to have thick , shiny black hair that always seemed so full of life , but now , he could only lie here day after day, weak and silent .

Lets face life together , okay ? I kept talking to Daniel , sharing bits and pieces of my thoughts , and I tucked him in properly before leaving the room .
To my surprise , I ran into an old acquaintance , Leo Davis , right outside the room .
Sylvia ? His eyes showed a trace of surprise upon seeing me .
Looking at him in his white coat , I mustered a smile and said , Leo Davis , congratulations on achieving your dream .
I knew he had always wanted to become a doctor .

Im working in the cardiothoracic department upstairs .
I heard Daniel was here and came to check on him .
You dont look so well .
I gently rubbed my stomach , which was faintly aching , and shook my head .
I skipped breakfast this morning probably just hungry .
Its nothing .
Sylvia … He seemed like he wanted to say more , but a nurse called for him at that moment .
I shook my head and said , Im fine .
You go ahead , I need to leave anyway .
Lets catch up another time .
I turned away hastily , but Leo Davis grabbed my arm .
He hesitated for a moment , his eyes full of concern as he looked at me .
4/5 Chapter 3 +5 Ports Sylvia , I heard youve been with Luke Crawford all these years ? I looked at the obvious concern in his eyes and felt a pang of pain in my heart .
Yes , I replied with a faint , bitter smile .
I got what I wanted .
