Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen’s POV: 

The caregiver waited for my mother at the hospital gate.

Even as my mother’s back disappeared from my sight, I still didn’t want to leave.I’d never felt that a weekend was very short until this moment.

There were a lot of things I still wanted to do with my mother and tell her.I wanted to catch up with her and take her home, but my sanity told me not to do that.

"Come on.Don’t be so sentimental.You’ll see each other again.A week will pass so quickly, you won’t even notice it!"

Lucy grumped when she couldn’t stand to watch me staring at the hospital gate anymore.She grabbed my hand and pulled me towards her car.

I was pushed into the passenger seat and Lucy got in behind the wheel and drove me home.

"You know what? You look like a mother taking her kid to kindergarten for the first time," Lucy complained.

"You are right.In fact, my mother didn’t want to go back to the hospital.If I didn’t have to work, I would take care of her by myself.I’ll feel better that way," I explained.

The doctor said that my mother was at the stage where her recovery would be aided by being around family.

Unfortunately, I was my mother’s only family and I needed to work.So I compromised by bringing my mother home on weekends and taking her back to the hospital during the weekdays.

"Don’t be sad.Your mother will recover soon,"

Lucy comforted me, patting me on the shoulder.

"Let me tell you the truth.You will soon get tired of living with your mother.She will nag you every day to get married.You can imagine how annoying that is.You’ll soon grow afraid to even go home."

Lucy’s mother occasionally came to New York to stay with her for a few days.

In those days, Lucy usually couldn’t stand her mother’s nagging and came to live with me.

"I don’t mind my mother nagging me to get married at all." I laughed helplessly.

"If she wants me to marry, I’ll find someone." I could find someone who was simple and had nothing to do with Jane.
