Let's Get Married

Shocked by his question, Lily goes blank. This topic is too sensitive and as per what she did before, she is afraid that…

Fortunately, she doesn’t look well during this whole time; otherwise it is only a matter of time before Rex detects her nervousness. She does some calculation in her mind and answers, “At the end of this month. Still couples of days away.”

“How many days?”

“I can’t say for sure. Sometimes it is earlier and sometimes later.” Lily doesn’t want him asking further questions and changes the topic, “Why? Are you afraid that I may hurt?”

“No.” Rex doesn’t know much about such stuff but something is telling him that Lily’s reaction is aberrant. He holds her cold hands and says, “Just go to the hospital with me.”

“I already told you I was fine.” Lily tries to break loose but fails, “It is true. I am not lying to you.”

Among all the other lies she ever came up with in her life, this one is the best and most natural one. Maybe it is the baby who gives her the courage.

“Let’s do a full examination so that I can be reassured.” Rex says and begins dragging her.

Lily frowns and tries to drag her hand back, saying “Rex, I will need an official approval for visiting hospital. Besides, the prison transporter is right outside waiting for me. How do you expect that I can get away without being noticed?”

“I can make some call…”

“You can make some call?” Lily stops him right there and though she is almost on the verge of a confession, still, she says in a tough tone, “I am already convicted of a murder, which makes it hard enough for me to be bailed. Therefore, I need to behave well instead of keeping pulling strings now and then.”

Rex doesn’t let her go but says nothing, as if he were pondering over something.

Feeling so intense that she almost dares not to breathe, Lily looks down and shakes their hands together, saying, “If you still can’t relax over it, then I will submit my application today and go to the hospital tomorrow.”
