Let's Get Married

Lily has been rushing to the hospital after she hung up on Rex. Luckily there is no traffic jam. She arrives in the hospital half an hour later.

She takes the elevator and arrives at the ward.

Lily is too anxious to see her child that she forget to knock. She pushes the door open and enters the ward right away.

From her direction, she could see there are two persons in the room. The child is sitting on the bed on drips while the adult is sitting beside the bed accompanying the child. Both of their eyes are red.

Lily quickly walks towards Adair. She is panting under her breathe. It is obvious how anxious she is walking to the ward.

Rex keeps a calm face. His perfectly sculptured face seems fairer under the reflection of the white sheet from the bed. His hair is neatly groomed. Once she enters the room, his dark eyes follow her as she moves. “You’re here.”

Adair smiles widely when he sees Lily. He calls Lily loudly, “Mommy!”

Lily doesn’t want to make things messed in front of the child. She holds her anger and clenches her fists. She then turns to Adair to check on him, “What’s wrong? Are you hurt?”

Adair sees the concern and anxious look on Lily’s face, he knows he is in fault, “Uncle Karl said I overate and had indigestion.”

“Didn’t mommy told you to eat slowly and not to have too many snacks? You have a weak stomach. See, this is the cost of not listening.” She scolds him out of concern and worries. Lily hasn’t seen Adair for two days, which is why she is worrying sickly.

Adair pouts his lips, “I’m sorry, mommy.”

Lily feels soft-hearted looking at his pitiful look. She takes a deep breath, thinking that there’s no use to be mad at him now since he is already sick.
