The nurses got the hint and quickly left the room to give some much-needed space to Zachary and Cynthia.

As for Cynthia, she lay on the bed and quietly looked at Zachary, her eyes full of warmth and tenderness.

“I’ll rest here for a while before leaving so I don’t get nagged at again.” Zachary glanced at Cynthia. “Am I disturbing you?”

“No, it’s fine.” Cynthia gestured. “You can rest as long as you want.”

When they locked eyes, Cynthia blushed and immediately tried to clarify. “What I meant was, to put Grandpa at ease, you can stay here longer… no, I meant, you can stay however long you want… “

The more she tried to explain, the more flustered she got.
