The Love that Never Really Dies

The next day, when Sasha woke up, she got a whiff of fresh air that came with the new dawn.

I’m alive? I made it!

She was so elated that she wanted to laugh aloud.

However, she quickly realized that darkness was still all she could see. Immediately, her heart was plunged into despair once again.

“Doctor? Doctor?”

“The patient is awake…”

Sasha heard the nurse’s gentle voice as the latter quickly made her way to the bed.

Waving her hands around, she uttered, “Nurse, my eyes… why am I still not able to see with my eyes?”

“Well…”

Before the nurse could continue, a hoarse voice sounded. “It won’t be that fast. This time, our surgery is done mainly to clear the blockage from the vessels in your spine area that lead to the whole body. This is the key to solving your life-threatening condition. Once this is solved, your body will recover, and everything else will be fine.”

Dr. Moore had entered the ward, and after seeing Sasha’s panicked state, he gave her an explanation.

Now I understand.

Sasha heaved a sigh of relief, and her expression softened.

“Thank you, Dr. Moore.”

“Don’t mention it. Anna, please watch over her carefully. If there is any problem, call me.”

Dr. Moore left soon after, presumably to take care of other matters.

Laying on the hospital bed, Sasha sensed that the nurse had come over to remove her peripheral venous catheter. Suddenly, she was overcome with the desire to tell all her loved ones the good news.
