Chapter 0413

Gently, I knocked on Susie’s door. It was already partially opened. When I knocked, the door pushed farther inward. Susie was resting in bed. Nicholas was standing beside the bed, speaking with her. I had just watched the doctor leave before I knocked.

Susie saw me and waved me closer. As I followed her direction, I noticed she was visibly upset. Her face was red and splotchy. There were tear stains down her cheeks. She was still crying.

With him gone, I took his place at Susie’s side. With her crying like she was, it still felt too far, so I stepped closer until I was leaning on the bed.

“I’ll speak with Bridget again,” I said. “I’ll absolutely insist that she change our parts. Susie, I’m so sorry that I didn’t fight harder. I never should have made you go up there.”

Susie shook her head.

When she didn’t speak, I continued, “I promise that we’ll find a way to protect you from your stage fright. I’ll beg Bridget if I have to. Surely she’ll be able to see
