We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 5

I find myself standing at the foot of the stranger’s bed in the wee hours of the morning. I

can’t sleep, and so sneaking away from my mate will probably get me in some hot water,

but I have ways of cooling it down. I always live by the saying ‘It’s easier to ask for

forgiveness than it is to ask for permission’. Besides, he should know me by now, and I

did warn him last night that I would be coming here myself. It’s not my fault he’s a sound

sleeper and didn’t hear me tip toeing out the door.

As for the male asleep in the bed in front of me, it’s hard to see his features because

writing stuff down.

“Yeah, I couldn’t sleep, so I figured I would mosey on over. I see that you were able to

get his heartrate back up.”

“Yes! That’s exactly what I was hoping for when placing him in the coma. If all his vitals

do well throughout the day, I will bring him back. You most likely won’t get any answers

until tomorrow at the earliest, and that is only if he comes to on his own as well.”

Well s*it, I think to myself, how am I supposed to wait a whole day to get the answers

that I’m looking for? Something nags at me, though, almost like a little voice telling me to
