Day Forty...

[ At Stephen's Place... ]

Stephen and Cherry were so focused on taking care of Phantomflake. Stephen's father, Dr. Zhao, was closely monitoring Phantomflake's condition. Aside from the unexpected marks appearing on Phantomflake's body, everything was normal.

"I have good news for both of you. Can you see these lines? Her brain wave activity is very active. She will likely wake up soon. I'm very positive about this. Her condition improved a lot." Dr. Zhao shared this piece of good news with them. Both Cherry and Stephen were delighted to hear this.

"Thanks, Dad. What should we do?" Stephen asked his father.

"I can't explain the huge improvement in her health. But I think Cherry's presence is a big help. Just continue talking to her. Let her feel that she is not alone. Our patient is keep on fighting for her life. At least, she is not brain-dead. There is a high possibility that she will regain consciousness."

Cherry bobbed her head, her eyes getting misty. She felt so happy and thankful. "I will never get tired. I will always be here for her."

Dr. Zhao patted her shoulder. "She is so lucky to have a friend like you. Be more patient. She will eventually wake up."

"I will lower the dosage of her medicine. We don't want to ruin her kidney and her liver once she wakes up. I will come again the next day. If anything unusual happens, just inform me immediately."

"Okay, Dad. I got it." Stephen also felt relieved.

"I will write a new prescription for her. I will leave it on your table." Dr. Zhao said goodbye to Cherry and his son.

Cherry and Stephen were left in Phantomflake's ward.

"How do you feel?" Stephen softly asked Cherry but his eyes were fixed on Phantomflake.

"I feel like a heavy burden has been lifted off my chest. I can't wait to see her open her eyes." Cherry grabbed Phantomflake's hand. It felt so warm as compared to before.

"How about you?" Cherry asked Stephen back. She looked at him, assessing his facial expression. She could see so many emotions in his eyes.New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

The tap-tap sound of the keyboard reverberated inside Stephen's office. All her attention was focused on the screen. Cherry began to use another set of algorithms as she ran a command. The command prompt was to find any documents related to Jane Frost. The program she used began scanning the storage of the computer, looking for the documents containing the keywords: Jane Frost.

After twenty minutes, one folder popped up on the screen. "Jesus! It's here! I finally found something!"

Cherry clicked the folder but it was locked. The file was asking for another passcode. The folder was a restricted file.

"Damn! Stephen is a meticulous one!" Cherry lamented.

She tried to crack the passcode once again. After three attempts, Cherry was able to open the folder.

"YES!!!" Cherry punched the air, rejoicing.

Blowing on her hands, she clicked the folder, two files could be seen on the screen. One pdf file and one image. Cherry clicked the image first. She was confused for several seconds upon seeing the enlarged photo.

"What the hell is this?" Cherry mumbled, her mind trying to absorb what was on the screen. "This looks like... an ultrasound photo of a child..."

Cherry didn't know why but her heart began to race. She had a nagging feeling about this. Without further ado, Cherry clicked the pdf file. Her eyes scanned the document, reading what was written on it.

Cherry felt like her heart stopped beating for a moment when she realized what she was reading. "OH, MY GOD! This can't be! How could this happen?!"

The file on the screen was a medical record of Jane Frost's pregnancy. According to the medical clearance, Jane aka Phantomflake was pregnant!

Cherry covered her mouth while shaking her head vehemently. She read the file over and over again. She thought she just misread it. But no! It was Phantomflake's name, written on the document.

'No way.... This can't be. Sister Phantom... got pregnant? How? When? Who is the father?' Cherry couldn't explain what she was feeling at this moment. Her mind was screaming, her heart was drumming, her body was trembling and her energy was drained. She was shocked beyond belief!

Cherry smacked her face twice, making sure that she was not dreaming. "Oh, No! This is real!" She gasped once more.

"Shit! Is this real?" She repeated.

"If this is real, then where is her child? What happened to her child? Who is the father? Don't tell me... it's Dr. Stephen?"
