569 Everything Went Well

Day Sixty-Four...

~~~***~~~

[ At Greenbelt District Hospital... ]

Dave finally regained consciousness. And the first thing he saw was Abigail's sleeping figure. She was leaning her head on the edge of his bed. She drifted off to sleep because she stayed up all night just watching over him.

Dave couldn't believe that he was seeing Abigail. He thought he would never see her again. Did he survive? Was this a dream or perhaps, this was heaven? He lifted his arm to pinch his cheek. Oh! I'm not dreaming.'

He looked at her intently. He reached out to touch and caress her face only to retract his hand once again. He hesitated because he felt like he didn't deserve to touch her after what happened between Karina and him.

Dave was still clueless that Jane already fixed his problem. She already helped him prove his innocence. Aside from that, Jane was also the one who healed him. She sacrificed her remaining seven days just to save him.

'I...I don't know how to face Abigail. Asking for forgiveness is not enough to ease her pain. I know she might be thinking that I betrayed her..: Sadness could be seen in his eyes as he stared at her.

'Abi... My love...' Dave's eyes became teary. He had the urge to hug and kiss her... but his guilt was stopping him to do so. What should I tell him? Even if I was drugged, I don't want to make excuses for my action. The fact that I hurt her won't change"

Dave's heart felt so heavy. The pain in his heart was incomparable to a gunshot wound. 'It hurts more than a gunshot wound; Dave thought to himself.

Dave was still hesitant to touch her when Abigail moved. Then she slowly opened her eyes. Her sleepiness disappeared as soon as she met Dave's gaze. He is now awake!

"Dave!" Abigail immediately stood up and held his shoulders. "How do you feel? Are you still hurt somewhere? Do you want me to call the doctor for you?"

Dave winced a little when Abigail accidentally touched his wounded shoulder. But since it was Abigail, he would endure the pain just for her. He just smiled at her faintly. He didn't expect that Abigail would still care about him. He could see her concern. Her worry was evident on her face.

"Okay. I know what you feel. But the most important thing is... we already cleared our misunderstanding." Abigail hugged him. 'You scared me. I thought you were going to leave me. I thought you would never wake up. But a miracle happens." She buried her face in the nook of his neck. She kept hugging him, not letting him go.

Dave's expression softened. The thorn in his heart disappeared. He felt relieved now. Who would have thought that he would be able to redeem himself? He already lost hope. He accepted his fate. But things suddenly went well for both of them. All thanks to Jane.

"You promised me that you wouldn't leave me alone. I can't live without you." Abigail tightened her grip on Dave's body. She might have forgotten that Dave underwent surgery and his gunshot wounds were still fresh. She immediately drew back when she heard Dave groan a little.

"I'm sorry! I forgot you were hurt' Abigail hit her head.

Dave just let out a soft chuckle. "No. I'm fine. Your hugs and kisses are my best medicine. Come here. Don't let me go." Dave opened his arms wide, inviting her for another hug. nOvelnext.com

Abigail just gave him a peck on his lips but she stopped hugging him. His chest and his shoulder were injured and were wrapped in a bandage. "I don't want your stitches to open up. I'll give you more hugs when you recover. So you must recover quickly!"

Another chuckle escaped his mouth. "Aye, Ma'am! I'll get better soon! Especially now... you and I have reconciled."

Abigail bobbed her head frantically. She gave him another kiss. This time it lasted for several seconds. It was a passionate kiss, letting him know how much she loved him. Dave responded to her with the same passion. He missed this woman so much. He thought he wouldn't be able to kiss her again.

'I'm going to propose to her soon. I can't let this woman go. I should marry her. I can't afford to lose her. I shall make her mine officially; Dave thought to himself as he enjoyed their kisses.

After satiating their yearning for each other, the two finally broke the kiss. "Abi... I love you so much... No one can measure my love for you.'

Abigail's forehead rested on his. She smiled sweetly when she heard those words from Dave. "You know that I feel the same way. My love for you will never change. If I ever forget you again, please... fight for me. Make me remember you. Don't let other men replace you in my heart.' Abigail reminded him. She didn't want to repeat what happened between Nathan and her.

Dave nodded his head, caressing her right cheek. "I will fight for you and for our love. I promise."

'Thanks, Lover

"By the way, where is your sister? I want to thank her personally. She did a lot of work to prove my innocence. I can't even figure out how she managed to get their confession." Dave searched for Jane as he wondered how she did those things. "Oh right! I haven't seen her... I wonder where she is right now."
