Love Unspoken

He pressed her trembling shoulders with both hands and frowned, asking, "What's wrong?"

Quinn was coughing so violently that her entire face was scrunched up, leaving her no time to respond to him.

Because of the coughing, her pale little face gradually turned red.

Feeling something rising in her throat, she quickly rushed into the bathroom.

After the bathroom door was shut, she could no longer suppress what was overflowing from her throat. She leaned over the sink and vomited.

Blood splattered in the sink, like red plum blossoms blooming in the snow, very glaring.

Alexander knocked on the door outside.

She hurriedly turned on the faucet and washed away the blood. Then she wiped the blood off her lips with her hand and frantically cleaned up the remaining bloodstains. She thought, 'I can't let anyone know, or I won't be able to leave the hospital.'

The bathroom door suddenly swung open, startling her.

She nervously looked at Alexander, whose gaze swept around the bathroom before finally landing on her face.

"Why did you close the door?"Alexander questioned.

Quinn gripped the sink with both hands and stammered, "I needed to use the bathroom."

His gaze wandered back and forth on her face as if trying to see through her.

She tensed up, afraid he would ask something.

But he didn't say much. He withdrew his gaze and closed the bathroom door.

Quinn patted her chest and let out a long breath.

'I just want to be discharged, to go home, to see my parents. Once I see them, I will definitely cooperate with the treatment!' she thought.

Because every time she fell asleep, she would have that dream, dreaming of the major fire, dreaming of her mom carrying her and running in the fire. She looked at herself in the mirror, her gaze gradually becoming resolute.

'I have to go home!'

Quinn squatted in the bathroom for a while before opening the door and going out.

Alexander was standing at the door waiting for her, "Are you feeling better now?"Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

She nodded. As she looked up, she saw a few doctors coming in at the door, and she instinctively tightened her grip on the hem of her clothes. The doctors were going to examine her again, and she instinctively resisted.

And this time, it wasn't just a simple check of her heartbeat; they were going out for a comprehensive examination.

Alexander held her hand, comforting her, "It'll be over soon, and it won't hurt."

She looked up at him and asked, "When can I be discharged?"

"Didn't the doctor tell you? A few more days of observation."

Quinn lowered her head and silently followed the doctors into the CT room. After that, she had several more tests and had a vial of blood drawn.

She had never suffered such grievances before. These past two days, every time she opened her eyes, she was being poked here or there. Now, she was scared just seeing those needle tips. After the blood draw, she sat on the bench, shedding tears.

Alexander held a cotton swab in one hand, and with the other, he wiped away her tears.

"There, there, don't cry. When you get better, I'll take you to eat something delicious." Quinn bit her lip, her eyes welling up with tears as she looked at him. "I miss my mom."

Alexander paused slightly. He bent down, looking at Quinn with a complex and inscrutable expression.

After a moment, he continued to wipe her tears and said softly, "You'll see her as soon as you're discharged. But if you don't cooperate with the doctors and can't get discharged, you won't be able to see them." Upon hearing this, Quinn cried even harder.

The doctor beside them watched in amazement. Although Quinn no longer looked like a child, her delicate face showing such a pitiful expression was not out of place at all.

Instead, it made people feel pity for her. Even the doctor who had just given her the injection felt he had been too rough. He really shouldn't have been!

Fortunately, there weren't many people around, so they let Quinn sit inside.

It took Alexander about ten minutes to comfort her until her crying gradually subsided. However, her eyes were red-rimmed, as if she had suffered a great grievance. "When will the test results be out?" Alexander asked.
