Chapter 0248
Rowan.
It’s been three months. Three fucking months since Ava was shot, and she’s yet to wake up. With each month that goes by, everyone is slowly losing hope that she’ll ever wake up.
It’s frustrating as hell, but there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s now beyond anyone’s power.
She was taken off the machine a month after her accident. She didn’t need them to breathe since her
lungs were doing just fine. They even transferred her to a normal room. We all thought she’d come out of the coma then, but it never happened. Two months down the line, and we are still waiting.
“Should I wait for you, Mr. Wood?” my driver asks just before I get out of the car.
“It’s not necessary. I’ll call you when I’m done.”
I get out of the car and walk into the hospital. The staff greets me because I have been a regular visitor
for the past few months.
I just nod my head. I feel the tiredness down to my bones. I haven’t had a moment of peace since that day. Sleep flees from me every single night, and I’m left either staring at the ceiling all night or working.
Due to the circumstances, Noah is back to living with me. He’s here every day after school. Visiting his mother and sister. I see the toll everything is taking on him, but I know it’ll only be better when Ava and Iris leave the hospital.
I head first to see Iris before seeing Ava. That little girl has won my heart these past few months. Her resilience and strength to overcome what was thrown at her remind me of her mother.
“You’re here, Rowan, let me just get our little princess ready,” Mary says as she busies herself.
Iris was taken out of the incubator a week ago. The doctors said that she was now healthy and out of danger. Since she had reached the nine–month milestone, there was no need for her to remain there.
Minutes later, Mary is handing Iris over to me.
“Hey princess, How are you doing today?” I ask her with a smile.
I hold her tiny form in my chest and rock her back and forth. She doesn’t cry; she just stares at me in fascination. She looked like Ava, but her blue eyes were Ethan’s. She’s definitely going to be a knockout
da
I run my finger down her cheek, and she grips it in a tight hold. I smile at that. She’s become the highlight of my day, a part from Noah. She may not be my biological daughter, but in my heart, she was. Nothing can change that.
