Her blood-stained hand gently caressed Skyler Robins’ cheek, her fingers trembling uncontrollably. The wind blew relentlessly, chilling her to the bone.
But Shirley Wilson was more concerned about Skyler Robins’ condition. She took off her white down jacket and covered him with it. “Ky, don’t scare me… Please, nothing can happen to you.”
She held him tightly, leaning over with her cheek against his forehead, terrified to the core. Shirley Wilson knew that Skyler Robins had suffered severe internal injuries, but even after staying in the hospital for so long, he still hadn’t fully recovered.
As a doctor herself, she couldn’t believe that she had failed to take care of her own well- being.
Shirley Wilson gave all her warmth to Skyler Robins, while she herself wore only a knitted sweater. The cold wind seeped through the sweater, making her shiver uncontrollably, oblivious to the cold.
With one hand around his neck, she let him lean against her chest, while the other hand held his, constantly rubbing his fingers to keep him warm.
“Ky, I’m sorry for leaving without saying goodbye.”
“After leaving Bloomstead, I regretted it. I wanted to go back, to find you again. But I realized that you never looked for me, not even once. I know you must have seen the video of me with Wade Yoder, and you must have thought I was unfaithful.”
“So, I didn’t dare… I didn’t dare to turn back.”
“You asked me if I love you…” Shirley Wilson’s eyes turned red, tears streaming down her face. She held his hand against her chest. “I want to tell you. I love you, very much.”
Her chin rested on Skyler Robins’ forehead, filled with sadness and despair. “But how can I love you when you won’t let me?”
With tears and a trembling voice, Shirley Wilson sobbed, “Do you know, when I found out I was pregnant with your child in the hospital, I wanted… I wanted so badly to tell you. I wanted to tell you, Ky, that I’m carrying your child. No, our child! But I didn’t dare.”
