"Elisa?"
"Are you home?" Elisa went straight to the point.
"Yup. I'm alone at home." Will chuckled warmly.
"I'm outside." Replied Elisa.
Will was surprised. He immediately said, "Come in."
Elisa hung up.
The gates to the grounds opened. She drove in, parked, and got out.
The front door opened. Still in a wheelchair, Will personally came to welcome her.
Elisa frowned. She followed him in and shut the door. Turning to him, she scowled, "You're not completely recovered yet, and you're coughing. You shouldn't be going outside where it's cold."
Will chuckled in amusement. "Are you worried about me?"
Elisa looked away and scowled even harder. "You're not fully well. I was the one who treated you before. Worrying about you is only natural."
Will sighed in exasperation. "Elisa, you don't need to draw the line like that."
Elisa could see the sadness in Will's eyes. She pursed her lips, not knowing what to say next.
She gestured for him to give her his hand and said, "Show me."
Will obediently held his hand out. Elisa felt his pulse. Neither of them said a word.
After a while, Elisa frowned. "Who is your doctor?"
"Someone my mom found for me." Was Will's brief answer.
As Elisa withdrew her hand, Will said softly, "Have a seat. I'll make some tea."
