"Oh, by the way, Mrs. Lily said she was waiting for you in the car."
The doctor suddenly remembered the words that Lily asked him to convey just now. He said in a hurry.
"Okay."
Jack left the ward without looking back, leaving Sarah alone...
When he arrived at the car, he saw that Lily was sitting in the car without saying a word. His eyes softened.
"What's wrong? Why are you waiting for me here?"
'Because I don't want to interrupt your tryst!'
She almost blurted out. "I'm tired. I came to the car to have a rest," said she in a low voice, expressionless.
Yes, she was indeed tired
Jack thought she was frightened, so he held her in his arms and gently stroked her soft long hair.
"It's okay, it's okay..."
Somehow, Lily felt sad. Thinking of what she had heard outside the ward just now, she felt uncomfortable.
She didn't get rid of the man's arms, but gently pulled his sleeve and cried in a low voice.
The man held her more tightly, as if he wanted to integrate her into his body.
"It's okay."
He let go of her, raised her chin with his fingers and kissed away the tears on her face. "It's all over."
'It's all over?
Is it really all over?
Has Sarah come back?
Is this also the past?'
She couldn't help feeling sad. But she knew nothing about his past. She didn't know him very well. Maybe Sarah knew him better.
"Go home."
He always felt that she was unhappy today, but he didn't know why.
Did she already know?
