Taya took the report and left the hospital, looking out at the traffic coming and going, she suddenly not knowing where to go.
After standing frozen for a long time, she leaned against the wall, on the steps, and slowly sat down, her numb mind filled with images of Griffon holding her, kissing her, and saying he loved her.
She wondered what the image would be like if Griffon was there and knew she was pregnant, would his face, like a 10,000 year old ice sculpture, melt with joy, or would he be so happy that he would pick her up in his arms, like all fathers do?
She couldn't imagine what kind of look Griffon would have, all she knew was that she missed him so much, and that missing wasn't sweet, it was painful, a pain that went deep into her bones after losing the love of her life.
She was alone, looking at the road weaving crowd, how she hoped Griffon can take a step to her...... but she looked through the eyes, that familiar figure did not appear, this was all just her delusion, she lost, dropped his eyes, looking at the report, the pup and Griffon. What should she choose?
When her mind was in turmoil, a little girl of about five years old, jumped up and ran over, grabbed her arm.
"Sister, there's an uncle who asked me to give you this."
Taya looked at the little girl, and then lowered her eyes to the small box in the little girl's hand.
Peter, who had been standing guard a short distance away, immediately stepped forward when he saw someone approaching her.
Taya shook her head at him, signaling him not to come over, before reaching out to take it.
She opened the box and a gold leaf, appeared in front of her.
She picked it up and twisted it in her hand, touching it and realizing it was real gold.
"Who gave you this?"
Taya, somewhat surprised, asked the little girl.
The little girl licked the lollipop in her hand and shook her head at her.
"Sister, I don't know him either."
Taya frowned.
"What about that uncle?"
"He gave me some lollipops and left."
The little girl pointed down the hallway inside the hospital.
Taya looked in the direction of her finger and didn't notice anyone suspicious.
She withdrew her eyes and looked again at the gold leaf in her hand.
The front side was pure gold, there was nothing special about it, turning it over and looking at it, the back side did have a letter engraved on it.
[E]
What did E mean?
Taya looked up in confusion, wanting to ask the little girl for more information, but the little girl had ran away.
