Therefore, I planned to go home to get some thick clothes as well as some basic toiletries.
I might stay in the hospital for the time being if all went as planned.
After having breakfast, I took a cab home.
I thought Theo would be at home at this hour, but he was not.
I was not overly concerned about it and entered the room to search for clothes.
After opening the closet, I realized many of Theo's clothes were missing.
It seemed like he had no plans of coming back in the next few days. I did not know nor did I want to know where he went.
Although I was upset about it, I was not a teenage girl anymore. Whatever happened, life would have to go on.
After packing several sets of clothes and toiletries, I headed for the hospital.
I did a mental calculation. It was just a few days away from Regata Storica.
Matthew was so badly hurt and was not going to recover before then.
I felt bad leaving him here and returning to Whaldorf City myself, so I could only push back my schedule.
However, I would be hurting Munchkin’s heart. I felt even more irritable now.
When I got back to the hospital, I stayed and took care of Matthew.
I did not actually need to do anything because most of the time, Laney was taking care of him. I was only pouring him water and talking to him.
The project was nearing its end. What was left was only some handover work. Jordan had handed those matters to Lally, so I just had to stay with Matthew in the hospital.
On the fifth day after the surgery, Matthew was able to get out of bed and walk around. With some strength in him now, he was in high spirits.
