Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1288

Luca walked over to the bed and bent over slightly.

Luke extended his arm and put it around her shoulder while his other arm held onto the cabinet beside the bed. He managed to get down from the bed.

They were so close to each other right now. Luca did not dare to look at the expression on his face. Instead, she looked down at the floor and asked, “How are you feeling?”

“I’m fine,” replied Luke. He felt a little dizzy when his feet touched the floor but he felt fine when he managed to stabilize himself. Everything felt fine except for the fact that his feet were still a little weak.

“Let’s try walking a few steps. Don’t force yourself, though.” Luca felt his warm breath on her scalp when he spoke to her. She could not stop her face from turning red.

Luke replied with an, “Mm.” He then tried taking his first steps.

Luca tried to keep up with him while paying close attention to his breathing. At that moment, she could hear that his breathing was peaceful, so she said nothing and helped him to the bathroom.

After setting him down on the toilet seat, she said to him, “Sit here.”

Luke nodded in response.

Luca helped him sit down and then said, “I’ll be waiting for you outside. Just call me when you’re done.”

After that, she quickly left the bathroom and closed the door.

Luca leaned her back against the wall and took a deep breath. It was just a short journey to the bathroom but she was sweating all over her back and her heart pounded uncontrollably.

When she was helping him walk, she could feel that he was looking downward. His warm breath was sprayed over her scalp. She could not be sure if he was doing that on purpose or not.

The distance between them was intimately close earlier, and she almost could not handle that feeling. Everything that she experienced just now felt deliberate when in reality, it was not.

Luca leaned against the wall as she looked up at the ceiling, fanning her face with one hand. She hoped that it might disperse the heat a little quicker.

After a while, she heard flushing noises from the bathroom. Just as she hesitated to go in, the door opened from the inside.

Luke held the door with one hand while supporting himself on the wall with the other as he walked out.

Luca quickly grabbed his arm. “Are you alright, Mr. Crawford?”

She did not expect him to walk out just like that.

“I’m fine,” he replied. He let her help him back to bed.

Luca helped him up onto the bed before she breathed a sigh of relief.

Luke looked at her and asked, “Were you calling my name when you woke up?”

Luca was stunned. She had dreamed of something when she was sleeping earlier. Something about the past. When she woke up, she could not tell if she was still dreaming or not. That was why she did that.

She shook her head and replied, “I don’t think so. You must have misheard me, Mr. Crawford.”

Luke was sure that he heard it right, but since she did not want to address the issue, he would not press her further either. He was only taking a gander. He said, “It’s getting late, let’s get some sleep.”

“Mm,” replied Luca as she turned and walked back to her chair.

Even with her back turned toward him, she could feel his gaze on her back.
