As they kissed, a crystal tear slipped from the corner of Anna's eye and hit the back of Matthew's hand, burning hot.
When she pulled away, Matteo held her in his arms, his voice dark with dense roughness.
"It won't happen again, I promise there won't be a next time, I will never let anything happen to me."
He had lost three loved ones in this world, one after another.
So Matthew knew how painful it was to lose a loved one; those who died knew no more, and those who remained had to live every day and every second licking their wounds alone.
It was difficult and painful, and he wanted to take all the responsibility before, but now he thought his wife was right.
When two people are together, they have to look out for each other and share the burden together.
He was too thin and easy to crumble with one person, and especially if something happened to him, there would be no one left to fight for them, mother and son, when the time came.
So this time, he also taught Matthew a great lesson.
It is not always good to be a champion.
When Matteo woke up, Anna commandeered his hospital bed and stood guard while Matteo slept by his side.
Anna did not sleep peacefully, however, and from time to time she called his name in her sleep, looking anxious and clasping her hands.
It was Matthew who finally put out his hand, and then Anna grasped it with all her strength, like a fish that often dies of thirst and has been given water, and clung on for dear life.
Matthew looked at her hand, whose strength was almost pinching his.
It hurt a little, but inside it was sweet.
This little girl was truly full of herself.
Matthew lowered his head, dropped a soft kiss on her pale forehead and whispered, "Sleep, I am here."
After three days of observation in the hospital, Matteo was put back on his feet.
Amelia visited him twice during this time.
The last time was when he was about to be discharged from the hospital, and Amelia took advantage of being out of the ward to continue counting it.
"You are such a fool, you only have eyes for your husband, you stayed in the hospital every day when he was injured, and you didn't even go home to see me."
Anna also felt that she had been a bit naughty for the past two days, so she scratched her head in embarrassment and said apologetically, "Mom, it's just that I saw that you were taking care of the two children. You told me the other day that you have more experience than me in taking care of children, that you raised me alone and that I am so strong now because of my mother. That's why I'm so relieved to leave the two children with Mother."
"No." Amelia did not believe her and was sarcastic.
"Come on, you've been impressed since you saw Matthew, and now I'm the one talking about you."
