Regardless of Cesars fate, she was determined to stay.
Grandma, we will wait here with you, declared Tyrone.
Noting their resolve, Wanda fell silent.
Two hours later, the red light above the operating rooms door switched to green.
At the same time, Tyrone, Sabrina, and Wanda sprang up, bracing for the doctors report at the operating rooms entrance.
The door swung open.
Lynch, hows my grandpa? Tyrone inquired immediately, his voice shaky and choked up.
Sabrina was silently observing Lynch, her hands folded across her chest.
Peeling off his mask, Lynch responded, The surgery went well. He will need a couple of days in the ICU. If theres nothing else, he will then be transferred to a regular room.
Sabrinas countenance finally softened into a smile, tears trickling down as relief washed over her.
I appreciate your help, Lynch.
Then Cesar was wheeled into the ICU.
Sabrinas heart wrenched at the sight of a still Cesar in the bed.
Just days ago, he was gleefully engrossed in a game of chess with her, now he Lay unconscious.
They all accompanied him to the ICU.
A doctor then cautioned, The patient needs peace at the moment. Please maintain silence.
Thank you. We will, Wanda acknowledged.
Not a problem. Let us know if you need anything else. Ill leave you be.
After the doctor departed, Wanda said, Cesar is doing well. You can rest easy, Youve been waiting here for a long time. Go back and have dinner.
Grandma, youve been here just as long. Make sure to look after yourself too. We cant afford for you to fall sick. Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join Stay Updated For All Books Updates

Alright then.
Great, Ill get you home, Grandma. Tyrone, Sabrina, stay here with Grandpa. ILL return soon after dropping Grandma home, Larry offered, helping Wanda to her feet.
