“Mom, did he talk to you?” Layla jumped up uncontrollably.
Avery shook her head: “He is conscious. I asked him a few questions, and he nodded in response to me.”
After hearing what her mother said, Layla burst into tears with excitement.
“Mom, can I take care of him in the ward?” Layla asked, wiping away her tears.
“The intensive care unit he lives in now has nurses to watch over him 24 hours a day. You don’t need to be by his side.” Avery held her daughter’s hand, “Mom knows you want to be with him, but he is still relatively weak, because he has spent a lot of time in coma. Wait until he gets better and is transferred to the general ward, okay?”
Layla nodded and calmed herself down: “Okay.”
After a while, they entered the special care ward.
When the nurse saw them coming in, she immediately backed out.
On the hospital bed, Eric heard footsteps and opened his eyes.
Just now Avery came in and told him that his parents were outside and wanted to see him very much. Avery asked him if he wanted to see them now, and he nodded.
Memories flashed through his mind as soon as Eric woke up from opening his eyes, reminding him of what had happened.
At first he thought he was dead, and everything he saw was just an illusion.
It wasn’t until Avery spoke, saying that he had just had a heart transplant, that he realized that he was not dead.
Of course, not dying was a joyful feeling, but his body was too weak to move, even if he just raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
For the rest of his life, what he wanted to see most were his parents.
During the period of his accident, his parents must have been heartbroken.
He just didn’t expect that Layla was there too.
Seeing Layla standing with his parents, he was stunned for a moment.
Just now Avery didn’t tell him that Layla was there.
However, seeing Layla standing there properly, his mood quickly relaxed.
“Eric.” Mrs. Santos walked to the hospital bed with tears in her eyes and a hoarse voice. She gently held his infusion hand with both hands, “You just finished the operation and your body is very weak, so you don’t need to speak. Mom really wants you, your father misses you very much. Fortunately, you are fine. Otherwise, what should we do if you don’t call mom and dad? Fortunately, you are fine…”
Mrs. Santos repeatedly said, ‘Fortunately, you are fine’, tears streaming down fall.
“Wife, don’t cry.” Mr. Santos wiped his wife’s tears with a tissue, “Eric woke up, this is a great thing. If you cry like this, those who don’t know think our son is dead.”
Mrs. Santos: “You Crow’s mouth! What nonsense are you talking about!”
“Okay! There are so many people watching!” Mr. Santos sighed, and turned to look at his son on the hospital bed, “Eric, I don’t want to blame you for what happened to you this time. As a man, you should be responsible. But as your father, I really can’t accept that you had an accident. Fortunately, there was no danger! You were rescued and came back! Next, you have to listen to the doctor’s words, you should take medicine on time, you should rest, and try to take care of your body, don’t let me send a white-haired person to a black-haired person!”
After hearing her husband’s words, Mrs. Santos’s tears flowed even more urgently.
Layla took a tissue and handed it to Mrs. Santos.
“…I’m sorry.” Eric made a deep voice on the hospital bed.
After he spoke, everyone looked at him.
“Son, don’t say I’m sorry. We didn’t blame you, we won’t blame you now, and we won’t blame you in the future. Take care of yourself and try to leave the hospital early.” Mrs. Santos looked at her son lovingly.
Eric nodded slowly.
After the two elders finished talking to Eric, they glanced at Layla.
After Layla entered the ward, she hadn’t spoken to Eric yet.
The two elders understood that Layla probably wanted to talk to Eric alone. So the two elders left the ward.
