Chapter 860 "Hannah, I'm sorry."
Finally, Miguel went out. Oscar and Hannah were left alone in the ward, but neither of them broke the ice first. Hannah said she wanted to talk and stopped Oscar from leaving but she said nothing. And, Oscar simply stared at Hannah in silence.
It was soundless in the room. At last, Oscar couldn't help but come close to her slowly and looked at her face, where disgust could still be seen though she had tried to hide. He knew it must be hard for her to make up her mind to talk to him and stand his approach. But he pretended that he could see nothing and feel nothing. He simply sat down by her bed, stayed close to her and fell into silence again. Oscar looked at her ghastly pale face and broke the silence in a heavy and peaceful voice, "So, you wanted to leave me at any cost?"
He once thought Hannah was a reasonable one, who treasured her life too much to go extreme. But he had overestimated his ability to understand her. He was very wrong to think that Hannah didn't hate his guts.
Hannah look at him and saw his peaceful face filled with sadness and sarcasm.
"I think two years is short." Uttered Oscar lightly.
He once thought there might be no turning back, but he still went all out for what he wanted. He believed two years wasn't that long and he could make it up to her and fix it later. However, Oscar smiled lightly in tears, "It turned out that two years have ruined everything."
These two years had given him life-long pain and sadness.
Hannah still turned a cold shoulder to him, as if she couldn't feel his sadness. She indifferently looked at him, who she used to love with her life, who used to be the closest one to her. But all at once, he was like a total stranger to her.
"Hannah, I'm sorry."
It didn't matter any more, as he had already broken her heart. He didn't deserve her forgiveness, either. But he didn't know what else to say. What else did Hannah want to hear from him?
Maybe she would like to hear those words, which Oscar thought he would never say out of his mouth, but he finally said it after seeing everyone's misfortunes, "I'll let you go." "You can go anywhere as you wish. You can be with anyone you want. I won't show up to your face again if you don't want to see me. I just want you to be alive." He thought. Hannah simply stared at him. She had tried so hard to escape and set herself free, but she suddenly didn't want that when she finally had it.
"I won't leave you." She said.
Oscar was shocked and looked at her unbelievably. He thought she might be silent or get mad. But he didn't expect that. On the way to the hospital, he'd been ready to lose her for good.
"I've been unreasonable." Said Hannah peacefully, as if she'd seen it through. In her opinion, one wouldn't grow or be stronger until he went through different life experiences. She hated evil as a mortal enemy after she relived her life, and she became fearless after she survived the terrible accident. Nothing could defeat her if she wasn't fear death.
"I won't leave any more." She said.
"Hannah..." Oscar was too shocked to finish his words. He could hear his strong heartbeats, and couldn't believe Hannah was holding his hand all at once. He saw the bruises on her hand back but she was taking his hand with determination.
His fingers began to shake with her touch. He began to tremble all over. What had mostly crossed his mind was that Hannah would leave him forever. To his surprise, Hannah offered to take his hand and promised to stay for him. His happy tears dropped down on their clasped hands. Oscar was over the moon but Hannah was calm as a cucumber. Oscar thought he would simply believe it no matter whether Hannah was fooling him or it was only a dream.
Justine and Susan had been waiting at the door and watching Manuel in the ICU. They were quiet and any sound could scare them at that moment. How they wished Manuel, who had been unconscious all time, could wake up!
It'd been 24 hours. Doctors came in and out over and over but gave them no good news. Susan had even thought she could take it even if Manuel ended up in a persistent vegetative state like her father. But she couldn't take it if he died.
"Justine." Suddenly, a voice came into their ears.
Justine and Susan were scared out and looked back at Theodore, who hated to disturb them but couldn't bear to see them waiting there without eating or drinking. Their health also mattered. "Grab some sleep. I'll be here for Manuel." Said Theodore.
Justine shook her head and refused to leave when Manuel was still in a coma. She must stay and wait for him to wake up. It was the same for Susan, who believed it would kill her if she couldn't see Manuel. "I understand your feelings. Manuel is my buddy, and I also feel bad. But you must have a rest. I've arranged rooms for you. Eat something and take a nap. You can come back later."
"Theodore..."
"Justine, please! I've talked to the doctor. It's impossible that Manuel will wake up in one or two days. It's gonna last long. You can wait for him without eating or drinking for 24 hours. But what about a month?" said Theodore with determination.
Justine bit her lips hard. She didn't want to go take a nap but she couldn't argue with him.
"Do you think Manuel wants to see the two women who he loves the most ruining their health for him?" persuaded Theodore.
Justine managed to hold back her tears. Manuel had hated to bring others trouble since he was a child. He had been doing all he could to help those who he thought deserved it and never asked for anything in return, just like saving Hannah. She didn't blame Hannah but she felt so sorry for Manuel for risking his life to save her.
