99 A Family Reunion (1/2)

”Alright bro, that's amazing. I'm so happy she's awake. Ha-ha, I think it's funny how she heard me say she'll be late for work. But if she's sleeping now we will not come. Plus, dad is sleeping now, and I want him to get some rest. We'll come early in the morning.” Eyan replied to Alex's good news.

”See you guys tomorrow bro.” He hung up the call and walked back to the bed. He stood beside her and tenderly stared at her.

He made sure he saw her chest rise and fall before he relaxed.

”You've made me the happiest man again, honey.” He whispered and lightly caressed her cheek.

Alex was not able to sleep because he was overly enlivened and did not want to miss her when she woke up again. He left her bedside and went to sit at the table to finish the work he had undertaken the day before.

”Well, she did seem to remember, but we can't be certain because she was so confused.” He replied a bit worried.

”Papa, you're here as well?” Everyone in the room heard a soft and raspy voice speak. They turned to the bed and found Wan Bai holding Zunnie's hand.

”Ah, my pumpkin did I wake you? Papa Bai only wanted to hold your hand for a little while.” Mr. Bai answered her as tears slowly began trickling down his wrinkled face.

”Papa, are you crying? Bro and San? You guys are all here.” She started again with the questions.

Noticing that she was awake, Alex hurriedly went to call the nurses while the others spoke to her. This time the nurses were accompanied by Dr. Sean.

”Bonjour, Mrs. Zi you're finally awake? Nice to finally meet you. I'm Dr. Sean and these here are my nursing assistants. We have been taking care of you.”

”Hello Dr. Sean, assistants…” Zunnie replied softly enough so they could hear and flashed them a weak smile.

Whilst the doctor spoke to Alex the nurses made Zunnie sat Zunnie up in bed. He recalled to the doctor what had happened between Zunnie and him last night.

After getting informed Dr. Sean brought his attention back to Zunnie.

He checked her vitals then spoke;
