“Director Yun, we’re here.”
Yun Tianyou got out of the car. The driver lowered the window and asked respectfully, “When should I pick you up?”
“I’m not going home tonight. I’ll be staying here.”
“Sure. Call me any time you need anything.”
“That won’t be necessary, you should rest early tonight!”
“Alright.” The chauffeur nodded and drove away.
When the man arrived at the ward, the curtains were drawn and the lights were on. Two caretakers were busy attending to things and there was a basin of hot water beside them. The were obviously wiping her down.
He walked over. When the caretakers saw him, they immediately smiled and greeted him.
“How do you do, Director Yun!”
“Director Yun, please sit for a while. We’ll be done soon.”
Yun Tianyou extended his hand and said, “I’ll do it!”
“Director Yun…”
“I’ll do it. Where are you at?”
The two caretakers looked at each other and did not insist. They handed him the towel. It was still warm.
“Only her hands and face have not been wiped down.”
“Okay, you may leave.”
“Yes.” The two caretakers left quietly.
The man stepped through the curtain. Natalia was lying quietly on the bed. Her pale face was extremely thin, she had been relying on nutrient solutions to maintain her vital signs for many years. As a result, her skin was sickly pale. Even though she was unconscious, the weak aura on her face could not be concealed.
His heart ached a little.
After rinsing the towel again, he walked to the bed and sat down. He gently held her hand, rolled up his sleeves, and carefully wiped down her arm.
Every day she slept, he would come. Sometimes, he came to take a look in the morning. Sometimes, after he was done with work, he would come over to see her or spend the night with her. Every moment, he seemed to be waiting for a miracle to happen.
The electrocardiogram showed that her heart was still beating in an orderly manner.
As he wiped her arm, he stopped to look at her from time to time.
After wiping her arm, he took out a cotton swab and carefully cleaned her nails.
Her nails were trimmed by him. Even after so many years, the gaps between them were immaculately clean, without a trace of dirt.
Other than not having eaten for many years and looking especially pale, he took good care of everything else about her. At a glance, she looked as though she had just fallen asleep.
“You’ve been asleep for a long time.” Yun Tianyou muttered under his breath.
When there was no one around, he liked to talk to her like this. Even though she might not be able to hear him.
However, even if he was only talking to himself, it gave him a feeling that… she would wake up any moment.
The boy was a little depressed. “Gu Chengze is already married. How long more do you want me to wait?”
The person on the bed remained silent and would not answer him.
He smiled as he gently caressed her face. “How strange. You’ve always been here, but…” As he spoke, he paused and suddenly picked up her hand. He placed her soft but cold palm on his face longingly.
Her hands were extremely cold.
He gently kissed her fingertips.
No one could say for sure when Natalia would wake up. The doctor had given the best and worst case scenarios.
Best case scenario was that she might wake up anytime, in the blink of an eye.
The worst case scenario was… She might never wake up again.
She might sleep until her organs failed… and finally, she would die.
