Capítulo 1003: He is back

"I'm sorry I made you wait for so long…", Aiden whispered while wiping her tears away.

Sarah sniffled and cried while smiling. She was a mess. "Silly… I'm sorry for crying selfishly without asking you how you feel. Are you in any pain?"

"I feel…", he thought for few seconds. "…rusty. I could use a good stretch… and a shower… I'm hungry."

She smiled while thinking how that is just like him: cleanliness and food. But he puts her first, so he let her cry. "Let's take it easy on stretching, and I can help you with the shower, as for food… let's start with water. I'm sure you need to start slowly... a popsicle, maybe? Let me call Anna and ask…"

Aiden held her hand, preventing her to reach for her phone. "Food can wait. Give me water and let's shower."

Sarah gave up on getting her phone and turned toward him. She didn't want to call anyone either. They would all gather around, and she would not have him only to herself.
