Capítulo 223: The Man In The Ward

Erik felt that his heart was about to burst with anticipation.  Aryana finally remembered him!  He had waited for this for a long time and he can barely contain his excitement.  That look in her eyes reminded him of how she would look at him after they were done making love.

However, Erik's happiness was short-lived.  Aryana closed her eyes and went back to sleep.  Erik wanted to hug her tight and kiss her deeply but he restrained himself.  He did not want to disturb Amaya's sleep.  He sat on the chair beside her bedside and studied her face for a long time.  Her long dark eyelashes cast a shadow on the cheek below her eyes. Her face has become rounder and her nose seemed to have grown bigger.  His gaze landed on their interlocked fingers.  He could not remember when Aryana grabbed his hand but he felt a warmth of comfort spread from his hand and enveloped his entire being.
