Bab 155: Hacking

Maverick retracted his steps and returned to his sorrowful wife. 

Seeing her like this tugs at his heartstring. "It's just a dream," he said while pulling her to rest on him. He only wanted her to take it easy but who would have thought that it would make things worse? 

"No, it's not," Jeslyn shook her head as tears gushed out of her red and swollen eyes. "It was too real to be a dream. Maverick," she looked at him and slowly took his hand then placed it on her chest. "It hurts here," she said.

"My heart… hurts, Plum. It feels like… like… I'm dying. My baby, I didn't see my baby." 

Maverick flattened his lips. He only does that when he is stressed or feeling emotional. 

"I'll find out what happened. Trust me," he wiped her tears with his index finger and kissed her on the head before hugging her. 

Jeslyn cried even more before falling asleep in Maverick's arms again.
