章 964: Heritage

Watching her tranquil face every morning with her eyes closed and steady breathing was one of the most beautiful sights in his life that he never wanted to lose. 

He believed she was the reason for his existence. She inspired him to wake up each morning. She brought hope for a great and happy future ahead for their family. Without her, he was nothing.

After her incident yesterday, he was not taking any chances. He immediately set up an appointment with her doctor for that morning. But waking her up from her deep slumber was not easy as he stared into her lovely face.

"How long have you been up?" She mumbled in her sleepy tone as if aware that he had been watching even when she barely moved, not even opened her eyes.

But her right hand sought him out as it crawled on the pillow and landed on his face. Then, her fingers caressed his cheeks, tracing a pattern around his face, along his nose, and ending on his lips.
