Chương 224: Epilogue

Long Ah Hai carefully sat on the patient bed and gently took his frail wife into his arms. Her eyes opened slightly and she gave him a small smile through the oxygen mask that covered half her face before closing them back.Her glassy and dull eyes pained him whenever he though of how they used to twinkle. He had to be careful not to jostle her with all the medical instruments attached to her.. The machine that beeped with the sound of her heart beating had recently become his favorite music. It told him that she was still here with him in this world. Ah Hai saw the knowledge in her eyes..the acceptance that she was going to leave this world soon..He did not want to let her go. But he knew that he could not fight fate anymore.Not after the fatal heart attack she had last week. Her heart had given up and her body wanted to follow suit. Living on this fake machine was not what she wanted. She was waiting for him, he knew. Waiting that he would accept the truth and let her go.
