“Welcome home Lil Bum.” Drawing her hand hand through the crook of my arm I smiled down at her.
Nine weeks after her accident and she was finally discharged. And home. At least the home we would share here until I could talk her into moving back to New York with me and agreeing to be my wife.
Mrs Lily Romano.
It had a nice ring to it.
It was everything I had been dreaming of since that fateful day , seeing her walk albeit slowly on my arm. Seeing her alive.
But there was something wrong, a sadness in her that I couldn’t quite understand. I had asked ,of course I had but she had just smiled that pretty smile of hers and said she was fine.
She was always fine. Even when the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
And I didn’t want to push her, she was still so weak, so frail. Healing
