_ The Widow _
"Yes, please."
CJ is on the phone.
He just canceled the business meeting.
"Something came up." He says. "I know you can handle it. I'll keep in touch. Bye."
He hangs up.
"You really don't have to be here." I mutter. "Work is more important."
He takes my hand and gives it a little squeeze.
"You are more important."
He wraps his arms warmly around me. Him being here for me is everything. I wasn't expecting him to cancel his business trip but he did. For me.
We are sitting on the hospital bench, waiting for the doctor to give us a brief.
I'm leaning on CJ's shoulder, sad thoughts running noisily through my mind.
What if I lose my mom? I lost my biological nine years ago! And now I'm gonna lose my step-mom too? I mean, she's a wonderful person. She's a f*****g angel
