AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane’s mind was a mess, but the warmth of Sebastian’s embrace made her feel like it was real.

She… had come back to reality?

She raised her weak hands very slowly. She was cautious and scared. As she slowly hugged him, tears suddenly fell from her eyes.

I’m not dreaming, I’m really not dreaming. I carry Sebastien in my arms.

She could finally hold him firmly.

The tears gushed like a fountain and could not be stopped. His hoarse voice was as light as a willow catkin…

– Sebastien, Sebastien…

“I’m here,” Sebastien replied in a muffled voice,

– I’m still there. Do not be afraid ! Everything is okay now, no one can hurt you anymore.

Roxane didn’t cry because she was afraid or hurt, but because she saw the heartache he had suffered in his dream.

How has he survived all these years?

All the grievances and hurts he had suffered, all the years of loneliness and inner suffering, he had endured it all alone. How could he bear it?

She cried so hard she couldn’t breathe and the scene before her began to make her dizzy.

Sebastian noticed something was wrong with her and immediately said:

– Patrice, call the doctor.

Patrice, who was immersed in his joy, finally reacted.

– Oh yes! I will leave now …

The doctor was happy to know that Roxane had woken up and moved forward to do a physical exam. The nurse comforted her and told her not to be so agitated.

Roxane’s eyes were as red as a rabbit’s as she looked at Sebastien with tears in her eyes.

Originally, the doctor wanted to ask the others to leave, but seeing her like this, he could only ask Sebastian to stay and the others to leave.

Half an hour later, the doctor put away his stethoscope and said to Sebastien – Congratulations, Mr. Flores. Mrs. Flores woke up. It seems that there are no major problems at the moment.

Sebastien was worried and asked with a straight face,

– Then she won’t fall into a coma anymore, right?

The doctor shook his head.

– I do not think so. Don’t worry.

With the doctor’s answer, Sebastien’s suspended heart could finally rest on the ground. He sat down by the bed and squeezed her cold little hand tightly.

-The doctor said you were fine. Don’t worry.

He thought she was afraid she might pass out again.

She pursed her lips and said nothing. She took the initiative to put her slender arms around his neck and asked for a hug.

Sebastien and Roxane hugged each other tightly. They only had each other’s eyes and couldn’t see anyone else.

The doctor and nurse left in silence.

Sebastien turned his head and kissed her on the forehead.

– It’s good. It’s good that you’re awake.

He gently coaxed her and didn’t mention the pain and sorrow he felt while guarding her these days.

He had waited for her to wake up every day, but he had been afraid that every second she would never wake up again.

Roxane wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, tears still falling from her eyes.

– Sebastien, I love you. I really, really love you… I love you more than anyone else in this world. Without you, I would have left this world a long time ago.

Sebastian’s eyes were warm as he looked at her affectionately.

Her fingers gently brushed the tears under the corners of her eyes.

– I love you very much too.

Roxane sniffed.

– I do not go. I’m not going anywhere in the future. I will stay by your side and will not be separated from you even for a second.

If she hadn’t seen what he had gone through with her own eyes, she probably wouldn’t have understood why he hadn’t agreed to let her study abroad.

But now she understood everything. It wasn’t that he couldn’t accept her going abroad, but that he couldn’t accept that her first choice wasn’t him.

When he was young, Mylene had chosen Lorraine and abandoned him. Although Alessio chose him, he had been busy with the company every day and had no time to take care of him.

He had grown up alone and had no company for so long.

To him, her appearance was like a straw in the hands of a drowning person, useless but the greatest comfort in his heart.

If he left, it would be a fatal blow for him. It would destroy the inner world he had just repaired.

Sebastien shook his head, his thin lips pursed into a smile.

– It’s not necessary.

He wiped his tears with his fingertips and said:

– From now on, you can go wherever you want. Whether it’s Paris or London, or anywhere else in the world, you can go. I just want you to be safe and happy.

He had kept her by his side long enough. It was time to let her go and give her her freedom.

Roxane shook her head quickly. She would never leave him again.

– You just woke up and your body is still very weak. Let’s not talk about that for now.

Sebastien helped her down.

-You need to rest first. I’ll ask Patrice to inform your parents. They’re worried about you these days.

Roxane had a stomach full of words to say, but when she met his sweet eyes, she could only swallow them.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Moreover, she was indeed weak and dizzy.
