Ray keeps following me everywhere I go. If I have a patient to take care of, he wants to help me. If I need a glass of water he is there with a bottle in less than a second. Perhaps this is his way to apologize...
"Do you need anything else?" Ray asks me.
I feel so tired, and I'm just looking forward to going home. If he asks me the same question once more I might slap him.
"Ray would you stop it!"
I look next to me, and Eleanor is practically screaming at Ray. He stares at her confused.
"We heard you asking the same question to Neela all day," she continues, and then she looks at me. "Listen, Neela. I know we talked about this for months and I know you're mad or hurt, but can you just stop this nonsense and forgive him? We're all kinda tired of hearing him say how sorry he is."
I look at Morris, Luka, Abby, Sam and Frank behind me and they all have a smile on their faces, which tells me they agree with her.
"You missed him," Eleanor speaks again. "You love him. He loves you...why wait if you can be happy now?"
"Just give me a chance," Ray begs. Eleanor nods in agreement.
"Yes, give him a chance."
I sigh heavily, and Ray walks closer to me. He gets down on his knees. Taking my hands in his, he looks directly into my eyes.
"You can hate me for the rest of your life, or be mad at me for as long as you want, but please don't deny me the chance to be a good dad." He sighs and continues. "Or to be a good husband, for you."
"What are you saying...?" I can't help but sound a little bit confused by his words.
"Neela, would you marry me?"
I small smile is forming on my lips and I feel my eyes watering again.
"Yes..." I barely whisper
"But he is already married!" Morris yells, and Abby sushes him.
I don't even care if Eleanor is yelling at him or what everyone else is doing. The only thing I care about is him. And the only thing I want to do is hug him and never let go.
TBC!
I know what you're gonna say "buuuuuh that's too short!!" sorry,there's nothing else I could do!
