Its been two months since Sophie woke up and each day she is getting stronger.
Its been hard but she is doing a lot better. Except that she still hasnt been able to regain the ability to walk yet. So I have been helping her move around.
And in other news we started dating. I'm there for her when the nightmares get to much. And she is there for me to help sort through all my memories and help me get through them. And i've never been happier.
It was around two in the afternoon when Linh comes into the medbay holding a book ¨Sophie!¨ exclaims Linh as she waddles into the room. ¨ you will never guess what I found!¨
( Linh dropped the bombshell that she was pregnant about two weeks ago and everyone is ecstatic, and we all have been pitching in on ideas for names and helping her get the nursery ready.)
¨ What did you find?¨ asks Sophie as she props herself up on her elbow.
¨I think I found a way for you to walk again¨ she trills as she hold Sophie's shaking hand, ¨IM going to need you to try and stand up and trust the process.'
Sophie , her eyes filling with hope, turns to me and says. I might be able to walk again Keefe¨ She trys to stand up by herself but her legs wobble and I catch her before she hits the ground. ¨Be careful Foster, we dont need you getting anymore injured now do we?¨ I tease.
I help her stand up and watch as she steadies herself against the wall. ¨Ok Linh¨ she whispers, ¨lets see if your idea works.¨
Linh slowly closes her eyes and soon water is coming towards Sophie and wrapping around her legs like a cocoon. Soon her legs are completely covered in water casts.
¨Now sophie Im going to move the water and its going to move your leg with it, try your best to try and move your leg along with it.¨ And so they did for about ten leg curls untill Sophies face is gleaming with sweat and Linh is looking shaky and needs to sit down.
¨Ok so I think that's enough of this for today¨ I say as I pick up Sophie bridal style and put her back on her cot, ¨Do you think its helping?¨
¨I believe it is¨, Sophie yawns, ¨It may have exhausted me but I regained a little feeling in my leg while doing the exercise, not enough to move it by myelf but enough to feel it moving, and I think with a little mor ti-¨
BUt Sophie didnt get to finish her sentence because Biana bursted in and exclaimed ¨GUys! Fitz's trial has been moved up. Its starting tomorrow.¨
¨We are going have to face him tomorrow.¨
