As the days turned into weeks, Ken’s recovery became a testament to her strength and resilience. Each morning, Wenny would arrive at the hospital with a fresh bouquet of flowers, determined to brighten Ken’s room with colors and scents that reminded her of the outside world.
Wenny was there through the pain and discomfort, sitting by Ken’s bedside during physical therapy sessions, encouraging her with every small victory. Ken would grimace and push through, motivated by the love and support pouring from Wenny.
“Just a few more steps, Ken,” Wenny urged one day, her voice filled with unwavering belief. “You’ve fought against a monster; this is nothing!”
Ken huffed a laugh, pushing through the pain as she took another shaky step. “Easy for you to say when you’re not the one with broken ribs!”
Wenny grinned, a lightness filling the air despite the seriousness of the moment. “But you are a superhero! Superheroes don’t give up!”
With Wenny’s encouragement, Ken took another step, then another, until she finally reached the end of the therapy room, her body trembling with exertion. The physical therapist clapped, and Wenny cheered loudly, throwing her arms around Ken in a tight hug.
“You did it! You did it!” Wenny exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with pride.
“Only because you were here,” Ken admitted, resting her head against Wenny’s shoulder, feeling the warmth radiating from her. “I couldn’t have done it without you.”

Rebuilding Strength
Over the next few weeks, as Ken continued her physical therapy and wound care, she found herself healing not just physically, but emotionally as well. The support from Wenny, who never left her side, made a world of difference.
One afternoon, as they sat together in Ken’s hospital room, Wenny decided to cheer Ken up with a little adventure. “I’ve been thinking…” she began, glancing at Ken with a mischievous grin, “what if we have a picnic on the rooftop garden when you’re out of here?”
Ken’s brow furrowed slightly. “A picnic? But I’ll still be on crutches.”
“Exactly! It’ll be our own little adventure. I’ll carry the basket, and you can be my king on the throne!” Wenny laughed, and the sound filled the room with warmth.
Ken smiled, her heart swelling at the thought. “That sounds perfect. Just the two of us under the sun.”
Wenny leaned closer, her voice dropping to a whisper. “I’ll bring your favorite snacks—ice cream and all the fruits you love. It’ll be the best picnic ever.”
“I can’t wait,” Ken replied, the vision of their picnic filling her with joy.

The Day of Freedom
Finally, the day arrived when Ken was discharged from the hospital. Wenny stood by her side, excitement bubbling in her chest. “Ready to go home?” she asked, her eyes shining with enthusiasm.
Ken chuckled softly, adjusting her crutches as they made their way out of the hospital. “As ready as I’ll ever be,” she replied, a mixture of apprehension and excitement coursing through her.
The sunlight was bright outside, and as they stepped into the open air, Wenny could see the smile spreading across Ken’s face. “It feels good to be free,” Ken said, inhaling deeply.
“Just wait until we’re on that rooftop,” Wenny teased, her heart racing as they headed toward her car.

A Picnic Under the Sky
The rooftop garden was a hidden gem atop Wenny’s apartment building, filled with vibrant flowers and greenery. It was a perfect day for a picnic; the sun was shining, and the sky was a brilliant blue.
Once they reached the rooftop, Wenny quickly set out the blanket, laying out all the snacks she had prepared—sandwiches, fresh fruits, and, of course, ice cream in thermoses to keep it cool.
“This is amazing!” Ken said, her eyes lighting up as she looked around. “I can’t believe you did all this.”
Wenny shrugged playfully. “Anything for my superhero. Besides, it’s all about the company.”
They settled onto the blanket, enjoying the simple pleasures of each other’s company. Wenny filled Ken’s plate with her favorite foods, and they laughed and talked about everything under the sun.
“I can’t believe I fought a monster,” Ken said, shaking her head in disbelief. “I mean, I knew I was tough, but that was a whole new level.”
“You’re a real-life superhero,” Wenny said, her voice full of admiration. “You saved so many people, including me.”
Ken looked at Wenny, her heart swelling with affection. “You’re the one who saved me, though. You were my light in the dark.”
Wenny felt her cheeks heat up at Ken’s words, her heart racing. “I just did what anyone would do,” she replied, trying to play it cool.
“No, Wenny,” Ken said softly, reaching for Wenny’s hand. “You stayed by my side through everything. You believed in me when I didn’t even believe in myself. That’s something special.”
Their eyes met, and the moment felt electric, the air around them charged with unspoken emotions.
“Ken…” Wenny started, but Ken squeezed her hand, silencing her with a look.
“I’m so grateful to have you in my life. I don’t want to just be your protector; I want to be with you, like really be with you,” Ken confessed, her voice earnest and sincere.
Wenny’s heart soared at Ken’s words. “I want that too,” she admitted, feeling bold. “I’ve always wanted that.”
As the sun began to set, casting a golden hue over the rooftop, Ken leaned closer, her voice barely above a whisper. “Then let’s make it official. Will you be my girlfriend, Wenny?”
Wenny felt tears of joy fill her eyes. “Yes! A million times, yes!”
They leaned in, their lips meeting in a gentle kiss that felt like a promise of all the beautiful moments yet to come.

The Future Awaits
As the sun dipped below the horizon, Ken and Wenny sat together under the fading light, hand in hand, their hearts entwined. The road to recovery was still ahead of them, but they would face it together, stronger than ever.
Ken’s journey from the brink of despair to love and light was a testament to the power of hope, and with Wenny by her side, she knew that no challenge was too great. They had fought through darkness together, and now they were ready to embrace the bright future that lay ahead.
With laughter and love as their guiding stars, they began to dream of what their life could be—a life filled with adventure, joy, and the unbreakable bond they had forged through trials and triumphs.
As they watched the stars appear in the night sky, Ken leaned her head against Wenny’s shoulder, feeling an overwhelming sense of peace. “I think we’re going to be okay, Wenny,” she whispered, her voice filled with hope.
“We’re going to be amazing,” Wenny replied, squeezing Ken’s hand tighter, knowing that together, they could conquer anything that came their way.
