I inhaled the fresh scent of the crimson rose and the night's breeze soothed my senses.

"Thanks for bringing me out here" I tell the nurse.

"Its nothing! Its my job"

I tucked my hair behind my ear and looked at the stars in the sky.

"I miss my husband" I say.

"Why ? is he dead?" The nurse asks

"No he isn't"

"Then where is he?"

"He's at home. I guess I would be seeing him tomorrow morning."

"That's great"

I nod with a small smile. A yawn escapes my lips and the nurse suggests I go back to my room.

She takes me back and tucks me in bed. After a few moments, I was off.

.............................................................

My eyes flutter open and soaks in the sunlight that lights up the room. A yawn escapes my lips and I stretch in bed.

I feel a painful prick on my right hand only to realise I had slept with the rose in my hand. Blood oozed out of the new wound.

I quickly dropped the rose and left for the sink. I washed the blood till it stopped flowing. I cursed under my breath. I got a paper towel and dried my wet hands then I applied some liniment I saw in the cabinet on it.

The door flew open and in came the doctor.

"Good morning" he said and I responded.

He told me he was here to check on me and inspect everything before I am discharged. I lay in the hospital bed and allowed him to inspect whatever. After like five minutes, he said I was okay and that I can go.

Beverley was there to pick me up and so I went to her. She had brought me fresh clothes to change into.
I got into a pair of yellow shorts and a black tank top blouse. I styled my hair into a fringe and did some light makeup

"You told me you will be going home today" Beverley reminds

I nod and she pulls the baby's cart towards me. Tyler lay in with his bright blue eyes sparkling in the light. His hair had began to grow and I detected it to be dark brown like mine.

"Hello baby" I say excitedly and pick him out of the cart.

He just stares at me and I play with his small fingers.
After a while, I placed him into the cart and Beverley snaps her hands. We all appear in front of the Shipman's residence.

I exhale heavily. I was still thinking about Ethan's reaction when he sees me.
Beverley however wished me good luck and then disappeared.

I stood there with Tyler in the baby's cart contemplating whether to enter or not. Then the front door flew open and Ethan came out in his black business suit with a blue tie and dark glasses. He spots me and freezes at the doorway.

He was on his way to work am sure. He takes off his glasses and looks at me.

"Amber, is that you?" He manages to say from the shock he just got.

I nod. He walks towards me and the baby's cart. He takes Tyler from it and hugs him tight.

" I missed you son"he said and began kissing him.
I tucked my hair behind my ear nervously and looked at the two.

"Let's go inside" Ethan said and led the way into the grand hall.

Ethan lay Tyler in his baby's cart and came to me. He looked relieved and hurt in a way.
"Where did you go to?" He demanded
