"Dr. Miles," Aviona called on him a few times already but it was only when she tapped his shoulder that he responded to her.
"What is it dear?" he turned to her weakly.
"I'm leaving already," Aviona told him, "Are you sure you are okay? I can stay here with you—"
"No… no... Aviona… go home to your husband. He must have been waiting for you, its already late," He dismissed her fully. It was the first time that Aviona step foot on their house for a long time and that was because, it was his wife's funeral that morning.
It had been three weeks already when Madam Sarah died but they buried him only after three weeks, when Dr. Miles was already ready to let her go. The old doctor was so devastated with her death that he had lost all the life in him. Aviona was the one who arranged the services and funeral together with Manager Cheng since Dr. Miles seemed sick and unfunctional.
