Vivian stopped midway, exhaled again, and continued, "I know I'm biting around the bush, right? and should just say, What am I here for right now? I am sure curiosity will be eating you too."
"Pretty girl! I want to help you. What I mean is that as long as no one in your family comes looking for you, and I really don't know why I am saying this either, if they are not alive anymore, then I am really sorry for your loss." Vivian says it sincerely.
'Oh no! I am really crazy for saying this; what if she thinks I want her parents to die so she has no other option but to stay with mine? Vivian says it in her mind after realizing what she said to the pretty girl just now.
'Goodness! Vivian, you are really crazy for saying that; just tell her what you want to now, or she will really not agree, even if what you just said is really the truth, She added.
"Please don't take me wrong because of what I said earlier... because I will never wish for anyone to lose their parents, nor will I ever wish for any child to lose their parent either. Vivian says this while squeezing Anna's hands.
"Now I will tell you what I really am here for without stopping at all, and I hope you will listen to me very carefully and try to understand what I am about to say."
Vivian says so and starts.
"Pretty girl, please, as long as no one in your family comes looking for you and please don't be offended, if what I said earlier about your parents not being alive anymore is true, will you please accept my help and please stay with my parents? They really will take very good care of you, I promise, and in return, please give them the love of a child. I am not asking you to forget about your biological parents at all, okay? I really just don't want them to be lonely when I'm gone. Pretty girl, the reason I am telling you all this is because my condition has worsened and I really don't have much time anymore, although I really wish I could make it until you wake up so we can see each other face-to-face and also so that you can see that I am very sincere about helping you and not just want you to stay with my parents and keep them company when I am not here. And I can just tell them to adopt someone else, but pretty girl, I really want to help you. That's why I didn't do that, because I feel you really need my help, like I said earlier."
Vivian said it all to Anna and didn't stop midway, just like she said she would not.
Smiling at Anna, even though she knows the girl can't see her, she continues. "And also pretty, my parents are very good, awesome, and incredible people; believe me when I say this, and you will also see what I just said for yourself when you wake up because I know you will; I feel it; that's why I'm saying it."
"They will love, cherish, and take care of you. I promise if you have to agree to this, you won't regret it ever, but thank me instead." She added.
Please, will you agree if you have to?" Vivian says with tears in her eyes, Beg Anna, while squeezing her hand.
"I'm leaving you alone now, pretty girl. I know you must be tired of listening to me already, but please think about what I just said to you. I will really appreciate it if you do, and get well soon if possible so we can see each other face-to-face before I leave. Get better soon; you can do this okay!"
Vivian says she kissed Anna's hand that she was holding earlier before turning around to leave the room.
Dear, are you done talking to her?" Mrs. Swift asks when she saw Vivian coming out of Anna's room.
Smiling at her mother, Vivian answers, "Yes, mom, I am."
Okay, let's take you to your room now." Her mother says
"Okay," she replied.
