Aberdeen City, 2 years ago
The sun had just risen, and its opening light slowly draped the city with a new day.
Althea, gently woken up by the early sun's greeting, groaned and turned her head nestled in her arms. She seemed to have fallen asleep on the side of her husband's hospital bed some hours prior.
She knew this judging by how stiff her shoulders were.
She rubbed the lethargy away from her eyes and stretched it away with big movements, freezing when she saw her husband staring at her the whole time!
"Husband!" She yelled, immediately scooting to the side of his bed, and looking at him apologetically.
She wanted to tell him that she was sorry for scaring him but when her eyes met his warm azure ones, her tear ducts, uncontrollably, broke again.
"I'm sorry…" Althea sobbed as she stared at the man who had just woken up.
