Chapter 208: Big Sister
Chapter 208: Big Sister
"The patient's family can go in to visit him, but only for half an hour.Also, only two people at a time.Who wants to go in?" the nurse asked.
"Mel" Precious exclaimed.
"I want to go! I want to see Ray. She wanted to be the one telling him the good news that they were twins.
Wendy was the one who was worried the most.
They decided to let Precious go with Wendy.
They both were allowed in the ICU after they changed into sterile suits and wore masks.
As soon as Wendy entered, tears started to roll down her cheeks again.
She was not a person who always cried.
But since Raymond's accident, she cried a lot.
In the ICU, Raymond was lying in the white bed.His body was covered by the quilt from the waist down.His upper body was naked, revealing his thin chest and shoulders.
There was an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose.
A drip was attached to his hand, along with several tubes to his chest.
There were all kinds of medical equipment next to his bed.
Raymond was awake.His face was pale as he turned to look at Wendy and Precious.His eyes lit up and he smiled weakly.
Wendy smiled through her tears.She took Precious' hand and walked towards the bed.
"Ray..."
"Mommy."
Wendy grabbed his hand and found that his temperature returned to normal.She laughed and cried at the same time.
"The fever has finally gone.That's great..."
"Mommy."
Because of the oxygen mask, Ray's voice was unclear.Also, since he was weak, his voice was sporadic.
"I'm sorry...I made you...worry..."
"Silly boy!"
"Brother!"
Precious rested her head on the bedside railing and tilted her head.She looked at Raymond with bright eyes.
"Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother!"
She called him several times as if to make up for all the years she had missed.
Then she grinned and said, "Brother! Let me be the first to tell you that I'm your sister!"
Raymond frowned and looked at Wendy in confusion.
Wendy smiled and said nothing.
Precious leaned her hand on the railing and sniffed.
"Brother, I'm your sister.I mean your real sister.We both have the same mommy and daddy!"
Raymond continued to frown and asked, "Mommy, what is she talking about?"
Wendy nodded.
"It's the truth.You two are twins.I just got to know about it."
Wendy kissed Raymond's hand and said, "Ray! You will be healthy again.Precious is a matching donor.Three days from today, they will perform the bone marrow transplant.Once you recover from the surgery, you can run and jump like a regular child."
Wendy thought Raymond would be ecstatic.But he wasn't.His expression was not that of happiness.
On the contrary, Raymond was slightly stunned.Then he frowned and pursed his lips.
"Ray, aren't you happy?"
Ray ignored the question and asked, "Then, is Uncle Ryan my biological father?"
Wendy bit her lip and nodded.
She was more shocked than anyone else that Ryan was the man who had sex with her four years ago.
To be honest, what had happened that night had changed her fate.
Because of that particular night, Wendy had suffered a lot, emotionally and physically.
She would always be afraid when she got intimately close to a man.She had realized this when she had been shooting an intimate scene.
Wendy had tried her best to overcome it, but it was like a shadow that she couldn't get rid of.She had tried various ways to overcome the fear, but she hadn't been successful.She didn't even know how she would face Ryan.
Wendy had heard something about Ryan from Luke.
Four years ago, Luke had drugged Ryan so that he would loosen up.
Later, everything that had happened between her and Ryan had happened unconsciously.
And after that night, Ryan's hatred for women deepened.
Wendy smiled bitterly.
It seemed that she wasn't the only one affected by what happened that night four years ago.
Ryan also was affected.
Both of them were victims.
Wendy didn't even know whether she should hate him or not.
"Momnyy..."
Wendy came to her senses and saw that Raymond's face was livid.
"Ray! What's wrong, dear? Are you in pain?" she asked nervously.
"No..."
The little boy shook his head with difficulty as he thought of something.
He held Wendy's hand tightly and said, "I'm not in any pain."
But he looked as if he was in pain right now.Wendy looked at him worriedly.
"Mommy, I promise.I'm not in any pain.Don't worry.I'm fine."
Wendy breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that although he looked pale, the data on the machine next to his bed didn't change.
"If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me, or the nurse in the ward, okay?"
Ray nodded, "Okay!"
"Don't move."
As expected, Raymond lay absolutely still.
"Brother! I'm your sister.Do you know how happy I was when I came to know that? Today is the happiest day of my life."
Raymond laughed weakly and said, "Silly girl!"
Precious pouted and said, "Why do you always call me silly? I'm smart too."
"Well, you are still a child.How can you say that today is the happiest day in your life?"
Ray spoke with difficulty.
"Anyway, I'm very happy! Are you happy to know that I'm your sister?"
Ray didn't answer.
"Brother..."
"Precious, Ray must be tired."
"Okay!"
Precious lowered her head in disappointment.
Somehow, she felt that Raymond was not so happy.
'He shouldn't be.Shouldn't he be grinning happily now that he has such a lovely sister?' Precious thought as she scratched her head in confusion.
Precious continued to chat with Raymond.
Of course, she did most of the talking while he was quietly listening.
The expressions on their faces were very different.
Precious was chatting animatedly, and Raymond was looking at her gently.
It was a very cozy scene.
Wendy looked at both the children with tenderness in her eyes.
"Oh, by the way, Mommy..."
Suddenly, Precious held Wendy's hand.
"Mommy! Mommy! How many minutes was Ray born before me?"
Ray also looked at Wendy curiously.
Wendy was silent for a while.
If she remembered correctly, the doctor had told her that the firstborn was the girl! Thinking of how Precious always treated Raymond as her elder brother, Wendy couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Mommy, have you forgotten?" Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Of course, she hadn't! Finally, Wendy decided to tell them the truth.
"Well! I remember that you were born a minute earlier than Ray!"
Both Raymond and Precious were stunned.
'What? Is it the truth?' The two children looked at each other.
Precious was the one to recover first.
She suddenly jumped up and down in glee.
She laughed out loud and clapped her hands.
"I'm elder than you by a minute.I'm your elder sister! This is awesome! Now, my little brother, call me big sister!"
