At the Yang Global's Hospital
Brix went straight to the hospital, after he finished his work at the office, to have dinner with Cris who was there to take care of his mother.
His mother was stable now and the doctor had instructed the ICU to arrange for her transfer to a VIP room.
His mobile phone rang and he immediately answered it.
"Yes, hon?" Brix asked using a new endearment that made Cris chuckle on the other end. She liked it very much especially that Brix initiated doing it.
"Madame is now in the VIP room so you can come straight here. She's sleeping right now. Where are you?" Cris asked excitedly.
"I'm almost there. Is the private nurse there?" Brix asked.
"Yup she's here. I'm starving…" Cris pouted. She could have eaten already but she had waited because she wanted to eat with Brix.
Brix laughed and said, "Okay, I will hang up now. I'm at the entrance now."
Cris looked at Madame Lenny who was still asleep before she went to the restroom to check herself in the mirror. When she came out of the restroom, Lenny was awake and talking to her personal nurse.
"Madame, do you need anything?" Cris asked with a smile.
"Is Brix coming?" Lenny asked with a blank expression.
Cris was about to answer when the door swung open and Brix entered the room.
'How are you, Mom? Oh, God. It's nice to finally see you without those tubes!" Brix beamed and rushed to hug his mother on the bed. He couldn't help himself. He was crying hard.
"Look at you. Such a big man and crying like this. I am fine now. Bad weeds don't die easily so you need not worry too much," Lenny mumbled, trying her best not to cry. She had a near-death experience and did not understand why she was still alive.
But when she thought that her life could have ended like that, Lenny realized that she was not ready to die and was ashamed to face her maker without repenting for the wrong things she did. Maybe she received this second life so she could correct her wrongs.
Lenny gently pushed Brix back and whispered, "I need air to breathe."
"Sorry, Mom. I'm just so overwhelmed seeing you in such good condition," Brix said with a smile while wiping his tears.
Cris was smiling wide as she felt really happy seeing Brix in such an excited state. She heaved a long sigh as she recalled her promise to Brix's mother. Cris was scared but she had readied herself for when Lenny would ask her to fulfill it.
Fortunately, Lenny was not asking anything right now. They were casual with each other and Cris was surprised that Lenny was not asking her to leave since her personal nurse had already arrived.
"I heard Cris is starving so why don't you two get some dinner together?" Lenny told his son.
Brix was caught off guard by her remark but quickly replied, "Alright Mom. I will accompany her to dinner. We'll be back right after."

"There is no need for you to hurry. You can drop Cris off at home first. She needs to rest. My personal nurse is here too so I will be okay, Brix," Lenny reassured Brix.
Cris could not help but see a bit of transformation in Brix's mother's reactions. She was trying to make things right. Lenny's face was expressionless but at least her words were no longer as negative as her old self.
Brix took no time to pull Cris up and said, "I will snatch Cris from you then, Mom."
Cris looked at Lenny with a half-smile on her face and said, "I will go now, Madame. I will come and visit you again. Get well soon."
Lenny nodded and signaled the two to leave.
"This is awkward…" Brix whispered when they were out of the room.
They started walking towards the hospital cafeteria and Brix remarked, "I feel like Mom has changed. Or maybe it's just that she has recovered. Let's wait a little more and see how things progress, but I am feeling some positive vibes, Cris. I hope this continues."
Cris agreed but she had to tell Brix that she had made a promise to his mother. Maybe she would tell him when he dropped her off at her apartment.
They had a hearty meal and conversation.
"I'm sure Mom appreciates your reading skills," Brix teased Cris when she told him how nervous she was and wondered what his mother thought about her actions and help.
"Let's get you home, hon, so you can finally have a good long rest," Brix whispered and he drove Cris to her apartment as soon as dinner was over. When they reached Cris' apartment Brix immediately prepared Cris' bathtub.
"Why don't you take a relaxing bath and I will give you a nice massage afterwards. I will sleep here tonight," Brix informed Cris with a wink and started to undress her.
Cris was feeling tired and sleeping in the ICU was not very comfortable either. Her face reddened and she stopped Brix from taking everything off and said, "I can manage this."
Brix laughed and said, "Don't tell me you're feeling shy from me, now when I have already seen everything? Don't worry I will refrain from touching you unnecessarily and will let you rest early."
Cris no longer objected and let Brix pamper her thinking that it might not last too long especially once Brix's mother asked Cris to leave her son. Just the thought of leaving him was making her heartache. How she hoped Brix's mother would come to accept her for Brix. Cris was willing to do anything for Lenny to like her.
Cris decided not to tell Brix about her promise to his mother and try to gain Lenny's favor first.
"Hmm, tomorrow I will go back to check on your mother at the hospital. Is that okay?" Cris asked Brix while he massaged her as she lay on the bed.
"Alright, I think she is finally going soft on you. I bet you read her more stories than a professional storyteller," Brix commented and made Cris laugh.
Yes, she did sound funny though, reading those novels with expressions and giving side comments to Brix's mother while she was on her bed.
'Did she really enjoy it?' she wondered. But she was hoping that Brix's mother could see her sincerity towards her.
