Tyrone sneered, “Is that all you’ve got, a thank you?”
“Then, how do you want me to repay you?”
“Could you...” Tyrone started but then hesitated. “Could you stay with me at the hospital until I’m discharged?”
What Tyrone truly wished to ask was if she could stay with him forever Sabrina’s brows furrowed. As Tyrone anxiously thought
he had overstepped, she nodded.
“Absolutely.”
Tyrone was ecstatic when Sabrina agreed.
But his heart sank when he heard her say, “You were injured saving me.
It’s only right that I look after you.”
Tyrone’s face went blank, his happiness quickly fading.
His eyes dropped, a twinge of bitterness in them. What was the point of her brief company?
Eventually, they would go their separate ways.
“Never mind, I was joking. Karen will care for me. What are your plans moving forward?”
Sabrina replied, “I’m planning a trip with friends.”
“Where to?”
“I haven’t decided.”
“When will you Leave?”
“Soon.”
Tyrone swallowed hard.
Was she so eager to leave town?
Sabrina stared at him intently. “Are you sure you don’t want my assistance? I can delay my trip a bit.”
“No. What’s your plan after your trip?”
Sabrina shook her head. “I’m unsure. I’ll figure it out then.”
Seeing that Tyrone’s IV was finished, she beckoned the nurse.
Soon after, the police arrived with Sabrina’s bag. They had confirmed Tyrone and Sabrina’s identities from the ID cards in the
car. After a series of questions, they informed the pair about the culprit.
