“Where’s Zoey?” was the first thing Daphne asked.
“She’s at the hospital” a nurse said. “She’ll be alright, but you need to go too, for a checkup”
Daphne shook her head. “I feel fine” she mumbled. She looked down and realized she was naked under the sheet. She looked helpless at Cas. He wrapped the sheet around Daphne’s body like a dress and lifted her in his arms.
The crowd parted when he came their way and walked past them.
Twelve segundos later they were home. The door was still open and Cas carried Daphne over the doorstep. He carried her upstairs to the third room on the right, seguinte to the bathroom, and lay her down on the bed. He sank down and Daphne sat up and leaned against the head of the bed.
“I don’t know how you did it, but you saved my life” Daphne said soft, but full of admiration.
“I assume I have” Cas said.
“Now I just know God has sent you to me” Daphne said a little emotional.
“Don’t cry” Cas said helpless.
Daphne conjured a smile. “Don’t worry, honey. I’m crying ‘cause I’m happy. You make me happy”
“Then I’m happy, too” Cas responded.
Daphne took his hand. “I don’t want to lose you. You have to stay with me forever” she insisted.
Cas nodded, not really considering what she was saying.
“Emmanuel, I want you to make me your wife” Daphne said breathless.
