    As we left the Rochester estate, I could feel my chest loosening up as if the air was being put back into me. Finally, I’d altered the course of my previous life! For the first time, I looked forward to what my future would bring.


    After getting into the limo, I took onest look at the Rochester estate. I was there for over thirteen years in my previous life, and it left me nothing but pain and death. I said a final farewell to myself, allowing my heart to finally release the hurt. Now, all that was left was fury. As soon as my husband regained his consciousness, I would destroy the


    Rochester and Brooks.


    We arrived at the estate a little after 2:30PM. I informed Ma and Theo that I would like


    to visit Kai. For some reason, my heart was aching to see him. By now, my stomach was roaring from hunger. Ma immediately grabbed my hand; what do you say we all have some lunch before you visit Kai. Her eyes were bright and filled with joy. I nodded in


    agreement.


    As soon as we entered the foyer, I could hear Ka’s squeal of excitement.


    “<i>Sister</i>–<i>in</i><i>–</i><iw</i><i>!!! </i><i>She’s </i><i>here</i><i>!!</i><i>” </i>


    I couldn’t help butugh as she ran towards me. We hugged each other tightly as Grandpa Teddy entered the foyer. I couldn’t help but feel there was a difference in their energy towards me. It was as if their love for me grew overnight.


    “<i>There </i><i>she </i>is! <i>What </i><i>do </i><i>you </i><i>say </i><i>you </i><i>go </i><i>and </i><i>wake </i><i>my </i><i>knucklehead </i><i>grandson </i><i>up </i>so <i>this </i><i>family </i><i>can </i><i>be </i><iplete</i>.<i>” </i>


    Even though he chuckled, I could hear the faint sadness in his words. Everyone was coasting; praying Kai would finally wake up. I wanted to help in any way I could, I owed the Christiansens everything! I wouldn’t let them down!


    I smiled at Grandpa Teddy.


    <i>“</i><i>That’s </i><i>the </i><i>n</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>


    After lunch I felt energized! The Christiansens went all out! I couldn’t remember thest

    time I’d ate that good. After getting settled in, I headed to the hospital to see Kai. Ma had given me a key for the VIP floor.


    <i>“</i><i>Now </i><i>I’ve </i><i>already </i><i>updated </i><i>the </i><i>hospital </i><i>staff</i><i>, </i>so <i>you </i><i>have </i><i>full </i><i>clearance</i><i>. </i><i>Cameron </i><i>will </i><i>be </i><i>there </i><i>to </i><i>greet </i>you <i>since </i><i>it’s </i><i>your first </i><i>time </i><i>by </i><i>yourself</i>. <i>This </i><i>is </i><i>your </i><i>own </i><i>personal </i><i>key </i><i>to </i><i>enter </i><i>the </i><i>VIP </i><i>floor</i>.”


    <i>“</i><i>You’re </i><i>not </i><iing </i><i>with </i>me<i>?</i><i>” </i>


    Ma smiled gently.


    <i>“</i><i>I </i><i>think </i><i>Kai </i><i>would </i><i>appreciate </i><i>some </i><i>alone </i><i>time </i><i>with </i><i>his </i><i>fiancé</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>


    I blushed at the thought of being alone with Kai. Why did I feel so shy all of a sudden? Brushing those thoughts away, I headed to the hospital.


    Upon arriving, I was immediately greeted by Cameron. With a warm smile he shook my


    hand.


    <i>“</i>Ms. <i>Teagues</i><i>, </i><i>it’s </i><i>a </i><i>pleasure </i><i>to </i><i>see </i><i>you </i><i>again</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>


    I smiled inwardly, Ma must’ve asked him to refer to me as Teagues instead of


    Rochester.


    <i>“</i><i>You </i><i>as </i><i>well </i><i>Cameron</i><i>. </i><i>I </i><i>trust </i><i>you’ve </i><i>been </i><i>well</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>


    “<i>I </i><i>have</i>.<i>” </i>


    He introduced me to all of the staff and informed them by word of House Christiansen I would be privileged to any medical updates regarding Kai. As we got closer to the room, Cameron paused.


    <i>“</i><i>I’ll </i><i>be </i><i>taking </i><i>my </i><i>leave </i><i>now </i><i>madam</i>. <i>I </i><i>only </i><i>wanted </i><i>to </i><i>make </i><i>sure </i><i>your </i><i>first </i><i>visit </i><i>went </i><i>smoothly</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>


    I nodded and thanked him for all of his help. My heart started to pump rapidly as I entered Kai’s room. The nurse had just finished checking his vitals. Slightly startled as I entered, she quickly greeted me with a smile.


    <i>“</i><i>You must </i><i>be </i><i>Ms. </i><i>Teagues</i>, <i>the </i><i>young </i><i>master’s </i><i>fiancé</i>. <i>It’s </i>a <i>pleasure </i><i>to </i><i>meet </i>you.”

    I smiled brightly as I introduced myself properly.

    <i>“</i><i>You’ll </i><i>be </i><i>happy </i>to <i>know </i><i>Master </i><i>Christiansen’s </i><i>health </i><i>has </i><i>improved </i><i>significantly</i>. <i>We’re </i><i>noticing </i><i>a </i><i>high </i><i>increase </i>in <i>his </i>brain <i>activity </i><i>that </i><i>we </i><i>haven’t </i>seen since <i>his </i><i>arrival</i>.”


    I beamed with joy! Kai was trying to wake up! I just had to figure out what the right button would be. On the car ride back to South Bay, I’d decided to order some medical books on neurology and brain development. I was hoping I could find some assistance in those books to point me in the right direction.


    I pulled the recliner chair close to Kai’s bed and sat down. It was amazing, everything about him was perfect. His beautiful cream colored skin with the slight natural blush. His almond shaped eyes, his dark hair with hints of brown. He was so handsome. My heart started to speed, and I began to feel guilty.


    Here Kai was lying in aa, and my mind was wondering to unsavory thoughts!!! My ears began to redden from embarrassment. In an attempt to get my mind out of the gutter, I began to speak to Kai. I read in one of the books I ordered online thata patients can often retain brain activity if they have constantmunication.


    <i>“</i><i>I’m </i>not <i>sure </i><i>if </i><i>you </i><i>remember me</i>, <i>but </i><i>I’m </i><i>Grd </i><i>Teagues</i>. <i>Your </i><i>new </i><i>fiancé</i>. <i>Please </i><i>don’t </i><i>be </i><i>angry </i><i>at </i><i>your </i><i>parents </i><i>for </i><i>setting </i><i>this </i><i>up </i><i>without </i><i>your consent</i><i>! </i><i>I </i><i>promise</i><i>, </i><i>I’ll </i><i>do </i><i>everything </i><i>in </i><i>my power </i><i>to </i><i>be </i><i>a </i><i>wife </i><i>worthy </i><i>of </i><i>House </i><i>Christiansen</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>


    I smiled brightly at my soon to be husband as I told him about myself.


    “So, <i>I </i><i>know </i><i>I’ve </i><i>been </i><i>introducing </i><i>myself </i><i>as </i><i>Grd </i><i>Teagues</i><i>, </i><i>but </i><i>my </i><i>birth </i><i>name </i><i>is </i><i>actually </i><i>Rochester</i>. <i>There’s </i>a <i>reason </i><i>I </i><i>go </i><i>by </i><i>Teagues</i>…<i>that </i><i>I’ll </i><i>save </i><i>for </i><i>when </i><i>you </i><i>wake </i><i>up</i><i>. </i><i>The </i><i>stories </i><i>I </i><i>tell </i><i>today </i><i>will </i><i>be </i><i>filled </i><i>with </i><i>nothing </i><i>but </i><i>love</i>.‘

    I spent the next few hours telling Kai all about my life growing up with my mother Diana.


    <i>“</i><i>And </i><i>when </i><i>I </i><i>yed </i><i>my </i><i>first </i><i>sonata</i><i>, </i><i>you </i><i>should </i><i>have </i><i>seen </i><i>her </i><i>face</i>. <i>The </i><i>tears </i><i>instantly </i><i>swelled </i><i>up </i><i>her </i><i>eyes</i>. <i>My </i><i>mom </i><i>was </i><i>so </i><i>dramatic</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>


    I smiled lightly thinking about my mother. She loved and supported everything I did.


    It was about 7:40pm when I received notification that my car had arrived. I decided to go home a little early today, spending all of this time with Kai inspired me topose. I leaned over and kissed my fiancé lightly on the cheek. For a brief moment, I could have

    I stood up and stared at him for a few more moments before leaving. Smiling brightly, I bid him a good night.


    “I’ll <i>see </i><i>you </i><i>tomorrow</i><i>, </i><i>this </i><i>time </i><i>with </i><i>my </i><i>violin</i>.

    When I arrived home, the family was all in the grand room. Ma instantly popped up. A smile brightly on her face.


    “<i>Did </i><i>you </i><i>enjoy </i><i>yourself </i><i>my </i><i>dear</i>?”


    I couldn’t help but disy a huge smile, I actually did enjoy myself. I haven’t had a talk<fn67f4> The rightful source is find?novel</fn67f4>

    Everyone grew quiet as they waited to hear my idea.


    Theo spoke softly.


    “<i>Whatever </i>idea <i>you </i><i>have </i><i>my </i><i>dear</i><i>, </i><i>you’ll have </i><i>our </i><i>full </i><i>support</i>.


    I smiled brightly at my new father–inw.
