Chasing After My Wife Chapter 256
Advertisement
Travis saw her sleeping on the couch. He wanted to call her but he can't seem to find his voice. He felt so weak and even lifting his hand took a toll on him. He didn't even get the chance to look at her for a long time and he fell unconscious again.
Jillyanna was sound asleep from exhaustion and didn't notice his weak movements or his weak call. She slept until the sun was brightly illuminating the world outside. The cool breeze blew the curtains, swinging it to and fro and the birds started chirping, calling their friends and families to join them.
But Jillyanna's eyes wasn't on them. She couldn't seem to hear anything and she felt numb. Her eyes were straight on Travis' hand which was already limply hanging on the side of his hospital bed.
She immediately checked her monitor to see if there was anything abnormal but everything's fine. "Top? Top come inside." she called for the chief of the security who guarded the place at night. Even if Hawk and Savannah was already there, he would not leave until he wakes up to make sure that he won't miss any questions from her.
Top opened the door and saw the panic-stricken face of Jillyanna. "Yes young madam?"
"Last night, after I went to sleep, did anyone come inside to see Travis?"
"No, madam. No one came to visit him."
"Really?" she was still unsure but she felt something was amiss. "Alright, you can go home now. Take good care of yourself and have a plenty of rest."
"Yes young madam. I'll head out now. Take care." Top bowed his head and walked out of the room, leaving the confused Jillyanna by herself.
"It's impossible. I clearly remembered that I put his hand on his tummy." she mumbled softly to herself in disbelief. Still doubting, she placed a gentle kiss on his face and went back to fold the expandable couch. Just as she was roaming around to prepare herself for work, she caught sight of the mini camera she placed under the TV.

"Oh right! I placed a cam to see Travis but I haven't been checking on it lately since mom kept watch on him." she stopped whatever she was planning on doing and pulled out her laptop. She looked for the video recordings and used a time-lapse to see what happened after she fell asleep.
She watched the video intently and ignored everyone who came inside. She knew no one can get inside without passing through Hawk's inspection, so she felt safe.
"What are you watching?" It was Shein who came to find her before going to work. It had been more than a week since he worked with Jillyanna but he would always come to see her first before going to work.
"I'm watching my husband." she replied, almost a whisper because she was so focused on the video.
Shein was about to ask her another thing when he saw Jillyanna's eyes widened. She looked like she saw a ghost or something. "What happened?!" Shein asked in worry and came to sit beside her so he could watch it, too.
Savannah and Hawk were also alarmed to see her reaction specially that she mentioned she was watching Travis.
Jillyanna replayed the video and allowed Shein to watch it with her. In the recording, she clearly saw the moment Travis opened his eyes. He seemed to be saying something but they couldn't hear his voice. And he lifted his hand as if to reach Jillyanna who was sleeping not far from him. It was less than a minute footage and if there wasn't a video, you would think that everything was just made of your imagination.
"Oh my god! Call the doctor immediately." Shein told Savannah who ran out of the door as soon as she heard him. "That was...oh god! We aren't imagining things, right?"

"That is my concern, too. They might think I'm going crazy from being worried all day and that I am starting to imagine things." Jillyanna slouched on the couch and felt helpless."But we both watched it, and you saw it. It wasn't just me. Sigh, I don't want to get any false hope."
"Let's wait and see what the doctor can find." Shein rubbed her hair messily to comfort her. "Don't be upset, I don't want an ugly niece or nephew."
"My baby won't be ugly." Jillyanna made a rebuttal and watched the video again. Not long after the doctors came and walked up to her.
"We didn't get any signal in our station. Did something happen?" The lead doctor asked Jillyanna while the other doctors and nurse checked Travis to make sure that he was fine.
"Can you watch this for me?" Jillyanna gave him the laptop which displayed the emaciated figure of the once fit and good-looking man. She pressed the play button and let the doctor watched it, who had a smile on his lips when the video ended. "It is not my imagination, right?"
"It is not Mrs. Madrigal. This is a good sign for his recovery. Some patients would just wake up instantly as if they were just having a long dream. Some patients would take their time and would wake up for certain amount of time before falling unconscious again. Your husband is the latter case. His body is coping with the damage and adjusting to his recovery. He will wake up and fall unconscious several times. As time goes by, he will have longer conscious time and will recover soon."
A tear fell on the cold floor after relief washed over her anxiety. It was a tear of joy. Her persistent attitude rewarded her with happiness that only Travis can give. She was so happy with the good news.
"Thanks doc. Thank you for helping us." Jillyanna smiled at the doctor while wiping her tears away.
"No problem Mrs. Madrigal. We will have another stimuli test later and we will let you know of the result when you get back from work."
After reassuring her that Travis was safe, the doctors and nurses left with big smiles.

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
