In Which She Desires

He continued, "This refers to the fact that last night was one of the nicest nights we've had since we've been on board. We would have gone to night concerned for the safety of our wives and children if it weren't for the fact that you came to our rescue. You have established a sense of calm and composure within everyone of our hearts. You have been successful in gaining the support of the most of the crew, with the exception of Hennessy. 

And last night, Lisa, I had the finest dance of my life, and I'm three hundred and fifty years old," Paul boasted to Lisa, to which Lisa responded with laughter. "And last night, Lisa, I had the best dance of my life," "And I have to tell you, Lisa, that last night I had the most amazing dance of my entire life."

The words "I was so inebriated last night" were accompanied by Lisa's infectious chuckle.

These were the words that Mona muttered in a disappointed tone as she lowered her shoulders to the ground. "That's something I'll miss as well."

"Mona, there is absolutely no need in carrying on like this. Lisa reassured Mona, "Don't let this get you down, my love," as she lifted Mona's chin with her finger. "Don't let this get you down, my love."

Mona appeared to have massive tears on the corner of her eyes as she looked at her, and she seemed to be staring at her while doing so. "Promise?" questioned Mona. Her eyes, which appeared to be made of glass, shone with a reflection of the light.

It took Lisa a time to catch her breath, and the idea of having a conversation with John after what had just happened made her feel vulnerable and exposed. She was the type of lady who set clear limits for herself but at the same time was able to put others around her at ease and give them a sense of belonging in the space they shared with her.

She questioned her own sanity by asking, "John...?" "He is not like the other people in any way. Not like anyone else that I've met before."

"Exactly what is it, Mr., what is it?" John was the one who made the inquiry.

To tell you the truth, not much at all. I am not allowed to reveal the details of her personal life because they are private. The physician stated that there was no reason to break the patient's confidentiality and that doing so was unnecessary.

John managed to keep his composure and say "Alright" despite the impulse to roll his eyes. This doctor has never been one to show respect for people in charge, and despite the fact that he is the most powerful officer on board, this continues to be the case.

"Can I walk?" Immediately, Lisa questioned it.

"Yes, Lisa. After providing his reassurances, the doctor left the examination room. He told her, "You can do all that you used to do," and she believed him.

Lisa removed the bed covers, positioned her legs on the edge of the mattress, and prepared for the inevitable fall by bracing herself. Her balance was off as she walked about. Because John was holding her hand, she was able to keep her poise during the entire scene.

"Walk," he said.

She started to move ahead by putting one foot in front of the other until she was walking. She did this until she reached her destination. Her grin spread across her whole face and brightened everything up. She cried tears while smiling at the same time, and she did both with her eyes closed.

John made the observation that in the long run, things would work out for the best.

After giving a satisfied nod, Lisa wiped her face and then smiled. "You have a valid point."

To begin, John uttered the word "Now."

"And I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life for saving my life. Lisa intervened and remarked, "Gosh, I owe you a large one." He was cut off at that point.

His response was, "You don't owe me anything," and he emphasized this point. The speaker then continued, "However, I feel as though I ought to truly apologize to you."

The moment Lisa started to respond, he cut her off and hushed her, saying, "Don't." "I am well aware that you would argue that there is no need for me to apologize because it was my actions that resulted in you being spared from death. It does not. "The night before, what exactly happened was..."

She added, "Forget about what occurred last night as you walk towards me," as she got closer to him. "I have previously completed this step."

"Lisa…"

"John…"

As tears streamed down her delicate cheeks, Mona made a frantic grab for Lisa's hand in an attempt to comfort her. "I shall honor my word, Mistress. I have absolutely no interest in moving from this location."
