Melanda and Mike Confiding In Each Other

Mike looked up and saw Melanda's charming eyes looking at him. He smiled too, but as he smiled, he cried again. His nose tingled and his throat was dry. He couldn't say a word. The two of them looked at each other yearningly. Melanda's eyes were filled with tears.

"Baby, I thought I would never see you again," Melanda sobbed.

"I know. It's been hard on you, baby. Thank you for coming back. Thank you for coming back for me. I love you," Mike said excitedly. "I'm so happy. I've never been so happy. Thank God!"

"I'm going to call the doctor. I'm going to tell them you're awake and let them check you. I'm going to tell my parents, Mandy and Dave. Everyone was scared, baby. Thank God you're finally awake," Mike said incoherently.

"Wait, Mike. I want to be with you alone for a while. Just a while, okay?"

Who could refuse such a request?
