Alaric sat next to Ariana who was stil asleep on the operation table. His right hand was caressing her left hand that had the drip inserted through her vein.
In the middle of the night, the sound of some animals were heard from where they sat. It did not bother him much.
"Alaric, why don't you go and rest. She is asleep. I took out the bullet from her. She'll wake up tomorrow feeling better" the doctor said and placed a hand on his shoulder.
He removed her hand gently and smiled at her, "Go home. Thanks for helping her. I'll stay by her side till she wakes up"
The pretty looking doctor sighed and nodded, "She must be someone special to you. I never seen you care for a woman like this. What makes Ariana Brown so special?"
She said in a mocking tone and looked at Ariana with a smirk, "You do know she is now Stuart Dawson's girlfriend. He has eyes for her, only her, for many years"
