Fight for Love

Slowly but surely, Gio had been cutting Elle out. He had not meant to, but he had been so focused on keeping a strong front for her that he had done it unintentionally, thinking that he was protecting her.

Elle had never mentioned it, but when his aunt Sofia had sat with him right before he left the hospital, it had hit him like a ton of bricks. And now as he followed Elle into the house, his aunt's words were replaying in his head.

'Do not push your wife away Gio, you will regret it'

'She was not just sneaking back into the hospital to share the bed with you, you know. She was your primary caregiver. After a hard night's work she still came in to make sure you were looked after. That is something special. It would be a shame to loose a woman like her just because you are hurting.'

Elle interrupted his train of thought by tapping him on the shoulder and holding up her phone.
