A Life For A Life

"One more baby." Zach coaxed softly.

Eliana smiled and opened her mouth, allowing Zachary to feed her.

"I can't eat anymore, Zach."

Zach smiled, feeling content that at least she was finally eating and smiling. Slowly, colors were returning to her face, and even though there were times he found her in a daze, he was still happy that she was slowly coming out of her grief.

Zach kept the food aside and opened up a bottle of water for her to drink.

Eliana drank it and was already feeling so full. Zach was truly persistent in having her eat, and to please him, she ate despite not feeling like it.

The couple heard a knock on the door and Zach asked the visitor to come in.

Ryan came inside with a bouquet of roses "Beautiful roses for a beautiful woman."

Eliana accepted the rose with a smile and inhaled the smell. "Thank you, Ryan."

"Anything for you, sister-in-law."
