Neomi POV
Jason closed the distance between us, his head moved closer, and I shut my eyes, thinking he wanted to kiss me. I can't remember the last time he kissed me, rather, he jammed his forehead with me with his eyes shut. Silence, like he was reflecting on what I said.
My husband has been in pain all this while, but I never saw his pain. I could do this, I can win my husband back. He squeezed my hands tightly before Valerie made a sound. He released me. I laid Valerie back on the bed and excused myself to the bathroom. Where I cried out my eyes, washed off my face, and returned, but Valerie and Jason were gone. My bag lay open on the hospital bed.
"Where could he have gone?" I began to panic, if he was leaving with her, he should have mentioned it. Something drew my attention- my opened bag. Nyla's samples. My heart skipped when I began to search for it. I planned to check the DNA from the sample later on, but I found nothing.
