Chapter 50

"As daisies look beautiful, don't you think?" Ryeon had his hands around his girlfriend's waist. They were both in the backyard, observing the recently arranged garden that Roseanne had spent a whole afternoon organizing.

"Yes, they do," she replied, breathing in the fresh air. "Your mom always makes everything so beautiful."

"It's her way of passing the time."

"How's the physical therapy going?" Lucy turned to face her boyfriend. She saw Ryeon smile softly, sighing.

"We're doing well, but the spasms in the hand muscles will be something that can't be fully repaired. The doctor said they will, at best, lessen with therapy, and she might gain more strength, but she'll never have the movements or strength she had before."

"I feel so sorry about that, Ryeon..."

Ryeon shook his head, sighing as he felt his girlfriend's fingers roam his skin.
