Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 153
Regardless of Cesar’s fate, she was determined to stay.
“Grandma, we will wait here with you,” declared Tyrone.
Noting their resolve, Wanda fell silent.
Two hours later, the red light above the operating room’s door switched to green.
At the same time, Tyrone, Sabrina, and Wanda sprang up, bracing for the doctor’s report at the operating room’s entrance.
The door swung open.
“Lynch, how’s my grandpa?” Tyrone inquired immediately, his voice shaky and choked up.
Sabrina was silently observing Lynch, her hands folded across her chest.
Peeling off his mask, Lynch responded, “The surgery went well. He will need a couple of days in the ICU. If there’s nothing else,
he will then be transferred to a regular room.”
Sabrina’s countenance finally softened into a smile, tears trickling down as relief washed over her.
“I appreciate your help, Lynch.”
Then Cesar was wheeled into the ICU.
Sabrina’s heart wrenched at the sight of a still Cesar in the bed.
Just days ago, he was gleefully engrossed in a game of chess with her, now he Lay unconscious.
They all accompanied him to the ICU.
A doctor then cautioned, “The patient needs peace at the moment. Please maintain silence.”
“Thank you. We will,” Wanda acknowledged.
“Not a problem. Let us know if you need anything else. I’ll leave you be.”

After the doctor departed, Wanda said, “Cesar is doing well. You can rest easy, You’ve been waiting here for a long time. Go
back and have dinner.”
“Grandma, you’ve been here just as long. Make sure to look after yourself too. We can’t afford for you to fall sick.”
“Sabrina’s right. Let me escort you home, Grandma. Grandpa will be asleep for a while. You should rest and be ready to greet
him when he wakes up,” Tyrone suggested.
“Indeed, Grandma. Let’s wait for Grandpa to wake up. We’ll come get you as soon as he does. Does that sound good?” Larry
chimed in.
“Alright then.”
“Great, I’ll get you home, Grandma. Tyrone, Sabrina, stay here with Grandpa. I’LL return soon after dropping Grandma home,”
Larry offered, helping Wanda to her feet.
