Elyse, slightly puzzled, asked, “Why are you tellingall this?”
George spoke calmly. “Sman wantedto tell you this. He's concerned for you but can’t protect you
himself, so he sentto deliver the message.”
Elyse, startled and uneasy, asked, “Who are you talking about? Who do you think it is?”

George replied, “Someone who protects his daughter through dreams—who else could that be?”

Elyse covered her mouth, tears filling her eyes. “Perfect,” she whispered.
George continued, “Even your dad was confused when it cto relationships. Who among us is flawless? We
all have our shortcomings.”
Elyse nodded, as though she understood. “I get it.”
George studied her and said, “You don’t really understand just yet. You think you do, but remember to dig deep
into your heart. I'll be waiting for the good news.”
He added, “I've said what | needed to. Get srest.”
“Okay. I'll cback tomorrow,” Elyse said, standing up.
“There's no need to ctomorrow. Do what you need to do. Don’t trouble yourself with visitingagain,”
George replied. He locked eyes with her. “When you've truly figured out your own feelings, cback. I'll be
waiting.”
Elyse stood in silence for a moment, unsure. Finally, she bowed slightly and said, “I'll figure it out and give you
an answer.”
George nodded, then waved her off before settling back in bed and pulling up the covers. He prepared to sleep.
Elyse left the hospital room. As she walked down the hallway, Edward crouched by the door of the new room,
sneaking a peek inside.
Curious, she asked, “What are you doing? And Anthony? Our conversation’s over, so you should head out.”
Jayden, noticing Edward's sneaky behavior, replied, “Looks like Anthony's found his match, and Edward's spying
on him.”

“Anthony’s going to get lucky,” Elyse said, suddenly excited, and she joined Edward in spying.
Edward, realizing she couldn't see clearly, shifted over to make space for her.
Elyse leaned casually against the doorway, her eyes fixed on Anthony, who stood awkwardly behind a nurse.
The nurse busied herself with tidying the bed, but Anthony, usually so confident, held a chocolate bar in his
hand, looking unsure of himself, as if trapped between wanting to offer it and being too shy to do so.
With a soft chuckle, Elyse whispered, “I can’t believe it. Anthony, nervous? For someone as carefree as him, it's
strange to see him hesitating over something so simple.”
Edward, standing beside her, grinned knowingly. “Not strange at all. Love has a way of making even the boldest
feel uncertain.”
Just then, the nurse finished her task and turned, her gaze landing directly on Anthony, who froze.
