If this were back in the day, Steven would've just shrugged off these questions. He used to think that marriage was strictly between him and Hannah and had nothing to do with their social circles. But only recently, had he realized that the environment also mattered a lot.
If his friends and family didn't accept Hannah, especially his parents, Hannah, no matter how strong she was inside, would feel insecure.
On this topic, both of them didn't say anything more, and just silently puffed on their cigarettes. After finishing his cigarette, Steven put out the butt. "Dad, you guys promised you’d take Hannah away. Can I still visit her?"
Jeo said, "Ask Hannah's mom and see if she agrees."
Just then, Pandora came out. "Hannah's asleep. Don't wake her up."
So, this is her agreeing.d2
"Thanks!" Steven couldn't wait and rushed into Hannah's hospital room.
Jeo wiped away his tears and looked at Pandora with worry. "She..."
Pandora said, "She's fine. If you're not feeling well, go rest in the room they've arranged. I'll wait here, and if Hannah wakes up, I'll be here."
Jeo held Pandora's hand tightly. "I know you're really upset. Just let it out, and cry if you need to."
Pandora said, "You think everyone is like you, who cries at the drop of a hat. Hannah got that from you. She cries easily."
Jeo said, "Kind people often cry easily."
