The night before Bella's surgery, Dorothy didn't stay at Karen's place, but accompanied her mother in the hospital.
She knew that Bella, though acting tough, must have been scared inside.
No matter how it was sliced, surgery was still a scary thing.
"The doctor said your surgery has a high success rate. And in about a fortnight, you should be able to get discharged." Dorothy could only bring up positive things to lighten her mother's mood.
"I know. The chief surgeon came and talked to me yesterday." Bella was required to fast before the surgery, so she had to lie in bed and minimize her movements. Even the amount of water she could drink was limited. "You don't need to worry about me. I'm more worried about you."
As she was wiping her mother's arm, she paused slightly. "I've got nothing to worry about."
"You two are married but haven't had a wedding yet! That guy isn't pulling your leg, is he? He’s legally married to you but not sneaking off with other women behind your back, is he?" Bella's biggest fear was this.
She had been burned before and was naturally more worried about her daughter walking the same path.
"That won't happen," Dorothy knew that in her mother's eyes, no man was a good guy.
"When I was young, I thought so too."
Dorothy didn’t say anything.
"You look just like I did back then! No, I need to have a word with this Kenneth. His parents also need to come over and bear witness." With that, Bella was about to make a phone call.
Dorothy quickly stopped her, "What are you doing? It's late, they're probably resting!"
"It's only 7 pm! And I want to disturb them at inconvenient times to see how sincere Kenneth and his family are!"
