When Luna finally came to, she discovered she was in a hospital. Anne sat next to her bedside, her face etched with worry and concern.
"What are you doing here?" Luna rubbed her brows and tried to prop herself up.
Anne immediately helped her up and gently laid Luna down against the headboard. "John and I just came back from our trip today. I received a call from Joshua saying you fainted and rushed over immediately. I didn’t even have time to go home yet!” With that, Anne glanced at Luna with a somewhat displeased look. "I thought it was just a business trip to Sea City. What happened? Why did you faint?”
Luna gave her a wry smile. "It has nothing to do with the trip."
Anne sighed. "I know.” She glanced at the door to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then lowered her voice and said, "The doctor told me that you didn’t get much sleep last night and didn’t eat breakfast this morning. That's why you fainted. What happened? Was it Joshua?”
Luna paused for a moment, then slowly nodded.
"D*mn!” Anne rolled her eyes at that. "How could he let you come into work this morning?"
Luna rubbed her eyebrows again. "He was drunk last
night, so he had no recollection at all of what happened. He blamed me for not getting enough sleep last night. I was so angry that I..."
"You were so angry at him that you decided to get back at him at your own expense?" Anne shot her a somewhat exasperated glance, then reached out to hold Luna's hand. "Luna, no matter what, your health should be a priority. Don’t forget what made you return to Banyan City in the first place."
Luna nodded; she did not forget. The only reason she had returned to Banyan City was so she could get pregnant with Joshua’s child...and save Nigel.
Therefore, it was important that she took care of her health so that the baby would be born healthy as well.
