Without much thought, Jas Black opened his arms and held Jane Sampson tightly in his embrace, "From now on, if you want to hold you, just say, Jas, hold for a mont. You don’t need to ask if it’s okay."
Jane Sampson softly responded with a "hmm".
Her face was relishing the warmth in his embrace.
Standing before Granny Sampton and Grandpa Sampton’s graves, Jane Sampson clearly recognized this.
In this world, she was nearly left with nothing.
"Jas, Grandpa is gone, Grandma is gone too. Others have daddy and mommy, at least they have a place to go back to, but with grandparents leaving, I only have one path forward."
Jane Sampson gently bit her lips, "And this path can only lead to you."
"If my life is a triangle, before there were Grandpa, Grandma, and you, each standing at a corner, together supporting the triangle of my world. Grandpa left, and it was just Grandma and you supporting it. Now, Grandma is gone too, and you’re the only one left in my triangle."
Jane Sampson’s voice was so soft that if Jas Black didn’t listen carefully, he couldn’t hear what she was saying.
The voice was almost nonexistent.
"Now, it’s only you holding on, Jas, if one day you get tired and don’t want to support anymore, please be sure to tell . Don’t let go quietly and leave quietly, as I would be gradually engulfed, without even a chance to struggle."
"Jas, if one day you want to leave and don’t want to support it anymore, tell . I will reach out my arms on my own and give you the space to leave. I will try to support my world, and I will not burden you."
After saying this, her arms tightened, holding him more forcefully, "Jas, okay?"
At this mont, Jas Black didn’t know how to express his heartache to Jane Sampson, nor did he know how to tell her that in this lifeti, he would never be willing to let her go.
But he knew that at this mont, what Jane Sampson needed was not his promise.
What she needed was his answer.
Jas Black kissed her fevered forehead gently, then nodded, saying, "Okay."
"Thank you." Jane Sampson’s face gently rubbed against his chin, "I believe you."
Jas Black responded softly but didn’t say anything further; instead, he gently held her, providing her the greatest warmth and patience.
It wasn’t until after a long ti that Jane Sampson stepped away from his embrace.
"My head is sowhat hurting. Can you take back to the hospital?" she said obediently.
After speaking, Jane Sampson turned to say farewell to Grandpa Sampton and Granny Sampton, "Grandpa, Grandma, I’m going back to the hospital now. Once I’m well, I’ll co see you again. I’ll take good care of myself so that you, Jas, and Bright won’t worry about . I’ve grown up now. See you next ti, Grandpa and Grandma."
Jane Sampson waved goodbye to the elders’ graves and then leaned against Jas Black, letting him support her as they left the cetery.
Just as Jas Black worried, Jane Sampson’s temperature rose again to over thirty-nine degrees. Once she returned to the ward, the nurse asured her body temperature and was so anxious she was at a loss.
"Little Jane, you have to get better soon. Our colleague is so worried about you." The young nurse administered the injection to Jane Sampson, and seeing Jane lying there quietly watching her busily work, the young nurse had the heart of an old mother, completely worried.
Jane Sampson smiled and responded with a "hmm", "Thank you, and also thank you for the porridge, it was sweet and delicious."
