At the hospital, the nurse guided her to the ICU ward, where Neil was kept under observation. Before leaving, coyly, the nurse said, “From the moment they brought your unconscious husband in, he’s been taking your name.”
When Neil opened his eyes, he found Sonia sitting by the bedside. Overcome by regret, he mumbled,
“When the car turtled, I could see my life play in front of my eyes. All I could think of was my wife.” He held her hand, and continued, “I don’t want to spend another moment apart. Can I come back home to you?”
It was a strange moment for Sonia. Since the day he left, all she wanted was for Neil to come back. But now, when he was in front of her, apologising for abandoning her, she didn’t know who he was anymore or who she was either.
“I am glad you are okay. But I’m not that woman you married anymore, who didn’t know how to live without her husband,” Sonia said.
“I have found myself. I hope you would do too.”
