Dark Secrets (Thriller)

Chapter 34

ONE YEAR LATER

Neil was taken out of his ward and brought into the private visiting room with no context. When he asked who visited, since he rarely got visitors, he was given no response.

“Just sit down and wait patiently,” his nurse warned him before walking out. Neil complied, admiring the empty room.

The treatment did help him a lot no doubt. His ill feelings toward his mum aren't gone, but he’s learnt to accept the past. What was done was done. He couldn’t control fate. The most he could do was start a new beginning. The visiting room door opened and someone stepped in. Someone he was familiar with. He stood up in shock, confused by the sudden appearance. Another person followed the visitor behind, gesturing to him to calm down. It was Morrie, complying with her promise to visit him once a month. What he hadn’t expected was for her to bring Flora this time.

“It is fine, Neil. I brought her here on purpose,” Morrie smiled. Flora waved formally, before staring around the room.
