Chapter 57 Elic Meets Faith
- She could see that he was struggling. It was more like he wanted to tell her what was happening but at the same time he did not want to say it.
- So she suddenly said to him, "whatever it is Mr Stewart, it is not worth you losing your life. If Lisa was able to hit you on the head with this." She pointed at the pieces of the side lamp on the floor and continued to say, "then she has gotten to a stage where there is nothing you can say or do to stop her from achieving what she want. Forget about her for today and focus on your wife. She needs you to stay by her side, you also need to get some rest. Because we do not know what will happen tomorrow at the hospital. The only thing I am sure of is that your wife will need you so save your strength for her. Forget about Lisa for now, she is an adult. I have seen you raising that child, I have seen you calling her to order when she has done wrong. Whatever has become of her is not your fault. Do not beat yourself up because of what she has become. She has chosen this life for herself and she will remember you when she hit the wall, it js already in front of her. Very soon, she will come back to you crying and begging you to help her out."
- Those words were sort of a comfort or a healing remedy to him. He needed to hear something like this. He shook his head and said, "aren't I glad to have you in my life and I hope that I will still have the strength to do a very big farewell party when the time comes for you to go back home. You have been a very good helper to me. In fact maybe I would be the one lying down on that bed instead of my wife or maybe I might be dead already. But I am alive because you have been giving me an ear and a shoulder to cry on."
