Chapter 203 Trying To Help Him

• Lilly’s POV
• The past five days since Callum woke up have been nothing short of a rollercoaster—a messy, frustrating, infuriating, yet somehow heartwarming ride. Every time he tries to talk, the frustration rolls off him in waves. His speech is a struggle, slow and halting, but he’s determined. He can manage small words now, and it takes him almost a full minute to get out, “I love you.” But he’s doing it. He’s fighting, and I’m here for all of it.
• I haven’t left his side once, except to shower and change my clothes—a feat, considering how hard it is to peel myself away from him. I’ve been sleeping beside him when exhaustion hits, curled up in the awkward hospital bed. And yet, through it all, he still manages to look annoyed every time I try to help him.
