Liu Yiyi didn't sleep at all; she tossed and turned in a shallow, uneasy slumber until dawn. Faint, muffled noises and conversations from the corridor drifted into her room, though she couldn't make out the words. Getting up early, she washed her face, but the red veins in her eyes made her look utterly exhausted. After tidying her clothes, she quietly left the hospital ward.
The morning sunlight stung her eyes. Beneath a clear, azure sky, Liu Yiyi almost thought she saw pale, wispy clouds drifting by. Pulling back the hand she had instinctively raised to grasp the illusory sight, she let out a self-deprecating smile.
Hailing a taxi on the street, she returned to her place. She packed a few changes of clothes for Shu Qiyu, found his favorite iPad, bought some breakfast, and headed back to the hospital. When she opened the door, she found someone she knew all too well already sitting inside.
