Owen sat down beside Katherine Owen on the couch and pulled her close to him.
"Did he wake you up?" Owen asked as he caressed her face with the back of his hand.
"Yes, it seems that he got bored and wanted someone to play with him." Katherine replied as she stroked Zeus back who was placing his head on her lap.
"He must be, we didn't take out for a walk tonight, what do you think we are going to do now?" Owen asked her.
"Sounds nice, the poor dog was in the apartment the whole day." Katherine said and heard Zeus woofing Indicating that he is happy.
"Then let's get ready." Owen said as he stood up and helped Katherine to stand up and walked towards the bedroom.
After they got ready the three of them left the apartment taking a walk in the street.
"Are you cold?" Owen asked, noticing that the weather was very cold tonight.
"No." Katherine replied and felt him wrap his arm around her waist pulling her closer as he used the other hand to hold Zeus lush.
"I never asked you but do you have siblings?" Katherine asked, she had wanted to ask this question before but somehow she ended forgotten about it.
"Actually, no I don't have siblings, I after I was born my parents focused on making a name for the company get big investors, they didn't have the time to have another child and actually, I'm very glad that they didn't because when I was a little a wasn't a nice child and didn't like to share." Owen replied smiling as he remembered the good days.
"I didn't think that you would be the grumpy kind, you always seem sweet and caring." Katherine said and heard him chuckle.
"Well, not every good man was good when he was a child, but what about you tells me about your childhood." Owen asked and saw the face of her face disappear.
"I wasn't like the rest of the children due to my condition. I always took a seat away from the children as they were playing. I was called blind a lot. In the past, this word was able to make me angry but now it doesn't affect me." Katherine spoke and if she was able to see Own face now she would see how he looked at her with sad eyes.
"I'm sorry that you had to go through that." Owen said as he kissed the top of her head.
"You don't have to be, what happened in the past made me what I am today, I learned that there are a group of people that aren't nice in this life." Katherine said not wanting Owen to feel pity for her.
Owen wanted to speak to her about going to the doctor, and maybe there is a solution or a surgery that might help her see but he felt that it's not the right time to speak to her about something like this.
...
At the hospital, the doctor office.
Damien and Ina were sitting in the office waiting for the doctor to come, it's been two days since she had done the tests and the doctor had called them and asked them to come to the hospital.
Ina sat there anxiously waiting to know what was in the new reports, she looked at Damien who was holding her hand tightly,
"He took too long, should we go and look for him." Ina said as she stood up not being able to set down any more.
"Let's wait for another ten minutes, if he doesn't come I will go and look for him." Damien replied as he looked at her, he wanted to do something for her to stop her fears but he knew right now he couldn't do anything except for waiting to hear what the doctors will say.
Just then the doctor entered with a white file in his hand followed with the nurse.
"I apologize for keeping you waiting." The doctor said as he said down behind his office.
"It's alright." Damien said watched Ina's face become very pale.
"Miss Ina, please sit down." The doctor said, offering her a warm smile.
Ina sat down and looked at the nurse before she looked back at the doctor.
"Miss Ina, I want you to listen to me and be very calm, what I'm about to say to you might sound bad but I need to listen to me carefully." The doctor said making Ina frown.
Damian reached for her hand preparing her and for himself for what about they are going to hear that might change their lives.
"After the long process of tests and scenes that you went through we were able to diagnose your condition, it appears that you have a what is called multiple sclerosis, it's a disease caused by the immune system attacks the protective sheath myelin that covers nerve fibres and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body. Eventually, the disease can cause permanent damage or deterioration of the nerves." The doctor said and Ina didn't hear a word from what he said.
Ina closed her eyes trying to process what she just heard, she was supposed to be angry or crying or shouting but she felt nothing, she just sat there unmoved until she felt Damien hand on her face.
"Ina, honey, look at me." Damien, who was shocked by the news that he just heard, felt scared of her reaction.
"Miss Ina, it may be an incurable disease but it doesn't stop you from leaving your life, with the right treatments and a small change in your daily life you might be able to live normally." The doctor said.
Ina chuckled as she run her hands through her hair." I might live normally or I might need someone help to eat or pick up anything, or go to the bathroom, ARE LISTENING TO WHAT ARE YOU SEEING, IS THIS WHAT YOU TELL ALL YOUR ،PATIENTS." Ina tried to stay calm but she couldn't, how could she when she is about to become a disabled person who will need help with the simplest tasks.
"Ina, please calm down." Damien tried to comfort her but she pushed his hands away and stood up.
"You asking me to calm down, HOW COULD I? HOW?, I didn't deserve this. I didn't do anything wrong in my life." Ina spoke and started to sob loudly.
Damian couldn't stand seeing her like this he walked towards her and was about to hug her but she pushed him away.
"I'm not going to believe anything from the shit that you just said, I will go for another doctor and I found out that your diagnosis is wrong, I will sue you, DO YOU HEAR ME, I WILL SUE YOU." Ina threw the documents that were on the doctor desk on the ground and were about to destroy the whole office but Damien stopped her hugging her from behind.
"Ina, stop please, you are making it hard for the both of us." Damien said as he held her tightly preventing her from moving.
The doctor spoke something to Damien that Ina didn't hear and he nodded his head.
Ina who was crying and sobbing in Damien's arms felt a sting in her arm and felt that she was being injected with something and suddenly her body felt her eyes and body felt heavy and her body collapsed in Damien's arms and he held her tightly in his arms.
Soon after that, she was transferred to a room in the hospital to rest.
"I'm sorry that we had to do that, but she was going through a severe mental breakdown, it's not easy for her to accept something like that." The doctor spoke to Damien who was sitting right next to holding her hands and never left her side.
"I will leave now, if you need anything, you can ask the nurse." The doctor said to give them some space.
Damien bent down placing a lingering kiss between her eyebrows before he pulled away whispering some words to her.
"Don't be scared my angel, I will never leave you no matter what happens." Damien said as he closed his eyes letting his tears fall on her beautiful face.
"We will have two kids, a boy and a girl. We will raise them together and they will take care of us as we grow old. I promise to make you happy. You won't even remember that you are sick, but I need to have faith in myself, and I love Ina." Damien continued to speak as he let the tears fall from his eyes not bothering to wipe them.
They say that a man should never cry but when you are about to lose your loved ones anything could happen.
Damien had been scared seeing Ina like this, she was always so calm and smiling and nothing affected her happy mood, he didn't think that she won't be able to take the news like this and he hoped that whatever is happening with her doesn't affect her mental health.
