“Alright,” Ernest agreed without protest.
He added, “If anything happens overnight, ring the nurse. And if Eric’s condition shifts at all, callright away.”
“Don’t worry,” Linda teased with a mock glare. “Do you think I'd forget?”
“Just overly cautious, | suppose,” Ernest replied, rising to grab his coat from the sofa. Slipping it on, he casually
tucked the pencil into his pocket.
Linda’s lips curved faintly, though she feigned ignorance.
In the stillness of the late night, Linda sat beside the hospital bed, a book in hand, her eyes tracing Eric's quiet
features.
When he was this serene, the resemblance to Ernest was uncanny. How remarkable, she thought, that two
people could mirror each other so closely!
“Eric,” she said softly, opening the book on her lap, “The doctor suggested we keep talking to you. I've been

Linda shifted, blinking awake. “Ernest, you're here already? It's so early.”

“Yeah,” he nodded. “I couldn't sleep.”
Twenty-four hours had passed, and Eric still hadn't stirred.
Only two-thirds of the doctor's 72-hour window remained.
Linda’s eyes shimmered with unshed tears. “We'll see what the doctor has to say. It's too soon to give up.”
“Okay,” Ernest said with a nod. What else could he do but stay by his brother's side and support him?
Meanwhile, Hadley was at home, taking a break. She was sorting through ingredients for lunch when her phone
buzzed with Ernest's non the screen. Her pulse jumped.

He paused, then said, “I'm not a doctor, but I've been in his shoes. | believe a reason to fight can work wonders.”
Hadley’s eyes flickered rapidly. “If you believe that, then you'd know I've never been what he needs.”
