The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1381

Sky looked completely different from the first time I saw him.

The continuous treatment and chemotherapy had turned this child into skin and bones. His face was sunken.

There was barely any flesh on his cheeks.

I held his hand gently. It was just as bony. He was almost the same age as Munchkin, yet he had to go through this kind of pain and suffering. It made my heart break.

Should I ask Theo?

Maybe I should ask and see if he had any way of arranging a bone marrow transplant as soon as possible. Since I had already decided to help this child, I should find ways to help him get better sooner. This type of ongoing chemotherapy was too painful for the child.

Just as I took out my phone to send Theo a message, Sky woke up from his slumber.

The child was stunned when I was the first thing he saw after he woke up. When he finally reacted, his expression was filled with glee. "You came, Ma'am.”

I nodded and asked gently, "Did I wake you?"

"No, I've been waking up from my sleep a lot recently." Sky looked around the ward. When he saw that his grandparents were not here, he asked, "Did Grandma and Grandpa go eat?"

I nodded. "Do you want some water? I’ll get it for you."

"Thank you, Ma'am, but I'm not thirsty.”

I smiled and held his hand once more.

The sight of the child's bony physique made me sad. "Are you hungry, Sky?”

With a renewed sense of hope, Sky responded seriously, "I'll work with the doctor to get better. Once I get better, I want to eat candies and hamburgers. It's been so long since I had those. Grandma said I can only have those once I'm better."

I smiled and nodded. "Sure, whatever you want. I’ll buy it all for you when you get out. So, you have to try your best, okay?" "Okay." The little kid suddenly thought of something and retrieved a palm-sized notebook from under his pillow. He then handed it to me. “Grandma wanted me to give you this. She said it was my mom's diary. Grandma said you're a good person, and she wants me to say thank you."

I took the notebook and asked suspiciously, "This is your mother's diary?”

Sky nodded. "Grandma said it’s my mom’s diary. I can't read yet. Grandma said to give it to you and that you’ll understand once you read it. She said it'll help you too. But you can't look at it now. You can only look at it once you get home or the bad guys will steal it from you."

Sky grabbed the notebook and put it into my bag.

I did not question him further. Perhaps Amelia's mother had only told him that much.

We continued chatting about some other stuff. After a while, Amelia's parents returned from their meal.
