The next few days were incredibly difficult for Livia and Henry. The weight of the truth pressed heavily upon her, and Henry quickly realized he could not leave her alone in this fragile state. Without a second thought, he took time off from his responsibilities to stay by her side, knowing that she needed him more than ever.
Livia was unable to bring herself to go to school or the hospital for work. The mere thought of facing the outside world felt unbearable, so they stayed indoors, wrapped in their own little sanctuary where no one could intrude. They spent their time simply existing together: eating, curled up on the couch, binging Netflix series in comfortable silence. It was as if reality had paused for them, giving her time to process, to breathe, without external pressures.
