Love Unspoken

Despite her intent, Kyle Astor intervened. "Quinn," he began, "I've brought some food. There's no need for you to cook."Quinn halted her movements, casting a second glance his way.

Unperturbed, Kyle pressed on. "Alexander's out of town on business. The others won't be home either, so there's no need for all this fuss. "Alexander's absence struck a chord. Quinn locked eyes with Kyle, searching for the truth in his gaze.

After a moment, she set her knife down with a slow, deliberate motion.

She reached for her phone, fingers flying over the keys as she posed her question: [Who did he go with?] Caught off guard, Kyle stuttered, deliberately avoiding Quinn's penetrating gaze. The answer was painfully obvious.Getty. A flicker of emotion passed through Quinn's eyes as she glanced over the array of dishes. Her lips pressed into a thin line before she turned on her heel and exited the room.

Swiftly, Kyle set up the food he had brought, watching her eat from a distance.She sat at the dining table, consuming her meal in silence as if nothing had transpired.

Her demeanor was neither angry nor sad. The tranquility, the silence, left Kyle with an inexplicable sense of unease, a bubble of frustration in his chest that refused to dissipate.

Upon finishing her meal, Quinn offered her thanks to Kyle.He hastily cleared the remnants of their meal and made his escape from the villa.

The simple act of delivering a meal had left him agitated.

He wondered how Quinn could endure this daily routine without succumbing to despair.Quinn's gaze drifted to the clock on the wall-it was half-past nine.

She picked up a notebook, staring at the blank pages, her mind a whirlwind of uncertainty.She remained on the couch until dawn.

In the morning, Dr. Woods arrived bearing her medical report, hovering at her side as if he had something to say.Quinn looked up at him, her anxiety mirroring his own. Seeing his expression, her heart sank.After a moment of silence, Dr. Woods handed over the report.Quinn accepted it with trembling hands and unfolded it. Upon reaching the final diagnosis, she closed her eyes.She took a full minute to mentally prepare herself before shifting her gaze downward to the final results. The words "essentially confirmed" caused her fingers to slacken, the report slipping from her grasp to float gently to the floor.

Dr. Woods took a seat beside her, pulling out several bottles of medication from his bag. "Quinn, these are prescribed by the hospital.

They won't cure you, but they will help alleviate the symptoms and slow the progression of the illness.""Doctor Smith suggested you return to the hospital for another check-up.

Honestly, the illness isn't as dire as you fear; there's still a chance for recovery," he added, his voice tinged with cautious optimism.

Even as he spoke, Doctor Smith seemed unsure of his own reassurances. After all, were there truly any cases of complete recovery? His words seemed more of a consolation for Quinn than anything else.

Quinn pursed her lips, her gaze fixed blankly on the rows of pill bottles on the table."Try to write things down whenever you can," Doctor Smith continued, his tone attempting to convey comfort. "Review your notes daily. It's a method that can aid your treatment."

Quinn nodded slightly, her commitment to his advice questionable at best."Most people use a voice recorder or make videos, but for you... I think it's best to stick to writing," he added."Should you really keep this from Alexander?" she found herself asking.

At her words, Quinn snapped back to reality, shaking her head frantically, pleading with him not to disclose her condition to Alexander."Ahhh, but what will you do if you don't tell him? Staying at home every day isn't safe..." Doctor Smith began, but Quinn was already shaking her head vehemently. She typed rapidly on her phone: [Let's not tell him for now. It's not so serious at the moment, I still remember most things.]Doctor Smith opened his mouth to respond but found himself at a loss for words.
