A month passed by and Sean was back at work. He couldn't delay his return anymore and while he wanted to spend every moment with Emma, knowing that Mina was there still watching her made it a little better. He still went every night that he could and made sure to massage her as the physical therapist instructed in order to prevent her muscles from becoming atrophied. One nurse commented on his loyalty and said , "You must love your wife very much." He only smiled and looked at Emma. The nurse slinked away, slightly frustrated that he was so enamored and not even looking at her. In this last month, Sean had really thought about how to approach the topic of their obviously sensitive past with Emma again when she woke up, but he couldn't find a way without having to physically restrain her. "Maybe to the bed?" he thought slyly. Shaking his head free of any more mischievous thoughts, Sean returned to massaging her legs vigorously.
