Melody knew better than to believe the reasoning that she could be sleeping. Nora had been unconscious for an unfathomable length of time now, if it was a simple sleep she would have woken up hours ago. The healers were likely trying to offer Ben a best case scenario option to cling to in such a heartbreaking time.
Melody also knew better than to crush his hope with such harsh realities. Especially when she would have preferred to cling to the hope herself.
She sat in the empty chair besides Ben, her ribs aching from moving too quickly too soon. "Good. That's uh - that'll be good to talk to them." She didn't think she'd understand more than him, but it would be good for them both to understand what exactly was being done to help their daughter.
