Chapter 679:
Remembering Carol, Rachel had Jeffrey send a message. “Carol, I've been up in the forest with poor cell service. I'll contact you in a few days once I'm back."
Carol let out a breath of relief when she saw the message.
"Alright, take care. I'll be waiting for you to come back soon."
Over the next few days, Rachel remained in the hospital, and Jeffrey took great care of her.
He wasn't the fastest, but he made sure everything was done properly. She lay in bed and let out a soft chuckle. "Jeffrey, it feels like you've been the big brother lately, and I'm your little sister."
Jeffrey blushed a little at her words.
But then, he looked at her seriously. "You've done so much for me as my elder sister in this life. If there's a next life, I'll make sure I'm born first so I can be the big brother and protect you instead."
Rachel's face lit up as she held out her pinky. "Alright, pinky swear. Forever and ever."
It was such a simple, childlike promise, yet in that moment, it felt warm and comforting.
Rachel had a brief stay in the hospital to recover.
She originally hoped to regain her strength quickly so she could join Jeffrey on a few last adventures, as it might be their final trip together.

But Jeffrey wouldn't hear of it.
"Take your time to rest. I've seen all I wanted to on this trip. Let's head home," he insisted.
Rachel experienced a twinge of guilt, aware that he might have abbreviated their travels for her.
"I'm sorry if I've ruined your trip."
Jeffrey comforted her. "Not at all. I had a great trip. Being with you makes even the simplest journey back a delight."
"Is that truly how you feel?" she asked, her face lighting up with a smile.
"Absolutely, wherever you are is my home."
With that settled, they began their journey back.
This illness had brought a stark realization to Rachel-her days were likely numbered.
Once home, she sat down with Yvonne and shared the details of her health complications.
