(sorry got distracted)


Philip took her hand and kissed her forehead. 

(That's okay!)


Eliza wanted to talk to her father but she couldn't, and it hurt and upset her. She just couldn't talk, she couldn't move her muscles to talk. A nurse came in to help her try to learn how to speak again.

Alexander kissed her temple as she spoke. "Good job, Eliza." he whispered to her.

Eliza looked up at her father and wept. She knew she wouldn't be able to speak normally ever again and it scared her. He was praising her for being able to make the sounds a baby learning to talk can make. She knew it wasn't meant to seem condescending but it certainly felt that way.

"I love you more than life itself." Alexander whispered to her.

Eliza held both of their hands. She just needed to feel loved right now. She knew she'd never be the same and was afraid her family would stop loving her.
