Days of our Lives just showed that Abe and Paulina still have love for each other, as they shared a brief but meaningful moment while navigating separate family crises. So much has changed between the former couple in the past few months, but it has done nothing to break the bond they share, even if they don’t want to admit it.
Key Takeaways
- Abe comforted Paulina as she feared for Chanel.
- Paulina, instinctively leaning on Abe, spoke volumes.
- They are not a couple, but the family connection and love are stronger than ever.
Paulina and Abe Put Pain Aside For Comfort
DAYS put Paulina (Jackée Harry) and Abe (James Reynolds) at the hospital, dealing with separate family crises at the same time. While Paulina was focused on Chanel (Raven Bowens) giving birth, Abe was faced with the reality that Lexie (Nikki Crawford) was dying.
One moment, though, had them come together as if no time had passed and they were still married. When Chanel suddenly started bleeding, Paulina feared the worst and freaked out at the nurse station.
Abe instinctively went to her as he saw Paulina filled with worry. Instead of pushing him away, Paulina fell into his arms and told him what was going on with Chanel.
The Emotional Connection Is Broken But Not Gone
There’s no question that the relationship between Paulina and Abe has changed with Lexie’s return. However, the love, emotional connection, and bond they built is clearly still there, and they both let it show at the hospital.
Abe and Paulina have been walking on eggshells around each other since their marriage ended. In the moment when Paulina needed someone, Abe was there without hesitation, and she allowed him to be.
It made sense for them to lean on each other because the feelings and love they have for each other never went away, even though the relationship did. For a moment, the grief, pain, and worry they felt allowed their true feelings to shine through.
Paulina let down the guard she has had up around Abe, and it gave her a sense of security she desperately craved as she feared for her daughter. Abe, amid his own grief, did what he does best: be there for his loved ones even amid his own pain and suffering.
