One last time - Chapter 316

Kevin sighed and helplessly shook his head. His wife surely knew how to use her cuteness as a weapon against him.

No matter how pissed or mad he is with her, Kevin always ended up giving in. There was no ‘Let me stay mad at her for a while’ in his case. Helplessly watching her lay unconscious on the hospital bed for two days straight made Kevin realise how deep Silvia’s presence and impact was on his life. He completely lost his cool and was ready to shove all his principles in the back of his head and do whatever he could to make things right for her. This is why he recreated a ruckus in the hospital. A normal sane Kevin who followed his principles would never do something like that.

Taking off his shoes, Kevin got into the bed and lied down beside her.

Silvia quickly wrapped her arms around his waist, placed her head on his chest and smiled. “I thought you really left me alone.”

“You know that I can’t and you keep taking advantage of that.” Pulling her closer, Kevin sighed, “What do I do with you Silvia? You will really make me go crazy one day. Who told you to enter the building when you knew it was risky? Look I know your profession called for it but you still have a bunch of people who care for you right? Then how can you just ignore everyone, ignore my presence in your life and risk your life like that? You know how worried and horrified I was?”

“I am sorry, I promise I’ll never do anything recklessly in the future.” Giving him a peck on his lips, Silvia snuggled closer.

Kissing the top of her head, Kevin helplessly shook his head. “Silly, don’t scare me like that in the future.”

“Kev.”

“Hmmm.”

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Silvia asked, “Have you ever dreamt of someone who is no more and whom you have ever seen in person or talked to?” The vision of the weird place and aunt. Tili was still very clear in Silvia’s head. She was having a tough time processing the conversation she shared with Aunt Tili in her head.

“What do you mean?” Kevin asked.

Pausing for a while, Silvia continued, “I happened to dream about Aunt Tili when I was sleeping. We shared a decent conversation and she told me a couple of things too.”

Caressing her face, Kevin smiled, “It’s alright, it was just a dream.”

“I know but it felt so real. Do you think I should talk to uncle Jackie about it?” Silvia wanted to pass on the message that aunt Tili left for uncle Jackie but wouldn’t everyone think she had gone crazy if she did that?

“You can if you want to.” Kevin suggested.

“What if uncle Jackie thinks that I have gone crazy?” Silvia asked.

Kevin shrugged his shoulders and answered, “Well, you just told me about it and I don’t think you are crazy. You are just sharing what you saw, now it depends on the other person whether he wants to believe you or not. And that is none of your concern.”

“It’s not?” Silvia asked.

Kevin shook his head and explained, “Absolutely not. You can’t live your life thinking what others will think of you if you do something. You just do what you feel like.”

Silvia chuckled and asked, “Okay, so what if I feel like killing someone?”

“If you think it’s right then why not?”

Smacking his chest, Silvia helplessly shook his head. “You are okay with me killing anyone I feel like just because it feels right?”

Kevin vigorously nodded his head and explained, “You see babe, I have many connections so it won’t be difficult to free you from all the charges. So if you wanna kill someone, don’t hesitate because I have got your back.”

“You are unbelievable.”

“I am just being practical here.”

Stroking her hands in his unshaved jawline and chin, Silvia frowned. “Why didn’t you shave?” She never liked Kevin’s unshaved face. In fact, she hated it. She preferred a perfectly shaved Kevin.

“Oh yes, my wife was unconscious for two days and you expect me to go home and groom myself?” Kevin asked. Forget about grooming, Kevin left Silvia’s side for only fifteen minutes when his mother forced him to take a quick shower.

“I am sorry, I seriously made you worry.” After seeing his messy appearance, Silvia was genuinely feeling sad for him. Though she did not regret saving a life, she did regret acting recklessly. Only if she was a bit careful, Kevin wouldn’t have to be stressed to this extent.

Kissing her forehead, Kevin murmured, “Take some rest.”

Giving him a peck on his lips, Silvia nodded her head, “Hmm, you too.”

…..

Two hours later.

Jackie and Liza quickly rushed to the hospital when they heard that Silvia had woken up.

When Jackie and Liza entered the room to check on Silvia, they found the couple peacefully sleeping in each other’s embrace.

Looking at each other, Jackie and Liza smiled and quietly stepped out of the room.

“We should just let them sleep and come back later.” Liza suggested.

Jackie nodded his head and added, “Yes, that boy hasn’t slept for two days so let’s not disturb them.”

“Do you want to check him out?” Liza asked.

When Jackie nodded his head, both of them made their way towards the next room.

…..

Inside the other room.

With his legs crossed, the little boy was staring at the plate of fruits while the nurse was trying to persuade him to eat more.

“Eat the one that you like and leave the others or tell me what you want to eat, I’ll get it for you.” The nurse had been trying to coax him for about an hour now but the little boy refused to say anything.

When Jackie and Liza entered the room, the little boy lowered his head.

Turning towards the nurse, Liza asked, “What happened?”

“He hasn’t eaten anything since yesterday night. He has to take his medicines so he has to eat something before taking one.” The nurse explained.
