One last time - Chapter 322

“I think I scared him a lot this time.” Silvia actually felt more bad for Kevin. She really had been troubling him for a really long time now.

“It’s alright, I know he doesn’t mind so don’t bother stressing over that. As long as you are healthy and happy, Kevin doesn’t care about other things.” Aunt Julie explained. She very well knew how her son’s character was. Once Kevin started loving someone, he would willingly give up everything for that person but once he stopped loving them, there was no turning back.

Just then Kevin entered the room along with Dr Bailey.

When Kevin saw Silvia talking to his mother, he breathed a sigh of relief. He had been waiting for her to wake up for a really long time but when she didn’t, he decided to go and look for Dr Bailey.

When Silvia saw Kevin, she gave him a weak smile before stretching her hands towards him.

Looking at her misty eyes, Kevin felt a pinch in his heart. He knew she was sad but was only pretending to be okay.

Aunt Julie quickly got up and gave some room to Dr Bailey while Kevin quickly rushed towards his wife.

Kissing the back of her hand, Kevin asked, “Are you fine?”

When Silvia nodded her head and wrapped her arms around his waist, Dr Bailey and aunt Julie quietly left the room to give some privacy to the couple.

After they were gone, Kevin caressed her back and asked, “Are you feeling okay now?”

“Why are you so good to me Kev?” Silvia asked.

Wrapping his arms around her, Kevin kissed the top of her head and sighed. “Because you deserve it and I love you.”

“I am very sorry honey but I promise I’ll be careful next time. I’ll make sure that nothing happens to our baby and-”

Cutting her off, Kevin said, “You don’t have to be sorry honey. Nobody has to be sorry because it’s no one’s fault. All that matters to me is that you are safe and sound in my arms right now. This is what I want Silvia, I want you safe and sound beside me all the time.”

Just then, someone knocked at the door.

“Come in.”

“Hey, I hope we didn’t disturb you both.” Martha asked.

Silvia smiled and shook her head. “No you didn’t, come on in.”

“We bought your favourite chocolates and snacks Sil.” Bella said before placing the bag on the table.

“Thank you so much you guys.”

Sitting beside Silvia, Martha asked, “I hope you are feeling okay now.”

When Silvia smiled and nodded her head, Bella added, “See, I told you that our Silvia is very strong.”

“Sil, what exactly happened that day?” Matt asked.

When Silvia saw his tired face, she frowned wondering why he looked so weird but little did she know that since the day she passed out for the first time, Matt had been working day and night with his team to find clues of what had exactly happened that day but no matter how hard he tried, he got nothing. Even the CCTV footage which was clearly tampered was so difficult to crack through. His team was still working on it and were bound to get results by the end of the day.

“I think we can talk about this later.” Chris suggested.

“It’s alright, I am fine.” Silvia added.

“Babe are you sure? We can talk about it later.” Kevin asked. Though he also wanted to know what had exactly happened that day but he also didn’t want to tire her out.

“It’s alright Kev, I feel alot better now.” After assuring him, Silvia intertwined their hands together and started telling them about everything that had happened that day. Starting from how the little boy had warned her go away before the fire started to how he kept on persuading her to leave and not enter the room.

“You mean that boy kept on asking you to go away until he passed out?” Matt asked.

When Silvia nodded her head, Chris added, “Then it means that the boy already knew what was going to happen but why would he warn you? How did he know you? Did you meet this little boy before?”

“No I didn’t, infact, that was the first day I met him.” Even Silvia found the boy’s behaviour towards her quite strange.

“What happened after that?” Martha asked.

“I carried the little one out and started giving him CPR but after completing one cycle, someone poked me with something in the back of my neck.” Reminiscing what had happened that day, Silvia frowned.

“Who? Did you see his face?”

“No I didn’t, before I could turn around, my body started turning limp and I lost my vision and started turning blurry. No matter how hard I tried I couldn’t see that man’s face.”

“How do you know it was a man?” Matt asked.

“His voice, I heard his voice and he was definitely a man.” Silvia added.

“Voice? Did he tell you anything?” Kevin asked.

Silvia nodded her head and added, “Yes he did but I don’t remember what he said.” Holding her forehead when Silvia frowned deeper, Kevin said, “Alright, don’t stress over it.”

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Silvia murmured, “You are nothing like your mother.”

“What?” Matt asked.

“He said that I am nothing like my mother.” Silvia couldn’t remember what that man exactly said. Everything was in bits and pieces and she could only remember a small portion of what he had said.

When Matt gave Kevin a look, the latter nodded his head.

Their guess was right, SPIRIT was definitely involved in what had happened that day.

“Anything else Silvia? Do you remember anything else about that day?” Matt asked.

“That boy-”

“What about that boy?” Chris asked.

“He was acting a bit weird.” Silvia added.

Pausing for a while, she continued, “He wasn’t scared and looked fearless. He was sitting in the middle of the fire like it’s nothing. Like he isn’t scared of dying and he willingly wanted to die.”
