The moment they all went into her room, they got the biggest shock of their life.Sebastian was lying on the bed, bandage wrapped around his head and eyes closed."How the hell did he come here when the goons beat him to the verge of almost death ?",Leo thought in his mind, getting nervous."What if he opened his mouth to reveal my truth in front of everyone ? I am sure this old Butler will not waste any second to throw me out of this villa.",Leo gulped in fear thinking about all the possible consequences."How are you feeling now, Sebastian ? ",The Butler asked, coming near to him, holding his hand in his."I am fine now, Grandpa.",Sebastian whispered , opening his eyes slowly."The doctor advised you to take as much rest as you can, and have proper diet and exercise for your early recovery so please don't stress yourself too much.It's not good for your health.",The Butler suggested, squeezing his hand lightly."I will try my best."Sebastian mumbled still his half eyes still open."
After everyone left, Amelia thought to freshen up so was going to stand up when Sebastian held her wrist from behind making Amelia turn in his direction."Do you need anything? Should I call the doctor?"Amelia asked, getting tense."No.. I don't need anything.",Sebastian mumbled softly, trying to open his eyes."Then ?",She questioned, staring at him confusingly."I want to know what has happened with you since the last twenty four hours?",Sebastian asked looking into her blue eyes deeply."Please don't make any excuses or try to hide the truth from me. I request you.",Sebastian requested, before she could deny sharing that to him."Hmm. I will tell you everything but before speaking I want you to promise me that you will not lose your temper and listen to me silently without interrupting me in between.",Amelia looked at him with so much innocence that he could not deny her request."Hmm."He hummed in response, giving his approval to her.#Flashback_Starts_Actually I was so lost when
#Flashback_Continues_"This is what we called life, my child. You will not get everything you desire, maybe because God knows what you are praying for is not good for you.He has his own plan where you have to experience the mess so that when you come out of it you will become the best.Because he heard those conversations behind your back which you did not trust his process.He will never disappoint you in the end.Unlike the human beings who become the reason for our disappointment.",Her father explained, smiling at her."But how will I face them everyday who don't even want to see my face as they feel disgusted watching me ?",Amelia asked sadly."Why do you want to face them ? What's the use of having such people in our life who don't want to see your worth?",Her father asked her back."Because they are family. How can we ignore them?",Amelia questioned , shaking her head in disbelief."If they think of you as their own family member then they never hated you in the first place bec
"If it's your wish then I will definitely give it a try, Dad. After all, after Grandpa it's only you whom I can trust with all my heart , my well wisher.",Amelia said , nodding her head."So now promise me whatever obstacles life will throw at you, you will not act as a coward who will choose to end her life instead of fighting against it.",Her father demanded."I promise, instead of acting like a coward I will be brave to fight against them mustering up all my courage.",Amelia promised smilingly."Moreover, you are going to give your marriage a chance and take a step in improving your relationship with him."Her father declared, cupping her cheeks in his both hands."Yes, I will give my marriage a chance as you have selected your son in law then I must say there would be something special in him after all I trust my father's choice.",Amelia grinned giving him a side hug."But before you start your new journey with him, I want to alert you that your journey with him is not going to be
Hearing his name from her mouth, Sebastian tried to slowly open his half opened eyes and found his head on Amelia's lap.The moment his blurred vision got little clearer than before he recognised Amelia sitting beside him, crying continuously calling his name."Fin...Finally , I found you after searching for you everywhere.",Sebastian stuttered in his trembling voice and fainted."Oh! No..Sebastian wake up please.",She cried witnessing his worst condition."Help..Somebody please help."She screamed for help but as the place was deserted noone was there to hear her pleadings."Oh! God please help me.",Amelia looked at the sky for some help and there her eyes landed on Sebastian's car."I will myself take him to the hospital. But how will I drive? I had left driving after that terrifying accident.",She shivered in fear, remembering her past.She shook her head, dropping the idea of driving the car herself to the hospital.But when she looked at him whose heartbeat was sinking with each p
"Can I meet him now?",Amelia asked with her pleading eyes to which the doctor could not decline."Yes, you can. But try not to disturb them.",The doctor advised. "One more thing, as you are his wife it's your duty to keep an eye on him to not take any type of stress as it will not be good for him.Right now, he needs rest as much as he can and proper care for his quick recovery."She added, looking at her seriously."I got your point doctor. Don't worry I will not give you any chance to complain regarding his health.",Amelia assured her before leaving the place.**Amelia slowly tiptoed inside the room where Sebastian was sleeping and only the sounds of machines attached to him were audible, otherwise there was a pin drop silence there.She came near his bed where he was sleeping after having medications. She sat beside him on the chair holding his hand in hers, watching his face from close."I am so sorry Sebastian. Just because of me, you have to suffer a lot. I have no intention o
"It's not a deal where you have to look after the pros and cons of the project before finalizing it.It's a commitment for life time where we can't choose our friendship based on profit and loss.We have to share our pain, our worries, our fear, our secrets to each other.We will celebrate our happiness together just like friends used to do."Amelia chirped, getting excited."Well, you know in that case, I have already taken a step ahead of you.",Sebastian murmured."What? I mean how ?",Amelia asked feeling confused.Sebastian pointed towards the bouquet of flowers he bought for her especially, to start their new bond as friends but before he could get a chance to give it to her, expressing his ideas, all this accident happened."I wanted to start our friendship by giving you this but now they are shriveled and of no use.",Sebastian sighed signaling towards them.Amelia turned to the direction he indicated and was shocked to see those faded flowers lying there.She stood up and went to
Amelia walked inside the washroom to take a shower and refresh her mind and body which was aching badly.She locked the door from inside with her quivering hands.She intended to take a soothing bath and wash away the weariness of the day. The warm steam filled the washroom, creating a cocoon of tranquility. She began to undress, her thoughts initially focused on the discussion between her and her father.But as the water cascaded from the showerhead and enveloped her, her mind started to drift, carrying her back to a haunting past.In that very moment , memories from her daunting past resurfaced like a relentless tide. She saw vivid images of moments she had long tried to bury deep within her psyche. Her breath quickened, and her heart raced as the traumatic experiences flooded her mind.Amelia's trembling legs gave way, and she collapsed onto the tiled floor of the bathroom. Her body shook with fear, and she felt a weight pressing down on her chest. The sound of running water
