CHAPTER 06: FUOCO WADE

Mrs. Wade had made up her mind, she was not going to let that poor girl live the life of an orphan in some NGO... fending for herself on the charity of other people. She wanted to give her a normal life and a future she deserves.

Mrs. Wade's husband died just when her daughter was 6 yrs old, and then she lost her daughter as well.... if her daughter was alive...she would have been nearly of the same age as this girl. 

Dr. Andrews was aware about the feelings Mrs. Wade has for that patient on bed number 37.

 He felt an unknown satisfaction in his heart, he knew this was good not only for that Patient but for Mrs. Wade as well. He agreed to help Mrs. Wade incase, she needed any. 

Mrs. Wade also informed Dr. Andrews that she wanted to know the opinion of that girl too, she didn't want to hide anything from her.

 To this Dr. Andrews suggested her to wait for sometime...atleast a month untill that girl recovers to certain extent....so that she would be able to handle it and won't go into shock.

Any kind of shock can be fatal for her at this stage. 

Mrs. Wade agreed with him and went home after it.

As, one more week went by, the speed of Natalie's recovery increased...the dark circles under her eyes were no more visible now...and the corpse looking girl now looked like a fragile angel

...a Beauty for which any king could leave his kingdom just by looking at her once. 

Although, she was still pale and not recovered fully but that didn't let her beauty be hidden anymore.

And due to this Mrs. Wade become even more protective and concerned of her. She made sure no male attendee or doctor with bad intention linger around her or try to flirt with her...but still behind her back people would approach Natalie with malicious intentions.

They would try to speak to her...to appear good to her thinking she wouldn't know......as she was an adult with the brain of a child,but they were not aware that Natalie was much beyond their imagination. 

Even if they take next birth, they won't be able to reach upto her IQ level.

Natalie could read their eyes and intension behind it, so she simply ignored them as if they didn't exist.

This was the best she could, after all she couldn't expose herself by doing anything stupid. 

As  days went by Natalie grew more restless in her mind, she wanted to know about her family and what happened to them but she was helpless!!!

ONE wrong move was enough to blow her cover!!!

But, then she couldn't take it anymore and decided to use Mrs. Wade as her aid.

So, she made a plan and decided to execute it the same day.

That morning....when Mrs. Wade arrived at the hospital, she begin with her usual routine in the hospital.

She picked up her list of duties from the head Nurse's room and went to Natalie's room. It had become her habit to visit her before going to do the routine tasks assigned for the day.

 No only this, she would rush to her side whenever she got a break in-between ( whether it was only of 5 minutes).

That day when Mrs. Wade entered Natalie's room.... she saw the young girl sitting on her bed and looking at the window with a sad face.

Mrs. Wade couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor girl in her heart. She quickly went towards her and kissed on her forehead and asked if she missed her,too.

Natalie nodded and gave her a warm hug that filled Mrs. wade with Motherly love.

When she asked her why she looked sad, Natalie replied in a sad voice"Auntie Wade, I was feeling really bored... I don't remember anything! so, i don't know what to do apart from sitting here. I want to go outside or atleast do something that could let me know about the outside World." 

Mrs. Wade could feel her pain, but she also knew she was still weak and taking her outside was not a good idea. 

 Then, Mrs. wade tried to make her understand to which Natalie nodded and turned her head again to look out of the window. 

Then, she said trying to sound as much dejected as she could " I don't even have something to distract myself with"

To this Mrs. Wade thought of bringing some books or games for her the next day...but what about today?

She can't let her be sad like this, neither could she leave the hospital to buy something for her.

Then something clicked her mind!!!

She took out her phone and downloaded a game from the playstore and gave it to the girl.

Natalie looked at her in surprise!!!

when Mrs. Wade explained to her how to play it, she gave her a tight hug.

Mrs. Wade then left the hospital ward leaving her Phone with Natalie.

As, Mrs. Wade walked out of the room she took a sigh of relief, although her conscience was telling her she was betraying Mrs. Wade but she quitened it by saying she was not harming her, it was just that she was taking her help and would repay her in the future.

She quickly opened the browser and typed "DEVEBRO SAMRAT". It was her father's name and he was a famous personality...so definitely every news related to him would be available on the internet. 

As expected, she saw her father's image appear on the screen and she quickly clicked the link below.

As she read the content, it shook her to the core and the phone fell from her trembling hand. 

Luckily she was sitting on the hospital bed and the phone landed on it, if it had been the floor that phone would have broken into pieces.

Natalie felt as if, someone had taken her soul out of her body, her worst fear came to be true.....HER FATHER WAS DEAD!

She  didn't knew for how long she was sitting there like that, but then due to some noise outside her room,she snapped back to reality.

Natalie quickly wiped her tears and tried searching more about her father and her family, which lead her to a seven years old news link dated 19th of  December, 2014.

Natalie clearly remembered she went to sleep on 18th of December, 2014 only to wake up after 7 years on 21st of September,2021.

So, it was the following day...She was trembling with fear...but decided to quickly go through the news item....as she did...she felt as if something got stuck into her windpipe, causing her to struggle for air. 

The news item said that whole of her family (including her) died in a fire accident that took place at the SAMRAT mansion in Dryden, Ontario.

They said the fire was so huge that it burnt down the nearby trees and houses too. By the time the rescue team could  reach everything was burnt down to ashes and even the dead bodies of the SAMRAT family couldn't be retrieved. 

A foul play was suspected as the fire took place because of a series of bomb blast. The neighbours reported that there were 3 back to back bomb blasts with loud noise which could be heard from miles.

Natalie felt her whole body shaking with terrible agony....but it was soon replaced with an UNTAMED desire for  REVENGE!!!!!!

 Her red eyes looked like ball of fire which could burn anyone just by looking at him. 

Natalie swore she will not let the people behind it die peacefully, she will hunt them down and kill each one of them. 

Her whole family including her relatives were murdered so brutally. 

The enemies attacked her family from behind....when they were unaware!!! She swore she will rip those cowards apart!!!

They must be thinking the entire SAMRAT family is dead...but.....They DON'T know....

 THEIR DEATH WAS STILL ALIVE!!! NATALIE SAMRAT was ALive!!!!!

May be this is the only reason why she was saved and was able to pullout  of her vegetative state after 7 years!!!!

Her brain was thinking so much...that it started aching!!!

She was not able to take so much of pain altogether...but NO...SHE HAS TO BEAR IT!!!...ENDURE IT!!!...FEEL IT!!!....so that she won't feel weak while punishing the Mastermind behind it.

Natalie quickly deleted her search history and lie down on her bed as tears rolled down her eyes...... she slowly fall into a deep sleep.

It was already evening and Mrs. Wade was worried as the young girl was still sleeping.

She didn't even had her lunch. Mrs. Wade didn't want to awake her but she decided to do so only thinking about her health.

She woke up the girl by strocking her Cheeks, gently. Natalie woke up only to see Mrs. Wade worried and then she realised that it was already evening!

She slept for quite too long! 

Upon realising she quickly gave Mrs. Wade a suitable reason that she got tired after Playing that game on her mobile and went to sleep...which Mrs. Wade believed without a suspicion.

Natalie quitely ate her food and took her medicines. Mrs. Wade watched her and felt something was off about her....as if she cried and then went to sleep...but she avoid asking the young girl as maybe...it was she who was overthinking.

In order to cheer her up, Mrs. wade started telling her about her day and how the patient on bed Number 15 picked up a fight with a fellow nurse over a petty reason.

But Natalie was not herself today, she tried her best to put up a fake smile before Mrs. Wade but was failed.

Yes,She was a genius and possessed a higher IQ level but despite everything she was a girl who just got the news of her family being murdered.

 All her false hopes were shattered to pieces. She was an orphan now!!!

She doesn't even know what to do next, who would support her? where would she go? 

she can't keep staying here at the hospital all through her life.

She don't have a degree, neither money, nor family least not even an identity! how would she survive? how would she punish the murders of her family?

Her mind was blasting with all kind of questions when she felt the gentle touch of Mrs. Wade on her cheeks.

She took Natalie's hand in hers and asked " Child, were you able to recall your name?"

Natalie was brought back from her thoughts and immediately nodded in denial.

To this Mrs. Wade Said" what about if we give you a name?" 

Natalie looked at her with confusion. To this Mrs. wade replied " Everyone here calls you with the name 'patient on bed number 37' , I don't like that name.....so what if you don't remember your name? we can give you a new name....a name that you like!!! what say???

To this Natalie said " FUOCO" 

Mrs. Wade looked at her in amazement. Natalie quickly realised what she has done, so she explained " I was playing this game in your phone, and there was this character named FUOCO that i really liked... that's why i want my name to be the same" 

Natalie tried to smile and hide her pain.

Mrs. Wade immediately nodded " Oh, It's such a pretty name!!! Fine we will call you FUOCO from now onwards!!!

Then,she kissed her goodbye and got up to go home.

She smiled in her mind thinking....FUOCO WADE!!!! what a pretty name for my future daughter!!!
