AIDEN BLACK'S POVI knew exactly where this conversation was heading to and I wasn't really in the mood for it."Scared of what? Please can we not talk about this right now. I want to take a nap.""Alright then but you know you can't avoid this conversation forever." I knew I was acting like a coward all because of the fear of losing Mia. I laid down on the couch using the extra pillow as a support to my neck.I looked at Mia with a side eye one more time before closing my eyes.I felt someone shaking me and realized it was Audrey."What?" I asked while sitting up and stretching my body."It's late already and I'm kind of feeling sleepy." I nodded my head at her and went outside.I instructed the doctor to provide any available extra bed and some pain killers for Audrey. I don't want her sleeping on the couch because I know she won't be comfortable and she needs all the rest she can get.I went back inside and found Audrey sleeping on the couch.I could tell she was so tired. Few minu
AUDREY'S POVI was having a disturbing feeling all of a sudden. I don't know what it was, but I had a bad feeling that something was wrong somewhere and it wasn't with Mia.I should shake the feeling so I called the house and I was told everything was fine at home. I decided to call Aiden too and when he picked up he told me that the man they went after was a gang member. He and his gang opened fire on them.I felt a sense of panic rising inside of me. I could hear my heart pounding loudly in my chest. "What ?? They were shooting at you? Oh my God!! Are you okay? Where are you?" I asked in panic. " Calm down Audrey .. I'm safe…." he told me. " What are you going to do? If you had known, you shouldn't have gone there." " I'll be on…………" that was the last thing I heard before the line got disconnected. I hope nothing went wrong. I could not help but worry. I paced about in the room forgetting Mia was laying down right there until I turned and saw what looked like tears flowing do
MIA'S POVI couldn't open my eyes but I could hear the voices of those around me. I could perceive the smell of drugs around which only indicated that I was at the hospital. There was just this smell about hospitals that I can't explain. Why was I here? And how long have I been here? I tried to speak, but it felt like there was a huge lump in my throat preventing me from speaking. Suddenly, I heard Audrey's voice. I guess she was on the phone with someone. I wasn't totally sure who it was, until I heard her say something like Aiden being shot at. Without waiting to hear her next sentence, I started screaming and crying inside me. It felt like it was a dream but it wasn't. "Please tell me Aiden is okay, Audrey. Please tell me nothing bad has happened to him. Where in the world is he?" I was hoping to hear Audrey answer my questions, but unfortunately, nobody else can hear me other than myself. Frustrated with this kind of feeling, drops of hot tears rolled down my eyes."My God Mi
AIDEN'S POVAlone with Mia, I started talking to her with the hope that she will respond to me even though I know for certain the chances for that to happen are very slim. I was lost in my own world as I expressed my feelings to her.Suddenly, I heard her sneeze which has never occurred before. I was surprised at first, but immediately it hit me as to what really happened, I was overwhelmed with happiness. I lightly shoved her to see if she would open her eyes but they were still tightly closed. I instantly alerted the doctor who came as soon as he heard what I said to him concerning what Mia just did."Mr Black,did you say you heard her sneeze?" The doctor asked me "Yes doctor. She sneezed while I was talking to her. Why is she not waking up?""Don't worry Mr Black. This alone shows that she isn't far away from us. Keep talking to her, it will help her come out of this soonest. Rest assured, she is totally fine and can wake up at any given time. Her strong will to survive has given
AIDEN'S POV When I heard Mia's scream, my heart almost leaped out. A million thoughts went through my mind. Oh God please let her be okay!. I hurriedly rushed back to Mia's room together with the doctor. We found her trying to stand up while tears were streaming down her face.The gown she was putting on has a blood stain on it."What the hell are you doing? You should be resting Mia." I yelled at her. I didn't mean to but I was so scared. "I'm s-s-sorry….I just wanted to see if I could stand on my own." She said in a soft voice. My expression softened. I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose." Just lay down back and let the doctor examine to see if there are no complications." I assisted her in laying and nodded for the doctor to go ahead.He raised her gown and I almost growled possessively. She was only putting on her panties underneath.I don't want anyone looking at my woman except for me. I knew he was only doing his job. He must have have noticed my uneasiness because I
AIDEN'S POV "Mia's Aunt." "Why aren't you answering it?" Audrey asked.This was a call I have been dreading for as long as Mia lost the baby. I knew I should have called her ever since it happened which was also the right thing to do but my fear wouldn't let me do the right thing."What am I supposed to tell her right now?""I'm sorry to say this to you buddy..but you had it coming. I remembered telling you to inform her when it all started.""So, what are you planning on doing right now?" Audrey asked in concern. She has been calling Mia's phone for days now without any response from anyone.I decided to take the call. I went out of the room and went straight to the car outside and picked it up. "Hello ma'am! So sorry I haven't been able to pick your calls or give you a call back.""What is going on? Where is my niece? I have been calling her line but she hasn't been taking any of my calls either.""That's true ma'am.. Uhm…. The reason for that is because she has been in the ho
ADIEN'S POV"What a minute, don't tell me that Mia can't remember anything? " She asked me with shock written all over her face."About that…….." she cut me off before I could finish what I wanted to say. " Just hold it right there. You are not seriously telling me that my niece has amnesia . She can't remember either of us? My God! This is too much. Just what kind of poison did you people feed her with?""You are misunderstanding the whole situation. It is not like she can't remember anything or anyone. She just can't remember what happened to her, how long she has been in the hospital and the fact that she was once pregnant. The doctor advised us against telling her anything for now until she recovers. He said telling her that can cause her lots of harm for now. Besides, she underwent surgery to remove the remains of our unborn child.""I'm still not happy with this. I want to see her now.""Yes but you have to promise not to tell her anything." I said as I opened the door to get o
MIA'S POVI have been trying to remember what actually happened and why I ended up in a coma at the hospital. I felt like they were hiding something very important from me.Each time I try to remember, I always end up with an excruciating headache that always leaves me holding my head like I was falling.Anytime I asked them the question or brought up the fact that something wasn't right about my memory, they would either avoid the question or tell me to relax.Even though I never said it out loud, I knew that they were hiding something very important and special from me. There has always been this void in me since I woke up. I tried to fill that void up but it was futile. Today after everyone had left,Aiden and I were just conversing.I unconsciously put my hand on my stomach while rubbing on it softly. Just then everything hit me so hard and I started remembering some things.MY BABY!!! I thought. "Oh! No! Aiden I can't feel my baby,.Aiden, I can't feel our baby. I can't feel my b
