Her Redemption

Chapter

45

Three days later*

The door opened and Diana walked in. Her eyes were swollen and puffy from crying. She walked slowly to where Liam was lying on the bed. His eyes were closed as she sat on the chair that was beside the bed. She stared at him carefully and placed her hands on hers. It wasn't easy but she was able to control herself from crying. She doesn't want to him be uncomfortable. The doctor said he was getting better but all she wanted was for him to wake up. He had been unconscious since three days ago.

After work every day, Samantha and Kenneth would come to check up on her to see if there was any improvement in him.

"Please, wake up now Liam. I am scared. Even though the doctor said you are already getting better..." She sniffed.

"I would only accept you are getting better if you wake up. That's when I will be at rest. Life hasn't been easy without you, my love. I miss you so much, Liaison." She said and planted a kiss on his cheek.

She bursts into tears again and this time she covered her mouth and placed her head on the bed and wept like a baby until she began to notice some movements on the bed. She stopped for a moment and raised her head just to see Liam's eyes open. She wiped her tears immediately.

"Liam! You are awake!"

"Are you okay? My love." She said possessively.

"Please answer me."

Liam tried to talk but he realized that he couldn't talk. He tried to lift his arms but nothing could be moved. Diana was scared thinking to be was paralyzed.

"Liam. Can you hear me?" She asked.

"Please say something!" Diana said.

Liam opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out again. Diana knew she needed to get help from the doctor.

"Doctor!" She called and rushed out of the ward. She came back with Doctor Rosales and a nurse.

The second nurse told her to stay outside. She obeyed without protesting. She prayed and hoped that he would be okay. Ten minutes later, the doctor came out and addressed her.

"Doctor. How is he?" She asked almost impatiently.

"He is okay now. He just needs to undergo the therapy together with the drugs we would be prescribed for him. All will be well."

"For how many days would he undergo the therapy?" She couldn't help but ask.

"Days? No. Since it is a physical occupational speech therapy. It will take up to two months"

"Two months? What?"

*During the two months*

Diana sat beside Liam as he gets well. She was taking care of him as expected. Liam smiled. "You... look... really... beautiful." He stuttered.

"Oh my gosh! Did you just talk? Wow! You are getting better my love." She said and smiled.

Liam smiled too. He loves her so much.

She checked her wristwatch it was time for him to use his drugs and sleep.

"It's time!" She announced.

She took the drug and got him a glass of water. She made him use it and she tucked him in bed and he slept off. She used the opportunity to take a walk around the hospital as per se she doesn't want t for disturb him. Diana closed the door gently behind her and went straight to the pharmacy side. It was then she saw him.

Fred.

She widened her eyes and frowned. She turned back immediately and began to walk away. She rolled her eyes and cursed. Like how does he even know she was in the Hospital? She wouldn't blame. She would blame the media instead. I mean some people even come to the hospital just to see their favorite model. Celebrities like Kara, Celine, and even Amanda. Williams wasn't left out. He brought flowers for her but Diana didn't hesitate to throw them in the trashcan. Fred ran after her and blocked her way. "What do you want, Fred?" She asked.

"I heard your boyfriend is admitted here."

"That was a month ago's news. What did you want exactly?" She asked again losing the little patience that remained in her. She folded her arms eyeing him.

"You." "What?"

"Do you want me to repeat myself? I said I want you. I want you to come back to me. I promise to give you whatever you want. Anything, Diana. I swear to you." Fred said coming closer to her but then she moved back immediately. "Stay where you are. Do not come close. I don't want your money. What part of my words don't you understand? Are they difficult to grab or understand? Do you need brain surgery?" Diana asked gritting her teeth together. "Just like the one the doctors almost make your beloved boyfriend go through?" Fred fired back.

Diana almost slapped him.

"Are you here to mock me? I am sorry to disappoint you, Fred. But you are mistaken. You do not affect me. Just leave and never come back. Go to hell!" She said and turned to leave but he grabbed her wrist.

"Where do you think you are going? I am not done talking to you yet." He said and tightened his hold on her wrist.

"Hey! Let go of me. You are hurting me." She told him and hijacked her hand away from him but he grabbed her waist.

"You pervert," Diana shouted and hit him with her elbow and hit his crotch with her knee. She walked away angrily.

"I will get you, Diana. You are mine whether you like it or not. Oh, fuck.... ought...." He groaned in pain.

He walked out feeling embarrassed.

Diana went back to the hospital.

*Two months later*

"You can go home now. Mr. Liamson is okay. He is free." Doctor Rosales said as he signed his discharge papers. He handed the papers to Diana and she signed too. Now, he was free.

Diana turned to Liam.

"Are you okay, my love?" Diana asked.

"Yes, my love. Thanks to you. I am good." Liam replied.
