Treachery Affair

Three months later at St. Charles’ hospital…

Jayden is lying on the bed with an oxygen tank fixed over his face, several infusions are in his body. His body looks pale and his eyes are closed. Harley is sitting on the chair beside the bed, staring at his face as several droplets of tears drops from her eyes. It has been three months already and he is still yet to open his eyes. This is how she stays by his side every day and waiting for the day he will finally open his eyes and speak to her, but it seems like that day won’t come any time soon. It hurts her heart deeply to see him in such state of health, but she can’t help him in this situation.

She have been living in regret since she found out the truth. He never deserved everything that she did to him, she never deserved to be treated that way by her, he didn’t deserve to go through the pain she had caused her. Thinking of it makes her feel guilty. If only she can turn back the hands of time, she would never have let this happen, she wouldn’t have treated him so badly.

When will he wake up? How will she face him when he wakes up finally? Those are the questions that have been running through her mind for the past months, but she still hasn’t gotten answers to them.

After the incident months ago, Alex have been under life support also. Although he may still be alive, but there’s no high chance of him surviving. The doctors are still trying their best to make sure that he survives it. Samir was killed on the spot and all of his accomplices were also sentenced to death. All their problems are gone, just for Alex and Jayden to wake up and everything will be fine.

If it weren’t for Richmond that called the cops that day after he found out what Samir was up to, they would’ve been dead by now. After Harley found out the truth, she maanged to meet Richmond and told him everything. When Samir found out that she went out of the house, he thought that she had gone to see Jayden, and so restricted her from going out of the house again. She had tried taking his life a couple of times, but it never worked out, so she gave up and started looking for a way to get to Jayden.

She sighs softly, taking his hand. She squeezes it lightly, having a faint and empty smile on her face.

“I know you can’t hear me… I’m missing you here, and I can’t wait for you to pull through this and come out strong. I miss your smile, I miss your kiss, your touch, in short, I miss everything about you. Williams is missing you too, he can’t wait to be in his father’s arms and play with him. I hope you’re preparing to have a mind blowing time with us when you finally wake up, huh?… We’re waiting for you here, darling…” Tears trickles down her cheeks as she kisses his hand and takes a deep breath.

The sound of her ringing phone pulls her attention, and she wipes her tears. She bring out her phone from her pocket, and a smile laces up her lips upon seeing the caller.

“Hey mommy…” Nelson’s voice sounds through the phone as soon as she picks up the call.

“Hey, baby Nelson. How’re you doing today?” She smiles naturally. Nelson have been a good boy. He and Williams have developed a strong bond, although Williams is still a little child.

“I’m fine, mommy. Daddy is going to stay with grandma at the hospital for some time, so he dropped me by at your house. When are you coming back home? Nanny Cleo said that you went to the hospital to see uncle Jay…” His little voice sounds through the phone.

“I’ll be back soon before you know it. I’m heading to the mall to get some things after I leave here, and I’ll come home after then. If you feel hungry, tell Cleo to get you something to eat, OK?” She says.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“Alright, mommy. I’ll be waiting for you,” the call ends immediately after his last word. Cleopatra is the nanny that Harley hired to be taking care of her son, since she’s always busy if not taking care of Jayden’s company, but at the hospital with him.

She spends a few more minutes at the hospital before she finally leaves. She ambles down the lobby and finally exit the hospital. She saunters to the parking lot and hops in her black sport car, driving out of the hospital afterwards.

It’s so hot in the afternoon, and the killing traffic jam adds to the boring day. For ten minutes, she’s stuck in the traffic jam under the scorching sun, and she can only pray that this shit finally be over so she can get the hell out of this damn place. After what seem like forever, the cars suddenly starts moving and soon the road is cleared. She huffs angrily when she finds out that there’s no reason why there was a traffic just now. Can her day get any better?

After shopping at the mall, she finally head straight to the house.

“Mommy is back…” Nelson, who had rush out upon hearing the sound of her car, rushes to her and jump on her body excitedly. He feels so excited to see her after a while.

“Hey, baby…” She hugs her warmly.

“I’ve missed you so much,” he whines, and she chuckles.

“I’ve missed you more, my darling. Come on, let’s go inside…” She stands up and picks the shopping bags which she had dropped when she was hugging her. They both heads inside.

Stepping into the house, she crashes tiredly on the couch and breaths out heavily. She had a long day, and all she needs now is a good rest.

“Welcome, ma’am…” Cleo, a lady of about twenty nine years old dashes into the living room, while having a smile on her face.

“Thank you. Where’s Williams?” She asks.

“Oh, I just put him to bed. He has been playing with Nelson, and just fell asleep a few minutes ago,” she replies her.

“Have you feed him yet?” She questions her again.

“Yes, ma’am. I did feed him,” Cleo replies to her.

“How about Nelson? Has he eaten yet?”

“I told her that I will wait for you, mommy,” he chips in, and she smile at him warmly.

“Alright. Please help me take this into the kitchen and arrange them in their places. Please, could you fix me something to eat? I’m famished and so tired,” she says to Cleo politely.

She nods and picks the bags, heading back into the kitchen.

“Do you want me to give you a massage?” Nelson asks Harley, jumping on her.

“No, Nelson. I just need to have my bath and get some sleep. I’m so tired… ah!” She groans tiredly, running her fingers through her hair.

“How’s uncle Jay and Alex? Have they woken up yet?” He asks eagerly, and her face drops sadly…
