Six days passed since I was admitted in the hospital and finally two days ago I was released from the unit of intensive care. They said that I was stabilized but still needed more specialized care, so they moved me to one of their private rooms. We could definitely afford it. And in this place I would not only have the calm and rest that I deserved but there was also more space for visits. There were always nurses or doctors nearby so in case of emergency they could work on it right away.
"Well, there are some after effects but it could have been more serious. I lost some memories from five to four years ago. And it's ... horrible to know that in the empty hollow of your memories there should be something, not just dark and depressing fog. But compared with losing the mobility of one or more of my limbs this really is nothing." - I thought while moving my hand unconsciously.
The police were still investigating the causes and the general thought was that this could have been an unexpected and unfortunate accident, but according to what they informed us two days ago, they still could not completely dismiss the theory that the accident was intentional. This was because the building from which the pot fell was a shopping center. There had been many people in the mall. Children, young people, university students and even whole families. After all, it had been a vacation day for almost everyone. And taking into account that we recently had a complete fall out with Marla and Charles, it was natural to investigate if they were in there. That's why this days, the police were watchings hours and hours of surveillance videos.
-Sarah? I interrupt something important? - Asked Marina, entering the VIP room where I was hosted in the hospital.
-No mom. I was only thinking about how great it is to lose some memories compared with the other possible after effects. Well, I also was thinking about what to do with my hair when I am discharged from the hospital. What do you think I should do? Rape it completely, do some extreme haircut or wear a wig?
-Wig, obviously. How can you ever think of raping it? - She asked puzzled at her daughter shocking thoughts.- We can buy a lot of wigs with differents styles and colors. In this way, you can enjoy wings with different hairstyles until your hair grows again. We can look right now for some. - She said taking out the phone from his big but stylish bag.
-Mom, that's a wonderful idea!
-What is a wonderful idea? - Luke asked opening the door.
He came in followed by my brother Aleksander. Both in their business outfit. The same style but in different color. "Surely they just came from the company"
-Buy various wigs so she can have any hairstyle she wants when she is finally discharged. - Responded Marina without looking up from the cell phone. She immediately called the family assistant. And when he answered my mom ordered him to look for the best site to buy the items.
-Well, that is certainly a very good idea, baby.
-It's not mine. It was mom. I was thinking of raping it completely or making an extreme haircut.- I explained while watching the surprised looks their were giving me. - Well, I also thought about buying a wig as a possibility, but mom proposed to buy many.
-Even if a bald head looks great on you baby, I prefer my darling suggestion. I am sure anything you wear will look great on you. - Said Luke boasting her daughter beauty.
-I'm more surprised by the fact that you considered going bald a good choice.
-Hehe ~♡. I live to surprise you or make you mad.
Having said that, they sat on the sofa in the room. Both of them unconsciously adopting the same sitting posture. Legs crossed and backs loosely supported on the backrest. "Like father, like son."
-You worried us.- Suddenly said Luke.
-I know daddy.
-Don't scare us like that again.
-Yes, daddy. - I expressed to my father while nodding my head too.
'Ring Ring ~ ♪'
-This is Luke… Yes… Yes… Investigate immediately who is moving their hands. I want a report as soon as possible on my table. Yes. I know. Dispatch who you think you will need. We will be there in a couple of minutes. - He hung up the call.
Luke kept silence for a few seconds. Finally he sighed and adjusted his glasses.
-Someone is making trouble for our company. We need to return. Sorry Sarah. We just arrived and we have to go now. Daddy needs help from mommy and Alek to manage this crisis. We will finish this promptly and join you soon. Wait for us. I will lend you one bodyguard to protect you.
-No problem dad. The company is important and now it has fallen on crisis. Go and be the people I'm proud of.
-Okay. I'm going to kick the butt of who has dared to bother us now when we are needed to be with our baby.
-I will help you father.
-Don't leave me alone. My heels can make them feel really sorry.
-Don't have mercy. - I joked with them.
-Your wish are our orders. - Joked Alek while making a bow like a seasoned professional butler.
I laughed loudly. My tummy hurt so bad. While laughing they looked at my smiling.
Then they left still smiling brightly.

30 minutes later.
Suddenly the door swung open letting a blonde girl with sunglasses enter to the room. Then she closed it firmly and sat in the armchair next to the bed. The one were mom was before.
-Your life is really big. Even with a flower pot crashing into you from a third floor you are fine. Did your family save the world in a previous life? - The girl sighed unsightly. - I lost a lot of money thanks to that luck you possess.
-Marla. - I said with a cold voice and showing disgust. - What are you doing here and what happened to our bodyguard?
-Nothing. I only threatened his family. I have his beautiful daughter and wife sitting on a warehouse with a lot of really bad guys. Eager to try the delights that I have presented to them. When I said that, he not only let me in, also left. We are alone Sarah.
-So? What are you planning? - I asked while I sat more comfy on the bed.
She took off her blonde wig and the sunglasses that hid her face and looking at me with fury, she said.
-Thanks to you, my ideal life is ruined! Why did you have to put a condition like that!! If not for that, they would had let me join their family as a daughter-in-law!!! I'm pregnant with their grandson!! I should be the legal wife, not a mistress!!! Did you know that they are looking for another rich and beautiful girl to marry Charles?! - Shouted Marla agitatedly.
"Now I think that the soundproofing of the room is not a good thing."
-Your IQ is faulty too?
-You!!
-Don't tell me that the trouble in my family company is what you did.
-Of course is what I did! - Said proudly arranging a lock of her hair behind her ear. - I needed a distraction for your family. If I didn't make trouble how could I have them let you all alone with me in the hospital?
-So you want to revenge.
-Yes.
Marla, looked at the windows that were near the sofa on which Alek and daddy had sat earlier. These were closed so she went ahead with his plan. Marla took from his jacket pocket a vial that contained a greenish liquid.
"This does not look good at all. I have a bad feeling. I better try to get out of here."
I tried to get up but a strong dizziness knocked me back to bed. Dizzy like I was, I had no other choice but to keep sitting as before. Marla, noticed my condition and smiled. Then she stirred the liquid looking at me with madness lurking in her eyes.
-You know that my family works in biochemistry, right? This little thing I have in my hands... -She stirred it again. - This is the new jewel in my family's crown. It is a chemical agent that, when it comes into contact with the air, infects people and kills them. My parents have been studying it in their personal laboratory to find a vaccine against its vicious effects. They have found it and my lab is the only one who works with this substance. But as you will understand, this is not the vaccine.
I trembled internally feeling a chill go through my body, but I didn't show it on my face.
