Panda sat beside Lily held her hand wanting to know " weren't you scared, being a seven year old kid and have to face an adult like that". Meadow chuckled " what else I could do my legs were shaking, I had tremors in my hands I was nauseous but for Ella and Mia's efforts how could I not do that. They were my pillars of strength".
Taking a deep breath she continued " I went for the procedure, I was unconscious for 12 hours and finally when I woke up Ella was at my bedside holding my hands caressing it but she was crying " In a hoarse voice I asked " i did it Ella, I did what you and Mia asked for me to do but why are you crying". She smiled with a teary gaze and replied " I am proud of you sweety and Mia would have been proud of you too along with your mom".
I was confused " why are you saying like that where is Mia". She sniffled and looked in my eyes " Meadow in reality you are our master and it's our duty to protect you at all cost and Mia just did that ". I sat up on the bed " what do you mean". Ella continued " we knew Mr Mathew would have not let you go like that. So, we prepared a backup plan. Mia secretly handed the signed documents to her friend who was hiding on the corridor of the hospital and she took a decoy with her to get it authorized and what we expected worst happened. She met with an accident on the way and now we lost her".
I was not prepared for that I was dizzy and weak but I was so angry that I wanted to confront them I was shaking with rage it was so painful it was burning my veins . I planned to fight for Mia. But Ella held me and continuously cried holding me she said " you can't go and confront them or what Mia has done will all be lost, for her we have to keep quiet and plan our survival in Hawthorne family from now on. You deserve best Meadow and I am there for you. I will make sure you will succeed"
By now Meadow was crying looking at Panda who was also crying she said in a hoarse voice" but I lost so badly I never knew that. They destroyed me completely and now not even my ashes survived".
