After finishing his coffee, Samuel stood up.
" I am going to meet Sia and Mom. You should go back and check the progress of the house. "
Jake nodded and took a sip of his coffee.
Samuel went out of the cafe and sat in his car. He took a deep breath and started the car.
He was about to drive when a notification on his phone stopped him.
He opened the phone and found a message from his adoptive father.
-I am back in the country. I want to meet you soon.- Father.
Samuel smiled seeing this. After everything happened to his family, this man was his saviour.
He drove the car towards the hospital.
A series of memories played in his mind.
How he came to this place with his original family.
How happy they were.
And a scene of his Dad lying in a pool of blood right in the middle of Parker Mansion.
Remembering it caused tears to form in his eyes.
The sight of hospital made him come back to reality. After drying his tears, he got out of the car and walked to the entrance.
But he saw someone and quickly hid behind the nearest car.
Mark and his wife, Crystal were coming out of there. Samuel got worried seeing them.
As soon as they left, he quickly walked inside and went towards his sister's room.
The nurse had just gotten out of the room. He approached her and asked, " Miss, did a man come here before me? "
" No. " The nurse replied.
" Thank God. " He let out a huge sigh.
" No matter what happens you will not let anybody near her without my permission except Mr.Jake, alright. "
The nurse nodded and went away. Samuel calmed himself before entering inside.
Sia was sitting on the bed and trying to read a book by the feeling of her fingers. Hearing his footsteps, she looked at his direction.
" Is that you? Sammy. " Sia asked.
" Its me. " Samuel smiled.
A beautiful smile graced her features before she extended her hands for Samuel to hold.
Samuel grabbed them and sat beside her.
" Are you alright? " He asked worried.
" Yes. I am fine. They are taking good care of me. " Sia smiled in his direction hoping she was looking in the right direction.
" I am here to give you good news. " Samuel smiled.
" What is it? " Sia asked.
" I have found a donor for you. " Samuel said.
Sia couldn't believe her ears. After being blind for seventeen years, she had lost all hope.
" Really. " Her voice quivered.
" Yes. " There were tears in Samuel's eyes too.
" I can't believe it. I am happy. I- " Sia couldn't control her emotions.
" You will have an operation next month. Then they will keep checking your condition for a month. And then you will be able to live like a normal person again. " Samuel kissed her hands.
Sia put her hand on his cheek giving it a slight rub. She felt it moist.
" I am going to meet Mom. I will visit you again. " Samuel said and pecked her forehead.
--------------------
He stood infront of the door with the name plate of Jenny Kim.
He looked inside the room. His Mom looking out the window, smiling at the people walking around.
This was the most difficult part.
He entered the room and his Mom turned around.
" You are here, my dear. " His Mom said and hugged him.
Samuel smiled and hugged her back.
" Jace. Why do you take so much time in visiting me? " She smiled.
Samuel felt his eyes burning with tears.
" I am sorry. I will try to visit you sooner. " He gulped the lump in his throat.
" You didn't bring Samuel and Sia. Don't they miss me. "
" They do. I will bring them next time. " Samuel tried to control himself from breaking down.
His Mom's condition was getting worse. She was still living eighteen years in the past mentally. She thought of him as his father.
Samuel brought her to her bed and laid her down.
" You should rest. I will visit you again. " He pecked her forehead and put the blanket over her.
Getting out of the room, he sat at one of the benches and finally let his tears out.
He remembered when he came back from school and his mom would hug him.
The laughter that filled the Parker Mansion where he once lived.
He wanted those days back.
His phone rang and he quickly wiped his tears and looked at the caller id. A disgusted expression came on his face when he saw Jay calling.
He couldn't turn back time but he could take back what was supposed to be his.
