When I got up again I opened my eyes slowly and I saw Sofia talking to Simon and Rose was on his lap playing with her doll. Sofia saw her and she walked towards her. She asked " How are you feeling now dear?" I tried to reply, my mouth hurts but still, I replied ' I'm fine now ' Simon was also standing beside Sofia carrying Rose. "What's the time? " I asked. Sofia replied " it's noon" . I tried to get up and Sofia helped me to sit. Simon was still watching me. Rose got down and came running to me and said "Momma Sofi aunty said you fell and got hurt ". She touched one of her scratches softly & asked ' Does it hurt now ' I took her in my arms hugged her and replied ' No I am fine now ' I looked at Sofia " Oh I didn't inform Mr Richard about today's leave " Sofia "Don't worry Simon already took care of that " . I looked at Simon he still didn't say a word. I thanked him, "Thanks for all you have done ". Then Sofia said " I will bring you a cup of coffee and something to eat you were sleeping like a log for one and a half day & we didn't want to wake you, you looked very tired " I replied "Oh let me fresh n up ". Now Simon came forward helped me get up from bed and took me to the washroom stood outside and first time spoke " Don't close the door from inside if you need help just call me I am standing outside". I nodded and went inside. When I came out he was still standing there again he helped me to bed. Sofia and Rose we're not in the room. Simon sat beside me took my hand into his " I was frightened to death if something would have happened to you what would I do, Oh! I can't even think ".
I was shocked by the statement he made now he only met me for the past two to three days but he was talking as if he cared. Simon looked at me and was about to say something but Sofia entered with a tray and Rose behind her. Simon got up and Sofia put the tray on the side table she helped me to sit and served me. Sofia looked at Simon and said " You can now go home, take some rest you were awake the whole night, I'm here so don't worry about her" He nodded looked at me "You take rest, I will return soon " I nodded and he left the room after hugging Rose and murmured something in her ear. Rose smiled. And he left.
Sofia looked at me and said " If Simon would not have returned here Ryan would have hurt you more, he was awake the entire night. I think he has a soft corner for you ". I didn't reply then she continued " Simon even called police. They were here but you were sleeping and the doctor has given sedation so they said they will be here later". I was shocked I didn't remember about any doctor visiting me. Sofia and Rose were busy in the kitchen when I heard the doorbell. I heard a voice and I heard a knock on my door and I saw Simon. He smiled and asked " How are you feeling now". I replied ' I am fine '. He looked tired. He came and sat next to my bed and said " The police called they will here anytime, don't worry tell them whatever happened". I nodded. Then we heard someone knocked on the door and two policemen entered my room. One of them asked me " Mrs Jones how are feeling now". I replied "I feel better now". Simon got up and the policeman sat beside me I tried getting up Simon came rushing and helped me to sit. The policeman asked some questions tears filled my eyes, they left after noting down all the information.
The phone was ringing Simon picked up the phone. He spoke " Hello, Simon here, Ya, please hold on I will give it to her". He said " It's your mum" . I took the phone . I spoke "Hello " and heard my mum's voice " Hello darling, you didn't call for the past two days and we were worried, Is everything ok ". I replied " Mumma don't worry I am alright, I was a little busy that's why I wasn't able to call you". Mum asked " How are Rose and Ryan" . I replied "Rose is playing with Sofia mum " And I ignored her question about Ryan, I didn't want her to worry about me. I again spoke " How is dad ". I heard my mum " He is reading a newspaper and he wants to speak to you too we miss you and Rose" . I replied " I miss you all mum ". I heard dad ' Hello puppet, you forgot us no calls for the past two days" I replied " Sorry dad, I was a little busy " My dad asked " Are you ok , you sound very low' Tears filled my eyes but I controlled myself as I didn't want them to know I replied " Oh dad don't worry about me I am fine " My dad was not satisfied by my answer I knew, then I changed the subject I asked about my brothers and sisters. After keeping the phone I realised that Simon was still there. sitting beside me.
He looked at me and said "It was a good decision not to tell them about Ryan but they should know about it later on". I replied " Oh no, they will worry too much, I will tell them but slowly, they're far away I don't want them to worry at this age ". Simon replied " As you wish, do you know Ms Ria that you are the most amazing person I have ever met in my entire life ". I didn't reply. He continued " I have met lots of women in Germany and here but I never felt as human as I am now with you ". I didn't look at him. He continued " You are a pure soul and very beautiful too". I remembered Ryan shouting to me that I was ugly and old and no one will even put one glance on me. I closed my eyes.
I heard Sofia and Rose entering. Sofia touched my hand and asked " How are you feeling now? '". I replied " I am fine now '. I tried smiling. Sofia continued looking at Simon "You can have lunch with us, I am not a good cook like Ria. She is the best, I have never eaten so tasty food in my life ". I smiled and thanked her " I am not a very good cook, you are exaggerating " Sofia said " Oh no, I am not exaggerating your food is as good as any chef in a 5 * hotel". I smiled and thanked her. Simon looked at Sofia and said " I will surely have lunch with you all but before that, I have some calls to make. My Secretary has been calling me since morning, I will take care of the matter and then I will join you". He looked at me and said " I will be in two minutes". I nodded and he left the room.
Later after dinner, Simon left home. I went to sleep, the night was too disturbing, got up after dreaming Ryan was trying to kill me.
