Brian p.o.v
After I waved Sophia and she entered a taxi, I walked back to mom's room, I looked around the room when I realised yunus was nowhere to be seen.
I asked a nurse who was passing by and was in the room earlier checking on my mom's pressure.
"I think one of your friends took him out" she said pointing at the lobby.
I thanked her and went to look for them around and that's when my eyes caught a familiar face, it was samra and yunus sitting in a cafeteria eating together.
I felt relieved as they both were enjoying themselves and I walked back to mom's room. I sat on the chair and grabbed her hand and kissed it.
She hasn't even opened her eyes,its been hours and I hope nothing goes wrong with her.
As I looked at her, the doctor's words kept repeating itself and I didn't know how long I could be able to handle it.
As I looked at her I remembered the guy who was with us earlier, his figure and eyes they were like mine, he gave me a warm smile and walked towards me and mom was quick to push me away from him.
I slipped and my hand fell on a hot water and mom was about to attack him with a knife which he missed by an inch.
She accidentally slipped and fell unconscious which brought us here and now curiosity took over me as I want to know more about him.
My thoughts were interrupted by yunus as he came to me and I sat him on my lap he looked happy and told me he wanted to bring food for mom bu she was sleeping.
I didn't even realise that samra was still here and I quickly got up and laid yunus on the couch and offered samra to walk her out.
As we walked out her driver was already there so I I helped her get inside and waved at her as they drove away.
I went back to the room and yunus was already sleeping, I laid next to him as I turned to look at mom, I tried to sleep but I couldn't because the man's eyes kept appearing in front of me.
The next day, I felt someone shaking me, it was yunus he was whining and wanted to have something to eat.
I looked at my phone and I was surprised to see that it was almost noon. This day wasn't going to be lucky as my phone was low battery and I didn't bring my charger.
We both left the room as a nurse who was attending to mom came to see her and went to the cafeteria.
As we came back, I saw the nurse running towards a phone and dialled a number and called a doctor, he came running towards mom's room with the nurse and I couldn't help but to run after them.
Unfortunately one of the nurses forbade me from entering the room and closed the door, I walked to the window but I wasn't lucky either, the curtain was pulled down.
My heart raced a mile,I got anxious and worried at the same time, since I had no other relatives who lived nearby. I decided to call them.
Without looking at the number, I called and it was answered by Sophia, I didn't have much time so I told her to come as fast as she could.
I was still scared and worried about what was happening that I didn't know my eyes were tearing down, I called samra and she answered as well.
I started crying as I told her what was happening when my phone completely died. I didn't know how long it would take and there was no other way to call her again.
I kept walking around as I looked at the door hoping that someone would come out and say some good news but It was all in vain.
Yunus was looking at me as I kept wiping my tears,I didn't know how long it was until I saw both samra and Sophia walking towards me together with Martha.
As she approached me, I hugged her and let the tears come, I couldn't hold it anymore and I don't think I was ready to accept it.
"What happened to her, she was at least fine when we left yesterday?" Sophia asked as I was still hugging samra.
"There's something I haven't told you about since she got admitted here" I said as I let go of her.
I ended up telling them about mom's condition and the look of their faces showed how worried they were.
"We're sorry for what happened to her, is the doctor still in there and why isn't anyone telling us about it?" Samra asked as she looked at the door.
"They've been inside for almost an hour now and it feels like I might not be able to handle whatever the doctor will say thanks for being here" I said as I saw the doctor coming out of the room.
"What happened to her? Is she going to be alright?" I asked anxiously as I was scared to the core.
"It seems like she was drugged by unknown drug which we successfully managed to get it out before it spread to her heart" he said as I saw a nurse holding a bowl of blood.
"What? How's that even possible, no one came to see us and I don't think mo m could have an enemy, could she?" I asked as I wondered who could be after her.
Both samra and Sophia looked at me wondering what I was thinking about. I then walked into the room, mom was still sleeping. I turned around to see three of them looking at me confused.
"Look Brian, I know you're devastated after finding out about her condition and now you're roaming around as if you're looking for something, what is it?" Samra asked as she broke the awkward silence.
"Am sorry but there's something else too after I left your place, yunus informed me that a guy was talking to mom and I managed to get home quickly but then..." I couldn't tell what happened so I kept quiet.
"What happened Brian, you can tell us, does it have something to do with your hand?" Sophia asked as she pointed on my hand.
"Its just that I would like if one of you could stay here while I go home and figure out something and besides I haven't even changed my clothes too" I said as an excuse to go home and find some information about the mystery man.
"No worries I was about to tell you that but then this happened and I think it's best to inform the police who knows something or someone would come back again" Samra suggested.
I wanted to refuse but it was for mom's safety so I agreed. Before we could leave the doctor came back with some police officers.
"I actually informed them and I think its best if you give your statement" doctor Ashton said as the officers came from behind.
They introduced themselves and I shook their hands, samra and the rest stayed together as I walked away with the police.
Three of us sat in an empty room and they asked me questions, they showed me some criminal records and pictures of people who were released.
As I looked at them, I recognize one picture it was the same guy who came to our house that day and I pointed at him as the person who I suspected.
Even though I wasn't sure it was him, I wanted to know about him. They gave me their card and told me to call them if I see the guy again.
Before they left I asked if they could offer a security for my mom while they investigated the case. They nodded and I felt relieved even though my mind was too curious to know about the mystery man.
After that they left and I went back to the room where samra and the rest including yunus who was playing with Martha were there.
"How did it go?" Samra asked as she walked to me.
"It's the start and thanks for offering to help now I'll have a security guarding the door " I said as I hugged her.
"You're welcome, am glad to help you and let's hope the person gets caught as soon as possible" she said looking at mom.
I then left the hospital in a hurry as I wanted to be back before night. I took a cab and went home, after paying.
I went in and climbed upstairs to mom's room, I searched for clues anything that could help but nothing.
I was about to give up when my eyes saw a big box made of metal was laying under her bed. It was locked and i looked for the key and finally found it.
I put the box on the bed and opened the lock, as i opened the door. I saw papers and pictures of mom as she was young all the way to her graduation.
One thing caught my eye, there was a guy with her and some students standing together. The man looked familiar it was the same guy who came to our house.
"Who is this mysterious man and how does he know my mom?" I asked myself as I looked at the other pictures.
In another picture it was him again and this time it looked like an engagement photo where they were both standing together as he was smiling at her while holding hands.
"I was wondering when I'll be able to see you again" I heard a man saying as he stood by the door.
My heart skipped as I recognized the voice it was him, he came back now what's going to happen to me?.....
