Diana woke up pale white in the hospital with a drip attached on her left hand, her heart ached once she remembered suddenly how her family betrayed her and she sworn to get revenge. she turned her head towards the door which was suddenly wide open and a man and woman in their late 30's dressed in casual but expensive clothing walked in and a doctor followed behind.
"how are you dear?" The doctor asked placing the stetoscope to check her heartbeat.
"I'm fine, how did I get here?" Diana asked curiously looking at the three in front of her.
"you fainted in the middle of the road and also in front of our car." The man replied.
"when will I be discharged?" Diana asked.
"tommorow by God's grace." The doctor replied.
"we need to undergo a full body check-up and before tommorow the results should be out."
The doctor adjusted the drip and left leaving the couple and Diana alone in the room.
"so how are you feeling are you better now." The woman asked softly seating on the nearest chair to the bed.
"I'm alright and thanks so much for your help, I'll surely pay you back." Diana forced a smile and gently held the woman's hand.
"no need dear you're just like a daughter to me, you just need to get better soon, okay?" The woman smiled.
Diana saw the sincerity in her eyes and couldn't help but shed tears.
"my dear, what's wrong?" The woman asked worried.
"nothing, it's just I thought I was living a happy life with the ones who cared about me but all was just fantasy, they betrayed." Diana spoke in a shaky voice and the woman patted her back.
"don't worry you can always tell me about it, but if you don't want to it's fine just know I'll be here for you." The woman assured.
Diana couldn't put a finger on it but it felt that she knew this woman from somewhere, that she could trust her. That night, the rain poured heavily outside as Diana narrated the events which led her here.
"how can they be so cruel." The woman said patting Diana's back to comfort her.
"don't worry you can come live with l and husband." The woman smiled.
"I don't want to be a burden to you, you've been kind enough to save me I don't..."
The woman cut Diana of saying:
"don't worry dear and I insist you won't be a burden".
"if you insist I'll come stay with you." Diana replied and she and the woman chatted for ours before she finally left promising to come by tomorrow to pick her up. Diana slept peacefully that night while someone was busy looking for someone .
