Sky and Arlo went to another large room where two of Jai"s teammates were present. Both were awake and a nurse was helping them. They knew Sky and thanked her. "Thank you so much, Sky. We thought we were going to die in the forest. You saved us at the right time."Sky gave a faint smile and saw another one who she hadn"t really noticed in the helicopter. The first one saw her line of sight and asked, "Do you remember his any details?"
Sky nodded and said with a straight face, "When I wanted to hold down that woman, he slapped her which made her spin twice before falling on the ground." She continued before they could ask, "His knuckles crinkles are very dense."
They were impressed by her a.n.a.lysis and nodded in appreciation. Sky spoke her aim to meet them, "Doctors said that you need to rest for some more days in the hospital. You don"t have to worry about your ident.i.ties. We didn"t investigate and there would be no record about it in the hospital either."
They nodded. They knew it was the best way to get treatment as they couldn"t visit any hospital with their heavy wounds. "Thank you, Sky. Thank you, President Smith."
Sky nodded. Arlo didn"t care. He was actually standing next to her for her. The second man asked about Jai, "What about Jai? How is he?"
Sky clenched her fist hard. She couldn"t help it but a sarcastic tone escaped from her mouth.
She looked at one, "You are safe because of Brother Jai. He diverted the attention of arsonists." She turned to another man, "You are safe because Brother Jai sent you first and revealed his path to the Arsonist to save you. So what to do you guys think about his state?"
By her expression and tone, they understood Jai"s condition wasn"t good. They knew well how much Jai loved his brother and sister. And how much Sky loves her brothers. She sighed when Arlo held her shoulder and patted, "I didn"t mean to blame you. I"m sorry..."
"We know." Both said in unison. Sky nodded, "Brother Jai is in a coma." As soon as she finished, she turned around and left. Those two men looked at each other and sighed.
Arlo followed her to ICU. Sky saw Jai laying on a white bed. His pale skin was getting a life. The wires connect him made her heart tug uncontrollably. She felt hard to breathe looking at him.
Arlo led her ahead and made her sit on the stool next to the bed. A group of doctors blabbered them for sometime before Arlo signaling them to leave.
They were telling everything about Jai which both knew. Jai"s all vitals were back to normal but he was unconscious and weren"t sure when he would wake up.
Arlo who was standing behind her heard her say, "Brother Jai! Your palm is colder than mine. How are you going to warm my palms if you keep sleeping on the bed? Weren"t you the one who always took care of me? Do you want me to pamper you so much that you chose this way? Okay, I will spoil you as much as you want, wake up for it. What can you do laying on the bed? Brother Jai! You can"t even read a book like this. You also can"t feed me whatever I want to eat. Brother Jai! Who is going to bully Loran with me? Brother Jai! If you don"t wake up, I will eat only junk food. I will eat at night too even if it"s bad for the stomach. Brother Jai! If you continue sleeping, you can"t even scold me if I stop my daily work out. How are you going to stop me from eating desserts and ice creams? Brother Jai! You can"t even tease..."
Sky continued as she held Jai"s palms between her palms.
Arlo couldn"t stand anymore and exited the ICU. He wished he could wake up Jai easily. He saw from peek-through-gla.s.s that Sky talking on and on.
Sky didn"t stop even after half an hour. Arlo entered inside and brought her out. Sky didn"t complain to him and came out silently.
Sky had yet to have breakfast hence he tried to feed her but she took and had her stomach fill silently.
Arlo wanted to say, "Don"t push yourself too much." But he couldn"t bring himself to say it.
Sky was going through her files in a laptop sitting next to Loran who was asleep. Arlo sat on the couch in the same room.
Sky had arranged for Alex to return to Town A and informed him not to tell anything about it to anybody.
When Loran woke up, Sky spoke with Loran as she continued to work. Peter knocked on the door and entered the room. Sky pouted and ignored him.
--
When Peter alighted from the helicopter and returned to Sigma gynecology department where Elina was present. He had cursed Sky a lot on the way and even complained to Elina sitting next to her for the whole time as he served her attentively.
When Elina took Sky"s side, he even behaved like a child and scolded her.
The same day evening, Elina"s water broke and was s.h.i.+fted to the Labour ward. Peter was allowed inside the ward and stayed with Elina who went through natural birth.
After holding the baby for the first time, he had thanked Sky mentally uncountable of times. If he had gone with Sky, he couldn"t be able to accompany his wife and would have missed everything...
In the morning, he got to know about both Loran and Jai by Jimmy who had briefed him every detail but he had no guts to meet Sky.
After getting coaxed and chided by Elina, he went to meet her. Seeing Sky ignoring him, he wasn"t sure what to do.
Sky noticed him stand quietly for a long time. Loran sensed it and raised his brows at Peter. The latter was embarra.s.sed and told everything to Loran after going next to him.
Loran whispered to him, "Mr.Jones, You are the best example for digging their own grave beautifully. You should have understood the importance when Sister Sky was concerned about your wife even when she was worried to death about Brother Jai. Tsk Tsk."
Peter thought Loran would help, seeing him laugh at his state he understood Loran was ready to enjoy the show.
