7,SHE BLAMED HERSELF

two hours passed since the doctor gave Maria some sleeping drug and now she was awake and more energetic and free than the last time she woke up, she turned her head to see aunt Emma sleeping beside her in the bed while sitting.

feeling movement in the bed aunt Emma cleared her eyes and stood straight.

"Maria are you feeling better now dear"

"am ok aunt, aunt please tell me what happened how did I get here and where is Andrew" Maria asked while holding her Aunt hands.

Aunt Emma hesitated to speak but thought that maria will found out sooner or later" well maria while your father was looking everywhere in k city for you and Andrew we surdenly got a call from an unknown number who said she just saw you at the train station laying there unconscious, and as for Andrew...w-well dear I'm sure your father and mister Stewart will do all they can to fined him ok"

hearing this tears rolled down maria eyes, she blamed herself for Andrew predicament, if he did not use himself as bait she would have not been here right now, she then remembered what he said in the warehouse "I can sacrifice myself for you", this made her heart sink more and more.

seeing this all Emma could do was tell her all was going to be alright but they were disturbed when the door was pushed open, it was frenk he stared at Maria, seeing that she did not even want to look at him he then glanced at Emma who responded with a refusing reaction, all he could do was sigh and exit the room for the two women.

Although she felt sad now, she is yet to know what future awaits her.
