Chapter 6 - Bail

After a few days of continuous treatment, Mathew was recovered completely and discharged from the hospital. Meanwhile, the cops get the information about his recovery and come to the hospital to arrest him for the accident he did that night. Both Bruce and Sophia requested the cops not to arrest him as he was recovered just and now if you take him to custody as soon as he was recovered saying that his health was not good at all. The two requested him a lot, but the cops did their duty without listening to them by taking Mathew into their custody. Arrested him, took him over to their car, and let him sit inside. The cops too sat inside the car, the driver started it and left the place within a few minutes without any delay.

Sophia was very much disappointed after seeing the cops take Mathew into custody and going into somewhat depression.

"Sofia please don't worry, I'll do something to get him back soon to our house. I'll go to my attorney friend and get bail for him as soon as possible. In the meantime, you and James go home carefully and wait over there, I'll get him quickly" Bruce sends Sophia home with James and he rushes to the attorney without any delay after clearing all the hospital dues quickly.

Bruce goes to his friend in a hurry and explains everything that happened in the hospital very clearly.

"Please don't be afraid of anything, I'll come with you and take him out of the station as soon as possible" Attorney comforted him a while and started typing something very serious on his laptop, printing some papers from the printer and they grabbed the papers in a file and left for the police station immediately.

Mathew was locked up at the police station when they reached there and saw him. Seeing him in that position, Bruce was devastated. Unable to bear the suffering, he thought that if his mother came and saw him in this situation, then she would immediately lose consciousness. He thinks very seriously that she does not have the strength to see her son in these situations.

Meanwhile, the attorney presents the file which he carried on his hands filled with the printed papers from his laptop to the cops and takes him out of the station after the attorney had spoken to the cops seriously for a while.

"Don't feel happy just because of this, it was not done yet with this, there's still a long way to go on. He has to come to the station whenever we call for an inquiry. He should attend court. So be careful and do not go anywhere without telling us. It would be a great crime if he did so and also not to leave this town at all and at any moment" The cops gave him a warning and sent Mathew away from the police station with certain conditions...

When Mathew comes out, Bruce hugs him tight with joy as well as pain in his heart. He Can't see that his son is having so much trouble in his life.

"My son, how many of these hardships will you face in your life? we're getting older day by day, we're not going to be able to bear it all from now onwards. Be brave my child and go ahead in your life to achieve your hardships by yourself. Aren't you still a child so we can still stand behind you to solve everything?" Bruce says of his anguish as he suffers a lot in his heart.

Mathew has been silent for a while without being able to say anything and his heartbeat is rising a little after listening to his father's pain.

Yes, it's true that all the hardships are coming only for me. I suffered a lot when Clara left me alone and my parents also suffered a lot when they saw me in this position.

Why is all this happening? What did I do wrong? She left me alone not I left her and I was not cheated on her right? Does that mean my troubles would be gone if she were in my life again? But what should I do now? She is married and has a son too.

I need to know about her first, why is she dull and suffering for something in her heart? Does that still mean she did not forget me? Why is she with someone else at the party? Who are those two old people at all? What does she have to do with them? I do not understand anything and how to find her in this big, moderate city?...

Meanwhile, the three reached home and his mother was waiting outside the house itself for Mathew very eagerly. After seeing him getting out of the car, she started crying at once and bursting into tears and hugged him very tightly to relieve the pain in her heart. Mathew could not bear to see his mother crying and he started crying too. After looking at the two, Bruce and James also cried by falling tears from their eyes.

Because the Attorney is a friend of Bruce, he's too upset to see them.

"There will be no more problems for him from now on regarding this case, I will take care of it, I gathered the CCTV footage and I had a look at what happened that night. There is nothing wrong with Mathew. The car owner gave a reverse complaint on Mathew to escape his driver from the incident. I have all the proof with me and I am going to file a complaint against the car driver and the owner of the car. The case will be closed most probably at the next hearing, so no need to be afraid again in this matter. You can all be happy about this matter" Attorney said and drank the coffee given by Sofia and left their house leaving them in a happy mood.

But now the problem starts again for Mathew... How was he going to find Clara in this big city? How he was going to meet her by seeing the child in her arms?...
