Parents worry

When Jacob opened his eyes he saw that besides doctor who was checking on him every other person he deemed important and who deemed him important in his life was there except some who were out of station and he also knew that if they were not out of situation then they would also come the room will feel a little suffocating but still there were nearly 20-25 people were standing in or out of his room to meet him and they all knew about the reason he took this step.

People who knew about the reason included his friends and siblings and he asked them to promise him that they will never tell about this to their parents. But some promises are good to be broken and as good friend and siblings they were didn't told his parents about the reason till this incident because the thought he was responsible enough to not do such things.

But now that thing came to this extent they mutually decided to tell his parents about the reason and asked for their forgiveness.

His parents even though bit angry still forgave them because they also didn't ever in their dreams thought that Jacob will do this.

They forced him for his own good but still felt that they were also responsible for this. And they also told the cops about the reason so cops didn't interfere much after knowing this but they sent a written notice to Jacob through his parents to not take such steps in future.

Now let's come to the story

When Jacob saw his parents sorrowful expression he felt sad and he was angry upon himself that why he thought so selfishly about himself. But was surprised that their parents still didn't asked him about anything related to incident for so long naturally they will scold him for any small mistake or delay in work but now they were standing there quietly.

Five minutes later the doctor who was checking on him left the room and allowed the people who were outside the room to enter but only in group of 5 people per entry except his parents and siblings for 10 minutes per group.

When the doc left his siblings and his parents started to asking about how he was feeling and if he need anything or comfortable in his current position right now. He answered every question calmly

"Mummy papa , don't worry I am fine now and I don't think I need anything right now and I am comfortable doesn't need to change my sitting position"

Even though he said he don't need anything his mother Anju clark started peeling apples and cutting them for him like any other mother do if she were in his mother's shoes and didn't reject the apples and started eating them but he was still wondering why they didn't asked anything.

For more than 5 minutes no one was speaking in room and were watching the mother and son duo doing their things.

But Jacob's can't hold his curiosity much longer and asked his mother- " mummy papa why aren't you asking me any question regarding the incident."

When her mother heard this question her eyes filled with tears and started sobbing and sniffing while hiding her face

Sob...sniffff..sniff

Jacob felt guilty again for mindlessness and came to understand that she is not asking because she didn't wanted to cry in front of her son

But his father answered his question that they already knew the reason why he did this and asked him to forgive him and his mother to forcing him into doing things hi didn't wanted to do.

Jacob was both speechless and surprised.

Speechless because he always saw his father as a caring person he took care of all his needs and his mother was also equally supporting and caring and surprised because how they knew the reason and suddenly like a light bulb turned on in his mind he looked at his friends and siblings with questioning eyes and they all nodded simultaneously though not daring making eye contact.

He also understood the reason of their that why the did this and he felt like he really made some great friends in his life because he knew that if he told the reason from his own mouth this will hurt their parents more so he was quiet relived and said to his father- "papa mummy you guys don't need to ask me for forgiveness I'm your son and I know what you did was all for my good and you are not responsible for my current situation only I am responsible for it and I promise I will not do anything like this in future."

Hearing what their son said now bot Ethan and Anju were surprised because this was the first time their son accepted his own fault and that also so openly in front of all of them and they also felt relieved that their son was not depressed like they thought he would be.

Due to system screen in his mind space he knew that his mother and father was in the hospital all this time and didn't had dinner he asked his uncle and aunty to take them home and have dinner he told the not to worry about him because he have his friends and siblings here to take care of him so they complied and went home.

He asked his all present friends to come inside the room and they came.

He expressed his gratitude towards them that they care about him and his parents and promised to return the favour hundredfold.

They took his words as mere thanks and told him not to worry that they are friends and they will come to help whenever he needs them and then they also left.

Now only he was in the room and said smilingly in his mind to his system let the self introduction begin.....
