Cruel World

Chapter 26: chap25

Sarah

'Look at you big girl .. I can't believe you are six months old' Sarah play with her daughter when she was changing her clothes.

Indeed Ava was growing daily as her all old clothes were too small to fit. Sarah decided to buy some clothes but was unsure how to say that to Theo...She do not want to give him the expression that she likes shopping and want to stay outside like rich people.

Sarah still doesn't know what her place in Theo life..Although Theo has been distant but civil to her still she can't predict Theo mood swing. That's why she uses some of the money she had that Mr grey has given her before Ava birth to buy clothes...she sends Mrs. Brickson who was going to Doctor for her check up...Mrs. Brickson assures her that it's not a problem for her...so here she is dressing her daughter who looked so beautiful..her red hair is also getting little long that made her daughter prettier.

She gets out of her wing and took Ava in the garden where both daughter and mother spend time...when they both settle down Sarah is amazed how her daughter points out at everything she sees in the sky but then she heard 'Having a fun time with your daughter' Roma said sarcastically

Sarah become tense and saw it was Roma.Roma look down on them and sit 'She looks fine now..the mark is already gone from her head 'Roma said while looking at Ava in a bored expression.

Sarah move a distance from Roma.....after Ava incident Sarah always felt uncomfortable to leave Ava with Roma even someone also is present...call it her maternal instinct or something she has a feeling Roma was behind Ava accident

Roma evil smiled and said sarcastically 'You think girl you have made a place in my son's heart...tsk tsk such a dumb-headed girl you are like Theo used to say to you..if you think he will ever accept you this

daughter of yours then you are so wrong..he told me how much he hates you and this daughter of yours ..' Sarah felt water in her eyes but she controls it...

Roma then said 'If you think that now you are mother of theo child and he will protect you and Ava then sweetheart you are stupid...because he can't save her when I kicked her on the chair that let your child bleed...but you know that when he comes to me he told me he believes I didn't do it...and he trust me' Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Sarah was stun what she is hearing 'How dare you...to even touch my daughter' Sarah was bloody furious...she wants to kill Roma..she want to hurt her likes she hurt her child

Roma narrow her eyes 'Now you speak too. That amazes me but also makes me angry too. But listen very carefully if I ever got a chance to hurt your child I will do it in a second so protect her from this cruel world sweetheart you never know who attack her and when' Roma sarcastically smiled at her

Sarah tightens her hold on Ava...oh my god...Roma is a psycho woman...how she can do this with her child...she hugged her and made up her mind she will never let that women shadow Ava.

In the night ...Sarah was done with the dinner and other stuff and was waiting for Theo.He has gone somewhere.

She saw her father in law waiting for her in the wing. Mr grey had come last week, he has kind smile on his face and beamed with happiness when he saw Sarah, he was holding Ava with whom Mr grey spend her time daily.

Mr grey adore Ava and it was clear whenever he saw her..he said 'I brought my favorite girl in the world who was getting little cranky so I brought it here for you.. I thought it will be rude for me to call my beautiful daughter in my wing... I hope it's not your sleeping time.

Sarah smiled and shake her head and become emotional when Mr grey said her his daughter...for a moment she remembers her father.

Mr. Blake might not be over affectionate but he loved Sarah and has a softer side for her as compared to his other kids but where did that all gone why his father never bothers to check on her if she is alive or not...Mr grey becomes worried when he saw tears in Sarah's eyes and said 'Hi, whats wrong my beautiful daughter...did I say something wrong '

Sarah wiped her tears and said 'It's nothing Mr grey. I just get emotional. When you called me your daughter ..it makes me happy and I miss my father that's it'

Mr. Grey let excited Ava to play with his tie who was putting it in her mouth...Mr grey make Sarah sit in the main sitting area and get emotional seeing Sarah like that 'Well honestly speaking it makes me happy too when I called you my daughter, you remind me of my daughter..( he smiled at her) and I will be happier if you called my dad, if you want to... no pressure'

Sarah lost it and tears make her face drenched and hug Mr Grey 'I will very happy to call you dad' Sarah gives the pacifier to Ava who has drenched Mr grey tie completely

Mr grey looks at Ava and laughs 'Look what you did young lady' Ava giggle

Mr grey was overwhelmed and said' why don't you meet your father Sarah or why he doesn't come here not even Ava was born ' Mr grey kissed Ava head protectively that made her more emotional

Sarah doesn't know what to say but she knew she should say something appropriate otherwise Theo will angry and last time he put her in the basement room for days and he also get angry when he thought she told something to Mark, this time she has no idea what he will do although something significant has changed between them and she doesn't want to change that...in reality she was liking it... she calmly said 'he used to but he is very busy with his business and now my youngest brother Mark also joins him soon so they are busy on that'

Mr. Grey do not look convincing but he does not push her more 'That's sad but there was a time I was busier than now. Tina used to complain how I spend more time in different countries than here. But I was bound with work, you know we were not all rich and mighty ..but as soon as my business start spreading our family time cut short. Which I regret that I can't spend time with my daughter more. Even I know Theo was there to look after his family and especially Tina (he smiled and was lost in thoughts) Theo literally took care of Tina like a father did..he loved her too much ..maybe she was the baby of the house , she was loved by everyone but I think Theo loved her the most even more than us..he can't even bear her small cuts and wounds she almost get in playing...But when we lost her .. I think everyone lost them self and Theo was the one who was most effective by this'

Sarah was stun and also feeling bad for that Theo, now it makes sense why he is like that.

Because he lost Tina forever and he is punishing her for this. Both of them so lost in their thought that they flinched when they heard tom and Roma yelling and they were running towards Mr. Grey.

Roma was crying and said 'Theodore..oh my god'

My Grey was taken aback by this and said 'Roma what's wrong for god sake say something, Tom, you tell me what's happening'

Tom was also very disturbed and emotional.

Sarah knew something very bad happen 'Dad.Theo..I just got a call from the hospital theo had an accident ..he is the hospital'

Sarah felt someone stop her breathing supply what's happening to her. She can't feel like this..she should be happy this may be the end for her misery but she felt nothing but intense pain.

She don't want to lose him...oh god what's wrong with her but if something happen to him.

No nothing will happen to him but what's wrong with her ...what she is even thinking,...she felt like blackout n she heard voice 'Sarah calm down ..Someone bring water for her..Come on Sarah sit down..' Mr Grey said to her

Roma yelled at Sarah which makes her condition more worse...'She is the bad omen in her family..she is responsible for this..how much you will take from me..you bitch..if something happens to my son .. I will kill you'

Tom comes between Sarah and his mother 'Mom plz calm down... come mom lets go to the hospital.. let's go'

Mr. Grey was stun what he saw and how his wife attack Sarah ...Mrs. Brickson come weakly to see what's happening but was shocked by what she had heard...she took Ava from Mr grey hold ..Who looked to shaken by the news

Tom said 'dad you are coming? ' Mr grey just nodes nervously

Mrs Brickson come to Sarah and gives her water and Sarah cry on her lap 'Mrs. Brickson. I don't know what's happening to me'

'Ssh ssh my child just take a deep breath..it's not good for Ava look how she is looking so scared ..'Mrs Brickson calm her down and when Sarah looked her child she holds her and kissed her while crying

'I know .. I know..but ..oh god.Theo will be ok?' Sarah asked nervously

Mrs. Brickson was stun how Sarah was worried about Theo after all this time he was nothing but a cruel bastard to Sarah but still she calm her down ' I believe he will be. Now you relax'

Sarah nodes but she won't relax...how can she when her mind and heart her confusing her like that.

Theo

'I don't know why I have been treated like a kid..I'm ok...and I said this like thousand times' Theo said in frustration, he was lying in the hospital bed...where a drip was connected in his arm.

Roma was crying 'We shouldn't even worried about you?...I lost a child once I don't want to lose another'

Theo close in eyes and said 'Mom I'm sorry..ok ..I'm just irritated that they won't let me go home tonight...it's just a small fracture in my arm and nothing else'

Theo dad said in a father tone 'Theo just follow the doctor order.You will be discharged in the morning ..it's good that you have a minor accident otherwise we all were scared to death,,, and poor Sarah was so shocked she almost fainted...and I think we should get back..we left Sarah like that'

Theo was shocked by what his father said.Sarah fainted...she must be happy that he is in pain.

Roma said 'I'm not going... I won't leave my son for that girl..'

Theo looked at his brother tom and asked him to control mom

Mr Grey said 'I don't know whats got into you ..you were blaming her and yelling her for no reason..it's unsettling for me what you did to Sarah'

Roma was about to say something but Tom said 'mom dad is right you guys go..I'm with Theo And you can see he is fine..so go and take a rest and I will bring Theo first thing in the morning and tell Lisa to take care and tell her to don't worry she was too upset by this news'

After a huge argument, Roma finally goes with Mr grey. Theo looked at his brother and said 'can you explain?'

Tom shakes his head 'Mom lost control...she said Sarah is a bad omen for the family and other stuff..she ignored dad was also there maybe she was in shocked when she heard that..but don't worry dad is no fool he will understand why mom reacted...although I think mom is somehow right Sarah is indeed a bad omen for our family...Look how things have been turning out in recent years' Tom said in disgust

Theo felt strange and little angry what Tom and mom said about Sarah but he was still stunned that Sarah was concern about him...what she doing to him...fuck it if she is playing him mind games...oh god..in the past two months Sarah is getting attached to him and he saw that and during night when he tried to be more less attached and intense don't know what happen to him that made him lost control. He closed his eyes and though what next will happen

In the morning he went home he saw his mother and dad standing...in the back, he saw his wife standing looking very pale with dark circles under her eyes like she didn't sleep for the whole night...Roma hugs Theo and settle him down and said to Sarah in disgust 'Go girl...Get the coffee and tea here'

He watched Sarah looked once again in Theo arm and then nodes...Theo father stopped her and said 'Roma what's wrong with you...her husband just got home and you are here telling her to bring coffee...You don't let both of them talk'

Everyone was quiet and looked strangely at each other than Lisa said 'yes Sarah dad is right ... I will bring the coffee and mom your tea'

Thank god Lisa covered it...Tom and theo pass a relieved glance towards Lisa.

Mr Grey asked Theo 'so how long the plaster will be removed from your arm?'

Tom smirk and laughed 'Dad you won't believe the doctor told him to be on 2-week bed rest and after that this plaster will be removed from his arm ...I'm just imagine how he will survive sitting in the bed

and doing nothing'

Theo glared at his brother 'shut up asshole I can work from here too and I won't sit here for weeks doctor has told me it can be removed before also if it heals early... I have to go to Miami...after last week of this month..dad you know about the gala thing I can't miss it'

Mr. grey shakes his head 'Theo you will do as a doctor has told you and Tom will look after the office till that time...and about the gala thing if you get well before that time period then you can go... now we need a good nurse.

Theo stops his dad and said 'no we don't I will manage... I won't be bound with a person for damn whole day'

'Than how you will recover soon Theo' Roma said in concern

Theo opens his mouth to say something but Sarah said 'I can take care of it...since I know the schedule properly how sir I mean Theo like to do his daily task.. I can do it easily'

Theo was shocked by what he was hearing even Sarah looked shocked at her words. Tom and Roma mouth was open. Mr. Grey breaks the moment and said 'But Sarah how you can when you have to take care of Ava. I still think a nurse is a good option'

Roma then said 'No Theodore let Sarah take care of her husband ' Roma was sure Sarah will fail and Theo will get angry and may be punished her

'but' Mr grey try to say more but Roma cut him and said 'well if both have no issues then we should be out of this'

With great convincing Mr. grey nodes. But Theo was still suspicious of why his wife is helping him?
