Chapter 145 - Truth

When Rocky saw Janet running out of the room, he asked," What happened?"

" Amy says she saw Steve move his pinky so I am going to call the doctor." Janet said.

Chris and Kevin quickly rushed towards the room while Rocky and Janet rushed to call the doctor.

…..

Inside the room.

" I swear, he moved his pinky." Amy said.

" What happened?" Kevin asked.

" He just moved his finger." Silvia said who already had tears in her eyes.

Wrapping his arms around her shoulders, Kevin said," Don't worry, he is going to be okay."

Just then the doctor entered the room along with Janet and Rocky.

After running a few tests on Steve, the doctor said," The vitals are normal again and he will be up within a few hours. We will again run a few tests again after he wakes up." 

Silvia and the rest breathed a sigh of relief.

After the doctor left, Kevin said," I'll go and check out a few things at the reception and bring some take outs for everyone, you should take some rest okay?" 

Silvia smiled and nodded her head.

After Kevin left, Dr Johnathan entered the room.

" Silvia." Johnathan said before approaching her.

Silvia quickly got and up and greeted him," Good evening Dr Johnathan."

" I just arrived and heard about your brother from Dr Bing." Johnathan said.

" He is okay now." Silvia said.

" I am so sorry I couldn't come early. I had gone out of town for a seminar." Johnathan said before placing his hand on Silvia's shoulder.

" You are fine right?" Johnathan asked.

Taking a step back, Silvia removed his hand from her shoulder and said," I am fine."

Chris raised his eyebrows when he sensed Silvia's awkwardness around that handsome looking touchy doctor who was trying to touch his sister-in-law.

" Are you a neurologist?" Chris asked.

" No." Johnathan said.

Walking closer, Chris asked," Are you a nurse? NIS?" 

Johnathan frowned and said," No, I am not."

" Then who are you?" Chris asked before pulling Silvia away from Johnathan.

" I am a doctor." Johnathan said.

" What kind?" Chris asked.

" Orthopedist." Johnathan said.

" I don't remember anyone with a broken bone or any kind of joint or muscle problem here, so what are you doing here?" Chris asked.

" I just came here to check on nurse Silvia." Johnathan said.

" Nurse Silvia is fine it's her brother whom you should check on." Rocky said.

Johnathan frowned at the two men who were attacking him simultaneously.

" If you are done checking on my sister-in-law then you can leave." Chris said.

" I'll see you around nurse Silvia." Johnathan said before walking out.

" Are you okay?" Chris asked Silvia.

Silvia smiled and said," I am fine."

" Why don't you just report about him?" Rocky said.

" Dr Johnathan is especially touchy only for Silvia." Janet said.

" Kevin would definitely not like it if he had seen this." Chris said.

" I wouldn't like what?" Kevin asked.

" Nothing." Silvia said before Chris or Rocky could say anything.

Kevin nodded his head and said," I already told mom and dad about this. They wanted to rush here now but I told them not to."

" Both of you should take some rest too." Janet said.

" I am okay." Silvia said.

" Let's have dinner first and the lets take a short nap okay?" Kevin said before turning towards the rest.

" You people should also eat first and then go home and get some rest." Kevin said

After having dinner together, Rocky said," We will come back tomorrow then."

" Take care okay?" Chris said before walking out of the room.

After everyone left, Kevin hugged Silvia from behind and asked," Tired?"

Leaning against him, Silvia said," Not so much."

" Come, let's take a short nap." Before pulling her towards the couch.

Hooking her arms around his, Silvia took a deep breath and asked," Kev he is going to be okay right?"

Kissing her forehead, Kevin said," Yes, don't worry, everything is going to be okay."

Placing her head on his shoulder, Silvia closed her eyes. She knew Kevin had no control over what might happen in the future but after getting his assurance, her heart felt calm and composed.

…..

Jones mansion.

" Why?" Grandpa Jones asked.

" I have no idea." Jackie said.

They had just received the news about Kevin wanting to meet him urgently tomorrow morning.

" Do you think that he knows?" Grandpa Jones asked.

Jackie sighed and said," I don't think so."

Grandpa Jones thought for a while and said," Comfrim the appointment and ask Kevin to meet me at my office tomorrow at 9 am sharp." 

Jackie nodded his head and left.

…..

Hospital.

Next day everyone arrived at the hospital early in the morning.

When they entered the room, Silvia was still soundly sleeping in Kevin's arms.

Gesturing the others not to make any sound, Kevin slowly made her lie down on the couch and covered her with a blanket that the hospital had provided them with.

Walking towards the others, Kevin said," She did not sleep properly at night so let her sleep for a while."

" Are you going somewhere?" Uncle Herpi asked.

Kevin nodded his head and said," Yes but I'll be back soon." before walking out of the room.

…..

Outside.

" Kevin stop right there." Uncle Herpi said.

Turning towards his father, Kevin asked," What is it now?"

" Now tell me honestly where you are going?" Uncle Herpi asked.

Staring at his father for quite sometime, Kevin said," With your sources and connection I am a hundred percent sure that you already know who did this to Steve the very next day father. But since you chose to keep quiet and not pursue the matter anymore, it makes me more curious and I want to know why."

" Some things are better if they remain untouched my boy. Don't try to dig things and make life difficult for Silvia as well as you. Thomas and I decided to let the matter go because we have our reasons." Uncle Herpi said.

" So you expect me to keep shut despite knowing who did this to my brother-in-law? What do I tell my wife? I cannot tell her that I do know who did this to your brother but I am not gonna do anything because I want to live a peaceful life with you?" Kevin asked.

Pausing for a while, Kevin said," I know you people are hiding something and you know what dad, you don't have to tell me anything because I'll find out the truth sooner or later."
