Chapter 148 - I'll try harder

Aunt Lily hugged Steve before bursting into tears.

" Mom? What happened?" Steve asked before looking around.

" Sis what are you doing here? You had gone for you honeymoon right?" Steve asked.

Janet cleared her throat and said," Steve my baby, you don't remember anything?"

" Remember what?" Steve asked.

Walking towards Steve, Janet said," You've been one comatose for five years baby."

Steve widened his eyes in shock and said," What? Five years? How is that possible?"

Caressing his back, Janet said," Don't panic okay but that the truth boy. Oh my you have suffered."

Rocky helplessly shook his head when he saw his girlfriends excellent acting skills.

Silvia was about to say something but Ron who had appeared out of nowhere grabbed her hand and gestured her not to say anything.

" But how come you still look the same?" Steve asked.

" It's not that Steve, I have aged too but I skin is just flawless." Janet said.

" This is impossible and what about my growth? My height?" Looking down, Steve said," Everything looks the same."

" Your body stopped growing when you were in comatose." Ron added in a very serious tone.

Steve who was on the verge of crying looked towards Silvia and said," Sis what do I do now?"

" Alright now stop teasing the little boy now." Aunt Julie said before playfully smacking Janet's arm.

Janet chuckled and said," Ehh aunty, you spoiled our little act."

" Did you look at his face?" Aunt Julie said before cupping Steve's face. 

" Are you feeling okay son?" Aunt Julie asked.

" Yes aunty but will anyone will tell what is going on?" Steve asked.

Aunt Lily sat beside him and said," You have been staying in this hospital room for two weeks now Steve."

Steve breathed a sigh of relief when he heard ' Two weeks'," Ahh thank God. For a second I thought-"

" Thank God? You have any idea how badly you scared us?" Uncle Thomas said.

" It's not his fault uncle, it's all my fault." Amy said.

Steve widened his eyes in shock and asked," You- you are here too?"

" She has been here since day 1." Aunt Lily said.

" You didn't have to stay here. I saved you out of humanity okay? So you don't have to feel guilty." Steve said.

" Its fine." Amy said.

Pulling his mom closer, Steve said," Mom, how could you let her stay? Why did you let her take all the trouble? She looked so scared when I saved her and-"

" She is Janet's sister." Aunt Lily said.

" Wait what?" Steve asked.

" Yes, she is my sister." Janet said.

" Ahh everyone let's not make the boy faint again. Let's go out and let him take some rest." Uncle Herpi said.

" I'll stay." Silvia said.

After everyone left, Silvia sat beside Steve and smacked his arm before giving him a hug," I was so scared."

" Did you leave your honeymoon midway for me?" Steve asked.

" Does that even matter?" Silvia asked.

Steve sighed and said," I am sorry."

" Don't act so recklessly next time." Silvia said.

Steve nodded his head and said," Is that girl really sister Jan's sister?"

When Silvia nodded her head, Steve asked," So is she single?"

" Steve." Silvia said.

" What? She is cute okay and Valentine's Day is coming. I want a date too." Steve said.

" You are unbelievable." Silvia said before tucking him inside the blanket.

" Sis find it out for me whether she is single or not okay? If she is I'll try my luck." Steve said.

" And what if she is not?" Silvia asked.

" I'll try harder." Steve said in a drowsy voice. 

" See you just woke up and started talking so much. Take some rest." Silvia said.

Steve nodded his head and dozed off to sleep.

After making sure Steve was comfortable and everything was okay, Silvia stepped out of the room.

….

Outside.

" Hey babe." Ron said before giving Silvia a hug.

Hitting him on his chest, Silvia said," You finally realised that I exist?"

" Exactly, this man deserves a good beating." Janet said before punching Ron.

Hooking his arms around Silvia and Janet, Ron said," Don't make me use force."

" You know you can't win against us." Silvia said.

" Hey Ron, are you cheating on us?" Janet asked.

" Wait what?" Ron asked.

" How can you do that to us Ron? How can you cheat on us?" Silvia said before wiping her fake tears away.

" Didn't we give you enough love and affection?" Janet said.

" You two have gone crazy." Ron said before flicking their foreheads.

" Hey Don't do that." Silvia said before smacking his arm which made Ron wince in pain.

" What happened?" Silvia asked.

" It's nothing." Ron said.

Janet frowned and said," That is it pull up your selves."

" It's fine." Ron said.

When Silvia and Janet forcefully pulled his selves up, both of them gasped when they saw deep red mark on his arm.

" How did this happen?" Silvia asked.

" Gy-"

Cutting him off, Janet said," Now don't you dare tell me Gym." 

" It's nothing okay." Ron said.

" Ron is someone bullying you?" Silvia asked.

" Yes, tell your mommies if someone is because we are gonna break their nose." Janet said.

Giving both of a hug, Ron said," No one is bullying me okay? You both think too much."

" You know that you can share everything with us right?" Silvia said.

" I know." Ron said.

When the three friends were being affectionate with each other, two men were sulking in the corner.

" That is why I don't like Male-best friends. The entire concept is shitty." Rocky said.

" Heh, I am lucky in this case. Martha had one too. Do you all remember that American guy with light brown eyes?" Chris asked.

" Your girlfriend would never leave his side." Rocky said.

" Exactly but now he is gone so I don't have anything to worry about." Chris said.

Without saying anything, Kevin kept on staring at Silvia who was busy hugging some other man right in front of his eyes. Though he knew that Ron was a very close friend of hers but he couldn't stop himself from feeling jealous.
