Did I Make A Mistake?

'And I'm Carla!!' She yelled and Niall's fist was shaking. His eyes were gradually growing red.

He has realized that from the last two days his apoplexy has grown a lot, he gets quite quickly angry and he suffers to control it just to not create any chaos. He clenched his jaw when Carla said,

'I'm your future wife, why can't you concentrate on m....'

'Because I love her!!' He yelled and Carla looked at him with widened eyes.

She wasn't able to believe what Niall just said.

What?!! He loves Sarah! But why? It's only been a few weeks since he met her and I don't think Niall is the sort of person who could easily fall for a person. Then why Sarah?

Her mind was bursting with each possibility she could think of.

Maybe he's lying, cause he doesn't wanna marry me? But he said it to me without any hesitation, so...maybe he's saying the truth? But why Sarah and not me? I mean...I'm better than her, then why?

Niall turned and started to walk,

'Why not me Niall?' She yelled and he turned around.

'Why can't you love me, Niall, where am I lacking?' She asked in a soft voice.

Her eyes got filled with tears and her voice started to break,

'Am I..th...that wo..worse?' She asked.

Niall turned around and she saw him coming towards her. She thought that he'll hug her and comfort her.

'None. Of. Your. Business.' He said and turned again to go in.

'Niall! You're insulting me!! You don't even know what I can do to you!' She yelled.

Niall stopped for a second but didn't turn around and after listening to it he left.

'Fine then. I'll show you your place, Niall. You'll pay for not loving me Niall and you'll regret it until your last breath.' She murmured within herself when he went in and sat into his car to leave.

'Why are still standing? Leave Marylin or should I...make you go out as I did twenty years back.' Said Flora to me while I stood there in silence.

'Whe...re is m...my son?' I said in a voice that was breaking a lot in between.

'Huh?!' She said and bent towards me and placed her ear in front of my mouth.

'Where is Richie?' I whispered in pain.

'Oh, you mean Niall?! He hates you too, more than Johnathan.' She whispered and started laughing.

'Well, well, well. Enough drama for today.' She said in a normal voice then yelled,

'Now leave!!'

I started to walk back down towards the exit cause there was nothing I could do. I guess I got a bit late. Flora opened the door for me and before I stepped out she again said something like she said twenty years back when I was leaving.

'I guess your son is going to pay for this. Or should I say he is already?...' She said.

I looked at her with my teary eyes and gave a glare at her.

'Oh! It's funny to see you like that.' She giggled and I stepped outside the house.

On the one hand, where I was worried about Sarah on the other hand I was greatly scared for Niall. Somewhere I know that Flora is an insane lady and her affection for his son, Drake can make her do anything for him.

Did I make a big mistake by coming here?....

Meanwhile here, Caroline came home almost after one year but she found no one.

Neither her mom nor Sarah. She thought they might have gone outside for a while.

'Hello mom, there's a surprise for you. But where are you both...shopping?..' She asked.

'Sarah is at the hospital I'm here to meet her.' Aunt Margret said in a very low and sad voice.

'What?! Hospital!!' Said Caroline and took a cab to visit Sarah.

She came to the hospital, there were already Anna, Aunt Margret, and Aunt Hannah sitting there. There was one more guy whom Caroline was unaware of as she was with Anna.

Wearing a black jumpsuit and a light pink t-shirt in it, Caroline was looking quite cute. The two ponytails she made of her hair had left some of her hair which had landed on her beautiful face complimenting her Jade green eyes, thin dark brown eyebrows, small but thick eyelashes, and thin pink lips. She was a cute girl but quite intellectual.

She came to the lobby with her luggage and hugged her mom, Aunt Margret.

'Cally?! What are you doing here sweetie?' Aunt Margret asked being in shock after suddenly seeing her daughter with luggage standing in front of her.

'I told Sarah to keep a secret so that we can surprise you but...I guess it's too late.' Cally said.

Then she walked towards the door and watched lifeless Sarah lying without any hopes of getting recovered. Her eyes went teary. Obviously, who could be so insensitive not to cry after looking at Sarah?

Niall was depressed somewhere he knew that the reason behind Sarah's ill fate was he. But no one knew why he thought so except some of his close friends. He came home and saw his stepmom, Flora sitting there already.

'Mom what are you doing here? You know I didn't like anyone to be at my home without my permission.' He said and sat beside her.

'Oh! son sorry, but I was worried about you. I heard about your manager. How is she now?' She asked holding Niall's hand.

'She hasn't woke up yet.' Niall said with a blank expression.

'Son, you look depressed and tired are you okay?' She asks in a honeyed voice looking at Niall's pale face.

'Mhm....nothing.' He said and shook his head.

'Well, I've bought something for you.' She said and took out another bottle like a jar from her purse containing tablets.

'Again!' Niall said.

'Look mom I'm already feeling that those insomnia tablets are quite hard for me to digest and you're bringing another?' He said further and looked at Flora.

'Son, I care for you and I know you're depressed so...have these pills. They'll help you.' She said.

She then stood up,

'Going?' Asked Niall.

'Yeah, I have some work left so..' She said and started walking towards the exit door.

Niall sat there in silence and suddenly he realized that Flora has been here before him. He thought she might have gone into his room. He got worried.

'What if she saw the frame?' He thought and asked.

'Mom!' Flora stopped and turned around.

'Did you went up, to my room?' He asked and stood up.

'No son, why would I?' She said and started walking out.

Niall sighed in relief and took one pill from the jar that Flora had given just now.

Where on the other hand Flora went out smirking and said,

'It wasn't a good idea Marylin to show up all of a sudden....'

Then she said in mediation,

'But unfortunately, your son trusts me a lot....'
