Patricia's phone rang and she picked it up, "Hello".
"Hi"
"Tatiana, your okay" she yelled getting up and catching the attention of the others.
"Am fine, we are at the hospital now?" she said.
"Your hurt"
"No, just come and I will explain," she told her which hospital and they all drove there.
She was being transferred to her room when she saw Patrica and the other her.
"Tatiana" she called.
"Mommy" little Gabriel cried seeing his mother's face.
She hugged them both, "Am sorry I made you worried"
Eric and Alex hugged her, Steve was aside in silence letting them express their happiness.
"Steve "she called. The others moved away and he walked up to her." Am sorry I didn't listen to you "
He smiled holding back his tears," You don't know how worried I was, the fear of losing you drove me crazy "
She held him apologizing.
After she got into her room, she lay down.
"What happened and where is Jack?" Eric asked.
"Jack is out of the operation room he was shot but his okay now, the doctor would not let me wait out there and told me to come to lie down. Teddy's brother kidnapped me and he tried to rescue me so he was taken too" she told them how they escaped and slept in a haunted cabin even when she knew it was a lie, then how she was able to get help up to the hospital.
Eric and Patricia later went and checked on his friend while Steve remained with the now-sleeping Tatiana and her son.
Alex and Mark left to go get some food for all of them.
....
"Tatiana" Jack woke up calling her name, Eric held him putting him back down.
"Calm down, she's okay," he said.
He turned and saw his friend next to Patrica.
"Thank you for protecting her," she said.
"Is she okay?" he asked.
Eric sighed, "Tatiana is fine, but you are not. You lost a lot of blood it's a miracle you survived, the doctor said you have to rest ".
"Am fine, I want to see her?" he said getting up.
"Hi don't move or your would open," Eric said.
"Just let me see her for while just to make sure she's okay" he persisted.
Patricia moved closer, "Okay let me go get her" and walked out of the door.
She knocked on Tatiana's door waking her up.
"Am sorry bestie, but he asking to see you and the doctor told us not to let him move or his wound will open but his refusing to listen and wants to come here?" she said.
Tatiana turned to Steve and sighed.
The door to his room opened and Patrica wheeled Tatiana in.
Eric moved away so they could move her closer to Jack.
They went out leaving them alone. Steve was standing outside too.
"Why don't you listen to the doctor," she said.
"I just wanted to see if your okay," he said.
"Here I am, am okay and hope you get better too so I don't feel like I owe you for saving my life," she said.
He chuckled, "But it feels like you saved mine"
"We all played a part in our escape so it's nothing," she said.
"Thank you Tatiana for not letting me die out there. You had the chance I avenge for your mother and all the bad things I did but didn't and took care of me instead"
"That's what makes us different Jack, yes I want revenge for what you did to me but I can never let you die in front of me" she glanced at him and turned her wheelchair, "get well soon and thank you".
She opened the door and wheeled herself out. Steve looked back meeting his eyes with Jack's and sighed then pushed her away.
