"SEBASTIAN HAS WOKEN UP.."

★★Four Days Later★★

Zoey and Sebastian were awake now. Thankfully, the that was in charge of Zoey, made sure she recovered fully these few days. Zoey refused me from seeing her.

She didn't want to see anybody except Sebastian.

When she heard that Sebastian was awake, she quickly left her ward, rushing to the theatre room. After so much struggles from the nurses that refused her from going in, she finally made her way inside. Zoey rushed towards the bay Sebastian was lying on. He was happy to see her.

Sebastian was still on a life support, and he was responding to treatment positively.

"Zoey." He called out her name faintly.

"Father." She replied.

Sebastian was surprised to hear her call him father. He laughed out faintly by her reply, but she really meant that. She held his hands, looking into his eyes with tears in hers. She was really confusing Sebastian now.

"Why are you calling me father?". He asked her inquisitively.

"That's because you're my biological father. I know the truth now. Both of us were kept in the dark, but not anymore." Zoey revealed the truth to him.

Sebastian almost had a heart attack because of the revelation Zoey uttered. Zoey urgently called the Doctor's attention and he arrived at the theatre immediately. He injected some medicine into Sebastian's viens, that will slowky calm his burning heart down.

"Doctor will he be fine now?". Zoey asked him worriedly.

"Yeah sure. You need to give him some time alone too." Doctor Fredrick answered Zoey.

"Please let her be." Sebastian retreated.

Zoey smiled at Sebastian, and she was glad he stopped the doctor from chasing her away from the theatre room. She wants to spend quality time with Sebastian, especially now that she knows he's her biological father.

....

An hour later, Liam and I arrived at the hospital, after hearing from the doctor that he was finally awake. We came with some packaged cookies and foods I prepared for both him and Zoey. I have been secretly cooking for Zoey these few days and I'll hand it over to her nurse and make her lie to Zoey that she bought them at the hospital's cafeteria.

"I'll wait outside Liam." I said to him guiltily.

"Ignore your past sins now, and let us face reality." Liam said to me.

I nodded my head, following him inside. Zoey was sitting down on a high stool, next to Sebastian's bay. She was feeding him some water from a special bottled water can, given to him by Doctor Frederick.

"Liam!."He called out his name, on sighting him.

"Bro, I missed you so much." Liam said to Sebastian, hurriedly approaching his Bay for a hug.

I stood behind, while Zoey stared at me angrily, wondering why I was here. She hated me so much now, for what I have done. She has refused herself from forgiving me.

"Why is she here?". Sebastian asked Liam, staring at me.

"Why the cold tone?". Liam asked him.

"Zoey told me everything. She's my daughter." Sebastian opened up.

I wasn't surprised at all, because I knew that she would tell him everything as soon as he wakes up. I took in a deep breath, only bothered about my daughter.

"Why are you here mum? After the truth you hid from everyone." Zoey asked me.

"Please leave. I don't want to see you." Sebastian ordered me.

"Your condition doesn't need you to stress out yourself." Liam said to him.

I left the theatre immediately, sobbing like a baby. I rested my back against a wall outside the theatre, crying out my eyes. I have slowly lost rights for my own daughter. She hates me so much now.

"You should watch your tone, when speaking to her." Liam scolded Zoey.

"Stay out of this Liam. She betrayed me." Sebastian shunned him immediately.

Zoey looked at the door, knowing within her that she really responded rudely at me.

I left the hospital immediately, driving back home. On my way home, I dialed mum's number to inform her of everything that have been happening in my life lately.

"Hello Bianca." She called out to me on the phone, while she heard me crying at the background.

"I'm doomed mum. Everyone knows the truth now." I said to her in tears.

She was really surprised to hear that, and she insisted I come over to Birmingham, and talk about the entire situation with her and father. She really wanted to see me urgently.

I informed Jasmine that I would be traveling to Birmingham the next day, to see my parents and stay with them for some few days during this hard time.

***The Next Day***

Jasmine helped me with packing my luggages, and also assisted with carrying it into the car trunk. Before I left, She gave me a hug and some soothing words.

"Promise me that these few days you will be spending in Birmingham will give you the right decision to make." She said to me.

"Of course. I'll follow my heart, once I stay with my parents these few days." I said to her with a smile.

"Fighting!!." She shouted.

I nodded my head, while she pushed me into her arms. She comforted me for the last time, before allowing me to go finally. I was going to miss her company, but I needed my parents now. Zoey hates me so much presently, and that's the worst punishment I have ever received in my entire life.

Jasmine saw me off, waving a good bye at me. I returned back the wave, driving off.

It was a six hours journey, and I put on some music's that helped out my mood while I was driving.

I arrived at Birmingham, heading over to my parents old home. They were surprised to see me on a car. I never got the chance to tell them about the good news.

"Mum!!". I screamed out to her, running for a hug.

"You've lost so much weight Bianca. You look so stressed out." She said to me, while I hugged her tightly.

"Is everything really okay?". Father asked me.

I tried my best to avoid any questions at the moment, because I wanted to feel at home first. I have really missed our old house. There were so many lovely memories attached to this house. My life used to be peaceful, before I met Sebastian.

I entered inside the house with my luggages, looking round the house. My parents managed to return back our house to its old state.

I went into my former bedroom, and I was glad it was still intact. Mother placed back all those equipments that used to be in my bedroom, before our house got auctioned.

"I have really missed my home." I whisphered to myself.

"This bedroom, the balcony, the lounge, just everything." I muttered to myself, jumping on the bed before me.

My back landed on the bed, while I astrided my legs looking up at the ceilings. For a moment, it felt like all my problems had disappeared. But sadly, Zoey wasn't even in good terms with me presently. Mum entered inside my bedroom, surprised to see how I laid on the bed like a girl from the village.

"Is this the reason I told you to come back home?". She asked me.

"I want to forget everything. Here's more peaceful mum." I replied her.

"So Sebastian got into an accident and Zoey found out the truth, is that what you were trying to say on the phone yesterday?". She asked me.

I sat up on the bed, nodding my head vigorously. My face turned pale again. She was shocked and wondered how the cat slipped off the bag.

"She won't forgive you easily. Allow her be with her father, if that's what she really wants." Mum said to me.

"I can't accept that. Where was he all these years, when I nutured Zoey single handedly?". I asked her in tears.

"Just let them be. She'll come back to you, once she misses you." Mum replied me with harshness in the tone of her voice.

I kept quiet, just staring at her. I was slowly thinking in the same way with her. Maybe she was actually right. Zoey is all grown and can make decisions for herself. If Sebastian makes her happy, then I wouldn't want to ruin that for her, as I have already deprived her of such happiness in the past.
