She was dazed by my revelation. For so long I have hidden such an enormous secret from her. She stood up on her feet and slapped me across the face with much strength, she could not imagine.
" how could you do this to me " she barked at him.
Still in my cold look, my expression unchanged.l looked at her with a feeling of anger mixed with unspeakable love.
"It was for a reason" I said
I was about to leave when she rushed to the door with such urgency that made him feel surprised.
"Aden, you go no where. I don't think I will ever forgive myself"
She began to cry. She started feeling unconscious and feel off balance, her head felt blant immediately.
"What is wrong with her, doctor" I had a tense look.
"Well we have done some series of examination and...." he got interrupted by my anxious voice.
"Can you just go straight to the point you bastard" I roared
"I'm sorry sir " he said with fear
"She's suffering from a Cardiac attack" he stopped to take a glance at his boss. He has been working for the family for quick a while, since the youngest daughter was born.
"I think..." he paused
"Speak up"
"She might not make it, sir. She had been with with the illness for long, though she's on medication but something triggered it. We promise to do our best to get her recovery back, sir.
"Please, do everything you can to make her healthy"
"We will,Aden"
"Can I see her now"
"Of course"
A nurse was checking on her. My heart skip when I saw her feeling Arina's pulse. After she was done, she told me that I could see her now and went out.
I walked slowly to the bed side, feeling each step heavy and unsure.
I pulled her hand from under the sheath and put mine in hers. I began to cry because have lost all hope. She has been in coma for a week now, all because of me.
Arina slowly opened her eyes, adjusting to the light of the room. She had a severe headache and felt her whole body was shutting down.
With much strength she could gather, she forced herself to say the only thing that was in her brain that moment
"Aden"
At first I thought it was my illusion, for weeks now I haven't heard that voice that keeps me alive. I grabbed both of her hands and kissed it.
"Arina, my love. Please, forgive me for hiding the secret from you" then he began to sob. "Your cardiac attack is worst because of me,I'm so sorry sweetie"
"No I'm the one to feel guilty. I put you into it, Aden. Don't worry about me, you accepted me even with my condition and I want to say a very big thank you to you, my love."
She felt herself falling into a dark deep hole and couldn't help it. All her words came out in whisper.
"Aden, I love you" she couldn't believe that it was almost over for her.
"Please, move on when I'm gone. I will be very happy to see you happy too, this is my last wish ,Aden. Forgive me" she gave up the ghost.
"Forgive me too honey"
I was still not aware that she was gone, begging her to forgive me. I felt her hands and it was cold. I kissed her forehead.
The doctors guickly rushed in and I was forced to go out of the ward.
My whole body shook violently. I was in a totally different dimension
The doctor came out and I rushed to him. He finally announced to me that she was dead. That was the worst information I had have in my whole life. I completely broke down
"Aden, stop making me spoilt. I feel so shameful that I can't cook and you don't see anything wrong with that"
"I will always cook for you, darling. I will spoil you because I owe you and no one else"
"I will be in trouble if your mother finds out"she said pouting.
"She can do nothing, don't stress your self,my love and enjoy seeing me cook.
Her sweet voice, everything became a reality to him. The love of is life is gone.....
