One last time

While Silvia was immersed in her own deep thoughts, a guard approached her. "Madam, boss is awake, he is looking for you." 

Wiping her tears away, Silvia took a deep breath and quickly stepped out of the room. 

….

Kevin's room. 

When Silvia entered the room, Kevin was sitting up straight with a huge frown on his face. 

"Why did you wake up? You are supposed to take rest," she stated. 

Scrunching his brows, he complained, "Where were you? Why did you leave me alone?" 

"I was just—" 

"Silvia, were you crying?" he frowned. 

"No I am not, something entered my eye and—" 

Cutting her off, he snapped, "What makes you think that you can lie to me?" When she did not say anything, he added, "I can ask the guards right now and they will tell me what happened. So what if I have to get up and might end up bleeding again, at least I will know who made my wife cry apart from me today." 

"You should rest first, we can talk about it tomorrow morning." She didn't want to stress him out by telling him what Sabrina told him so she decided to tell him about it later.

Kissing the back of her hand, he sighed, "How can I sleep in peace knowing there is something that is stressing you out? How do you expect me to rest when you are feeling restless? You know I can't do that babe, I love you and I hate seeing you this way." 

Keeping quiet for quite some time, she hesitated for a while before answering, "S-She was here." 

"Who?" Kevin frowned. 

"S-Sabrina," she answered. 

"What? Who let her in? Where were the guards and why didn't they chase her out?" Kevin fumed before trying to get up.

"Kevin what are you doing? You are not supposed to get down." Pushing him down, she added, "I let her in, it wasn't their fault." 

Scrunching his brows, he snapped, "Why would you do that? You know how she is, how could you let her come near you?" When she did not say anything, he frowned, "I am asking you something Silvia, you are supposed to answer me." With everything that was going around, it was very foolish to trust anyone especially someone like Sabrina who clearly did not have good intentions for Silvia or anyone else around them. They could only trust a handful of people who genuinely wanted to help them out of the situation.

"S-She had something important to tell me so I—" 

"And you believed her?" Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath to calm himself down. "What did she tell you?"

Looking at him with teary eyes, she answered, "She said that today's accident happened because of me and if I stay here, everyone close to me is going to get hurt and I'll end up losing everyone." Pausing for a while, she added, "So if I wanna keep them safe, I should—" she stopped midway and lowered her head. 

"You should what? Complete your sentence Silvia," he snapped. 

"I-I should leave." 

When Kevin did not say anything for a long time, she lifted her head up and glanced at him. He was staring at her with an expressionless face, it was very hard for her to say what he was thinking. 

Waiting for a while, she placed her hand on his. "Kev I—" 

Cutting her off, he remarked, "If you think the woman who abandoned you just because she wanted to live a pretentious peaceful and healthy life is right and you are willing to run away like a coward then leave right now." Pointing towards the door, he added, "The door is open. Go home, pack up your things and be gone by morning. After leaving, don't appear in front of me ever again." 

Pausing for a couple of seconds, he continued, "But if you trust your husband and the people around you, if you think all of us together will definitely find a way out of this then stop thinking about useless things and take a nap with me." 

Covering her face with both her hands, Silvia started crying. "The bed is small, you'll feel uncomfortable if I sleep there too." 

With a huge frown in his face, he shifted to the side. "Are you coming or not?" 

Left with no other choice, she cradled beside him before wrapping her hands around his bicep. Burying her face on his arm, she kept sobbing without saying anything. 

"Silvia, do you think I cannot keep you safe?" Kevin asked. 

Looking at him, she answered, "It's not like that, you make me feel very safe." She could feel the pain in his voice and knowing that she was the reason behind him feeling that way made her feel very guilty. 

"Then why would you want to leave? Why would you even consider leaving? How can you leave me alone just like that? What would I do without you?" 

"Everything is happening because of me, I thought—" 

Cutting her off, he sighed, "So you thought everything will be okay if you just disappear?" When she did not say anything, he added, "What makes you think everyone will be happy after you leave? Do you think your family, friends or me, will be happy after you leave? And what do you expect me to do after you leave? Get married again and live a happy life with some other woman? Is that what you want to happen after you leave?" 

Vigorously shaking her head, she muttered, "I can't see you with some other woman, don't say that again." 

Knocking her forehead, he sighed, "Why do you act so silly at times? You are supposed to be the sensible one Silvia." 

"No you are the sensible one, I am the dumb wife." 

Kissing the top of her head, he smiled, "We both are dumb and insanely in love with each other, I love you." 

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Silvia inquired, "If I leave, will you marry someone else?"
