Arthur, ”....” who got stood up with his arms open. Helen giggled looking at her goofy husband who was looking so disappointed. Arthur looked at her wife and gave his devilish smile saying” Hi honey. How was your day?”

Arthur Williams was well respected criminal defence lawyer who a partner at a well reputed firm. Giving a brief peck to his wife he sat on the sofa lookingat Mia showing her sister the dollhouse.

”Had back to back surgeries today. I am so tired.” said Helen resting her head on her husbands shoulder.

Helen's phone started ringing. Caller ID showed Matilda. She frowned, feeling nervous and apprehensive thought whether her baby was alright. Why was she calling her?

”Hello Helen, it's Matilda.”

”Hi Matilda. What's going on?”

”Helen. He is awake. Logan is awake.” said Matilda barely containing her excitement.

”Whaaatt! ” Helen stood upright in her place. ”Tilly plz don't joke about this”

” Do you think so less of me Helen. He is awake. His brain function is showing improvement” said Matilda angrily.

Arthur could sense something was wrong with his wife. Tears started streaming down Helen's face. In a trembling voice she looked at Arthur and said” My baby... our baby. He is awake. My son is awake Arthur... Tilly, we will be there as soon as possible. We will talk when we see. See u soon. Bye. Tilly... Thanks!”

She looked at her husband who was always goofy and happy feeling apprehensive yet excited talking on his phone trying to book tickets for the earliest flight.

She called out to Mia and Isabella. ” Girls. Go pack your things. We are going to see your big brother,” she said.

”Is big brother going to play with me this time? ”

”Yes baby yourbig brother has woken up.”

Bella has been 8 when Logan got into the accident. Her brother had always been looking after her. She always felt like she could do anything if her brother was there. Her eyes felt hot. She felt her eyes fill up.

Mia looked at her mother and sister. She felt boys are really mean..
