Chapter 168 - CHAPTER 165 (1/2)
Rose opened her eyes and saw Ermanno seated next to her on a chair.
Rose smiled wide but soon stopped smiling instantly and sat up in a hurry and asked ”Ermanno, Xavi?”
”Hey hey. Don't worry. He is fine” said Ermanno and held her arms.
Rose looked at Ermanno and looked down and then away.
Ermanno held her face and turned her to look at him and asked: ”Are you not happy to see me?”
”Ermanno, he.. He..” Cried, Rose.
”We will fight this out together,” said Ermanno and hugged Rose.
”Aren't you disgusted by me?” Asked Rose.
”He forced himself on you. It is only fair he is punished. You were forced on. Don't feel less of yourself because of his sins” said Ermanno.
”He had Xavi,” said Rose.
”No he didn't,” said Ermanno.
”What do you mean?” Asked Rose.
”After he took you, he was going for Xavi, but mummy didn't let him get Xavi. During the fight with Harry to stop him from taking Xavi, Harry stabled mummy and now she is struggling to stay alive. She is in the coma right here in this hospital” said Ermanno.
Rose cried out loud and said ”I am so stupid. God why was I even born?”
Ermanno hugged her and said ”you were born for me. I love my Rose”
”How can you love me?” Cried Rose.
”Because that what I know. I know to love you. You my love. You are my wife. You are my life Mio Rosa” said Ermanno and hugged her.
Rose cried her heart out then suddenly paused and asked ”where is mummy? I want to see her.”
Ermanno took Rose to Sabrina's ward and both saw Elisio seated beside Sabrina and talking to her.
”Rose is okay. Xavier is okay. Little Emerald is okay and your dumb son is okay too. See, everyone is okay. Don't you want to see them happy? That's what you always wanted right? Your son to be happy. He has his family now. He will be happy but what about me? My happiness is only with you mio fiore. Please get up my love.” said Elisio.
”Dad” called Ermanno.
Elisio didn't look at Ermanno as he had tears in his eyes.
Rose moved forward and stood at the other side of Sabrina and called her ”mummy” and cried.
”Mummy please get up. If you don't get up, dad will kill me” said Rose.
Rose looked at Elisio and said ”I am sorry”
Elisio looked at Rose and said ”for the first time it was not your fault”
Rose was looking at Sabrina and shedding tears when Arlo and Sabina walk in the room.
Sabina hugs Rose and consoles her.
”She will get better. Don't worry. How are you?” Asked Sabina.
”I want to die” cried Rose.
”Don't say things like that. Think of your children before even considering doing something stupid.” Said Sabina.
”My children. Oh my god, I want to see them.” Said Rose.
”You will soon. Your children need you. Especially Xavi. He is shook by the incident and needs his mother” said Sabina.
”I feel so broken” said Rose.
”A mother is all about strength. You have to find that strength for your children” said Sabina and Rose hugged her and cried more.
Arlo signals Ermanno to come out and Ermanno nods.
”What's wrong?” Asks Ermanno.
”I talked to the doctor and he says there is no improvement in flower's condition. At this rate there is no telling when she will stop breathing” said Arlo.
Ermanno bit his fist and Arlo held his shoulder.
”What do we say dad?” Asked Ermanno.
”I'll talk to him” said Arlo.
Ermanno took a deep breath to stop himself from crying and nodded.
They both turned to walk back into the room and saw Elisio standing and staring at them.
”Bro” said Arlo and was about say something more but Elisio stopped him and said ”I want my fiore to be shifted to her home” and walked back to the room.
”He heard us” said Ermanno and Arlo just looked at where Elisio walked off.
Rose was discharged after two days and when she returned she hugged her children and cried.
”Mummy I tried saving you but I could not” said Xavier.
”You are so brave. I know you tried” said Rose and hugged Xavier and cried.
”Mummy don't cry.” Said Emerald and wiped her tears.
Ermanno came close to Rose and tried to hold her close but Rose moved away.
Ermanno knew she was traumatized and needed time.
