240 I am telling the truth (1/2)

”I know you will not let me go, but think about me. I just can not live with you .I clearly remember that Lucas had sold me to a man. That man was a gangster. Jackson also tried to save me.”Zinu said with her eyes lowered.

”What? What have you just told?” John Smith asked in surprised tone.

”I am telling the truth. Jackson told me about Lucas's plan. He sold me to an underworld gangster. Jackson wanted to save me from them and ran away from the island. But I denied his offer. I have seen how ruthless Lucas was. He would have kill that poor Jackson, if he tried to help me. So ,I decided to ran away myself. But Lucas's men found me and sprayed some chemical and after that I could not remember anything. Do you think Lucas would have let me go that easily? I ..... I think the gangster mentioned by Jackson must ...... ” Zinu could not complete her sentence.

John Smith looked at Zinu.Tears rolled down through her cheeks. John Smith wiped her tears with thumb and held her hands. But Zinu could not stop crying.

”Zinu. Please don't cry. Please calm down. Why are you thinking all these? You should not stress yourself. It will have effect on your brain. The doctors said not to strain yourself. Please listen to me. Lucas could not do anything to you. Please Zinu. Please believe me. The gangster ,to which Lucas had sold you ,none other than me.” John Smith said with low voice.

”What? What did you say? That ... that gangster is you? But how is it possible? I mean ...... are ..... are you a gangster? B ..... But Jackson said that the person to whom Lucas was sending me was Mr Simon. How did you become Mr Simon? Ah ,I am confused.”Zinu said in confused tone.

”Calm down darling. You should not react like this. Please Zinu, I will tell you everything later. Now you should take rest. But don't think about leave me. You are not impure .For me you are always pure and clean. I don't care, if you are pure or not. I only love you. I can not live without you. Please Zinu, don't say about leaving me .I can not tolerate it. Once you return home, I will explain everything in details. Ok? Now you take rest. You have already strained your brain a lot.” John Smith said with a smile.

Zinu looked at John Smith .She could see love and trust in his eyes. She nodded and closed her eyes. John Smith was correct. She must have strained her brain too much. She was too tired to keep her eyes open. Within a minute, she went back to a deep slumber. John Smith looked at her sadly. He sighed.

”Lucas. Your end is coming. You have gone overboard .I will find you where ever you are hiding. Just wait for me.” John Smith said with a deep sigh.

”Dad! How is mom? We are here to see her.”

John Smith looked at the door. Ronnie was there with Alicia and Sofia.

”Yes. My dear. She is totally fine. But now she is tired .Come, sit near your mother. Mom, mother please come.” John Smith said.

”Yes mother. I just talked with her. She is totally fine now .Mother, Mom, Will you stay with her for some time? I have to go to the base now. I have something to do there. I will take Ronnie with me. He can come here again with grandma.” John Smith asked.

”Sure we will love to. You can go and do your work.” Sofia said.

”Yes John we are here with her. You need not to worry much.” Alicia replied.

”Dad I want to stay here with mom. Grandma will come with Dolly aunt later. I will return home with them .”Ronnie said happily .He was very happy to get back his mother .

”Ok. You can stay here. Now I am leaving. I should not waste my time.” John Smith said and left the hospital hurriedly.
