Chapter 339 - Crossing The Paths.

One Morning…

After many days, Brina and Louis had their fill.  

They woke up very content. 

However, to their disappointment, they couldn't extend it to late morning and continue their love making.  

Brina shouldn't overexert herself and moreover, they have Will upstairs. It would make him sad if his aunt spent very less time with him.  

She must be there by the time he wakes up. Otherwise he would get depressed. 

Louis actually pitied that little guy.

He is clearly facing trauma. He is afraid of losing his aunt that, whenever his aunt is not there when he wakes up, he gets tense. 

So, Louis never keeps Brina in bed for a long time in the mornings. Although it's been just a week, Will woke up, he somehow felt connected to that little guy. 

It might be because of his eyes which are exactly like his aunt's.

On the bright side....

Will's sleeping time started reducing.

It's been a week since he woke up but he spent almost ninety percent of his time sleeping.

He is not as active as when he woke up the first time.

It is because of his powerful medicines.

They are drowsy and tranquilizing.

His thoughts are muddled up and he is always sleepy.

Doctors assured them that it's common because of his surgery. His surgery was pretty huge for his age, so it would take time to mould back to normal. 

And, afraid of making him confused and suffocated, Dr. Lee didn't even allow any new persons to meet him till now.

Which included Louis as well. 

And, today is the day Louis and Will are meeting for the first time. 

This week, he started getting accustomed to the outer environment and he could think clearly.... at least a bit. 

….

"Will, meet your uncle" Brina introduced Louis to Will who just woke up and is a little active. 

The intensity of his medicines got reduced this week. So, he has been little okay. 

Will blinked his eyes and looked at the man who was his arm wrapped around his aunt's waist.

They looked good together. 

"Hi, Will. I heard a lot about you from your aunt" Louis said, smiling at his little competitor.  

'Hmm.. Not bad. Though he is not as handsome as me, he looks good overall.' Will thought. 

'Far better than that idiot Nick' he added after a little more observation. 

'He is looking at my aunt just like how my dad used to see my mom. So, he definitely loves my beautiful aunt' he noticed.

And, suddenly his mind struck there. 

He totally forgot about this… 

But, where are his mom and dad now… 

'Grandma, Grandpa, mom, dad… 

they didn't escape with me and aunt. 

Does.. Does. That means they… they died

Otherwise, they would have been here'

His parents promised they would be there by the time he woke up the next morning. They promised!!! 

Even that thought of not able to see them anymore horrified him and he suddenly felt his heart pain.  

It started burning and his head started to hurt.  

Because of his medications, he was sleeping like a log, no thoughts. 

Now, it suddenly stuck in his mind like a lightning bolt. 

"Will baby, what happened??" Brina anxiously asked as she held him. However, Will clutched his head and fainted. 

Brina freaked out. 

Seeing him like this is enough for her to lose all her strength. 

"Will...honey...wake up" Brina anxiously spoke as she patted his face gently. 

She looked at Louis with teary eyes, "he...he fainted" she choked. 

Louis was already in the process of calling his doctors who are in the hospital which is specially set up for Will.

As it is just a street away, the bodyguards and everyone reacted fast. 

Within five minutes, Will was transferred to the hospital.  

After some time.. 

Brina sat there worried and very anxious. Even Louis's comfort and embrace didn't help her much this time.. 

"Dr. Lee, what's happening to him? Is this any side effects?" Brina asked, 

"Don't worry, Kid. As I said he was weak, so I guess, he would have remembered something that would have made him overwhelm. He will wake up soon." Dr. Lee said. 

"Are you saying that this will happen to him again?" Brina asked, totally freaked out. 

"We will be here to take care of him, kid. Everything will be alright." 

"And, these episodes are expected, trust me. He just woke up from a long sleep and there are many things he is yet to recall and whenever he encounters some incomprehensible things, he will react a little intensely. It's normal, so, don't worry" he said, comforting Brina.  

He gestured to Louis to take Brina away.

So much anxiety and fear is not good for her and the baby. 

Louis nodded his head and Brina reluctantly left Will in the hospital. 

Why is her happiness always short termed??

…..

Meanwhile…..

When Brina and Louis are busy in Will's issue, at the other side of town, something more serious is taking place. 

Nickolas is sitting in front of the woman who is looking at him with suspicious eyes. 

"Are you sure Nick?" she asked.  

"I am sure, Layla." Nickolas said.  

"Could I rely on you?" she asked again, suspicious. 

"I don't understand why you are suspecting me, now. For God's sake I have been working with you for two years" Nick said.  

Layla sighed and looked at him.

"I have a friend. A girl" 

"She got betrayed by the people she trusted the most and the people who have worked with her for years backstabbed her mercilessly."

"After listening to that, I couldn't comprehend whom I should believe and whom I shouldn't," Layla said.  

"Her blood related, her best friends and the worst, her own fiance betrayed her. You on the other side are not connected to me at all. Not by blood nor by heart nor by revenge. On what basis should I trust you now?" she demanded.  

"See, it's not like I am suspecting specifically you. I just don't want to risk it, Nick. I already lost my boyfriend and with that, my daughter lost her father. If I get betrayed now, she will lose her mother too, to the same  enemies"
