AMELIA'S POV {MOM'S POV}
I have never felt this heartbroken ever in my life , it's a curse for any mother to see her child in such condition , i always felt that nothing could ever break me , how wrong i was to even think like that , seeing my little baby in such condition has broken me beyond repair , how am i going to fix my daughter .
That motherfucker hurt my daughter so much , she is in this condition because of him , i wish i knew who he was , i would have found him by now and slit his throat after torturing him in a worst possible way .
"She will be fine mom " i kept my head on ethaan's chest as he wrapped his arms around me , i didn't want to break down , i wanted to stay strong but looking at her so pale and lifeless was somewhere snatching away the very soul out of me .
"how is she" ehshan asked the doctor after he checked her .
"she was in trauma but i have given her some injections , she will be alright by tomorrow , i would just suggest for Mrs Knight to come first infront of her , so she doesn't get another panic attack" the doctor said and left along with the nurses .
"you all should leave , i'll stay here" i said and they nodded after kissing her forehead and giving me a hug except for nate who was still sitting on the bed beside her , holding her hand close to his chest . I walked over to him and my heart broke as i saw his cheeks drenched with tears
"nate" i kept my hand on his shoulder . He wrapped his hand around my waist and hugged me .
"this is all my fault" i stilled for a second , how could he blame himself , if someone was at fault then it was that monster who tortured her or it was all of us who couldn't protect her .
"shhh nate, it's not your fault ok ?" i stroked his hairs as he sniffled like a child .
"i am the worst father , i couldn't protect my own daughter from some random man , when she will wake up , she would hate me " he cried and i couldn't stop my own tears from falling , i gulped down the sob in my throat and looked at my unconscious daughter and decided to stay strong for her .
"look at me nate" i cupped his face and wiped his tears .
"we can't break , our daughter needs us and she would never hate you , you are the best father and she loves you a lot too , trust me she would never like seeing you or any of us crying like this , we need to be strong , that bastard has taken away her smile , her life and we need to give that back to her , we need to bring our rose back from all her misery , we need to find that bastard and punish him for what he did to her " i said and he nodded .
"you are right amy, we need to find him and help our daughter , i won't let someone else wrong deeds snatch my daughter away from me , from us" he said determined .
"c'mon now you should go and sleep , i will stay here with her" i said but he shook his head .
"i'll also stay here , i'll take the couch " he said stubbornly .
"nate, you heard what the doctor said" i reminded him
"but-"
"no buts , you go and i will stay with her , don't worry , she is sedated she won't wake up " i told him and he nodded .
"get well soon , my little flower , your papa is missing you" he said kissing her forehead .
"call me , if you need anything" he said kissing my forehead , i nodded giving him a reassuring smile and then he left .
I switched off the lights and slide under the duvet beside her , pulling rose closer to me , i wrapped my one arm around her and stroked her hairs with another , kissing her forehead , i laid back .
She looked just as serene as she looked the first time i held her in my arms , just like this she used to sleep beside me whenever she used to have nightmares or she didn't want to sleep alone . she would keep my hand around her waist and ask me stroke her hairs .
She used to say that my finger had some magic , she used to say "mama , whenever you stroke my hairs , all the stress , tension , fear and bad feelings leave me , your touch is my shield , it helps me escaping all the pain and nightmares" i chuckled but a sob left my throat .
"i hope i can again be your shield , my baby" i kissed her cheeks and kept stroking her hairs wishing she won't have any nightmare , i caressed her until i slipped into the darkness.
