HIS lOVE MY DESTRUCTION

Chapter 17: CONSPIRACY.

How did this happen?" Abie's uncle asked.
" I just saw him falling down the stairs." I replied.
" I saw everything. I will tell you what I have seen but am afraid you won't believe it." Mrs Magie cried crocodile tears before everyone.
" Tell us please." Abie said.
"All this happened because of her." She said pointing at me.
"What do you mean by her." Abie was curious to know everything in details.
I had no time for her lies. I made a call to our family doctor to come and examine my father-in-law.

***Mrs Magie***
We were in our room, me and my husband when this woman here come and called for him. He followed her up to here and this woman pushed him down the stairs. She had a five- litre Jerry can of oil with her. I saw her smearing it on the floor, maybe she wanted him to slip off and fall down and when he didn't, she pushed him." She said while crying as if she was talking the truth.
Hearing all that, Abie come closer to me.
" Hey! Stop acting as if you care. You have put my father in this condition and now you are pretending to call the doctor to cure him. But I don't understand something, why did you do this?" He said.
I felt hurt after seeing Abie also trapped in his mother's trap. He had believed everything she said.
I then realized that it was my own battle. I had to be strong and support myself. I had to fight that battle alone.
I went and cried from my room. It wasn't time to give up and I wasn't the kind of person who would give up so easily.
I gathered myself together and went to my father-in-law's room. He was there alone but still unconscious. I wanted to talk to him.

****Casie****
"Father-in-law, I know you can hear me. Please fight so hard against death for my sake. I need you alive. You promised you be the best grandpa to your granddaughter, how will you be one when you are like this.
You are the only one who knows the truth. Even I myself I don't know the truth. I don't know how you learned that there was oil on the floor. I am sure you know who poured it there.
Everyone is blaming me for what has happened to you but at least I know that you are with me in this because you know am not at fault. I haven't done anything to you but am heartbroken too because Abie has also believed that I have pushed you down the stairs.
Please father-in-law heal quickly because I need you to help me in fighting against whoever has done this to you.
But am also at fault, you are in this state because of me.
You have fell down after saving my life. 
But I don't understand one thing, who could have smeared oil on the floor and why would he do that. We don't have kids who would play with oil tins in the house, how did this happen? 
I know you are the only one with answers to my questions. How will I get my answers if you don't recover faster. I know you can do it. I will be waiting for you." I said and then left his room because I didn't want anyone to find me in there and create unnecessary noise for the patient.
