-Later On

I woke up and John was on my side, he was busy reading a book. He didn't notice that I'm already awake. So I called out to him.

"John" I slightly move that made him looked at me

"How are you feeling, love?" he asked me while he takes my hand, brushing his fingers on mine.

"I'm feeling better" I told him as I sat up

"What did you do to him, John?" I was referring to that guy earlier

"He was placed where he should be" he said, as he looked at me with those cold blue eyes

"Thank you- although I'm not fully convinced on your way... I understand that you're doing this for the better" I told him and he just nod

"You see, Amanda. This guy could harm more if I didn't acted right away... He should be dealt immediately" John explained as he closed the book he was reading

"Now- Amanda. I wanted to give you this" he said while pulling out a knife on his pocket

I looked at him confusedly

"Keep this with you in all times. I just wanted you to be careful, It's not always- I'm here to protect you" he said as he looked away, there's a hint of pain on his eyes

"It's really sharp and painful" he said as he gave it to me.

"This one was a bit handy if you know how to use this weapon" he said and took out a pistol on the drawer.

"I'm well aware that you had already know how to protect yourself" he stop for a moment

"I know what you did back there" he stared at me and it made me feel anxious

Is he being serious? No- It can't be, I swear someone didn't know about this!

"You are living with your father the couple of years back then. He was abusive and always came home-drunk" he said as he hold my hand

"That day you had already enough- you accidentally shoot him... I understand that- you're just protecting yourself..." John said as he looked at me

"You had run away, scared and I was there providing you a shelter- do you remember me?" he looked away and it somewhat hit me

It was him, John Kramer... the guy back then- he looked different right now that's why I didn't realize that it was him

I looked away as I felt myself breaking down.

"Why didn't you tell me it was you?!" I looked at him as my voice cracked

"I'm scared that you will run away from me- and you did... what if you do that again?" he said as I felt guilty for running away

"I have my reasons, John- I have no choice, I didn't want you to get involved with my crime" I hesitate to go further

John sighed, his eyes captured mine.

"Did Jill knew about me? and why didn't I saw him back then?" I asked him

"No- I have keep you away from her, I made you stay in a different place" he said as he looked at me warmly

It made me scared, to do that mistake again... I'm scared that I might hurt John

"What if I hurt you again, John?" I whispered

"Then I'll be glad to live that pain and be with you" he whispered as he kissed my forehead
