A Mother's Will

Chapter 36

Two days later, Akira returned for her Pagphera ritual. She did the unthinkable; she made a chandelier fall on Jovana, and she was watched by her husband alone when she did it. Jovana was hurried to the hospital immediately; she was unconscious, but because Jaden managed to make the chandelier fall a bit further away from her, it did not fall on her. He threw a chair to block the chandelier from falling on her, but he still couldn't save her from getting hurt.

Later at the hospital, when the doctor saw her back, he was horrified at the burn scars she had just on her back, and he stitched the wound with 7 stitches and the wound on her forehead with 2 stitches. She was awake the whole time this happened, and the doctor was shocked that she did not scream even when she gained consciousness during the stitching process.

When the doctor went out, he was asked by the family members: What happened? Is she fine? and the bombardment of questions on the poor-looking PhD-holder doctor and the heir of the hospital, Dr. Kavin.

He said she is alright; she needs rest. Be glad she did not lose much blood; she has a rare type usually seen in twins. Also, she is very strong; those burns suddenly look like they have been made to recover with the effort of years; they are very deep and must have affected her badly. If she sustains those, she will sustain them too. Mere stiches in front of those burns' scars.

The family was filled with guilt because those burns were her birthday gift. Ayaan asked when we could take her back; if you want now, I would suggest tomorrow morning. Riyaan said then we would discharge tomorrow morning. Not everyone was accompanied to the hospital, Ayaan. Riyaan and Mihir, along with Kiara, came. Uncle Param and Suraj came in later to see her.
