Cindy's POV
" Cindy's POV
" She is just too much hurt. I will talk to Mr. Blankfein." Patrick said.
" Don't. If you want to stay alive. Your wife will behead you." Chloe said and I nodded. He chuckled.
" Don't worry she will not know that." He said.
" Why do you always keep getting insulted by him willingly, man?! I hate you for that." Chloe asked him. He smiled.
" It's ok. I don't mind." He said.
" But we do mind." I said and Chloe nodded.
" Why do you have to talk to him?" Chloe asked.
" Because what Clara did wasn't right. She shouldn't react like that." He said.
" Yeah, right. But that doesn't mean you have to talk to him." Chloe said.
" I will just say sorry to him in behalf of Clara." He said.
" No need." I ignored it.
" But it's necessary, Cindy." He said.
" He always insults you, did he ever say sorry to you till now?" Chloe asked him.
" It's ok. I don't mind." He said.
" You will not." I said. " I mean why, Patrick? Why do you keep doing this? Why your own self-respect doesn't matter here?" I asked him frustratedly and he sighed. He stayed silent for awhile then looked at us.
" I was a little kid when I lost my parents. Though I was brought up by my aunt Josh's mother who never let me feel that my parents were no more but still it keeps hurting. When I see Clara and Steve going through the same situation though they have their father it keeps irritating me. I think everything happened for me. She lost her family for getting involved with me. I never wanted that. I never ever wanted that she loses her family for me. This is why I try to make things right. And he is Clara's father. There is nothing that I can do for her. Tolerating her father's rude words is nothing in front of that." He said and I sighed. I didn't know that Patrick has lost his parents as well.
" No no no no no. It didn't work. You explanation felt weird. Cause first of all Clara hasn't lost her family for you. It was not your fault at all. In fact she got everything from you. She is completed with you. Everyone has their own right to choose their life partner. Clara choose you. You are the one whom she always wanted. If her family can't cooperate with that then it's not at all your fault. Is it?" I asked him
" And which family are you talking about, Patrick? The one who tried to hand her over to a rapist?!! The one who never cared for her happiness?!! Clara even begged to her father for letting her marry you. You do know everything. Still acting weird. It's Mr. Blankfein who has to say sorry to you. If you try to go and talk to him I will just go and inform Clara. You know what will happen after that?!! Last time she made you sleep on the couch for 2 weeks, this time it will be for 1 month. Now feel free to go, Bro." Chloe said and I chuckled inwardly but kept on a serious expression on my face. He sighed deeply.
" It's not right." He said.
" What you are doing is not right as well." Chloe said.
" You are no more asking forgiveness to Mr. Blankfein. You are not even responsible for anything. He should be grateful to you for making her daughter a real life Queen here, he should thank you for keeping his daughter protected and loving her so dearly." I said to him.
" He is not in fault. I think Mrs. Blankfein has done something here." He said and I nodded.
" Still you are not going to say sorry to him. That's it." I said. He sighed deeply.
" You girls go play with Nova. You kids acts so grown up suddenly." He said
" Patrick!!!" Both Chloe and I said unison.
" Ok ok. Go take rest. I am not going anywhere. God!!!" He said and I chuckled. We came upstairs and Chloe went to her room to take rest. I went to check if Steve has slept already. I stepped into the room and found Steve laying on the bed on his back his left arm was over his eyes and right one was still bandaged it was on his stomach. I walked to him and pulled the duvet on him. He removed his arm from his eyes and looked at me smilingly.
" I knew you will come." He said.
" How did you know that?" I asked him.
" I don't know. I just knew it somehow. It kept ringing in my mind." He said. I chuckled. He kept looking at me. He raised his hand to touch my hair strand that was hanging on my face. He hesitatingly touched it and smiled like a kid. I sighed inwardly.
" Let's go to the balcony." He said.
" But it's already late. You should go to bed now." She said.
" Please, once." He said. I couldn't say no to him. I helped him to come to the balcony. He was recovering now. Doesn't need much help from me these days. I am very happy for that.
" You first." He said and I nodded opening the door. As soon as the door was opened flower petals showered both of us. I looked at him totally shocked. Has he remembered anything?!!
" What happened?! Haven't you liked the surprise?" He asked me. I hold on myself.
" Why suddenly this surprise?" I asked him.
" Errrr...umm..." He was hesitating to tell me.
" Come on. Tell me." I said.
" I ...umm... actually you did a lot for me. I needed to say thank you to you for everything." He said.
" Just for that?" I asked him.
" No. There is one more thing." He said.
" That is?" I asked him.
" Let's go have a seat." He said and I nodded.
We sat there side by side. He kept silent didn't say anything at first. We kept looking at the moon. Beauty of moonlit night is something very special to me. I smiled then turned to him.
" Can I know the reason now?" I asked him. He turned to me and sighed.
" I had a dream last night. It was very beautiful. But will you take me wrong if I tell that to you?" He asked me and I shook my head. " I didn't do anything. It just.... I don't even know how I had this kind of dream. Please, don't take me wrong." He said.
" Just say that." I said.
" Umm...I saw that you and me were walking on a beach at night. We had a very nice time together. You said something to me but I couldn't get it. It was like a maze." He said and I kept looking at him weirdly. Is he getting his memory back. I nodded.
" Are you angry?" He asked me.
" Why?!" I asked him.
" About that dream." He said.
" No. Not at all. Let's go visit the beach nearby when your arm gets better." I said. I looked at him and he was hesitating. " Anything else you want to tell me?" I asked him.
" Umm...I don't know how will you take me. But....umm..." He was saying.
" What is it?" I asked him and he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
" I love you." He said and my eyes widened. He did it!!!
