I wake up with a start,I just heard Edna scream or was it a dream? I hurriedly get of the bed and put some clothes on and run towards Edna's room. I am so worried. What had just happened? Edna had not woken up since we landed and her situation had progressed from bad to worse every moment she was unconscious. Has she woken up? I meet Mia at the door. It seems it wasn't a dream. She had heard the scream too. She nods at me and proceed to open the door. I follow closely behind. In the bed,I see Edna in Andrew's arms weeping. She keeps on saying she does not want to go back. Go back where? U walk toward them but Mia stops me.
"Give them time," She says. I am reluctant to leave but she takes my hand forcefully drive me out of the room.
"I need to be with her...." I protest in a low voice,I don't want to scare Edna. Mia gives me a glare and leaves me standing there. I know she is right. I need to give Edna time to calm down. Right now all I want to do is to be by her side and comfort her but I know she needs her brother now more than ever.
I feel so useless not being able to help her. It seems all the money I have is vanity. James my bodyguard had failed to come up with a connection between those names and Edna. I need to find a differ approach to know what happened in the past.
Whatever happened to her in the past must be terrible. A part of me wishes I had met her earlier. I feel like carrying her burdens,I feel like drying those tears and replacing them with laughter. I want to destroy whoever had a hand in making her life difficult in any way. I want to protect her in every way. For her to change her name,she really must have a dark past. Deep down i hope  she can trust me enough to share her past with me. Afterall I am hers now. I know its corny. We have only known each other for six months and have officially dated for around forty eight hours at most but I feel,I know she is the one. The one whom in know I love wholeheartedly. The one who understands me,the one who fills my empty life and make it meaningful. I may have everything; money,influence, looks, fame but I know for a fact that if loose her everything becomes vanity. I don't know when I really fell for her but I bless that day. As for now,I can only hope she gets Better and open up to me. I sit at the couch just outside the room...

After almost five hours of waiting,Andrew gets out and finally let's me in. The five hours felt like eternity and am relieved to be finally alone with her. She is lying on the bed .Her eyes are red and swollen from too much crying. Her hair is disheveled. She sees me and cringes deeper into the bed and pulls the blankets over her head. My heart sinks deep. She doesn't want to see me.
"Go away" she tells me in a meek trembling voice. My heart sinks further. Her voice is so frail and broken. I reach out and pull the blanket off her and join her in bed. Without a word,I hug her tightly and bury my head in her neck,her familiar scent relaxes me. I am finally close to her.
"I am going nowhere Edna,I am here to stay and I will support you in whatever you are going through. Please trust me" I am so afraid she won't open up.
