Caught Off Guard

Misery

🖤Dela Vega POV🖤

Why am I hearing talking and crying beside me. What is this on my face stifling me? What's going on? Where am I? I reached for what was on my face an pulled it off slowly opening my eyes and looking at what I pulled from my face that was stifling me. Why was I getting oxygen? I look around.

I was in a room with bright lights and I saw most of my family and a doctor, some nurses and police officers standing in the room.

"What's going on" I asked groggily

I need water

My mother bust in tears and rush to my side and throw her arms around me, Jade and Davia follow suit.

"Thank God, Jesus I thank you. My baby is awake only you God" my mother cried

Confused I looked at her

"What's going on?" I asked again

"Water" I added

Davia reach for a glass of water and gave to me. I took it from her grateful and drank it quickly giving back the glass to my sister I look around the room again for a particular face but she was not here

"Where is Aria?" I asked still looking around

Nobody answered an then it clicked I remembered, Aria, Robert my babies.

"Aria!"

I sat up swiftly, getting up from the bed my head spun but I didn't care I kept going. Heading to the door the police voice stopped me in my tracks

"Mr. Malcolm you are under arrest for the murder of your brother Robert Malcolm. You have the right to remain silent because anything u say can be use against you in the court of law if you..." A officer was saying

My mother burst in tears and Jade hugged her

"Remain which bloodclaat silent a so mi should a remain silent and watch di dutty heartless bowy rape mi pregnant baby mother and nuh do or seh nothing bout it!?"

"Use anything unu wa use against mi, mi really nuh give a bloodclaat fuck but until mi si mi fucking woman 100 a unu can't lock mi up, Delano call mi lawyer" I said to the police and to my brother who was talking to someone on his phone.

"Weh mi woman deh doctor?" I asked the doctor who was looking with what looks like fright in his eyes. He then look from me to the police and I watched as the police nod his head

"Let me take you to her" the doctor finally said

I followed behind him and so did the police officers and my brothers.

I followed the doctor down the hall before he reached a door and stop

The doctor open the door and walked in. I spotted Aria from over his shoulder laying on a bed. I rushed around him and ran to her. She was attached to several machines, some wires were attached to her stomach and a oxygen mask over her face.

I felt tears blinding me I reached for her hand and as I held it and kissed it the tears fell

"I'm sorry I let this happened to you, it's my fault I've should been there to protect you please forgive me Aria" I silently cried

I felt her squeezing my fingers, I looked up at her and her eyes were open but they look so weak like they would close back at anytime.

"Aria, baby how are you, I'm so sorry babe it's all my fault" I cried as I kissed her forehead

"It is a miracle that she is alive we still don't know what happened back there but as soon as you blocked out she started breathing lightly on her own" the doctor told me
