Enzo:

I waited outside, pacing wildly and trying my best to keep calm. The Sergeant and Mark were in Tabby’s room and so far, there hadn’t been any cries or screams. I still didn’t understand why I wasn’t allowed to be in the room with her while they questioned her.

The discharge papers were already signed. Once this was over, I was taking her home. I had already prepared her leave and after a few days, she would be cleared to work from home.

Nora was responding well to treatment too. She had woken up and the surgery had been successful. From the reports, she was talking normally, and even with everything that had happened, she still hadn’t lost her peppiness.

“Why the hell is this taking so long?”

It was getting late. They had been in there for almost what? Like an hour now? What questions was that madman even asking her? She was the victim.

A groan escaped my lips and I sat down on a chair. I had heard him shouting about Ryan’s lawyers. I hadn’t been privileged to see him, but I

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    85. Tabitha

    Tabitha:I hated sleeping in the hospital, hooked up to all the machines. I couldn’t even sleep a wink. My eyes were still wide open until the first rays of sunlight flooded into my window. My thoughts were pulled away by Enzo, reflexively squeezing my hands in my sleep. He had asked the driver to get him a change of clothes, and he had stayed by my side the entire time. I smiled and ran my fingers through his hair. It felt bad for putting him through so much. He was sitting on the chair, and his head was resting on the side of my bed at an awkward angle. He snored a little while he slept, and I had to clap my hands over my mouth to keep myself from laughing. Enzo Ross? Snoring? Who knew?However, it was a small moment of relief. The entire evening, the Sergeant had been patrolling in front of my room door. I knew because there was always a shadow that seemed to always pass right under my door. It was large, and the way it moved was rhythmic and stiff, like the pacing was pure musc

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    84. Tabitha

    Tabitha:The room seemed to be spinning. The beeping machines made my skin crawl. I had never felt so weak, so scared. My stomach hurt so much. Everything hurt. “Tabitha, are you okay?”It was Enzo. His figure looked blurry, and it didn’t clear up no matter how many times I blinked. He took my hand and the first thing I smelt was his cologne. I squeezed his hand tight. I had been sleeping. It was a dark, quiet, dreamless sleep. It was like I had been trapped in a dark cell, and now, he was the first thing that I could touch that wasn’t medical tubes, now that I was awake. I wanted to say something to him. Anything to him. But the words didn’t come out. It hurt to talk. “How is she doing?” Enoz asked, his visage becoming a little clearer. “Her heart rate is stable,” one of the medical staff said, flipping through something that looked like a chart. “We will still need to monitor her for infections and secondary bleeding. But for now, she is fine.”“And the Sergeant?” Enzo asked, hi

    Enzo:"Sir? Sir? Mr. Ross?" I was jolted back to reality by Office Sandy. My pen was in my hand, hovering over the paper on which I was writing my statement. I couldn't stop thinking about her. I couldn't stop thinking about Tabitha. The Sergeant who demanded to ask her questions was standing ten feet away from me. He was glaring. J could almost hear him snarling under his breath. I glared back unafraid. I was wishing he wanted a fight. I would have beaten him to a pulp to protect Tabitha. "Mr. Ross, we really need that statement." Officer Sandy interrupted me again, breaking my glare at the Sergeant. "Of course," I sighed and continued to write. My handwriting looked awful. I had changed from the neat cursive to something shaky and crooked. I almost couldn't believe that I was the one who was writing.In a few minutes, I was done and I handed the papers to Officer Sandy. She smiled, even though it didn't reach her eyes and placed it in a folder.It wasn't hard to tell that she

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    82. Tabitha

    Tabitha:Enzo stayed with me. The silence between us lingered long after the stitching was complete. My body ached like crazy. I was kept in a lying position and asked not to sit up. It hurt so much that I felt handicapped. The monitors around me were still beeping, and I hated it. I wanted to say something, to thank Enzo for being with me, to answer questions to help the investigation, but each time I opened my mouth, the words were choked by tears, and I fell silent again.Everything was a haze. I still couldn’t believe that I was spending the rest of my evening being hooked up to machines. Enzo pulled a chair and sat next to me. I was grateful that he wasn’t asking me anything. I couldn’t bring myself to talk. I held his hand and squeezed, and to remind me that he was here, he squeezed back.The doors slammed open, and my heart rate went up, making the monitor beep wildly. The officers stormed in, and Enzo glared at them.“What are you doing here?” he asked, “She is resting and i

    Enzo:I watched them drag Tabitha into the back of the car. I still couldn't believe everything that had happened today.“Sir, we're going to need you to also come along so that we can take a statement from the both of you, since the both of you are also victims in the crime,” the officer said, looking at me sternly.I know that this was obviously going to be a difficult case. I still didn't think that something like this could have happened on such a casual work morning.“Do you have a vehicle with you, Sir?” The officer asked, and I nodded, pointing to my vehicle, which was parked in the parking lot.“Good. We are out of police cars, so I would like you to quietly come with us in your car. Any attempts to drive away or resist will be taken as resisting arrest, and if charged in court, you should be convicted."I understood well enough and signaled my driver to get the car ready.Soon I got in, and I couldn't help but sigh deeply. I had a few cuts on my face and arms, but nothing tha
