Three days later, Sofia regained consciousness and was murmuring Shawn's name.
"Shawn," she muttered, her voice weak and her eyes fluttering open. She looked around, confused, and saw a stranger in a doctor's uniform beside her. He smiled faintly, relief written on his face.
"You are awake," he said, his voice soft and gentle.
Sofia turned to him, her eyes narrowing slightly as she tried to remember where she was. "Where am I?" she asked weakly, her voice laced with confusion.
The doctor's smile widened. "You are in the hospital," he said, and started to examine her body. Then he helped her sit upright on the bed, and Sofia felt a headache coming on. She noticed a white bandage wrapped around her head and her eyes widened in alarm.
"What happened?" she asked, her voice shaking slightly.
The doctor's expression turned serious. "You were knocked down by a car three days ago. Thank heavens you are awake. The driver hasn't been herself since the incident. She has been praying for you to wake up," he said, his voice filled with compassion. Sofia's eyes clouded over, and she looked down, trying to remember. "So, do you remember who you are?" the doctor asked, his voice gentle.
She nodded slowly. "Yes, my name is Sofia," she said, her voice firm.
The doctor smiled. "How old are you?" he asked.
Sofia thought for a moment. "I'm eighteen," she replied.
The doctor nodded. "What do you do?" he asked.
Sofia paused, thinking. "I'm a student of..." she started to say, but trailed off as a young elegant lady walked into the room, looking worried.
The lady's eyes widened as she saw Sofia sitting up. "Oh my gosh! You are awake," she exclaimed, rushing to Sofia's side.
Sofia stared at her, confused. The doctor smiled. "She is the lady that hit you with her car, and she is also my younger sister," he said.
The lady looked at Sofia, tears in her eyes. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for it to happen," she said sincerely.
Sofia smiled weakly at her. "It's okay. It's a good thing that I'm alive," she said.
The lady smiled back, relief written on her face. "I am happy," she said.
"Has anyone come to look for me?" she asked.
The doctor shook his head. "No, no one," he replied.
Sofia's face paled, and she looked down, her eyes welling up with tears. "Where are you, Shawn? Why haven't you found me?" she whispered to herself, and sighed.
The doctor's face turned concerned. "Are you okay? Do you want me to get you something?" he asked.
Sofia shook her head. "No, I'm fine. When can I be discharged?" she asked.
The doctor smiled. "Today, if possible," he said.
The lady looked at him, concerned. "Are you sure she is good to go, Sam?" she asked.
He nodded. "Yes, she is fine now. I will prescribe some drugs for her to take, and she will be fine," he said.
The lady nodded. "Okay," she said.
The doctor stood up. "Excuse me, let me see other patients," he said, and left.
The lady turned to Sofia, a warm smile on her face. "I'm so happy you're okay. You can call me Nina," she said.
Sofia smiled back at her. "Nice to meet you, Nina. I'm Sofia," she replied, and they smiled at each other, a connection forming between them.
Some hours later, Nina drove Sofia home and they parked in front of the gate.
"Is this where you stay?" Nina asked.
Sofia nodded. "Yes."
"Cool, you stay with your parents?" Nina asked.
Sofia replied, "Not really, but I am not staying alone."
Nina said, "Okay, then, take care of yourself and don't forget to call in case you need anything."
Sofia held the card in her hand. "Sure."
She came down and waved at Nina as she drove off. Sofia sighed and moved to knock on the gate, but it opened on its own. She went inside to see everywhere looking quiet, with no guards around, and she wondered where they could have gone to.
She got to the door and rang the bell, but there was no response. She rang the bell again, and no one came to answer her because the door was locked.
"Where is everyone? Did they disappear from the surface of the earth?" She wondered, and then sat down, hoping for someone to open the door.
After a moment of waiting, she decided to get herself busy and moved to the garden to water the flowers.
Some minutes later, a car drove into the compound. She hesitated to come out first, thinking it might be Sly, but when she heard a familiar voice, she ran out quickly to see Shawn. Their eyes met, and Shawn was surprised to see her.
"Shawn," She called happily and ran to hug him. Shawn didn't hesitate to hug her back.
"You are back," She said.
Shawn pulled away from her and caressed her face, also getting worried seeing the bandage on her head. "What happened to you? Where have you been?" he asked curiously.
She smiled. "I got involved in an accident while running away from Sly, but I am fine now."
He pulled her back into a warm hug. "I was worried."
"Me too." She said.
They pulled away from each other, and Shawn took her hand and went inside.
Days back, when Shawn was attacked by some gunmen, his guard, who was shot in the shoulder, managed to stand up and move to check Shawn at the backseat. He was shot in the tummy, and the guard panicked.
"Boss," he called, trying to wake him up. He moved to the other side to check on the driver, who was also shot in the shoulder but was unconscious.
He quickly picked up his phone and dialed an emergency number. Soon after, Shawn and the driver were rushed into the emergency room for urgent treatment, while the nurse also took the guard to attend to his wound.
An hour later, the doctor came out of the emergency room to meet the guard, whose wound was already treated and wearing an arm sling. The guard looked worried, his eyes filled with concern.
"Doctor, how is he?" he asked curiously.
The doctor smiled, relief written on his face. "The surgery was successful, luckily the bullet didn't pierce deep into his stomach, so he will be fine," he said.
The guard sighed in relief, his eyes closing momentarily. "What about the other guy?" he asked.
The doctor replied, "He is fine too, he is up now."
The guard nodded, a grateful smile on his face. "Thank you, doctor."
The doctor smiled back. "You're welcome. If you'll excuse me," he said and walked away.
Two days later, Shawn regained consciousness, and the doctor examined him, noticing he was perfectly fine. While Shawn was still unconscious, his men investigated who attacked them and confirmed it was Sly. They told Shawn everything and how Sly raged the house and took Sofia away. Shawn's face turned red with anger, and he urged the doctor to discharge him, which he did.
They found their way to Sly's mansion. Meanwhile, Sly was scolding his men for what happened, his face twisted in anger.
"We are sorry, boss, we were drugged," one of the men said, fear written on his face.
Sly's expression turned cold, and he pulled out a gun and shot the man on the head. The man fell down, dead, and the rest panicked.
"You got forty-eight hours to find them, or else you guys will pay for it with your heads," He threatened, his voice cold and menacing.
Just then, he heard the sound of multiple gunshots in the air. Sly came out, surprised to see Shawn with his men surrounding the whole place. Before Sly could bring out his gun, Shawn shot his hand, and Sly groaned in pain.
"Where is she?" Shawn asked coldly, pointing the gun at Sly. Sly's face twisted in pain and fear. "You got the nerve to send your trash to attack me? Do you forget who I am? You dare touch the lion's tail," Shawn said, his voice filled with anger.
Sly screamed in pain as Shawn shot his leg. "Stop!" Sly yelled.
Shawn's expression remained cold. "Now, where is she?"
Sly groaned in pain. "I don't know, she ran off, I don't know where she is." Shawn shot the same leg again, and Sly screamed in pain. "Ahhhhhh! I am telling the truth!"
Shawn ordered his men to check the whole building, and they did, but later came out empty-handed.
"Boss, there is no sign of her," one of his men said.
Shawn's face turned red with anger. "Where did you keep her?" he yelled.
Sly groaned in pain. "I told you already, she ran off, even I can't find her family, I am sure they took her."
Shawn grunt angrily. "This is just a warning," he said and shot the other leg, leaving Sly screaming in pain, and then left with his men.
Sly's men rushed to help him up to the hospital as Shawn drove away, his mind filled with worry about Sofia's whereabouts.
"Make sure you find them, I don't care how you do it, make sure she is brought back safely," Shawn said to his men, his voice firm.
"Yes, boss," his man replied.
When they got home, Shawn was surprised to see Sofia coming out of the garden, a smile on her face.
