I couldn't sleep throughout the time we traveled. I was very restless.   When we landed at London Heathrow airport it was two in the morning. We finished all the formalities and by the time we came out, it was two-thirty in the morning. I desperately wanted to go to the hospital but I knew I won’t be allowed to enter and Don had gone home as he had an urgency at home. I had called him before boarding the flight from Milan. I didn't want to bother him more as he has done enough for me. I checked my cell phone and it was working fine, as Mathias went to the washroom, I called up the hospital’s number. After giving Tio’s ward number, which Don had sent me on Mathias’s phone, I came to know that Tio was doing better as they had fixed the problem with his spine, as the bone near it was dislocated. But now he was out of danger. But would have to be kept in a hospital for a few days for observation. I was surprised that Don had not briefed me about the surgery. he must have thought I would be worried I thought helplessly. I expelled my breath slowly and leaned against the wall nearby. My legs felt too weak to support my weight, but I managed to thank the nurse on the phone shakily. “Are you sure he is fine?” I asked again just to be sure. My heart was a mess.“Yes, Mrs. Garcia he is fine don’t worry. It has been entered into our system that you are out of the station?” The nurse inquired. “I just landed and I am at the airport. I was hoping I could see him but I don’t know about the visiting hours and it will take me another four hours to drive there.” I said flatly. “Oh that’s wonderful, Tio would be up by then and it would be a big surprise for him. Okay, Mrs. Garcia has a safe journey your son is fine and will recover soon, don’t worry.” She said before hanging up.I turned and saw Mathias looking at me. “ What is it? You look like death….How is your son?” “He is fine Mathias !” I looked at him with eyes burning with tears. “ He is going to get well soon. I am crying because I am happy. Thank you Mathias for everything or I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for you.” And my tears ran down my cheeks continuously. Mathias handed tissues from his purse and I thanked him again before wiping my tears away.“Mathias, can we sit for some time before we head out?” I said my voice still unsteady. “Oh yes, we can for another half an hour. The restaurant nearby should be good.” He pointed it out. “And I must admit that I feel quite hungry,” Mathias added. “Mathias, I am so sorry ! you must be hungry, you have not eaten anything while you were making arrangements for the journey,” I exclaimed with regret. “Please let's go, you should eat something.” He simply smiled and said. “ Carmen you think too much, I could have eaten on the plane but then I was so worried about your situation that I did not feel like eating anything. Now that everything is fine with Tio. I can eat with ease.” He smiled and pulled me towards the restaurant. And we sat down on the seat provided by the attendant. Now I was free to tell Marc the truth about Tio and with that decision made another great burden had lifted from my shoulders. Whatever the consequences, I felt I was following the right path at last. As I don't want to hurt anyone. I thought about what will be Marc’s reaction to the news.Although there was a certain irony in the fact that previously he had hated me for apparently giving birth to another man's child and now he would hate me because the child had been his. I shrugged my shoulders mentally determining not to accept all the blame for the situation myself. Marc had been very arrogant and egoistic he never for once trusted me. And he had immediately jumped to his conclusions and if I had cleared the conclusion at that time then he would have taken Tio away from me and I would not be able to survive without my child. But now it's time to face the music. And I had to prepare myself for what was coming as it is not going to be easy. I accepted the second Cup of tea thoughtfully pleased that the food with the plate of salads, which was given by Mathias to me was very refreshing. As even I was feeling very hungry. but still felt like puking at the thought of food and my stomach I knew would reject anything other than liquid.“That feels better”. Mathias leaned back and sighed with satisfaction after finishing his food. “Do you mind if I smoke Carmen? “ “What? Oh yes Mathias, I was in my world and did not hear what you were saying. I hesitated a moment and then said, “ I don't really know how to begin you're not going to like this, I'm afraid,” I added after a moment of playing with the phone that I had in my hand and began to tremble nervously. “Go ahead and tell me anyway Carmen.” He said with a puzzled expression on his handsome features. "A good talk with someone is healthy and can be a stress reliever."Yes I know he was right and until I tell him everything I won't be able to sit peacefully. Taking a deep breath, I said without stopping. “Mathias Tio is Marc’s son, not Blade Taylor's or any other men, whatsoever, Marc had imagined for that matter.”I saw Mathias’s face darken with surprise.“ I don't understand how can this be?"
