The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 165

The entire world knows that Silas is in hospital and they expect that I have answers to their questions, but the truth is, I'm just as clueless as they are. I just happen to be at a nearer distance. As if this can make the situation any better. My phone hasn't stopped ringing and I'm incredibly overwhelmed. I only answer calls from our immediate family and friends.

I'm in the waiting room, hoping anybody would tell me anything. I want somebody to assure me that he's okay. I want to take him home and keep him away from the field for a couple of months- as if I have to power to do that.

"Rosie." I look up when I hear somebody calling my name. I look up and find Scarlett, Tristan's wife and Tristan is with her. "Are you okay?" Her question takes me by surprise, because everybody is asking about Silas; however, nobody has checked on me. I haven't even checked on myself.

"I... I don't know," I tell her, still surprised by her question. Or maybe I'm overwhelmed. I honestly don't know how I'm feeling right now, and I don't care about that either.

"Come here," she whispers and pulls me into a gentle hug. I comply, feeling the need for some support.

If Silas is seriously hurt, I don't know what I would do without him. He has been there with me during every big major event in my life. He is my number one supporter and the person I run to when everything turns black.

"I saw it all happen, you know," I tell her in a quiet voice. "I had a pair of binoculars in my hands and I was watching the game because it got really intense. I saw the way he got tackled and they piled on him to get that fucking ball."

"He's going to be okay." She's only saying this to calm me down and ease my aching heart, but nobody is sure of that. Nobody can guarantee that he's going to be okay.
