'And they live happily ever after...so that was the end and now it's your bedtime' Theo closed the storybook and kissed loving to Ava head..whose head was laying on his chest
Ava yawn and cutely said 'daddy can you sleep here'
Theo smiled 'I love too but daddy has some work to do and you know if you need me you can click this button ok but I'm here till the time you sleep'
Ava nodded and said 'ok daddy goodnight'
Theo protectively hold her 'good night princess'
when Ava was in her deep sleep Theo slowly get out of the bed and put the quilt on her and kissed her cheeks...he checked the camera he put on her room.
He gets out and went directly to his office...he was in the middle of the work when his phone ring ..he looks at the time it was almost 11 in the night.
He picked the call 'hello this theo grey speaking'
The caller said 'sir this is from new york central jail...we wanted to inform you your wife has tried to commit suicide ...we have taken to her city hospital ....we just wanted to inform you that her brother is out of reach and you were her next of kin after Mark Blake so please come immediately to the hospital'
Theo dropped the phone with a that....he was not shocked he was numb....sarah...Sarah try to kill her?
His eyes were bulging out he was going insane why ...but why she did that...did something happen to her...or she finally gives it up?
He shakily stands...and try to find a way to get out...but he was so lost...he was breathing loudly...he grabs his hair...he try to calm his breathing...she is fine..she is fine...
"But she was, not that's why she tries to kill herself" he yelled
He run and grab his car key and wallet and run to his car....but then he saw Tom getting out of his can and he was looking confused 'Theo whats wrong you look like hell'
Theo closed his eyes 'i have to go'
Tom grab his arm 'brother calm down where you have to go?'
'Hospital just fucking leave me' theo shout
Tom replied 'but why...dad...something happens to dad' he said in a panic
Theo shakes his had in hurried motion 'no he is fine..it...its Sarah ..she tries to kill herself'
Tom paled at the news 'what'
Theo opens his car door 'look I have to go just check AVa ... I don't know when I will be back'
But Tom still not move and he said in a dead tone 'i don't think you should go'
Theo raised his eyebrow in anger 'and why the fuck not'
Tom sighs 'cause she is nobody to us....she was nothing to us when she was convicted for Tina murder case and I think its God justice..what our sister has gone through now that bitch is going through...now she will know karma was really a bitch'
Theo lost it and punch him that leave Tom in shocked 'fuck you...she is my wife...she is my daughter mother...you fuker...she did what she did and she is punished for that but I will not leave her like this .'
Theo did not wait for tom response and drive like a crazy person.

Mark
'That's what you found' Mark asked the man
The man nodes 'i know it's not enough but well enough to know how to cater those people who give a statement against your sisters'
Mark rubbed his jaw 'so this waitress will confess that's what you are saying?'
The man node 'Mr Blake I know my job and I know this waitress will confess because she is already in distress and need of help ...she was already feeling guilty what she did but she is also scared...she was still not telling the name of the person who gives her the money to give false statements in the court'
Mark closed his eyes 'Who it can be? who wants Sarah behind the bar?..and why this waitress is scared?'
The man replied 'My guess that person she is afraid of is the same who was really behind Tina death...maybe he or she wants Sarah to be blamed for the crime they did'
Mark gives him an understanding node 'and what about the tape.CCTV footage of that area when Simon and Tina took off and what was their last stopped. I'm sure we can find some footage of that'
The man replied 'about that... I asked some tech guy who is working in a government agency, after a long research he just found out, that night of 12 dec the CCTV footage was fabricated and that tape was given to Greys when they were doing there own investigation... I asked him to retrieve the original one...he told me to give him a few days'
Mark sighs in anger 'fuck...whats happening here'
The man stands 'don't worry about the tape I will find out them but I will suggest you go to new york and talk to that waitress maybe you can take her into confidence and then she tells you the truth and who was involved'
Mark shake hand with the man 'Thanks a lot. I can't tell you how much grateful I am'
The man shrugs 'im just doing my job'
When the man was gone Mark took out his family picture when they all live together and were happy ..he smiled at Sarah innocent face 'sister don't worry you will be soon out of this hell...you will be happy again' he said in an emotional tone
Then his phone ring
He picked the phone and listen who it was ...he just said hello..then the caller told him that his sister tries to kill herself...he dropped his phone 'Sarah....(he put his hand on his mouth) Sarah why'

Theo
He runs inside the hospital and starts asking people where his wife then he saw some police officer and saw they were standing outside the ICU ....he was breathless 'my...my wife. I have to see her'
But the officers stop him 'sorry sir..you cant go inside she is still a prisoner and right now you need the permission from the main office to meet her'
Theo lost it 'then why the hell I was called when I can't see her'
But the Theo saw doctor coming out of ICU room and he said in fear 'doctor my wife...sarha...what happen....is she ok...and why she did it?' Theo asked everything in one go
The doctor gives him understanding look 'Sir I will tell you everything please calm down and please come in my office we will talk there'
Theo looks towards the door where Sarah was there but he node absently and walked with the doctor
Doctor give him some water and said 'I can understand what you are feeling
Theo shouted 'the hell you can..just tell me is she ok..will she (he hesitate) will she live ?'
Doctor sighs 'Sir all I can say...the police brought her little late here..she already lost a lot of blood...we are trying our best but she is in a coma right now, all I can say we are waiting for her to respond in any form otherwise we can't say much'
Tom shakes his head; 'maybe you forget but you are still my brother. I will be there when you need me even you fucking say or not'
Theo shook his head ...try to calm his heartbeat..what then the door open and saw Mark was standing tall will a murderous look 'Are you happy now what you did to her.....you fucker..you sadistic bastard was not enough for you that she was for years a punching bag for you and your family, then you put her behind the bar for a crime she never did..you also never let her see her daughter and now because of you, she is in this state'
Theo maintains the eye contact with him but his inner self-was breaking into tiny pieces he has no idea till when he will control his emotions.
Tom come in front 'look we have nothing to do with your sister suicide...it was her own choice...maybe it was her guilt that let her did that..don't put on this'
Mark gives them a disgusted look 'fuck you...guilt...what fucking guilt..she is inncent...she always was...and in a matter of few days I will prove this, then we will talk about guilt.....and her suicide it own you guys....you know before her suicide ..she was begging to see Ava...she also talk to me to bring Ava to her....you guys break her so much...you used an innocent child... I promise ..you will pay for this'
He stormed out leaving both the brother stun and confused.

Mark
It was almost in the morning when he felt his phone ring.....he looks around and saw Theo and his brother Tom sitting quietly...he fucking doesn't want them closer to his sister...but since it was the important call he revised it 'yes'
The detective guy he hired replied 'it's me...wanted to tell you my pal has found somethin..i haven't seen yet but going there.,I suggest to talk to the waitress fast ....she was in the mood of hiding out..find her till you can..im sending you the address' he ends the call
Mark look at the phone in shock ...what the hell...he can't leave Sarah here alone especially with these bastards...then he got the idea ..he failed to Rome and morgan landline, Rome picked the phone he was clearly sleeping 'hello'
Mark sighs 'sorry dude to call you this early morning...but its important'
Rome's voice changed to alert one 'whats wrong Mark'
Mark replied 'its Sarah I need your help'
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mark reach its destination ...he looked at the area which was slum in nature..he checked the address to be sure
Then he found the trailer house an knock on the door..after a minute the door has opened a lady in her 30s holding a toddler.
Mark introduced himself 'im Mark Blake Sarahs brother and you must be Holly '
The waitress eyes were stunned.
(After a few minutes)
Holly was rocking the bo in his lap and was sobbing 'i didn't want to do that but I became greedy and I also don't have any options but after I give a false statement to your sister...my life turn upside down... I lost my home..my husband...everything. I just have my boy but he also becomes ill so much that he almost died...it was a wake-up call for me that God is punishing me for my sin...i was in so much guilt that I put an innocent behind the bar'
Mark keenly looking at her 'then you have a chance...I'm angry what you did but I'm giving you chance to rectify your mistake and confess your crime I promise your child will take care like my own child... I will fulfill his and your necessary needs..his schooling his other stuff my responsibility even I will give my protection to you guys so don't worry tell me the truth.'
Holly look down 'im scared but if my rocky(she looked her son) get all this I will do it then...(she sobbed) I was offered some money that if I give statement that search gives me some drug pills to put inside tina milk or juice I don't remember...then I will be punished for some months and my husband will get a good job and a good house.... I get everything as I was told but I was also given a warning that if I ever open my mouth he will kill my family'
Mark was stun 'who was it...tell me, Holly... I promise nothing will happen I will protect you guys'
Holly looked scared 'it was ...it was Perry Moles'
Mark lost all the color from his face ..'what'
She nodes 'he was the one actually who got me the drug pills ..Sarah really do tell me to give her some painkiller, but when I get inside the kitchen he was already ther...i knew him because he used to visit a lot...he took out some money and told me that its all mine if I give this drug to Sarah, not the one she is asking... I was little taken back and doubtful but I was a greedy bitch and I took it and did what he told me...but I swear to god I don't know what happens next. I don't even know that drug was for Sarah or tina.'
Mark grabbed his hair 'fuck...Perry moles...that fucker...oh god'
