Chapter 12 - Moved in together again

"What if what you thought was a dream turns out to be a nightmare? And you just have to let go?

Emma was confused when she woke up and didn't see Draken around yet he promised he'd never leave her side.

"Uhmm....Mr. Ken just went to complete and fill in the hospital forms, he'll be back in no time"

"Please...excuse me" Erick went out to immediately call his boss and inform him that his wife had woken up.

Draken was already on his way back to the hospital....with something he'd bought for her.

"I'll take it from here Erick, just go back and handle things at home, check on my dad for me," Draken ordered as soon as he arrived.

"Yes boss"

~~~

"Wife, you're awake" Draken's mood brightened as soon as he entered and saw Emma.

"Mr Ken, I really want to go home, I don't want to stay here" Emma already fed up of the hospital, complained, trying to get out of if the hospital bed.

"But you're still not fine, don't move around too much" Draken rushed to her side and tucked her back in the bed.

"I'm supposed to be taking care of you, not the other way around...or else, how will the agreement end" Emma poured and it made her look cute.

"So ..you really want to get rid of me?" Draken joking asked, lifting her face to meet with his.

"Wasn't that the deal we had?" She asked, clueless of what he was trying to hint at.

When will you see how much I love you, and can't leave you.

"Don't think about it?" Draken wondered how he could break through and get her to love him.

"Don't worry Ken, as long as long as I can, I'll do everything I can to help you, I won't leave you either"

Emma smiled.. giving him a ray of hope.

"I got this for you" Draken said, sitting by the stool close to the bed.

It was a new bracelet he'd got for her.

"You already got me a ring, there's no need for that," Emma replied but he insisted.

"I want to.... listen Emma, never take it off .."

"It's beautiful,,,thank you Ken" Emma took a closer look at it and found herself almost crying.

No one had ever given her a gift this beautiful aside from her mother. Everyone else treated her like a good for nothing.

She got too emotional and ended up hugging Draken.

"Thank you so much Ken, you've really brought me happiness"

If I could give you the whole world, I could Emma, but how will you take it when you find out my real identity and who I really am.

The doctor came in to check on her and gave her some medicines that made her sleep.

Only then, did Draken spare some time to have his injuries checked to.

"Mr Hunt, you can rest assured, Mrs Hunt will be fine and discharged by tomorrow morning,,, we've also taken precaution, no unauthorized persons can come in or go out" Draken's specialist doctor reported to him.

"Mhmm" he simply replied.

The whole night, he didn't sleep, he kept up watching over Emma.

She was his priority, she always was.

~~~~

The following morning, Emma got discharged from the hospital.

Her first thought was to go back to her old house, even if she could just see it from a distance.

But before that..

"Emma!!" Mrs Walter stopped her in her tracks.

Draken wanted to see if this woman would do exactly what he told her to do. He stood right behind Emma.

"Mrs Walter??" Emma was surprised.

"Emma please, forgive me" she pleaded on her knees.

"Mrs Walter, what are you doing? Please get up!" Emma was so naive.

Even after all she did to her, she was still kind to her.

"Emma no, let me do this, I realized I was wrong....I want to ask for your forgiveness...please...you know...you can even have this house back it belongs to you now" Mrs Water said, her voice hinting worry.

If Emma wasn't convinced, Draken would make her life miserable.

She handed her the keys and property papers the were now in her name..

All thanks to Draken

"Emma, what do you think? Should we forgive her?" Draken asked...

If she said no...he wouldn't hesitate to get rid of her, but if she said yes, he'd be more considerate.

Emma still didn't understand what was going on, Mrs Walter was nice to her, apologized and even, gave her the house?

What was with the sudden change?

"I guess....we can let her off this time Ken...it feels like she really means it" Emma replied turning to face Draken.

"Ok wife, whatever you say, Mrs Walter, you can go now, just don't show up in front of us again" Draken's voice tone changed, and the lady left right away.

" Yay!!! I got my home back Ken!!!" She was happy.

Anything that made her smile made Draken happy too.

Excited, she opened it only to find it completely empty,

"Where are my things?" Emma asked.

"Well, since this is now your house,, Mrs.Ken,, it's time you let go of this place," Draken replied.

"But where shall we leave?"

"A new home for the both of us... a fresh start. This house should remain as a beautiful dream you once had so that you can move on" Draken replied, choosing all his words carefully.

"You are right. It's time I let go" Emma said before she took one last look around the house.

Goodbye

Draken took her to their new home, his home.

"Ken...did you go rob a bank, how did you get this place?" Emma asked him.

"From a friend,,the one you saw at the hospital, I explained to him that I was married now, and I needed a place to stay with my wife" he replied.

Clearly lying!

"He gave it to me like a gift" he added.

"Then we should invite him over, and thank him properly"

With her naivity, Emma believed him, she was just so trusting of people.

He'd already moved her things there and organised the house for her... They'd finally moved in together again.
