Chapter 32: An enemy of yours?
After Demar showered, he got dressed and head to the hospital just as the time Dr Joseph gave him to come back to the hospital.
When he arrived, he went straight to the room Zora was in.
As he saw Zora was still laying in the same place he left her, a disappointed expression was present on his face.
He walk towards her, held her hand and said with a weak smile, "I can see that you are still not awake."
He sigh then took a seat beside her bed and lean back in the chair.
Five minutes after, the door was open and welcoming Dr Joseph.
"I see you came back," Dr Joseph said as he entered.
Demar nodded his head, then asks, "Do you know when she will be awake?"
When Dr Joseph heard Demar's question, he stop what he was doing and face Demar.
"Within two days, she would have died if the toxic drugs hadn't been removed. I have removed the toxic drugs from her system, so it is all up to her when will she be awake."
"And the baby?" Demar asks.
"And the baby? Well, we will just have to inject the nutrients into her body for the baby to be able to survive."
Hearing what Dr Joseph said, Demar, shake his head then look at Zora as he rubs his fingers on her hand.
Seeing how much Demar cared for Zora, Dr Joseph felt like it was the right time to ask why Demar cares so much about Zora.
"Can I ask you something personal?" Dr Joseph asks as he rests on the door.
Demar didn't turn around to look at him but answered, "And what's that?"
"Why do you care so much about this girl?"
When Demar heard Dr Joseph's question, he pause before he answered, then began to explain.
"It might sound crazy, but my heart says it's the first time I am seeing her, but my brain says I know her from I am young..."
"From the night I slept with her, I have been having dreams about her when she was young. Not one-night pass and I don't see her in my dreams."
"I want to believe I know her from I was young, but there is no proof of that I do. For one, I didn't even know her name and two, the man that I keep seeing different images of every time I am close to him isn't even her father, so it can't mean I know her."
"But even if I don't know her, I want to be close to her... it's comforting."
Listening to what Demar had to say helped Dr Joseph to understand fully why he cares so much for Zora and it was enough for him to want to help Zora get well soon.
"If that's the case, I will leave the room to you two," Dr Joseph said as he open the door then left.
The room was filled with silence as Zora was unconscious and Demar hoping quietly for her to wake soon.
It was a scary time for him as now he wasn't sure if Zora could fight on her own to wake soon or she will be in a long coma.
He doesn't want her to be in a coma longer than a week or two days, but he's willing to wait until she's awake.
***
After what had happened at Zora's wedding, not many people had forgotten about it, especially on Rebecca's side of life.
Rebecca had lost half of her followers and had been receiving hate messages from over 500 people.
She was furious about the matter and as daddy little girl she went to Mr Brooks and asks him to handle it for her that when she went back to college no student dared to speak shit about her and if anyone was caught doing so they will have to face a hard pain as their pockets would burn.
But while Rebecca was having it easy on her side, it wasn't the same for Josh.
Josh's reason for betraying Zora was because he wanted to protect his family.
That day Zora came home and saw her father and Josh speaking then Josh handle the situation by paying off her father was all an act.
Rebecca was the one who intentionally call Zora's name so Josh would hear it, then told Mr Brooks about it which then led Mr Brooks to Josh.
Mr Brooks had threatened Josh that he would kill his entire family if he didn't do as he say and since Josh was already skilled with weapons and drugs because he was a delinquent it was easy for him to carry out his task as a mafia for Mr Brooks.
Josh didn't always like Zora he pities her for he believes if he hadn't met her he would be fine but eventually he grew closer to her and started to develop feelings for her which Zora doesn't seem to accept.
But what will come of him when he realized he really can't have Zora as his?
***
Back to Demar's Mansion. . .
After spending the whole day with Zora at the hospital, Demar finally decided to head home.
When he arrived, he headed straight to the underground basement and called Mr Benjamin and Demarco down there, along with him.
He waited five minutes before both Demarco and Mr Benjamin arrived.
As they arrived, Demar told them to enter, take a seat, and close the door behind them.
As they all were seated, Demar ask, "I guess it's safe to speak about what's on our mind right now?"
Both Demarco and Mr Benjamin look at each other before Mr Benjamin face Demar and asks, "I guess you both have been thinking about why I came back after not seeing me for over 5 years, am I right?"
"Yes."
*Sigh*
"I came back because your mother told me about your situation with Mr Brooks."
Both Demar and Demarco were shocked at the fact Mr Benjamin sounds like he knew Mr Brooks.
"Wait, do you know who Mr Brooks is?" Demar asks as he raises his left eyebrow at Mr Benjamin.
"Wouldn't say I know him, but more like an enemy of mine."
"An enemy of yours?" Demar and Demarco both said in shock.
Both men were shocked to hear that Mr Benjamin had known Mr Brooks and not just know who he was but also was an enemy of Mr Brooks and Mr Brooks was an enemy of his.
"So are you saying he knows I am related to you?" Demar asks as he was wondering if Mr Brooks know who he was and could be the reason he's coming after him.
"Well no. Since you haven't made your symbol, your team is still in the safe, but not for long. Anyone that Mr Brooks sees as a competition, he quickly wipes them out without a care in the world. You are going to need to make links with other mafias for the protection of your team."
