Watching Her
Chapter 8
Faith looked up and froze the minute she saw Rick standing right in front of her.
"What are you doing here?" asked Faith fearfully.
"I'm here to finish the job that I started," laughed Rick. Faith could see the evil in his eyes, and she knew that he meant what he said. So many thoughts were going through Faith's head at that moment. Will I ever see my kids again or Fred? What about Bosco? Will I know if he wakes up?
Rick then got his knife out of his pocket." I promise you, this will not hurt one bit," said Rick as he was about to stab Faith. Faith then heard the door opening. "Put your hands up where we can see them." said Sully who had just entered the room." Rick turned around and saw two police officers in front of him. He had to find a way to get out of here, but how? Rick then ran out of the room, Ty and Sully ran after him. Rick ran down the fire exit. Yes… ha-ha I lost them, those idiots," laughed Rick as he opened the door, and standing there were Ty and Sully.
"Put your hands behind your back." said Sully as he handcuffed Rick.
About an hour later,
Ty and Sully walked into Faith's room.
"Faith," said Ty softly. Faith looked up at Ty and Sully.
"Thank you for saving my life, but how did you know?" asked Faith as she sat up. Ty sat down next to Faith, while Sully stood behind him.
"Sully and I were coming to visit you, and that's when we saw that Rick was in your room, and we remembered the description that you gave us," said Ty softly.
"Well… thank you again. I don't know what I would have done if you guys didn't come in." said Faith quietly.
"Faith, I don't think you should think about that, he can't hurt you anymore" said Sully. Faith yawned.
"I think we should let you get some rest," said Ty as he got up from his chair.
"No, I'm fine. I don't need any rest." said Faith firmly" Have you seen Bosco today?" Ty and Sully glanced at each other not sure what to say to Faith.
"What?" asked Faith.
"He still hasn't woken up yet, and the doctors are starting to get worried about him" said Sully.
"Oh," said Faith.
"Well, we will see you later," said Ty as they left Faith's room.
***
Fred walked into Faith's room. She looks so peaceful, thought Fred to himself Maybe she can get on with her life now" Fred then went and sat on the chair while he waited for her to wake up.
"No, don't hurt…. Please Rick, no" screamed Faith.
"Faith.. Faith," said Fred as he stood up. "It is okay, he can't hurt you anymore.
"Fred is that really you," said Faith softly as she opened her eyes.
"Yes," said Fred as he held his wife tightly." I'll never let that man hurt you ever again."

The next day,
"When can I leave here?" asked Faith impatiently.
"Well… I think you can go home on Wednesday." said the doctor.
"I have to wait that long,"
"Mrs. Yokas, it would be best if you stay here for a couple of days, so we can check you out, and make sure that everything is okay"
"Can I at least see Bosco?" asked Faith softly.
"Well… I'm not sure that is a good idea."
"Please, I won't stay long, I promise." said Faith delicately. All Faith wanted to do was see with her own eyes that Bosco was okay, just maybe the guilt she was feeling inside would go away.
"Okay, for a few minutes that is all." said the doctor."
"Thanks," said Faith brightly.
***
Faith went into Bosco's room, and she couldn't believe how pale he looked. I did this to him, why did he have to go and try and find the stalker on his own. If he dies, I don't know what I would do. No, he'll make it. Faith then sat down next to him." Bosco, you have to wake up for me. I'm fine, he can't hurt me anymore." said Faith as she touched Bosco's face.
"I can't lose you, you are my best friend. I just don't know what I would do if something happens to you" she said as tears started dripping down her face.
"Faith…" said Bosco softly as he slowly opened his eyes.
