One Battle Is Won
SavedArtemis POV
I wake up to white room where I'm surrounded by machines. I hear the heart monitor beeping.
I must have passed out last night.
I look around and to my right side I found Soo-Hyuk asleep also he's holding my hand.
I like it when he's holding my hand.
He stirs a little bit but doesn't wake.
The door to my hospital room opens I look and it's Kai.
" Thanks goodness I honestly I thought you'd be asleep still ." He said smiling
He looks exhausted.
" Kai Oppa ." I said weakly
" Yes ." He said
" What happened I feel like I've been in hit by a train ." I said
Then Soo-Hyuk wakes up.
" You woke up ." He said smiling tiredly
" Have you've been here all night ?." I ask
" He never left your side ." Kai said
I look at him and my heart speeds up a bit
" Oh ." I said
" But there's something you should know Arte ." Kai said as his expression turned seriously
" What is it ?." I ask
" Surgery went well but during the surgery we had shocked your heart back to life ." Kai said
" Oh god ." I said as my blood froze in fear
" You cannot tell Apollo about this ever ! Do you hear me Kai ." I said
" Yes ." He said
" And same goes for you ." I said as I looked Soo-Hyuk
He nods in agreement.
Wait !.
" Wait a minute ." I said
They looked at me.
" If you're here Kai and you're here Soo-Hyuk, then who in the hell is watching MY SON !!!." I shouted at the last part as I sat up
I winced in at the pain.
" Are you're an idiot ? You have stitches ! Are you trying open them ?." Kai said as he rush to my side
Soo-Hyuk helps me laid back down in the hospital bed which made uncomfortable. That's why I hated hospitals the beds were so uncomfortable.
" Artemis ." Soo-Hyuk said
I nod
" Apollo is with Kris ." He said
Breath in relief.
" Artemis, you came in with four broken ribs, cracked skull, broken wrist and also a punctured lung along with your left cheek cut opened ." Kai explained
I nod in acknowledged,
" That ?." I ask
" In jail ." Soo-Hyuk said
Thank the heavens.
" I want to speak the detective now ." I said
Kai nods and leaves to call the detective to my room.
" Soo-Hyuk, can you stay with me ?." I ask softly
" Always ." He said
Few minutes later and the detective comes in through the my door.
" Hi, I'm detective Baek ." He said as he bowed
" I'm Artemis Santos I want to report child abuse and a murder ." I said
Soo-Hyuk looks at me in shock because one there's was no murder committed and two that's were he's wrong.
" May I ask against who ?." He ask
" The man that was brought into custody last night I'm his victim ." I said
" Ok, if I may be so bold to ask. Who is he ?." He ask
" My father ." I said malice
" Ah, as for murder part, when did it happened ?." He ask
" It happened 10 years ago I'm an eye witness to the murder and my father committed the murder of my mother ." I said
Soo-Hyuk gasped at what I've just told the detective.
" Do you mind telling why did you wait so long to report it ." He said
" He threaten to kill me ." I said
" I see, ok Artemis tell me everything you remember from that night ." He said as took a pen and notepad
" He killed my mother right in front of me when I was seven. One night she read me a story like every other night. Then as we were in the middle of the story I heard deafly sound ." I said but I closed my eyes as begin to remember
Soo-Hyuk squeezes my hands to let me know that's he's here for me.
" Take our time ." Mr. Baek said
" I look at my mother in horror and her face was blown off with shotgun. I was covered in her own blood. I ran from my bedroom, to the secret room that my father didn't know about only me and my mother knew about it ." I said shakily
" Remember you can take your time with this ." Mr. Baek said
" I hid there until he sober up when I came out of hiding he told me to clean up the mess and bury the body. I never told anyone because he threaten to kill and bury me next to her if I told anyone ." I said weakly
" That's everything I need except where's the body ." He said
" He made me bury her in the backyard of the house ." I said
" Ok, thank you and we let know about trial ." He said as he took his leave
I nod and he left me with Soo-Hyuk.
" You must tired now, why don't you take nap for a bit ." He said
" That sounds like a good idea ." I said smiling at him
He gets up and kisses me on my forehead then leaves my room I closed my eyes.
