Chapter 286

Marvin

“Marvin, wake up.”

“Marvin, can you hear me?”

With pain in my head, I slowly opened my eyes

I focused on the sound of my mom’s voice, trying to fight my way to my blurry vision.

The first thing you usually heard in movies were common words such as,where am Iorwho am I, but I was not confused. I was aware of my surroundings, and only one thing went through my mind.

I am alive….I survived.

“Marvin, it’s time to wake up.’

“Mom, don’t force him.”

“Is uncle dead?”

“I’m not dead,” I yawned, stretching out my arms. I was supposed to be dead, but I wasn’t. The first thing I felt was my mom’s soft lips on top of my forehead. “I thought we’d lost you as well.” She cried.

Confused, I turned my head to look at my sister, Karina, and my nephew, Cisco. “What does she mean? Where is Tiago-”

“Tiago is fine.” Karina smiled through her tears. “Come on, mom-I think it’s time for us to step out for a

second.”

I looked at the nurse in front of me and shook my head in disapproval. “We don’t need to do any tests. I’m fine!” I told her, ripping several electrodes from my body. “No, sir-you can’t do that!” The middle-aged woman spoke while the remaining nurses followed her.

My mom, Karina, and Cisco got rushed out of the room while I let out an exhausted breath and decided to work along after feeling a burning sensation in my abdomen. I wasn’t fully recovered yet. The sooner 1 worked along, the sooner I would receive some answers. Where was Tiago, and what had exactly happened?

After some hours had passed, I was finally able to see my family-but the looks on everyone’s faces and the fact that Tiago was not present was not a good sign. Full of curiosity, I looked at my mom, dad, Karina, and Victor.

I didn’t know what Victor was doing here, especially after his heartless comment-but I guess the gesture was nice. “So what’s up with the serious faces, and where are Tiago and Anya?” I chuckled, fearing for the

worst.

The pale faces after mentioning Anya’s name were terrifying. “Marvin….I’m so sorry.” My mom spoke. lowering her head. “But Anya…” She continued.

I took a breath. “She didn’t make it….Anya didn’t make it.” I concluded, balling my fist. I hadn’t even noticed how angry I was until Karina placed her hand on my shoulder to calm me down. Mario Castillo
