Ch. 4The Days Later


At Mrs. Matida's house, the surrounding landscape was devastated, the fire burned almost the entire house, it was the largest fire in the area. But fortunately, the fire was extinguished in time, it only spread through a few neighboring houses, where there were no casualties, only a part of their property was scorched.
As for Lady Matida, she was promptly rescued by firefighters, who took her to the hospital for treatment in a state of severe burns on one side of her leg. The doctors at the hospital did their best to save her and Matida was out of danger, the wound only needed time to heal and it would recover quickly.
By the evening of the same day, after being treated and resuscitated by doctors, Matida woke up, at that moment she asked someone to find Dina and Elise to help. Mr. Arthur, a friend of Matida, after hearing that she had a terrible incident, he quickly ran to the hospital to visit her.
As soon as he entered the hospital room, he met her worried eyes, Matida was calling Winston continuously, he had never been without answering her phone for so long, making Matida feel impatient. She said:
"Arthur, I'm worried about Winston, he's never been off phone for so long."
Mr. Arthur patted Matida's shoulder to reassure Matida:
"Don't worry too much, he'll be here sooner rather than later."
Suddenly Matida's phone rang, she immediately picked it up, the other end of the line said something that made her face look very panicked, she screamed and passed out by the bed. Mr. Arthur caught Matida and hugged, he picked up the phone and heard that his friend Winston had died at the bar where Winston had gone yesterday, drinking with a friend who had made an appointment with Winston.
Arthur quickly drove to the crime scene, he met Robert, an old friend when he was still at the police station. Robert said that Winston was drunk and poisoned by someone, more specifically, the poison only took effect in the body after two hours. Arthur sadly said:
"Winston has many friends, both good and bad, and I've warned him to be careful around them, but Winston probably doesn't mind."
Robert sighed and continued:
“We are investigating Arlo, who invited Winston here. He acted discreetly and quickly left others unsuspecting. The police are hunting and surrounding him, Arlo will be caught soon.”
Arthur looked around and replied:
“Rely on you, Robert. I have to go first, see you later."
He gave Robert a quick hello, he walked quickly to his parking area and ran to the hospital to take care of Matida.
After she was given a sedative by a nurse, when Matida shocked to witness two traumatic events happening at the same time. Matida felt calmer, she lay in bed sobbing at the thought of her daughter and husband. Mr. Arthur approached to comfort her and said:
"I'll try to find your daughter and track down who killed your husband."
Matida cried louder, she hugged Arthur, replied:
"Thank you, Arthur."
At the same time, in the Lawrence mansion, the atmosphere in the mansion was quite sad when their family members had just passed away. Since the funeral of his parents, Brian still has a sad mood in chest, today he does not go out to play as usual, the boy lies on the bed bored looking through the window outside, crying silently because he missed mother.
For the first time in Brian's room, there were no more objects, toys lying around, everything was arranged neatly, carefully because he was not in a happy mood to touch them. Brian simply pulled out the pictures his mother had taken, quietly holding them in arms, perhaps to him now they were priceless objects that he could look at and think that his mother was beside him.
Matthew is also bored, but it seems more insensitive to emotions, because Matthew is a naughty and stubborn child, more adaptable to situations. Moreover, Matthew is aware that now he can't do anything even if he is sad, his parents can't come back to life and hug him so Matthew is more optimistic than Brian, he thinks his parents have gone to heaven , they are starting their new journey through what Grandpa Wibul told.
So a few days later, Matthew was back to normal, he didn't want to be confined in the mansion, so he made a plan to entice Brian to his uncle Jack's house, a friend of his father's but they rarely see each other. It was Uncle Jack, a man who lived in the woods, he had a house with quite strange things, once Matthew was brought there by his father by accident because he wanted to get something from Jack's hand.
He didn't forget to bring his brother is Brian, because Matthew saw Brian was so bored with everything, according to him one way to dispel the boredom was to do something more fun. Brian heard Matthew's tricks, the boy immediately followed brother to escape from the mansion.
So the next morning, taking advantage of Mr. Wibul's time out of the house, Matthew and Brian quickly sneaked out the back, took out their bicycles that were hidden, the two children smiled at each other excitedly when successfully pulled the car out.
And suddenly, Matthew and Brian see their elder sister Hazel inviting a bunch of friends into their house. Matthew silently said:
"I thought Hazel could only study, but unexpectedly she could take advantage of it same us."
Brian ignored what Mathew just said, he waited for the other people to pass, then took bike and ran outside. Angry Matthew said:
"Hey, wait."
Brian rode bike after Matthew as brother led the way to Jack's place. It was not a short distance, they had to cycle continuously through the woods. Finally arrived after thirty minutes, it was a small house deep inside the forest, in front of the house there was a hammer, and big trees, next to it were fences to dry the fur of animals just shaved. Brian was a little scared, he looked at Matthew and asked:
“Matthew, where is this place?”
Matthew chuckled in heart, he put hand to mouth to signal silence looked mysterious, he led Brian slowly into the house. Matthew knew the door wouldn't be locked, because it wasn't when he and ông Aidan came here last time either. His father knocked on the door three times and spontaneously entered.
But Matthew did not do as he did, the boy wanted to give Jack a surprise, so he did not knock on the door, but slowly entered. So when Matthew had just stepped in, one of Jack's arrows passed through him, that made Matthew is scared, stand still at that place. Jack looked at the two children uncomfortably and said:
"What did you come here for, to make fun of me?"
Matthew tried to stay calm, he replied:
“No, I just wanted to come and visit.”
Jack glanced at Matthew, questioningly:
“Is that all?”
The boy nodded while Brian ducked to look at Jack behind his brother. Jack saw that and laughed loudly in stomach, he suddenly turned to look at Brian, curiously watching as the boy stood behind Matthew and looked at him surreptitiously. Jack stepped closer to Brian, bent down, spread arms wide and said:
"I'm not as scary as you think, come hug me, kid."
Brian looked at Matthew, he saw his brother silently nod, Brian immediately ran over and hugged uncle Jack. He patted the boy's head and replied:
“Enough with that threat, I miss you so much. You too, Matthew."
Matthew also hugged Jack, he hugged and kissed the two children passionately.
