“There
you go honey.” Emmet
said, gently rubbing his fingers along the waterproof plaster. “Are you ready to have your
shower?” He
asked.
“Yeah
it’s going to be
great.” I smiled
getting out of the chair and walking to the door, Emmet following behind and up
the corridor till we got to the bathroom.
“Emmet.” I paused trying to think of
how to word the question. “You
won’t hurt
me. Will you? I asked just before I went to go into the bathroom. I know it was
a stupid question but I needed to ask it. I needed to have him say it. I sighed;
it was probably the most idiotic thing I could have asked.
“Mi.” Emmet said holding onto my
shoulders gently and gazing right into my eyes. “Mi I know people have hurt you
Ok and all I can do is apologize for that. I know you have been hurt and I know
that you feel very alone but here and now I will promise and I swear to you on
Esmee’s and
my little daughters life, I will never hurt you. Whatever I do for you Mi I hope you will see
in the end I am doing it for your own good.” Emmet said gently but sternly
letting go of my shoulders and gently stroking the tears away from my cheeks. “Now if you want a female nurse
to be the one outside the door it’s OK and it can be arranged.”
“Emmet.” I said putting my good hand into his. “I trust you,” and for the first time I really meant it
