My Adopted Princess's
Chapter 6

The next morning Lewis opened his eyes when he heard a thud from outside the room door that was so impatient, who else if not Brian. Lewis's surprise didn't get there, his phone rang with his Mommy name calling him. What's the matter? There was an unpleasant feeling that Lewis suddenly felt.

“Lewis wake! You need to go to the hospital now!”

Not having time to pick up the call from Selena, Lewis immediately stood up from his sleep, he opened the room door and saw Brian's face was so panicked. “What is there? Mommy contacted me 7 times,” Lewis said, confused while looking at his phone.

“Maria is in a critical state, her heartbeat is weakening, let's hurry we get there.”

The deg! Lewis' heart immediately felt stopped, not expecting if the emergency would return like yesterday. Without thinking again Lewis quickly got ready and left with Brian.

During the trip, Lewis could only clench his hands tightly, his legs did not stop moving restlessly. “What does this mean I'm going to jail? Oh my goodness, I also killed someone and broke his son's heart,” Lewis murmured.

“No, calm down a little, may Maria be fine. Think positive!” brian said that without realizing if he also panicked and could not think positively. However, as much as possible Brian must be a tranquilizer Daniel, not make this situation become increasingly runnyam.

Brian took a deep breath when he saw the hospital they were heading to was finally in sight. “After we arrive, remember not to think bad.” Brian warned Lewis who looked increasingly agitated with a cell phone in his hand.

“Mom didn't reply to my message at all, at least he gave me some progress on Maria!” hiss Lewis who was anxious because he could not stop the anxiety in him.

Upon their arrival inside the hospital, the two rushed down and into the elevator, Brian pressed the floor button where Maria was. While waiting, Brian turned to Lewis again, he noticed his best friend in an uncertain situation. Lewis was a good man, he always helped Brian from a long time ago, never complicate things, but why could this man's life be so messy now. “You're not related to Amara, are you?” ask Brian slowly.

“Oath? What do you mean?” brian was confused.

It was clearly visible in Lewis's face. “I swear if there is one more chance in my life, I will really wait to pursue my dream and will not love a single woman until later I succeed in achieving my dream. But, if this time I directly end up in jail, I will end hi-“

“Stop that saying right now! Just focus on the current situation, you can't predict what the future will be like,” replied Brian, a cynical smile that seemed to mock even he showed.

“Ha? Won't love a single woman, really silly,” Brian teased.

The elevator door opened, Lewis first exited the elevator, he walked in haste but hesitated and anxious at every step. Lewis's body was instantly silent as he looked inside the room that no longer had Mary in bed, Caitlin crying in the arms of Selena and Tommy who were out of nowhere. “Mom,” call Lewis slowly.

Selena who was rubbing Caitlin's head just turned expressionless, she shook her head and immediately Lewis' body became limp, there was nothing more to expect from her life, he will be in prison and will be filled with guilt that always haunts him. “Last night Maria had awakened for a while, she just said she wanted to see her favorite daughter and also left a message to take care of Caitin well,” said Tommy who was not aware of when was behind Lewis' body.

“Then where is Maria now?” lewis asked in a trembling voice.

Tommy could only make his breath slowly, he was the same as Selena, just shaking his head slowly with a face that had no hope for Lewis. “A few minutes ago Maria took her last breath, I had to take care of her funeral because there was not a single Maria I knew, not even everyone in the Market knows anything about the Maria family other than her only daughter, Caitlin, the poor girl.”
