The gunshot wound to Cristal's shoulder was immediately treated as soon as he reached the hospital. Angela was still crying to see her mother. Indeed Cristal was not able to survive but for the sake of his daughter, he tried to survive the pain he felt.
Compared to her, Angela suffered the most. She hoped that what they were going through did not leave any trauma for Angela. Angela has been afraid of strangers because of debt collectors who always pursue her but she actually has to experience the unpleasant incident. Hopefully after this there are no unpleasant events like that anymore but what about the debt collectors who are still looking for him?
Don't tell me if there's still a new problem approaching them. Cristal really hope that does not happen because he wants to calm down without any interference especially Angela is already very scared.
"How's Mommy doing, does it hurt?" ask Angela while crying.
"Don't cry, honey. Mommy's fine."
"But Mommy is bleeding," tears are removed, Angela still can't shake her sadness.
"No, Angela could see it. The wound's been treated, "Cristal's so grateful she didn't faint. If she passes out, Angela will get even more scared.
"Why hasn't Uncle come yet, Mom?"
"Maybe in a moment, lie down' to rest. Mommy will wake Angela up if Uncle has come."
Angela nodded and lay down on her mother's side. Cristal rubbed his daughter's head slowly. He was very worried about Gail. He could see some wounds on his head and arms. I don't know what Gail's going through but she hopes Gail comes to see them soon.
Out there, Gail steps inside in a hurry to find Cristal and Angela. He was already impatient to meet the two of them let alone a wound Cristal got. It felt very satisfied to behead Lucius, from now on he would not hesitate to take up arms to kill those who dared to disturb Cristal and Angela. He had to do it so that something like this would not happen again.
Cristal was thrilled when he saw Gail enter the room. Gail took a wide step closer to him, the two of them hugged tightly without saying a word. Cristal cried, a feeling of relief filled the heart. He was so happy that Gail came back to save them.
"I'm sorry, again I can only trouble you" Cristal said. If it wasn't for him, he didn't think Gail would be in trouble. His existence really brings trouble for Gail.
"No need to think about it, it's all over" Gail let go of her embrace to wipe away Cristal's tears.
"What about your situation? Did Lucius do anything inappropriate to you?" Gail checked Cristal's condition carefully. Cristal turned as Gail looked at the marks made by Lucius on her body. Gail's eyes bulged, some bruises were on Cristal's chest and she knew what the marks were.
"What has he done to you, Cristal?" asked Gail with high emotions. Had he known Lucius touched the woman he belonged to, he would not have let her die so easily. He wouldn't cut off his head just like that, maybe he would cut off his tongue first before chopping off his head.
"Why don't you answer?!" Gail almost shouted.
"I'm sorry, Gail. I really had no choice because Angela's safety was threatened. I had to do it so Lucius wouldn't kill Angela. I was so dirty to let that baj*ngan enjoy my body even though she hasn't had time to do that vile thing because you've come but you can hate me. You can leave me. As a mother, I just did what I was supposed to do to protect my daughter because to me she was more valuable than anything" Cristal said. If indeed Gail would hate him for that then she would not mind. After all he could only be a burden to that man alone.
"Stupid!" Gail pulled him over and hugged him back.
"I won't hate you because you have no choice. I'm just sorry I didn't know this because if I did, I wouldn't let Lucius die so easily let alone that he's just an over-talking loser! If I had known, I would have done justice for you, Cristal," he said.
"Thank you, Gail. Angela and I are so lucky to meet you" Cristal hugged her tightly, her cries breaking.
She was truly the luckiest woman loved by a man like Gail. Gail's hands were unceasingly rubbing Cristal's back, she had already made a decision. The real decision he didn't want. He knew after this there were still many obstacles that they had to face let alone the people who were chasing Cristal because of debt. It could have been after Lucius, there was another Lucius with different ambitions.
Cristal cried long enough to shed the mixed feelings he felt. He was not even aware of the wounds on Gail's head and arms that had not been properly treated.
"She's fine, but I'm afraid it's going to happen again so she's getting scared and I'm afraid it's traumatizing her too."
"No need to worry, I won't let this happen to you again. I swear to you that's why you don't have to worry" Gail said.
"I believe you, Gail. I was so lucky to meet and be loved by you," after saying that, Cristal gave a kiss on Gail's lips.
The two of them looked at each other, Cristal smiled as Gail rubbed her face. The hope of always being like that re-emerged in his heart and he was sure Gail kept to the words he said. Cristal's eyes closed as Gail brought their lips closer together, her hands already coiled around Gail's body back.
Their kisses were done with great emotion. They did it as if they had not done it for a long time. They re-hugged after kissing, not quite expressing the overflowing feeling in the heart.
Cristal leaned against Gail's chest, falling in love a second time turned out to be not as bad as she thought. Of course, if he falls in love with the right person.
"I have to treat my wounds, first" Gail said.
"Oh, jeez. I'm sorry I forgot how you were, '" Cristal looked at Gail's state and panicked.
"It's okay, I'll be back!" Gail rubbed her head and stepped away to take out the bullet still lodged in her arm and the wound on her ship.
She left not long after, Gail returned after her injuries were treated. Obviously Angela was very happy to see him because the girl had already woken up. Angela jumped down from the bed and ran towards Gail. He also jumped into Gail's arms and cried.
"Why did Uncle come so long to help us?" ask Angela.
"Sorry, Angela. Uncle's been trying as fast as he can to come."
"Mommy's hurt and Angela's scared, doesn't Uncle know?"
"Of course you know, sorry if Uncle's been negligent."
"Angela, don't be like that. Uncle's been trying" Cristal said.
"But Angela's really scared, Mom."
"Don't cry anymore, from now on you won't experience anything like this again."
"Uncle promise?" Angela looked at him with a hopeful look.
"Of course," Gail rubbed Angela's cheek and gave a kiss there.
From now on he won't let a single person touch both women. And from now on, she will mold Angela into a strong girl bit by bit so that she is not weak when facing danger not even Angela alone, she will be, he will also shape his children to become strong people.
