Angel's eyes flew 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9lKW9IVdb
open as she felt something warm and soft touch her face. Everything 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xbg0e2WxO
around her seemed a little hazy and bright as her eyes slowly adjusted 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDGEVI7Va7
to the light. She could see a figure looking down at her and Angel had 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7USioLxR8
to shade her eyes to see the person's face clearly. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF0eBfbpjX
"Hello, my sweetheart," came the voice of the person looking down at her.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i8A4ZfHvp
Angel quickly stood 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmK6ccj31Q
up from the floor she was lying on and faced the person in front of her.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvdQbEdkK1
The sound of the person's voice was so familiar now that Angel felt 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa9cNuatUx
dumb not to have realised it sooner.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHyFHtm46J
"Mum, is that you?" Angel asked.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JyGwumkkC
"Of course, its me, my lovely Angel," her mother replied as she touched Angel's cheek with her soft hand.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqHBV3sN3i
Angel closed her eyes1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnKpmj45o9
at the touch of her mother's hand and felt like lingering on it for a 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5DKWiIEYL
life time. She opened her eyes and her mother smiled at her.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PDj4RpysS
"I thought you were dead," said Angel. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWlTFSga41
"Honey, I know it will be difficult to tell you this, but sadly, I'm not where you're right now."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYReTTI67j
"What do you mean?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rmiiUwFln
"I'm long gone from earth, Angel. I'm simply no more."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQzHSnZUUZ
"But why did you leave me?" Angel asked with tears in her eyes. "Things have gone horribly wrong and this is the time to leave?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55rGD2HMC0
"I'm sorry I can't answer that, my dear. I wish I could. I know you're heartbroken over everything thats happened to you."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohjX4qOtID
"Carly, she's really disappointed me, mum," said Angel as she wiped the tears falling from her eyes.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz4jvIfJSC
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIsOONRph7
"If it means forgiving her I'm not going to do it. That will take a life time."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWyR3xjutc
"I know you don't mean that, Angel. As much as she has done wrong, nothing is going to change the fact that you're sisters."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtuiO6hAai
"I bet you're going to remind me of my promise, aren't you?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNLY3YjrpD
Angel's mother gave 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakqm96Go6m
her daughter a bright smile while she stroked her cheek. "Of course, I 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG4azjOUfG
was going to remind you of just that. I know that now that I'm no longer1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEjhJoMo2P
around, its going to be difficult for you. Your life will get even more1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCnXCekF6u
complicated after all this, but just know that I'm always there when 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26k694fwDt
you need me. And the most important thing, always take care of your 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXhVxA3hUc
sister no matter what she does. And that you always try to fix things even when it seems impossible to do so."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKzxziM8Ui
"You know I already gave you my word."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKafJtoMOTr
"And I know that 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLRm08gzAZ
you'll keep it. I know you might try to tear your sister to shreds, but 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8oa2Hrqxj
please try to be patient with her, okay?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMFRjbWYcl
Before Angel could reply, she noticed that her mother had stood further away from her towards something bright.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq1fLvWuNR
"I have to go now, just remember that I love you, Angel and your sister too," said her mother.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6z9X0ap8b9
"Mum, wait, don't 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrP8WOlGPB
go," said Angel as she started to run towards her mother. Her mother 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIA0hT47n9
didn't move from where she stood and Angel felt the distance widen. She 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdnZaAU3Hh
tried running as fast as she could, but that just made the distance 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT43t2hfjUc
between them even bigger.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBhT59jbT6
And then all of the 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyMr4uniBY
sudden, darkness begun to swallow everything around and the smile on her1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYNlI6lU5g
mother's face was the last thing Angel saw.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRg8V70EGs
***1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0HH2rnniP
It1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBCyFNuwYq
felt like drowning as Angel took in air through her nostrils, filling 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHr5rBt5Yu
up her painful lungs. A sudden pain and heaviness quickly descended on 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJlxsIAqrG
her body and she might have heard herself wince in pain. Her eyes felt 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ6lUvYEmw
too heavy to open, but she did her best to do so anyway. She could tell 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I2VfIR3d3
as she opened her eyes and her vision cleared, that she was staring at a1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EA6SxQfQ3
ceiling. The sound of a beeping machine was the first thing she heard 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11gT9ZuLr9
and when she tried to turn her neck, she realised she couldn't move and 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8SvibMqdS
her body ached all over. Her eyes rolled around, but all she could see 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1DarQQDzp
was the ceiling above her.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ787xXC6afh
Angel's1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJW8Yf5KN8
heart started to beat aimlessly as she realised she couldn't move at 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV9DN07Gqg
all. She felt quite scared thinking she was all alone until she heard 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCaUm69SKB
her sister's voice.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhiNzGUvfA
"Angel? Oh my gosh, she's alive!" 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyyluppIaM
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBopHLN0LL
felt like breathing out a sigh of relief, but she knew it was going to 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxAAWc6KWH
be painful. She noticed the face mask on her face and wanted to remove 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw6QBvKvKy
it. She could feel her fingers, but lifting her whole hand was going to 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMINRdcd4H
be a painful process. Her body felt heavy as it already was.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhikR4droS
"Please,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP0Dc2kCwl
call the doctor! My sister is alive!" Carly seemed to be calling out to1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREyYhyZLem
someone in the room and a male voice grabbed Angel's attention.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW52rGcDRD
"I'm1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qIxiVBK6V
going, I'm going." Quick footsteps were heard and faded away. Angel 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5e8zn7rBw
could tell that the voice sounded very familiar but she couldn't process1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJqqRkDoSn
everything at the moment.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTfceKBmS5
Carly's1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S63aoUhqE
face came into view as she looked down at Angel. Angel could tell that 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEX54aoNN0
her sister had been crying. Her puffy red eyes and stuffy red nose 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KaUVCsZC5
showed it all. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ6ywR1TL5
"I1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpLwRJ4qgM
thought I lost you, Angel," said Carly, "when your heart stopped 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F2bsktP17
beating, I thought you were gone forever. I don't want to lose you too."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4a36yFggm
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHx4mjfoJd
noticed the black shirt Carly was wearing and her eyes stung with tears1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ceFR3F42h
as she remembered that her mother had passed on. Her heart felt heavy 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIlgqPrnwp
with remorse and her body ached even more.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3N2vZlSNw
"I'm1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaLEAxF56x
so sorry, Angel," said Carly as tears sreamed down her face. "I feel 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWadMGRAMG
most of this is all my fault and I know I let you down. Please forgive 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWHaAJJEah
me. And I also hope that wherever mum is, that she will also be able to 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBiniMHnUP
forgive me too."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡied7CIM4EM
A1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSW0WChLCW
tear streamed down Angel's cheek as she continued to stare up at her 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk1zetWerA
sister. She wanted to comfort her sister, but she was still mad at Carly1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSZPVyAL2l
and she didn't feel like speaking at the moment. Soon she heard quick 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyZxvNqBRx
footsteps. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIBkNQu2n4
"Doctor, my sister is okay," said Carly as she turned to address the doctor.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpqmruLcsk
"Well,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm5PzqS0FV
isn't that a miracle?" the doctor said, "looks like your sister fought 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJpBW4HA6N
with death and won. I also thought she was gone the time we tried to 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanbeaPvz4S
revive her."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7J1JafFanx
"Well, Angel is as tough as I thought," came the male voice again which Angel still couldn't recognise. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuzCtFAl3J
"I think you two better leave while we take some tests," said the doctor, "don't you worry."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNTgNkgjOp
Carly looked down at her1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvNSdLnl4a
sister, tears still rolling down her cheeks. "I'm glad you're back, 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuHfsme1Hj
Angel. I don't know what I would've have done without you."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQmaIV4HcB
"And so as I," came the male voice.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirXZzojdsH
Eric soon appeared 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cggfpbsh1
within Angel's sights and he had a sad smile on his face. Angel's eyes 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBOD9UlTxm
widen at the sight of his cute sad face. She felt like smiling at him, 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yuRljFG4t
but a sudden wince of pain came out of her mouth. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofFRBplplr
"Angel, are you feeling hurt?" Carly asked looking worried. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRnBnrYbV5
"You don't worry, she's 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCN4zQJjHKQ
in pain, but that will wear off as soon as she takes her medication," 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLzaHu2mUf
said the doctor, "I suggest you leave while she takes her rest."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bBEU5YWL7
"Let's go, Carly, the doctor's right," said Eric, "we will come see her later on when she feels better."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8vDCOb4zw
"Okay, let's go," said Carly. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62Pg18TWE1
Carly and Eric looked at1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5MARdA7ix
Angel one last time. As the two left the room, the doctor appeared 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJyNDospho
beside Angel with a bright warm smile on his face.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywjWyvQCFt
"It's good to see you 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqKYK9t32e
alive, Angel," said the doctor, "now, I'll give you a little sedative to1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLekwWz1M5Y
ease the pain and you can have enough rest."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvmAwW1fOf
Angel saw the doctor 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPRREbzzFo
inject some liquid into her IV and she quickly felt the effects of the 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aXekbIHtF
sedative taking over. Her eyes peacefully closed as she realised that 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRankPl9kfn
rest was exactly what she needed.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0wnlW2SCZ
***1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlVdqAJ5zZ
A1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Dne7aEL3L
week had passed and Angel was recovering slowly. It seemed like 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W9W4Z3SnC
forever, but Angel was patient enough to wait until her body mended 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddygua4vu8
itself. Carly was always there everyday to watch over and take care of 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk72iJj3wO
her. Even Eric also did the same, surprisingly. And that made Angel 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M1n8RkrkK
wonder why he would be so interested in her well being.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumXw5CuiXI
As1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4qQPHK04m
the week passed on, Angel had quickly recovered from her mother's 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqaNHKe1d0
death. It didn't really have a mental effect as she thought it would 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnGQxAl7R1
have. But she pulled through anyway. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ917NLe4nBb
Apparently, one thing seemed to bother Carly, Eric, the doctor and nurses who took care of Angel.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVUjVjC2XO
Angel had never altered a word since she gained consciousness. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW7CvkF4Ma
Carly1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx6voJ9iTM
had once asked the doctor this and wondered if their mother's death had1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEFZEkLOyX
anything to do with it or maybe her vocal cords had a problem. But 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0vqiYqWg2
sadly, the doctor had no answer because he recently had a check up on 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PSKCyj5Wt
Angel's vocal cords and everything seemed perfectly normal. All she did 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JTwas9OTZ
was nod or shake her head if they ever asked a question, but she 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ8sFwZLg7
wouldn't say anything. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfCcAsW3NU
Even1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDMgJ9J0Fj
after the third day after Angel gained consciousness, the police 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLSzLthUEq
decided to take a police statement from her, but everything went to no 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nbphmBKH9
avail. Even Angel's workmates would come now and then to see how she was1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR9TDtOFEC
doing and her boss, Mark Dean, came to see her as well. But still, 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h3cTHdYq0
Angel kept her mouth shut.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XrtBLM3ev
On1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn6cJin2Pf
Saturday, Carly was around, taking care of Angel. It was lunch time and1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSYT2P9KOo
Carly was feeding her sister. Angel was now able to sit up in bed even 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj00ReljWB
though her body still ached like hell. She still had a bandage wrapped 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSldGoy7i2b
around her forehead because of a deep scar, her left arm was still 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXw5PGeRr1
broken and it was heavily bandaged. Her neck had healed drastically over1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtuR1ALmg6
a few days and her legs were doing okay, but they ached a little 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXN4WWtOks
sometimes.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrIO1wCAo2
As1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhffjHNJi3Y
Carly fed Angel another spoon of chicken soup, the door suddenly flew 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA73kVjq4s
open and Eric came in with a bouquet of roses and a basket of friut.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqSTO1qcQb
"Hello, there," said Eric.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufr17v2cJM
"Oh, hi, Eric," said Carly and Angel just gave him a half smile.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrHMho0d8F
"Well,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUujxa8jjDk
I see that you're doing better today, Angel," said Eric as he placed 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTRYCO73et
the roses on top of the drawer next to her bedside together with the 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX77W9XBH5
basket of fruits.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPTL5zPJyX
"Wow, aren't those like the third bouquet of flowers you sent her this week?" Carly asked.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gSNIs3gRA
"Maybe, I don't really count anyway."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCpuYhNjk4
"Awww! You see, Angel, looks like you have someone crushing on you. What do you have to say about that?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1skL5K4xs
Angel's smile widen a little, but she still didn't say anything.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK2MHTvOu7
"Um.. Carly, he's here and he wants to speak to you," said Eric.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgnJt1OME7
Angel raised an eyebrow. Something fishy was going on and she didn't like it. Who are they talking about? she wondered.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5czxey89U
Carly looked at Angel and then at Eric. She gave the bowl of soup to Eric. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIzH5U13G5
"I'll be right back," said Carly1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdY5uW2x3N
Eric1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUJzi5JGtK
looked up at Angel as Carly left the room. Angel looked at him giving 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTgt1QIGC0
him a face indicating that he should tell her what was going on.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkndiZ3M6L
"I1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OeSpjfgc9
know that look on your face, Angel," said Eric as he sat on the edge of1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWpMNXAVmm
the hospital bed to feed her. "You want to know what's going on, 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbkE76evuY
right?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhdjTSqYAM
Angel nodded.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoQ2H2EoXS
Eric1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7XvKc4fNX
shook his head. "I can't tell you all that at the moment. It's best if 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0CWc9dOeC
Carly does. It has something to do with your mother."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLSfmDA6bl
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GN7YmXEur
now started to think of the worst. What was it now? Did her mother have1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4cAk5Q86A
debts she failed to pay before she died or was it something far much 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME9JasW120
worse?1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjaLmPZUep
"But1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RqixSJdEV
you don't worry about anything. Carly told me that you'll find out 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDtSqBGPGZ
what's going on," said Eric as he lifted the spoon towards Angel's 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEengWai0Fa
mouth.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfbCUHTZMz
"Now, open wide. You need to finish your lunch, okay?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlyZxRTecV
Angel did as she was told and Eric put the spoon in her mouth. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEBB5c1gyB
"That's1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LsCX4oPz6
a good girl. I might just give you some special dessert at the end of 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoogdToR2qi
all this. What do you think about that?" Eric asked as he wiggled his 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoZ8SXQFhm
eyebrows. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYun2W3Byi
"And will that dessert be your lips? Because if it is, I'll gladly slap your cheek."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBtwbCTgU0
Eric1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb42cWPwyyd
stared at Angel with his mouth agape. She finally spoke. He didn't know1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSftzpKhcS
whether to hug her or kiss her for her to slap him and see if he was 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3LPsowgXg
dreaming.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODeHKvKgMK
"You... talked!" Eric almost exclaimed, but Angel covered his mouth with her good right hand.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1XZqRdYEW
"I don't want Carly to find out, keep your voice down," said Angel quietly.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uC8aAgfcO
"Don't worry, Carly is in the lobby. But why have you been quiet all this time, Angel? You had all of us worried."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY01yQFY1p
"I1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Eb9YloQJp
know," Angel leaned her back onto the soft pillows behind her, "I just 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SuaqpH17C
didn't feel like talking and all. After all that had happened, being 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcYUICwHEy
quiet was the only way to keep calm."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1GtJBK178
"But you should have said something to someone. If not Carly or I, at least the doctor."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOlx4qMRD1
Angel looked at Eric and held his hand. "Thank you, Eric."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXQrofufpW
"Thanks, for what?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM7iGVD3wc
"For1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0JRotM17k
being there even if we barely know each other," said Angel with a sad 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QnlHWuA6T
smile on her face. "You kept my sister company even though I never said a1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZfTbcW0Xm
word to her. I just didn't want to leash out my anger on her."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHEB1oLPcF
"Its nothing, Angel. When I said I was glad to meet you back at the bar, I truly meant it."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa67UznOR6r
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D9HSZUVOI
smiled and then something quickly came to mind. Images of what had 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbMzp7eXkw
happened last week at the day of the accident came back. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefX4qkR5eU
"Hey, are you okay?" Eric asked. "You looked pale for a second."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebNI4aTvAa
"The....1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd2iUC2Tee
the day, I had the accident," started Angel, "what really happened? 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDzcdmmmRd
Because all I remember is the phone call of someone telling me about my 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFJKKHfql4
mother's death and then nothing."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MEBaMXGht
"You don't really remember a car hitting you on that day?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUQXGBwwar
"I1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL5pdrxUXl
know a car hit me, but who was driving the car? I want to know. I was 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHOTeBlYiD
hoping you and Carly would bring up the topic these past few days, but 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi0Sasn2lM
you didn't. When the police came, I knew I wasn't going to say much 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliK0FKt77h
because I don't know anything. Now you tell me, was it a hit and run or 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYVWZXybdv
do you know who did it?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE62aTNVxCn
Eric looked the other way for a moment. "No, Angel. It wasn't a hit and run."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB97ygyOG5
"Then will you tell me?" Angel asked. "Why do you look like that? Is there something I should know?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaPq0W6Jnr
"Remember, the guy who was with your sister at the bar that day?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEapUaqfUK
"Ya, I remember the jerk. Why?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8coJl2ZeK
"That person who just called a jerk, is none other than my cousin, Leo."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFthKtunO2
"Oh," Angel paused for a second. "I didn't know. Sorry about that."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzHRlFnBx9
"No,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5h4jRZmm2
he's a jerk, that's for sure. On that day he was supposed to get 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqYjRcnN5a
married. But he left the wedding and came by the bar looking for 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0vZqzrzJf
Carly."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLomeOa7pW
"A jerk indeed. Why did he come there anyway?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGZSxKtlat
"Well, he changed his mind completely after the bachelor party to get married."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVA9pfX2hJ
"And he did all that just because of my sister? Ridiculous."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsCmBOf5IC
"Coming1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh94dHeibQ2
back to your accident," Eric now looked straight at Angel, "I'm afraid 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbnLF7M0uE
to tell you that he was the one who ran you over."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHw1pIQryE
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMmxlrxiRL
didn't say anything. Eric expected her to burst in anger but she looked1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE9FRJ5X5B
calm. Even her response seemed to surprise Eric even more.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kyKlEufI2
"So, he almost kills me with his car and he hasn't come by just to apologise?" Angel asked calmly. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gS88PvCNo
"I...1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5pYlpWvHy
well," Eric was lost for words. He expected Angel to shout and act 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjIbJDpWhZ
wild, but she didn't. "He still feels bad after everything."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa05vDjuUJ
"He still feels bad or is he just too full of pride to apologise?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmlm0nvjQv
"How do you know that?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpKK30caIQ
"I spent five minutes in that office in the bar with your cousin, trust me, I know."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxgt1UMS0S
Eric1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZfDYJETGJ
passed a hand through his hair and sighed. "On behalf of Leo, I simply 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pEDYXCpML
apologise. I'm also part of the reason why you're in this mess."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou7DZMP2g0
"It's nothing, Eric. I would prefer if Leo bought himself to do that, don't you think?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjZ1B5lPHH
"You're right."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKWvSYj66w
"I hope the person Carly has gone out to see by the lobby isn't him."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJBqNuy2wU
"No, it isn't him. He wouldn't even dare come to this place," said Eric, "Carly is talking to my uncle, Leo's father."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGL7Kcq3WP
"But what is he doing here?" Angel asked.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOATBtzyyol
"I'm1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc54cU5HENd
not the one supposed to be telling you this, but apparently, your 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyMiTU2FGb
mother and my uncle were good friends. The time your mother had fallen 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4xieTPebW
ill, he was there and took her to the hospital."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNrajU8Nr3
Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJccb0BiHJV
didn't say anything as she continued to look at Eric. The thought of 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UC2TScT0v
her mother during her dying moments made Angel's heart break. She 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDllGrl1WS
wondered how much pain her mother must have gone through.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCY8LLALIb
"Since you weren't talking, he decided to talk to Carly over some things."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcyMHeE4sH
"What things?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVzYwmu6Se
"I don't know," Eric shrugged his shoulders, "must be something about your mother."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6IrrpyWCH
Angel thought for a second. "Tell him to come in, I would like to speak with him."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRqOT4eTFh
"You're sure?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IR8vS82Z0
"Of course, please do so, Eric."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeHFAuXooN
Eric1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7fIusJ2nE
nodded and put her bowl of soup aside. He quickly rushed out of the 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr46bcgANO
door and he soon came back with Carly and a tall good looking man. By 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAxJEu4Khq
the look of his designer clothes, Angel could tell that he was one type 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLdkT1CyL2
of a person living the good life.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDsrfvdjkw
"Angel, Eric told me you can talk again," said Carly, "is that true?"1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8QAWAdMrD
"Yes, it's true," replied Angel trying to put up a smile for her sister, but even her cheeks wouldn't twitch. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw6MbjKVkp
"I'm1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yxjT0D7Al
so glad!" Carly ran over excitedly and hugged her sister. For a second 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGrIWdAYSI
Angel wanted to revolt and push her away, but that would seem rude in 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4hufRJIoM
front of Eric and his uncle. And so she just had to put up with it.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIE7OY00pk
"I thought you were still mad at me and didn't want to talk to me anymore," said Carly, "I did say I was sorry."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk59tqE5suG
"And I still feel like hitting you with a frying pan!" Angel1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOe6Pf3FeH
finally pulled out a smile even when she knew it was completely fake. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbviut238Zq
Despite Carly taking care of her this past week, Angel still couldn't 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFghXK4zC3
stand her sister after everything.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8MHaQpI7D
"It's fine, Carly," said Angel, finding it a little hard to speak. "Don't say such things, okay? All that is over now."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kt2azt0WT
"Sorry1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMbRZTO0nD
to intervene on the little reunion," spoke Eric's uncle, "but I think 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ijtEC7fFv
we have more important things to discuss regarding your mother, Angel."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q8dFMeinp
At1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkapDq8mEzo
last, someone had to bring up that point and Angel felt like breathing 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7NX0al7kO
out a sigh of relief. She didn't want to talk to Carly anymore. And she 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWfO0agW83
was starting to like this man already. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuZHSokEws
"Yes, Eric told me who you were and that you were good friends with my mother," said Angel.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxKUgnImjN
"Yes, Eric told you right," said Mr McDonell, "I came here to give my deepest condolences."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI0JE9uSMP
"Thank you."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLkTsJJ7GX
"I also came to apologise on behalf of my son, Leo. I know he hasn't been here to apologise, but please don't be too offended."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPSMhQVJab
"No, don't worry about it. You aren't the only one who has apologised on his behalf." Angel stared at Eric.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenlGKo4ghU
"Well,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8yV1uqBXS
putting that aside, I came to talk to you about the burial processions.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzvwIviHEV
We didn't want to go ahead with the burial until you fully recovered. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnFEAnRAH4
And your mother, before she passed away, made me promise her something. 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG7xfS6Sem
And I hope that you'll agree to it. I already talked to Carly about it 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWsgmldSqO
and she agreed, but the final consent is yours to make."1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFcFQrBC3U
"I hope you agree to it,1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuP2CpLBN5
Angel," said Carly. That almost made Angel want to slap her mouth as 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKqldIhQPE
she stared at her sister who stared back with hopeful eyes.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5ZOY0hRhG
Angel turned to face Mr 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdt8XaJ3KG
McDonell who was staring calmy at her. Eric stood right beside him and 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9QdOpYlJ2
he too looked on eagerly, hoping that Angel would agree to what's 1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yIuglWtga
coming.1028Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f0dIITNX3
"Okay, what is it my mother promised you to do?" Angel asked.
