Angel's eyes flew 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5wYIM4v8x
open as she felt something warm and soft touch her face. Everything 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IdINxIeZl
around her seemed a little hazy and bright as her eyes slowly adjusted 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL8MVflkjj
to the light. She could see a figure looking down at her and Angel had 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn6E6iMmCG
to shade her eyes to see the person's face clearly. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPEaZ38ZxJ
"Hello, my sweetheart," came the voice of the person looking down at her.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNZFkESY6J
Angel quickly stood 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepIBqmnuW8
up from the floor she was lying on and faced the person in front of her.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnRDBbPGM6
The sound of the person's voice was so familiar now that Angel felt 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE4FpCq6aJ
dumb not to have realised it sooner.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVVCXC95Yn
"Mum, is that you?" Angel asked.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT1oubhmVM
"Of course, its me, my lovely Angel," her mother replied as she touched Angel's cheek with her soft hand.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnqyhqxEIR
Angel closed her eyes871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1xUeS6PA6
at the touch of her mother's hand and felt like lingering on it for a 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsMyGxYQK2
life time. She opened her eyes and her mother smiled at her.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aIxQzOhzF
"I thought you were dead," said Angel. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeLpBLLpSx
"Honey, I know it will be difficult to tell you this, but sadly, I'm not where you're right now."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3o2tUUSqM
"What do you mean?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36V8nPw3aZ
"I'm long gone from earth, Angel. I'm simply no more."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6z8nSUMSc
"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?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUib5o9w4y
"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."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNql7n8ZH8a
"Carly, she's really disappointed me, mum," said Angel as she wiped the tears falling from her eyes.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIDQAioNzQ
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCd9sQLORa
"If it means forgiving her I'm not going to do it. That will take a life time."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMRD7m4f5n
"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."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8DAnYZEiR
"I bet you're going to remind me of my promise, aren't you?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwecaXARUOQ
Angel's mother gave 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHY5tPgG0w
her daughter a bright smile while she stroked her cheek. "Of course, I 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVrYIkzl8I
was going to remind you of just that. I know that now that I'm no longer871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73PWzmCluh
around, its going to be difficult for you. Your life will get even more871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMoayPtqEv
complicated after all this, but just know that I'm always there when 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rtg8WlQvO
you need me. And the most important thing, always take care of your 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx13cUeOx6
sister no matter what she does. And that you always try to fix things even when it seems impossible to do so."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQUg0ExJeU
"You know I already gave you my word."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbQy6vCvrA
"And I know that 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4oeauSGkC
you'll keep it. I know you might try to tear your sister to shreds, but 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOU5VhsEVN
please try to be patient with her, okay?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SabGhwKvo
Before Angel could reply, she noticed that her mother had stood further away from her towards something bright.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPznnQxCcM
"I have to go now, just remember that I love you, Angel and your sister too," said her mother.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTfQKzblsa
"Mum, wait, don't 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8kl116jjQ
go," said Angel as she started to run towards her mother. Her mother 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU0DKtpYpy
didn't move from where she stood and Angel felt the distance widen. She 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARmnNQO9SK
tried running as fast as she could, but that just made the distance 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOp4T2T3oU
between them even bigger.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04rNntl1qd
And then all of the 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzbo5KPLDn
sudden, darkness begun to swallow everything around and the smile on her871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQmgROilXh
mother's face was the last thing Angel saw.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLvcug8sWQ
***871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbDBcXwS43
It871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2ebS61nGa
felt like drowning as Angel took in air through her nostrils, filling 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc18uTcvmb
up her painful lungs. A sudden pain and heaviness quickly descended on 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5NcqQSKYe
her body and she might have heard herself wince in pain. Her eyes felt 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLs9Oxt9rr
too heavy to open, but she did her best to do so anyway. She could tell 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYraZYgwbd
as she opened her eyes and her vision cleared, that she was staring at a871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK6jB4wTzz
ceiling. The sound of a beeping machine was the first thing she heard 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLV1vk4h1R
and when she tried to turn her neck, she realised she couldn't move and 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb5chSFH9D
her body ached all over. Her eyes rolled around, but all she could see 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgYkHBIEfP
was the ceiling above her.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEEyonMOEK
Angel's871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RCfNgMyMH
heart started to beat aimlessly as she realised she couldn't move at 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVQ8akTipU
all. She felt quite scared thinking she was all alone until she heard 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0wRXTucL5
her sister's voice.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmJCcPuJ9E
"Angel? Oh my gosh, she's alive!" 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNlfuYsldW
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DFjj7jy4E
felt like breathing out a sigh of relief, but she knew it was going to 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWeuhoIrkY
be painful. She noticed the face mask on her face and wanted to remove 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21y53AtHcv
it. She could feel her fingers, but lifting her whole hand was going to 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNKov9Ao2l
be a painful process. Her body felt heavy as it already was.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2LXkSpvRu
"Please,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcieMVkJtI9
call the doctor! My sister is alive!" Carly seemed to be calling out to871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpghDfktkr
someone in the room and a male voice grabbed Angel's attention.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L8jGFrZJI
"I'm871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGZqg0HspG
going, I'm going." Quick footsteps were heard and faded away. Angel 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktCNueF2Tu
could tell that the voice sounded very familiar but she couldn't process871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tVGAt6Xon
everything at the moment.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFUuA8IZ6l
Carly's871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8elpgfOT5x
face came into view as she looked down at Angel. Angel could tell that 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNG41N2XVN
her sister had been crying. Her puffy red eyes and stuffy red nose 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynXjEHGQNv
showed it all. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSPhwpQJFG
"I871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J20yUy0d4
thought I lost you, Angel," said Carly, "when your heart stopped 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb4rHRcXFz
beating, I thought you were gone forever. I don't want to lose you too."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluYgOA9Le6
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXiR4OO8lT
noticed the black shirt Carly was wearing and her eyes stung with tears871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAPPBF8KlM
as she remembered that her mother had passed on. Her heart felt heavy 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqa5yB5X6HA
with remorse and her body ached even more.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpIo7V2Umq
"I'm871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1jXSPd47f
so sorry, Angel," said Carly as tears sreamed down her face. "I feel 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJCjcHxGVO
most of this is all my fault and I know I let you down. Please forgive 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMSzRFUehs
me. And I also hope that wherever mum is, that she will also be able to 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdYxtdjWoR
forgive me too."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglzt8s4W6N
A871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1nPOqwcTc
tear streamed down Angel's cheek as she continued to stare up at her 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9GG2IA2uZ
sister. She wanted to comfort her sister, but she was still mad at Carly871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2d0IyT9Pm
and she didn't feel like speaking at the moment. Soon she heard quick 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc8edcjYkA
footsteps. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttXCXQAxQt
"Doctor, my sister is okay," said Carly as she turned to address the doctor.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDajDxlZsC
"Well,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMNi8ppNTe
isn't that a miracle?" the doctor said, "looks like your sister fought 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0do7pKyzP
with death and won. I also thought she was gone the time we tried to 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbxAamACPu
revive her."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevUspK57F5
"Well, Angel is as tough as I thought," came the male voice again which Angel still couldn't recognise. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTw0O4mDgv
"I think you two better leave while we take some tests," said the doctor, "don't you worry."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa2Tas7B8C
Carly looked down at her871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmTP8DT4ev
sister, tears still rolling down her cheeks. "I'm glad you're back, 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsLWiJ3P3T
Angel. I don't know what I would've have done without you."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuDbOI9bLD
"And so as I," came the male voice.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTS0G9fLTj
Eric soon appeared 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhi5DPyJeUO
within Angel's sights and he had a sad smile on his face. Angel's eyes 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpE9TTzaFT9
widen at the sight of his cute sad face. She felt like smiling at him, 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjEj5mxb4y
but a sudden wince of pain came out of her mouth. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2WyOIvMnx
"Angel, are you feeling hurt?" Carly asked looking worried. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6y0QHxI9yF
"You don't worry, she's 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDDBJFNXwk
in pain, but that will wear off as soon as she takes her medication," 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGco9j9ZbdE
said the doctor, "I suggest you leave while she takes her rest."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMIXuTyw61
"Let's go, Carly, the doctor's right," said Eric, "we will come see her later on when she feels better."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnBMYoQHkZ
"Okay, let's go," said Carly. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhEup72Ap2
Carly and Eric looked at871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8qUd2Ngv7
Angel one last time. As the two left the room, the doctor appeared 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHuniws1gX
beside Angel with a bright warm smile on his face.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrCsKj5vkb
"It's good to see you 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKdcJyAGZ9
alive, Angel," said the doctor, "now, I'll give you a little sedative to871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeUwr1I6B9
ease the pain and you can have enough rest."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqXFJH3Jot
Angel saw the doctor 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ5kRV2FUO
inject some liquid into her IV and she quickly felt the effects of the 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9zOPFbMDN
sedative taking over. Her eyes peacefully closed as she realised that 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCipG1za6KV
rest was exactly what she needed.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAJ91VgGeH
***871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlymRsYHtCR
A871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDng0021gcU
week had passed and Angel was recovering slowly. It seemed like 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksQlz3IenD
forever, but Angel was patient enough to wait until her body mended 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h25VmHrQU
itself. Carly was always there everyday to watch over and take care of 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxu8sP0XFAe
her. Even Eric also did the same, surprisingly. And that made Angel 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j50Yfkh9R
wonder why he would be so interested in her well being.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMuYptqrhf
As871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqDeA810Fu
the week passed on, Angel had quickly recovered from her mother's 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc0sqaltvm
death. It didn't really have a mental effect as she thought it would 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvsSal6mIz
have. But she pulled through anyway. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1NVX4FFq2
Apparently, one thing seemed to bother Carly, Eric, the doctor and nurses who took care of Angel.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNUeXDS90M
Angel had never altered a word since she gained consciousness. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WOK8q7UQr
Carly871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzGn8JrCjr
had once asked the doctor this and wondered if their mother's death had871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmD30G2XFnV
anything to do with it or maybe her vocal cords had a problem. But 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3rl4irMvH
sadly, the doctor had no answer because he recently had a check up on 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAoF6tup0v
Angel's vocal cords and everything seemed perfectly normal. All she did 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53DLVph4Xg
was nod or shake her head if they ever asked a question, but she 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6W2vIZ7zF
wouldn't say anything. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57SDfp5iuA
Even871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8Q2gxaW31
after the third day after Angel gained consciousness, the police 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa358RPr6cD
decided to take a police statement from her, but everything went to no 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX0WZNNV2G
avail. Even Angel's workmates would come now and then to see how she was871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ7JApwpfT
doing and her boss, Mark Dean, came to see her as well. But still, 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpBvxVS2ys
Angel kept her mouth shut.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjm42FjmUc
On871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwqaHvx7as
Saturday, Carly was around, taking care of Angel. It was lunch time and871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8mLae7o00
Carly was feeding her sister. Angel was now able to sit up in bed even 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmlIpwYD5V
though her body still ached like hell. She still had a bandage wrapped 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimYLJNFXVj
around her forehead because of a deep scar, her left arm was still 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcwSPzbEUo
broken and it was heavily bandaged. Her neck had healed drastically over871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3njJ8MqXS
a few days and her legs were doing okay, but they ached a little 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoGznXJQSQ
sometimes.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vY0VcfHlt
As871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyroNFQqjNK
Carly fed Angel another spoon of chicken soup, the door suddenly flew 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbd8FEWmwj
open and Eric came in with a bouquet of roses and a basket of friut.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhlkFL1SWC
"Hello, there," said Eric.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyPxUrKHhp
"Oh, hi, Eric," said Carly and Angel just gave him a half smile.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozTHZhvmx4
"Well,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9dQKLX86D
I see that you're doing better today, Angel," said Eric as he placed 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrHmLwktD6
the roses on top of the drawer next to her bedside together with the 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg38GpYTJ8Q
basket of fruits.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR05vzsa8AK
"Wow, aren't those like the third bouquet of flowers you sent her this week?" Carly asked.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGItHsAOev
"Maybe, I don't really count anyway."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXxZDTgFkD
"Awww! You see, Angel, looks like you have someone crushing on you. What do you have to say about that?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDMdZnzz7p
Angel's smile widen a little, but she still didn't say anything.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVtuzdpyrC
"Um.. Carly, he's here and he wants to speak to you," said Eric.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUdzyixohs
Angel raised an eyebrow. Something fishy was going on and she didn't like it. Who are they talking about? she wondered.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2LDhxHKYT
Carly looked at Angel and then at Eric. She gave the bowl of soup to Eric. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6HX05tcaO
"I'll be right back," said Carly871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXihNs9ahK
Eric871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXq89D2viV
looked up at Angel as Carly left the room. Angel looked at him giving 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNELqFF6Vy
him a face indicating that he should tell her what was going on.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvswCK8cfA3
"I871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8W1l6Zi42
know that look on your face, Angel," said Eric as he sat on the edge of871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbXiEWfOf5
the hospital bed to feed her. "You want to know what's going on, 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsPnGkghC5
right?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEofHh2x3MU
Angel nodded.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78irt1hkIA
Eric871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pVffkKlVB
shook his head. "I can't tell you all that at the moment. It's best if 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3b660u6Dr
Carly does. It has something to do with your mother."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEDetpcy0i
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglXB8NMzYS
now started to think of the worst. What was it now? Did her mother have871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CCnX1GrmP
debts she failed to pay before she died or was it something far much 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UYdfCr8Uz
worse?871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmyWmFGDdK
"But871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlG04aDia9
you don't worry about anything. Carly told me that you'll find out 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk4tYBHi58
what's going on," said Eric as he lifted the spoon towards Angel's 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XOefCBgHk
mouth.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKYEARQWa4
"Now, open wide. You need to finish your lunch, okay?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB9sYNmaZT
Angel did as she was told and Eric put the spoon in her mouth. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVb2XWMbHU
"That's871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qjbRGdx35
a good girl. I might just give you some special dessert at the end of 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeTrVNtejm
all this. What do you think about that?" Eric asked as he wiggled his 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJxxFZFAcu
eyebrows. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeV0RDiyaD
"And will that dessert be your lips? Because if it is, I'll gladly slap your cheek."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzRmqz5SLR
Eric871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdRfmaBacM
stared at Angel with his mouth agape. She finally spoke. He didn't know871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jk1DadFGO
whether to hug her or kiss her for her to slap him and see if he was 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ0Y8k8Lfm
dreaming.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWV8a8YkhD
"You... talked!" Eric almost exclaimed, but Angel covered his mouth with her good right hand.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbIi7xjDsJ
"I don't want Carly to find out, keep your voice down," said Angel quietly.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe12Ohzulu2
"Don't worry, Carly is in the lobby. But why have you been quiet all this time, Angel? You had all of us worried."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoJ1TKQOtg
"I871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVLtoVdTVz
know," Angel leaned her back onto the soft pillows behind her, "I just 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM3hwYYMV1
didn't feel like talking and all. After all that had happened, being 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KzrkjIdAN
quiet was the only way to keep calm."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBE3bVRWUK
"But you should have said something to someone. If not Carly or I, at least the doctor."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH94Ba4KMD7
Angel looked at Eric and held his hand. "Thank you, Eric."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo3KMOV4Fo
"Thanks, for what?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpE1GfaLw0
"For871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSchoSwhyK
being there even if we barely know each other," said Angel with a sad 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0pRKmW9Q5
smile on her face. "You kept my sister company even though I never said a871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTescpVBc0t
word to her. I just didn't want to leash out my anger on her."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvgIAPsn9i
"Its nothing, Angel. When I said I was glad to meet you back at the bar, I truly meant it."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Je4rRp1CD
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCvhh7asZl
smiled and then something quickly came to mind. Images of what had 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShiuKl6TbF
happened last week at the day of the accident came back. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0VfhcAPJc
"Hey, are you okay?" Eric asked. "You looked pale for a second."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzlt9nFRT1
"The....871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVabhN8n1OM
the day, I had the accident," started Angel, "what really happened? 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsTlfX2ru5
Because all I remember is the phone call of someone telling me about my 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnKY4JZ43E
mother's death and then nothing."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8Ppvtjxu4
"You don't really remember a car hitting you on that day?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3bhFvdqPY
"I871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqS6l66wY5
know a car hit me, but who was driving the car? I want to know. I was 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXpoNRIpoM
hoping you and Carly would bring up the topic these past few days, but 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcki4HKY94N
you didn't. When the police came, I knew I wasn't going to say much 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgyUkuMAMB
because I don't know anything. Now you tell me, was it a hit and run or 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx15FzjmMV
do you know who did it?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0KLsIlo70
Eric looked the other way for a moment. "No, Angel. It wasn't a hit and run."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46YlT2d49Z
"Then will you tell me?" Angel asked. "Why do you look like that? Is there something I should know?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivqFvjzR9F
"Remember, the guy who was with your sister at the bar that day?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9NmY7CH9Q
"Ya, I remember the jerk. Why?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqxVvZqO9b
"That person who just called a jerk, is none other than my cousin, Leo."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpJzobROvF
"Oh," Angel paused for a second. "I didn't know. Sorry about that."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkucO2gs8E5
"No,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlwoWWrEOU
he's a jerk, that's for sure. On that day he was supposed to get 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXlXDrtf2D
married. But he left the wedding and came by the bar looking for 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdkZRlwNM1
Carly."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVZz1arcnt
"A jerk indeed. Why did he come there anyway?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF2gsXKrwK
"Well, he changed his mind completely after the bachelor party to get married."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfZOvB0J9s
"And he did all that just because of my sister? Ridiculous."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUmJZGc4tR
"Coming871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtspfeuMtzI
back to your accident," Eric now looked straight at Angel, "I'm afraid 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yKWiZDUXH
to tell you that he was the one who ran you over."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5gBKrrqsy
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf1zIZpbWS
didn't say anything. Eric expected her to burst in anger but she looked871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe6w6Q6oh5
calm. Even her response seemed to surprise Eric even more.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgMtC9So9J
"So, he almost kills me with his car and he hasn't come by just to apologise?" Angel asked calmly. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPSoZENpJn
"I...871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwQYuixgB2
well," Eric was lost for words. He expected Angel to shout and act 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyZHXerJxu
wild, but she didn't. "He still feels bad after everything."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXFMWyESS5
"He still feels bad or is he just too full of pride to apologise?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXNss3rMGa
"How do you know that?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoavJiiJD5
"I spent five minutes in that office in the bar with your cousin, trust me, I know."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki18leVHPf
Eric871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV76gj82gjE
passed a hand through his hair and sighed. "On behalf of Leo, I simply 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqcC2F7zcY
apologise. I'm also part of the reason why you're in this mess."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt76PSsCbII
"It's nothing, Eric. I would prefer if Leo bought himself to do that, don't you think?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhoO8cDsVr
"You're right."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtaQAUCFQc
"I hope the person Carly has gone out to see by the lobby isn't him."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bF8HRxe95
"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."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU8JaHS713
"But what is he doing here?" Angel asked.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL8YaG8osX
"I'm871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynd4y0j6rW
not the one supposed to be telling you this, but apparently, your 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXStdpSXcF7
mother and my uncle were good friends. The time your mother had fallen 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEZi5TOtiE
ill, he was there and took her to the hospital."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h0n6tdw0m
Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoybQhLG1Ra
didn't say anything as she continued to look at Eric. The thought of 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNf09bw33K
her mother during her dying moments made Angel's heart break. She 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ArkaYf6kv
wondered how much pain her mother must have gone through.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdhQdjt9db
"Since you weren't talking, he decided to talk to Carly over some things."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKXHXCOBjG
"What things?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkcteVdhdm
"I don't know," Eric shrugged his shoulders, "must be something about your mother."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMM4eMbLTn
Angel thought for a second. "Tell him to come in, I would like to speak with him."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJhAGwrcGB
"You're sure?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0PzmSKNNO
"Of course, please do so, Eric."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi6KgIShVe
Eric871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqZErz2rlB
nodded and put her bowl of soup aside. He quickly rushed out of the 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyH347ezKJ
door and he soon came back with Carly and a tall good looking man. By 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqgYRtR9s4
the look of his designer clothes, Angel could tell that he was one type 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BfB0owwaQ
of a person living the good life.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ046gFyVcsr
"Angel, Eric told me you can talk again," said Carly, "is that true?"871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvV8n1hoPA
"Yes, it's true," replied Angel trying to put up a smile for her sister, but even her cheeks wouldn't twitch. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto0DcbLkpI
"I'm871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeJrdEiGf1
so glad!" Carly ran over excitedly and hugged her sister. For a second 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4TMWhkmyj
Angel wanted to revolt and push her away, but that would seem rude in 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSFB1DlHRo
front of Eric and his uncle. And so she just had to put up with it.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsKqqWwMt5
"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."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh6gY8LxBF
"And I still feel like hitting you with a frying pan!" Angel871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU40svNMPjO
finally pulled out a smile even when she knew it was completely fake. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEdyJYw0gp
Despite Carly taking care of her this past week, Angel still couldn't 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1ctGpoUIb
stand her sister after everything.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOyKBknjQs
"It's fine, Carly," said Angel, finding it a little hard to speak. "Don't say such things, okay? All that is over now."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrIvxs1Mzv
"Sorry871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ1mwNqgYX
to intervene on the little reunion," spoke Eric's uncle, "but I think 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYRbT4xDWB
we have more important things to discuss regarding your mother, Angel."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW7cFXydws
At871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ6XZdNuNM
last, someone had to bring up that point and Angel felt like breathing 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIxvl456Fv
out a sigh of relief. She didn't want to talk to Carly anymore. And she 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7pJJXGk3d
was starting to like this man already. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWs3keAUEZ
"Yes, Eric told me who you were and that you were good friends with my mother," said Angel.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmrDPguXe8
"Yes, Eric told you right," said Mr McDonell, "I came here to give my deepest condolences."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9bPg3hJoz
"Thank you."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJDh3CR4IC
"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."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZQLuCASA6
"No, don't worry about it. You aren't the only one who has apologised on his behalf." Angel stared at Eric.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJxhgK6OpZ
"Well,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc0rEC65k9
putting that aside, I came to talk to you about the burial processions.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYu5mGynJw
We didn't want to go ahead with the burial until you fully recovered. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAU2v15vcC
And your mother, before she passed away, made me promise her something. 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyVjKQQUtl
And I hope that you'll agree to it. I already talked to Carly about it 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sroPyqtpN
and she agreed, but the final consent is yours to make."871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbsuQG6A8x
"I hope you agree to it,871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4F414meBx
Angel," said Carly. That almost made Angel want to slap her mouth as 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aIK7j32TJ
she stared at her sister who stared back with hopeful eyes.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF15qmXQ4cX
Angel turned to face Mr 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdrCXWJAgq
McDonell who was staring calmy at her. Eric stood right beside him and 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtVgAJk00H
he too looked on eagerly, hoping that Angel would agree to what's 871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXQ81V07jK
coming.871Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH14b6uHhL3
"Okay, what is it my mother promised you to do?" Angel asked.
