Angel's eyes flew 590Please respect copyright.PENANA1r3Gas0qPb
open as she felt something warm and soft touch her face. Everything 590Please respect copyright.PENANAVgiNZrFyWZ
around her seemed a little hazy and bright as her eyes slowly adjusted 590Please respect copyright.PENANAbwJ7Ujoxrt
to the light. She could see a figure looking down at her and Angel had 590Please respect copyright.PENANArtn1wWoMZu
to shade her eyes to see the person's face clearly. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA9MhrlcBNlk
"Hello, my sweetheart," came the voice of the person looking down at her.590Please respect copyright.PENANA5rpLdLdJHG
Angel quickly stood 590Please respect copyright.PENANA8G4EPruo9x
up from the floor she was lying on and faced the person in front of her.590Please respect copyright.PENANAQo50QsHAnj
The sound of the person's voice was so familiar now that Angel felt 590Please respect copyright.PENANAaYn0b5txKL
dumb not to have realised it sooner.590Please respect copyright.PENANA30PyHGADTb
"Mum, is that you?" Angel asked.590Please respect copyright.PENANAID5LVkdQCj
"Of course, its me, my lovely Angel," her mother replied as she touched Angel's cheek with her soft hand.590Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y55u8XmAD
Angel closed her eyes590Please respect copyright.PENANAWrVgkbIpwI
at the touch of her mother's hand and felt like lingering on it for a 590Please respect copyright.PENANABOBBYJ3KfD
life time. She opened her eyes and her mother smiled at her.590Please respect copyright.PENANA7zeOxY7viB
"I thought you were dead," said Angel. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAewkML3JKgv
"Honey, I know it will be difficult to tell you this, but sadly, I'm not where you're right now."590Please respect copyright.PENANAvcsE7UnotC
"What do you mean?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAcH37bUlVcC
"I'm long gone from earth, Angel. I'm simply no more."590Please respect copyright.PENANAwmsznpMzGI
"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?"590Please respect copyright.PENANASDyPtb8Rbk
"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."590Please respect copyright.PENANAURielQS8K4
"Carly, she's really disappointed me, mum," said Angel as she wiped the tears falling from her eyes.590Please respect copyright.PENANABddKWFTEvm
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about."590Please respect copyright.PENANAedXOi4OpFe
"If it means forgiving her I'm not going to do it. That will take a life time."590Please respect copyright.PENANAFTe77PElal
"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."590Please respect copyright.PENANAw4swbntdiM
"I bet you're going to remind me of my promise, aren't you?"590Please respect copyright.PENANADBoTNmOwkk
Angel's mother gave 590Please respect copyright.PENANA2OSFmVkLUX
her daughter a bright smile while she stroked her cheek. "Of course, I 590Please respect copyright.PENANA9YVRYdR023
was going to remind you of just that. I know that now that I'm no longer590Please respect copyright.PENANARJbcdDsfQR
around, its going to be difficult for you. Your life will get even more590Please respect copyright.PENANA5eyiaoyV4b
complicated after all this, but just know that I'm always there when 590Please respect copyright.PENANAUS5OAIT4Ix
you need me. And the most important thing, always take care of your 590Please respect copyright.PENANA5CGLObYb9z
sister no matter what she does. And that you always try to fix things even when it seems impossible to do so."590Please respect copyright.PENANABFkMOVtgW2
"You know I already gave you my word."590Please respect copyright.PENANAGqTTen9v37
"And I know that 590Please respect copyright.PENANAcaR467arml
you'll keep it. I know you might try to tear your sister to shreds, but 590Please respect copyright.PENANASoxZx7P7G9
please try to be patient with her, okay?"590Please respect copyright.PENANA2fuDpEBI9j
Before Angel could reply, she noticed that her mother had stood further away from her towards something bright.590Please respect copyright.PENANAvtqzhFe3gt
"I have to go now, just remember that I love you, Angel and your sister too," said her mother.590Please respect copyright.PENANAwYs8cvtDvF
"Mum, wait, don't 590Please respect copyright.PENANAnBzhOKWSSU
go," said Angel as she started to run towards her mother. Her mother 590Please respect copyright.PENANA8PzocjyO6F
didn't move from where she stood and Angel felt the distance widen. She 590Please respect copyright.PENANAyggDaAYMij
tried running as fast as she could, but that just made the distance 590Please respect copyright.PENANASkd5xzB3Jt
between them even bigger.590Please respect copyright.PENANAqEjfDoFUqx
And then all of the 590Please respect copyright.PENANAFhbsIkVCIM
sudden, darkness begun to swallow everything around and the smile on her590Please respect copyright.PENANAz4zbtSAFhY
mother's face was the last thing Angel saw.590Please respect copyright.PENANAyPrzxLoAYW
***590Please respect copyright.PENANAIRilgRWB6Y
It590Please respect copyright.PENANAedguyCPtGs
felt like drowning as Angel took in air through her nostrils, filling 590Please respect copyright.PENANA9j1TS72wPT
up her painful lungs. A sudden pain and heaviness quickly descended on 590Please respect copyright.PENANAX3PRHCp0rb
her body and she might have heard herself wince in pain. Her eyes felt 590Please respect copyright.PENANA2Jyo6Y78D8
too heavy to open, but she did her best to do so anyway. She could tell 590Please respect copyright.PENANAoV9Hz99U8f
as she opened her eyes and her vision cleared, that she was staring at a590Please respect copyright.PENANArsjSzTA1Bs
ceiling. The sound of a beeping machine was the first thing she heard 590Please respect copyright.PENANAxmuv4kdhqX
and when she tried to turn her neck, she realised she couldn't move and 590Please respect copyright.PENANA38BAdvH1SL
her body ached all over. Her eyes rolled around, but all she could see 590Please respect copyright.PENANAyk3mI8gqlZ
was the ceiling above her.590Please respect copyright.PENANAGHhvlT2vvq
Angel's590Please respect copyright.PENANAFg8fZu1Zpq
heart started to beat aimlessly as she realised she couldn't move at 590Please respect copyright.PENANAGhYA9tBPQS
all. She felt quite scared thinking she was all alone until she heard 590Please respect copyright.PENANASDjqwwk46r
her sister's voice.590Please respect copyright.PENANAbHJOkhDvWZ
"Angel? Oh my gosh, she's alive!" 590Please respect copyright.PENANAcKV8MP9BjW
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANA2JKq9De0ea
felt like breathing out a sigh of relief, but she knew it was going to 590Please respect copyright.PENANAlpjCM5XRub
be painful. She noticed the face mask on her face and wanted to remove 590Please respect copyright.PENANAC5OvXhOJHD
it. She could feel her fingers, but lifting her whole hand was going to 590Please respect copyright.PENANAXAbevL9euK
be a painful process. Her body felt heavy as it already was.590Please respect copyright.PENANA2lByivbFFJ
"Please,590Please respect copyright.PENANAYyu6mF1mRd
call the doctor! My sister is alive!" Carly seemed to be calling out to590Please respect copyright.PENANArD7SyC3otY
someone in the room and a male voice grabbed Angel's attention.590Please respect copyright.PENANAV1BNEeVrI0
"I'm590Please respect copyright.PENANAkJ69Bm1XJc
going, I'm going." Quick footsteps were heard and faded away. Angel 590Please respect copyright.PENANAm4oNJ5NwDR
could tell that the voice sounded very familiar but she couldn't process590Please respect copyright.PENANAxFnFmK82fx
everything at the moment.590Please respect copyright.PENANAFX4ppEUHtV
Carly's590Please respect copyright.PENANAtl7AWDIOOb
face came into view as she looked down at Angel. Angel could tell that 590Please respect copyright.PENANAiSp3bhRncR
her sister had been crying. Her puffy red eyes and stuffy red nose 590Please respect copyright.PENANAm6mOcBbqOT
showed it all. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAuVSslbrcKg
"I590Please respect copyright.PENANAXz5dbtHVE2
thought I lost you, Angel," said Carly, "when your heart stopped 590Please respect copyright.PENANAdkdfMcdWWh
beating, I thought you were gone forever. I don't want to lose you too."590Please respect copyright.PENANAVMcPHWofQP
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANAfvZecOp5ci
noticed the black shirt Carly was wearing and her eyes stung with tears590Please respect copyright.PENANA3o75K9o3cg
as she remembered that her mother had passed on. Her heart felt heavy 590Please respect copyright.PENANAM999su82lc
with remorse and her body ached even more.590Please respect copyright.PENANAHhHNXkJZTK
"I'm590Please respect copyright.PENANA4rlo5RuEEp
so sorry, Angel," said Carly as tears sreamed down her face. "I feel 590Please respect copyright.PENANAkd9GoJi6CF
most of this is all my fault and I know I let you down. Please forgive 590Please respect copyright.PENANAlvfZea4l8P
me. And I also hope that wherever mum is, that she will also be able to 590Please respect copyright.PENANAvm335DmTzE
forgive me too."590Please respect copyright.PENANAEkMoUZCr7q
A590Please respect copyright.PENANAxcscKf8WJw
tear streamed down Angel's cheek as she continued to stare up at her 590Please respect copyright.PENANAXmEVH9l0is
sister. She wanted to comfort her sister, but she was still mad at Carly590Please respect copyright.PENANAVgoN9WJ4KV
and she didn't feel like speaking at the moment. Soon she heard quick 590Please respect copyright.PENANAxYEc4XbOrZ
footsteps. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAPMh4jB1HRg
"Doctor, my sister is okay," said Carly as she turned to address the doctor.590Please respect copyright.PENANAmwiC9rYlm1
"Well,590Please respect copyright.PENANArWqRjGnjMJ
isn't that a miracle?" the doctor said, "looks like your sister fought 590Please respect copyright.PENANAKQDXnUq52O
with death and won. I also thought she was gone the time we tried to 590Please respect copyright.PENANAjpln4RxPkO
revive her."590Please respect copyright.PENANALsZbCvFGjD
"Well, Angel is as tough as I thought," came the male voice again which Angel still couldn't recognise. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAaxVZRuOPGJ
"I think you two better leave while we take some tests," said the doctor, "don't you worry."590Please respect copyright.PENANAiZv6nWOZx7
Carly looked down at her590Please respect copyright.PENANAie2KghpLbS
sister, tears still rolling down her cheeks. "I'm glad you're back, 590Please respect copyright.PENANAPNHsu51DzY
Angel. I don't know what I would've have done without you."590Please respect copyright.PENANAf7jYoMI5oa
"And so as I," came the male voice.590Please respect copyright.PENANAzXIhm3wNoW
Eric soon appeared 590Please respect copyright.PENANAf3bTDdNK13
within Angel's sights and he had a sad smile on his face. Angel's eyes 590Please respect copyright.PENANAZs3ooy1TgS
widen at the sight of his cute sad face. She felt like smiling at him, 590Please respect copyright.PENANAtENdIBW4yM
but a sudden wince of pain came out of her mouth. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA9MGW8ieroj
"Angel, are you feeling hurt?" Carly asked looking worried. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA7jMnN3RIyB
"You don't worry, she's 590Please respect copyright.PENANAbc6WqHoCXH
in pain, but that will wear off as soon as she takes her medication," 590Please respect copyright.PENANAsIEsXRv9t1
said the doctor, "I suggest you leave while she takes her rest."590Please respect copyright.PENANATksF5MdDCe
"Let's go, Carly, the doctor's right," said Eric, "we will come see her later on when she feels better."590Please respect copyright.PENANAm2NATpDwFT
"Okay, let's go," said Carly. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAJML01AvJZm
Carly and Eric looked at590Please respect copyright.PENANApZuCTBs9kk
Angel one last time. As the two left the room, the doctor appeared 590Please respect copyright.PENANA95uiuvH9oG
beside Angel with a bright warm smile on his face.590Please respect copyright.PENANACHY7Rx5k4A
"It's good to see you 590Please respect copyright.PENANAhvLoUtIHdd
alive, Angel," said the doctor, "now, I'll give you a little sedative to590Please respect copyright.PENANALgyWteifdo
ease the pain and you can have enough rest."590Please respect copyright.PENANA0RQZRlSt6h
Angel saw the doctor 590Please respect copyright.PENANACe7XsVcmEJ
inject some liquid into her IV and she quickly felt the effects of the 590Please respect copyright.PENANAsKRSfyowEv
sedative taking over. Her eyes peacefully closed as she realised that 590Please respect copyright.PENANAAf3dkdAWZg
rest was exactly what she needed.590Please respect copyright.PENANANx9SnGsRIk
***590Please respect copyright.PENANAm7TbTU4mkE
A590Please respect copyright.PENANAyekD6KbnyZ
week had passed and Angel was recovering slowly. It seemed like 590Please respect copyright.PENANAaubfidANzQ
forever, but Angel was patient enough to wait until her body mended 590Please respect copyright.PENANANTdfuxfmjp
itself. Carly was always there everyday to watch over and take care of 590Please respect copyright.PENANAGcpwqRNWCd
her. Even Eric also did the same, surprisingly. And that made Angel 590Please respect copyright.PENANAVVyZgSDGjy
wonder why he would be so interested in her well being.590Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q0CtBuxuQ
As590Please respect copyright.PENANAdBw47BR40g
the week passed on, Angel had quickly recovered from her mother's 590Please respect copyright.PENANAP0grIUcoSR
death. It didn't really have a mental effect as she thought it would 590Please respect copyright.PENANAUeyYX3KPrL
have. But she pulled through anyway. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAMr9e6F2miS
Apparently, one thing seemed to bother Carly, Eric, the doctor and nurses who took care of Angel.590Please respect copyright.PENANAe6eKSoeuii
Angel had never altered a word since she gained consciousness. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAnt4WYZAF9O
Carly590Please respect copyright.PENANA5N6Q5Tm5Ac
had once asked the doctor this and wondered if their mother's death had590Please respect copyright.PENANAlCDRJlT2PR
anything to do with it or maybe her vocal cords had a problem. But 590Please respect copyright.PENANA6l652X1qt2
sadly, the doctor had no answer because he recently had a check up on 590Please respect copyright.PENANAe4VsRDtuJP
Angel's vocal cords and everything seemed perfectly normal. All she did 590Please respect copyright.PENANAfOX2weIKUu
was nod or shake her head if they ever asked a question, but she 590Please respect copyright.PENANAhFyOcZACLT
wouldn't say anything. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAHQA2b3nRaf
Even590Please respect copyright.PENANAKYvlhciLyb
after the third day after Angel gained consciousness, the police 590Please respect copyright.PENANAFzSbgSPw0f
decided to take a police statement from her, but everything went to no 590Please respect copyright.PENANAuRWobh7qYF
avail. Even Angel's workmates would come now and then to see how she was590Please respect copyright.PENANAfD7qpmvDvE
doing and her boss, Mark Dean, came to see her as well. But still, 590Please respect copyright.PENANArL2tLd6Yy7
Angel kept her mouth shut.590Please respect copyright.PENANABAGyT3LIqp
On590Please respect copyright.PENANA0env6yXFVK
Saturday, Carly was around, taking care of Angel. It was lunch time and590Please respect copyright.PENANAORYATxXXzg
Carly was feeding her sister. Angel was now able to sit up in bed even 590Please respect copyright.PENANAJkwyA8YgK0
though her body still ached like hell. She still had a bandage wrapped 590Please respect copyright.PENANAZnrkoo8uln
around her forehead because of a deep scar, her left arm was still 590Please respect copyright.PENANAc4H04siWMP
broken and it was heavily bandaged. Her neck had healed drastically over590Please respect copyright.PENANAKBwv5sygbo
a few days and her legs were doing okay, but they ached a little 590Please respect copyright.PENANA06RvEGl1JD
sometimes.590Please respect copyright.PENANAImjBBpGOb4
As590Please respect copyright.PENANASaNb2EZoK3
Carly fed Angel another spoon of chicken soup, the door suddenly flew 590Please respect copyright.PENANAovxxCOMuDT
open and Eric came in with a bouquet of roses and a basket of friut.590Please respect copyright.PENANADtmZXxZIJt
"Hello, there," said Eric.590Please respect copyright.PENANAcuekdhXUL4
"Oh, hi, Eric," said Carly and Angel just gave him a half smile.590Please respect copyright.PENANAIHcyA6GN83
"Well,590Please respect copyright.PENANAQY8UXjAcTE
I see that you're doing better today, Angel," said Eric as he placed 590Please respect copyright.PENANA90dPJr8OUA
the roses on top of the drawer next to her bedside together with the 590Please respect copyright.PENANAOvp9Z11Baj
basket of fruits.590Please respect copyright.PENANANOVjwa9hKi
"Wow, aren't those like the third bouquet of flowers you sent her this week?" Carly asked.590Please respect copyright.PENANAbtN7CtqoRX
"Maybe, I don't really count anyway."590Please respect copyright.PENANA5BKhOmWV2M
"Awww! You see, Angel, looks like you have someone crushing on you. What do you have to say about that?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAvOss9DP1af
Angel's smile widen a little, but she still didn't say anything.590Please respect copyright.PENANAErFp1aDKad
"Um.. Carly, he's here and he wants to speak to you," said Eric.590Please respect copyright.PENANAg7mSJsvm0e
Angel raised an eyebrow. Something fishy was going on and she didn't like it. Who are they talking about? she wondered.590Please respect copyright.PENANAJL69QcAmxv
Carly looked at Angel and then at Eric. She gave the bowl of soup to Eric. 590Please respect copyright.PENANARfiboE3yYc
"I'll be right back," said Carly590Please respect copyright.PENANA5Xx6jHwmkN
Eric590Please respect copyright.PENANAP9A6oBB0wW
looked up at Angel as Carly left the room. Angel looked at him giving 590Please respect copyright.PENANAb5pIZQMbzz
him a face indicating that he should tell her what was going on.590Please respect copyright.PENANA532XqRV5IM
"I590Please respect copyright.PENANAtKpXzRZsaJ
know that look on your face, Angel," said Eric as he sat on the edge of590Please respect copyright.PENANAaneZhxYLE5
the hospital bed to feed her. "You want to know what's going on, 590Please respect copyright.PENANAieMVyFbmoR
right?"590Please respect copyright.PENANA3IHnGwr36T
Angel nodded.590Please respect copyright.PENANAS0z8WTww5l
Eric590Please respect copyright.PENANAlRX1WrbSBE
shook his head. "I can't tell you all that at the moment. It's best if 590Please respect copyright.PENANA623GsMKx72
Carly does. It has something to do with your mother."590Please respect copyright.PENANA5Sf1jfymYz
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANA85XkA7XKxq
now started to think of the worst. What was it now? Did her mother have590Please respect copyright.PENANAhow8ivndwX
debts she failed to pay before she died or was it something far much 590Please respect copyright.PENANAn2791d30zb
worse?590Please respect copyright.PENANAuHD2VfsvfN
"But590Please respect copyright.PENANAUI9DQVP8Ei
you don't worry about anything. Carly told me that you'll find out 590Please respect copyright.PENANASaglCuyxP5
what's going on," said Eric as he lifted the spoon towards Angel's 590Please respect copyright.PENANABYtueyhGKp
mouth.590Please respect copyright.PENANAUXXZLzsn48
"Now, open wide. You need to finish your lunch, okay?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAY3vxM21PHT
Angel did as she was told and Eric put the spoon in her mouth. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAiSI3GdRm43
"That's590Please respect copyright.PENANAQjFFgvLcR0
a good girl. I might just give you some special dessert at the end of 590Please respect copyright.PENANAZgsIScwJys
all this. What do you think about that?" Eric asked as he wiggled his 590Please respect copyright.PENANAdBZ5XgdQmj
eyebrows. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAh7F0k93toC
"And will that dessert be your lips? Because if it is, I'll gladly slap your cheek."590Please respect copyright.PENANAReoF7DMz0A
Eric590Please respect copyright.PENANAjBApiFlVP1
stared at Angel with his mouth agape. She finally spoke. He didn't know590Please respect copyright.PENANAYd3GksF9l7
whether to hug her or kiss her for her to slap him and see if he was 590Please respect copyright.PENANAF31RWxDPSa
dreaming.590Please respect copyright.PENANAArFbzZMEfE
"You... talked!" Eric almost exclaimed, but Angel covered his mouth with her good right hand.590Please respect copyright.PENANANZRhV37PRe
"I don't want Carly to find out, keep your voice down," said Angel quietly.590Please respect copyright.PENANATP54KI1YhX
"Don't worry, Carly is in the lobby. But why have you been quiet all this time, Angel? You had all of us worried."590Please respect copyright.PENANAs2x8Ce5Q1V
"I590Please respect copyright.PENANAIpuxkGHviI
know," Angel leaned her back onto the soft pillows behind her, "I just 590Please respect copyright.PENANAXDFGMbaBDR
didn't feel like talking and all. After all that had happened, being 590Please respect copyright.PENANAZf8wmuWtpQ
quiet was the only way to keep calm."590Please respect copyright.PENANAR5vv3Wo0Qc
"But you should have said something to someone. If not Carly or I, at least the doctor."590Please respect copyright.PENANAuJMEDafHNt
Angel looked at Eric and held his hand. "Thank you, Eric."590Please respect copyright.PENANAi9f29Jl89Y
"Thanks, for what?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAYUjBwhuf6G
"For590Please respect copyright.PENANAY8z4dhap8g
being there even if we barely know each other," said Angel with a sad 590Please respect copyright.PENANA14712bov6d
smile on her face. "You kept my sister company even though I never said a590Please respect copyright.PENANA1ese2T7jjj
word to her. I just didn't want to leash out my anger on her."590Please respect copyright.PENANAdBCYDueDIr
"Its nothing, Angel. When I said I was glad to meet you back at the bar, I truly meant it."590Please respect copyright.PENANAxytegMiotd
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANAAjqvfI98SV
smiled and then something quickly came to mind. Images of what had 590Please respect copyright.PENANAIYYnzwkvCI
happened last week at the day of the accident came back. 590Please respect copyright.PENANALJkR3So3IN
"Hey, are you okay?" Eric asked. "You looked pale for a second."590Please respect copyright.PENANA8AW7a2vsrq
"The....590Please respect copyright.PENANAmzcrlWanOr
the day, I had the accident," started Angel, "what really happened? 590Please respect copyright.PENANAyxHURMz7UA
Because all I remember is the phone call of someone telling me about my 590Please respect copyright.PENANA9npQiALb6Y
mother's death and then nothing."590Please respect copyright.PENANAXW4ZFUeZo6
"You don't really remember a car hitting you on that day?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAJT3knEbWw6
"I590Please respect copyright.PENANASARIHrzari
know a car hit me, but who was driving the car? I want to know. I was 590Please respect copyright.PENANAmfgauTK9q5
hoping you and Carly would bring up the topic these past few days, but 590Please respect copyright.PENANAcFllFmf7kA
you didn't. When the police came, I knew I wasn't going to say much 590Please respect copyright.PENANAUWZduRXfKj
because I don't know anything. Now you tell me, was it a hit and run or 590Please respect copyright.PENANAd0gxE0HPb8
do you know who did it?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAUprXdCLQzF
Eric looked the other way for a moment. "No, Angel. It wasn't a hit and run."590Please respect copyright.PENANAMJAd38XNOF
"Then will you tell me?" Angel asked. "Why do you look like that? Is there something I should know?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAiiXd9zg33a
"Remember, the guy who was with your sister at the bar that day?"590Please respect copyright.PENANADwC0WIGdjg
"Ya, I remember the jerk. Why?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAGdhBuH7aOQ
"That person who just called a jerk, is none other than my cousin, Leo."590Please respect copyright.PENANASdGwSzcoIb
"Oh," Angel paused for a second. "I didn't know. Sorry about that."590Please respect copyright.PENANAHLYmbRE84R
"No,590Please respect copyright.PENANA9cA6XIvLiC
he's a jerk, that's for sure. On that day he was supposed to get 590Please respect copyright.PENANA2lzXdwAjP4
married. But he left the wedding and came by the bar looking for 590Please respect copyright.PENANAWFf1oznVKB
Carly."590Please respect copyright.PENANAdBR4XmTzYY
"A jerk indeed. Why did he come there anyway?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAR9Zd5ml6kk
"Well, he changed his mind completely after the bachelor party to get married."590Please respect copyright.PENANA7IKC3z1QhH
"And he did all that just because of my sister? Ridiculous."590Please respect copyright.PENANADpCdeFN47Q
"Coming590Please respect copyright.PENANApqpSRXrXQU
back to your accident," Eric now looked straight at Angel, "I'm afraid 590Please respect copyright.PENANAE3WBYRnSfr
to tell you that he was the one who ran you over."590Please respect copyright.PENANAxmP7eWAbGj
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANAqjVKQXzMTh
didn't say anything. Eric expected her to burst in anger but she looked590Please respect copyright.PENANALkl0UIWCMR
calm. Even her response seemed to surprise Eric even more.590Please respect copyright.PENANASPi8xKDNuo
"So, he almost kills me with his car and he hasn't come by just to apologise?" Angel asked calmly. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA68eX5mCW5z
"I...590Please respect copyright.PENANAI7riGUfEXq
well," Eric was lost for words. He expected Angel to shout and act 590Please respect copyright.PENANAHCZuKfgCuM
wild, but she didn't. "He still feels bad after everything."590Please respect copyright.PENANAEYYow4Qa0F
"He still feels bad or is he just too full of pride to apologise?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAM6lfghelGJ
"How do you know that?"590Please respect copyright.PENANArYqnAbqiIv
"I spent five minutes in that office in the bar with your cousin, trust me, I know."590Please respect copyright.PENANAv7Zd4XjwoJ
Eric590Please respect copyright.PENANADiTWbYjupW
passed a hand through his hair and sighed. "On behalf of Leo, I simply 590Please respect copyright.PENANAXq4ghm93uv
apologise. I'm also part of the reason why you're in this mess."590Please respect copyright.PENANAWIpKGWYERj
"It's nothing, Eric. I would prefer if Leo bought himself to do that, don't you think?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAD9TEcXHoVK
"You're right."590Please respect copyright.PENANA7AhkgGQPCu
"I hope the person Carly has gone out to see by the lobby isn't him."590Please respect copyright.PENANAFrXYhgtelG
"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."590Please respect copyright.PENANAy1PndjycMy
"But what is he doing here?" Angel asked.590Please respect copyright.PENANAJqDBIpGq1n
"I'm590Please respect copyright.PENANAtWsFbPDmGr
not the one supposed to be telling you this, but apparently, your 590Please respect copyright.PENANAEHBSwX3IC8
mother and my uncle were good friends. The time your mother had fallen 590Please respect copyright.PENANA4BGowRJCiS
ill, he was there and took her to the hospital."590Please respect copyright.PENANABNRy77ZKOE
Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANAuLWrF6Db2w
didn't say anything as she continued to look at Eric. The thought of 590Please respect copyright.PENANAIy9jtUUIvp
her mother during her dying moments made Angel's heart break. She 590Please respect copyright.PENANAIEx1zBJU5o
wondered how much pain her mother must have gone through.590Please respect copyright.PENANAKbn4OcpEg2
"Since you weren't talking, he decided to talk to Carly over some things."590Please respect copyright.PENANArhIRlhVqFz
"What things?"590Please respect copyright.PENANApcubrYJWiN
"I don't know," Eric shrugged his shoulders, "must be something about your mother."590Please respect copyright.PENANAuKFRAI6OJC
Angel thought for a second. "Tell him to come in, I would like to speak with him."590Please respect copyright.PENANAwZwWhkPij5
"You're sure?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAFRkrSe5E1z
"Of course, please do so, Eric."590Please respect copyright.PENANAxgtjALQvXT
Eric590Please respect copyright.PENANApAIv1EntDO
nodded and put her bowl of soup aside. He quickly rushed out of the 590Please respect copyright.PENANAAdIZffLXCr
door and he soon came back with Carly and a tall good looking man. By 590Please respect copyright.PENANAOCZZ4BI8ot
the look of his designer clothes, Angel could tell that he was one type 590Please respect copyright.PENANADkR60IzoDS
of a person living the good life.590Please respect copyright.PENANAiL66Y2XqEu
"Angel, Eric told me you can talk again," said Carly, "is that true?"590Please respect copyright.PENANAXD9MA3SYtd
"Yes, it's true," replied Angel trying to put up a smile for her sister, but even her cheeks wouldn't twitch. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAsl7Punyetw
"I'm590Please respect copyright.PENANAxnRcxM2O8m
so glad!" Carly ran over excitedly and hugged her sister. For a second 590Please respect copyright.PENANAyFW6hoQKXN
Angel wanted to revolt and push her away, but that would seem rude in 590Please respect copyright.PENANApkIQpWiVWX
front of Eric and his uncle. And so she just had to put up with it.590Please respect copyright.PENANAF4Tmz6189c
"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."590Please respect copyright.PENANAAuqPl8sdO4
"And I still feel like hitting you with a frying pan!" Angel590Please respect copyright.PENANA8ttr9WfXwZ
finally pulled out a smile even when she knew it was completely fake. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA6jphIzob5F
Despite Carly taking care of her this past week, Angel still couldn't 590Please respect copyright.PENANAQKk0FGx4Cd
stand her sister after everything.590Please respect copyright.PENANAWNj5jZxnmb
"It's fine, Carly," said Angel, finding it a little hard to speak. "Don't say such things, okay? All that is over now."590Please respect copyright.PENANAiSnhti9RLV
"Sorry590Please respect copyright.PENANAsxm6fmW8Wx
to intervene on the little reunion," spoke Eric's uncle, "but I think 590Please respect copyright.PENANANqzSi3uI8V
we have more important things to discuss regarding your mother, Angel."590Please respect copyright.PENANAnJ261hjpyI
At590Please respect copyright.PENANAHu2N97olyh
last, someone had to bring up that point and Angel felt like breathing 590Please respect copyright.PENANAcB4A4pHDKh
out a sigh of relief. She didn't want to talk to Carly anymore. And she 590Please respect copyright.PENANA3igh8BulIH
was starting to like this man already. 590Please respect copyright.PENANA2mcy3Q4N7b
"Yes, Eric told me who you were and that you were good friends with my mother," said Angel.590Please respect copyright.PENANADfQrrY0Twb
"Yes, Eric told you right," said Mr McDonell, "I came here to give my deepest condolences."590Please respect copyright.PENANArTtLfIq772
"Thank you."590Please respect copyright.PENANA6aY3dBE0sp
"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."590Please respect copyright.PENANAfBd8K4wFcN
"No, don't worry about it. You aren't the only one who has apologised on his behalf." Angel stared at Eric.590Please respect copyright.PENANAoiWqUbKejJ
"Well,590Please respect copyright.PENANAcXKgIlwA0F
putting that aside, I came to talk to you about the burial processions.590Please respect copyright.PENANAUrZFLVrJpo
We didn't want to go ahead with the burial until you fully recovered. 590Please respect copyright.PENANAwhxsujjMk6
And your mother, before she passed away, made me promise her something. 590Please respect copyright.PENANALBxjZe7F0d
And I hope that you'll agree to it. I already talked to Carly about it 590Please respect copyright.PENANAeXNFLXvprE
and she agreed, but the final consent is yours to make."590Please respect copyright.PENANAPNQETgkae4
"I hope you agree to it,590Please respect copyright.PENANA4c22HilXLv
Angel," said Carly. That almost made Angel want to slap her mouth as 590Please respect copyright.PENANATg66N6UnHg
she stared at her sister who stared back with hopeful eyes.590Please respect copyright.PENANAiUiv8JDL6D
Angel turned to face Mr 590Please respect copyright.PENANA1YasK5FigN
McDonell who was staring calmy at her. Eric stood right beside him and 590Please respect copyright.PENANAGMnxvC8XQ4
he too looked on eagerly, hoping that Angel would agree to what's 590Please respect copyright.PENANAa4GkMWFnmA
coming.590Please respect copyright.PENANAGHBzrzZEGZ
"Okay, what is it my mother promised you to do?" Angel asked.
