The Don's Deadly Daughter

Is he a Ghost?

"Kha, davno ne videlis', staryy drug?" The man chuckles and gives Yuri a smirk. (Ha, long time no see hu old friend?)

Yuri grabs the man and pulls him into the tightest bear hug ever. Yuri screams out happily to have his best friend back in his life and may even have shed a tear or two. Jade slowly walks over still in shock he was alive. After the celebration Yuri let Lapin go and he looked at Jade.

"Thank you for saving him on the bus, Jade. Knew I could count on you," Lapid gently pulls Jade in for a hug.

"S-so this is real, you're alive?" She questions still not believing it.

"Guess I should explain some things, hu?"

Everyone moves to the living room and gets comfortable hearing this story.

"So the bus crashed and everything was crazy. I woke up with blood dripping from my head and nose. Everything was fuzzy so I lay there for a moment to try and make it clear again. I hear the bus creak and when I look down I see the massive drop to the water below. Seeing the bus was about to rip apart, I tried to move but my leg was stuck. I saw Yuri would be going with us so since I couldn't save my ass I'll save my best friends. I was able to push him over right before the back of the bus fell."

"Thank you man, guess I owe my life to two amazing people." Yuri gave him a fist bump.

"I was able to survive the fall and my leg was knocked free. The first thing I knew to do was swim to the nearest shore. I do that but once I hit land I black out completely. I wake up and the nurses and doctors are going stir crazy. I'm wondering where everyone was and if people lived. I got the shock of a lifetime, I was in a coma for all this time."

"You were in a coma for like 10 years?" Jade asked.

"Yes, once I had enough strength I left to find you guys. Went to Yuri's place but was told they moved which hurt. So the next best thing, find your family, Jade. And as they were leaving to come here I was at the front gate wanting to be let in. Luca looked mega shocked to see me so I begged for them to tell me where you were. Got me in the car and we were off. Luca telling me about what happened here. Happy to see you're ok Jade, " Lapid gave her a smile.

"Thanks man and same with you, so happy you're alive and well." Jade smiled.

"Not gonna lie I kind of missed that smile, since last time I saw your face you were pissed with us." Lapin chuckles.

"Ha, you have no clue, 10 years is a long time and there have been ups and downs with Yuri's and I's friendship since you were gone," Jade said a little nervously.

Jade and Yuri take their time easing Lapin in on what has happened between them back in school. Hearing about what Yuri's father did to Jade shocked him. Jade even showed him the scars but they were covered by her tattoo. He complimented her on the tattoo as he remembers the tiger from the zoo. Yuri fills Lapin in on what he did to his parents for their lies over the years.

"Wow, that is a lot to take in but guess it's all fixed now as everyone isn't at each other's throats?" Lapin said nervously as they sat in the same house and not killing one another.

"Don't tempt me," Hugh said with a big grin.

"Hugh, don't even," Jade said.

"I was joking sis."

"Better be, but now I have some news to share." Jade gets up from her seat and looks at Divo that's been sitting quietly. "We are over Divo, I am getting a divorce from you."
