I'm Sorry, My love

Chapter 16: It's all over

"Where am I, what happened, Dad! What are u doing here? What's going on?"
The old man looked at his son with a stern look and again went towards his daughter who seems to be crying.
Valentina did not spare a second before slapping her so called brother. The sting pain in his face was burning but still he was confused. What is happening? Where are we? Why is everybody glaring at me?

He looked around only his dad and sister is present. Other than that the  white walls and the tubes stuck on to his arms. There's nothing to else. The constant beeping sound was annoying him. He wanted answers.

" what's happening? Pls anyone answer me" Valentina looked at her brother then again at her father.
The old man sighed and whispered something to his daughter. He looked at his son called son and left the room.

"Follow me"

The wounded man followed his sister slowly. With his IV it was hard to walk fast. But with somehow he managed to keep his strenght on line. Both got in the Elevator and stood in silence.
Valentina pressed the ground floor as the Elevator started to move silently. They both got off on the relevant floor. Valentina slowed her pace as his brother. Damien looked at the door infront of him. It read 'Mortuary' he literally don't know why they are here but as she opened the door and signals him to go inside.

"204 open it" Valentina whispered and closed the door. Damien had many thoughts running around. He wanted to know who is inside at the same time he much afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle such. His hands were shaking, sweat was running down his forehead. He closed his eyes and pulled the door in one go. The body tray came out. He wanted to look but still he kept his eyes closed.  But with some he still opened his eyes to see a small figure lying on the tray.

Those beautiful bread cheeks have turned pale white. The cute pouting rosy lips are now bloodless blue. No movement, no nothing. The only thing that kept ringing in his head was that his son is dead.

He fell on his knees. The shock was too much to him that he cannot even scream nor cry. It's like as if his brain turned off.

For more than twenty minutes he was just staring at the body. He wanted to caress his son but no, he can't.  He stood up like a zombie but before he could touch his son
Valentina came bursting through the doors.

"Damien Aven, you need to calm her down" it only took seconds for Damien to regain himself and run for his life. Aven, she's the only thing that's left for him.

They came towards the room to see her unconscious . The doctors said that they gave her something to make sleep. Damien came and sat near the bed. He asked every one to leave. And as per his request everyone left

"Aven I know you might have heard it. Our baby...our baby died my love. I know it's too much but our baby died. Our Adrian left us." Damien kept repeating the same and same as he drift off to sleep.

In the mean time, the mother who lost his son, a women who remembered her unfortunate woke up. She stared at the cause of all of this emotionless and took of the tubes in her hand. She carefully walked out of the room. Luckily not much of a rush hour as the hallways were free.

She walked and walked as mindlessly as someone was guiding her. She was there on top of the building. The chilly cold wind was relaxing at the moment. Standing on the bunk and closing her eyes, feeling the wind dancing around her, trying to swing her down.

She let go of herself as the wind took control pushing her down. In that exact moment she felt all went slow motion. She opened her eyes one last time,

"It's all over" and closed her eyes again forever.
