LAST CHAPTER

Mew held Gulf's hand. He's been transferred to a private room after staying in the ICU for three days, all the while they fix Sterling's remains, Mew didn't left Gulf's side, even if it took him to stay outside of the ICU. though his children keep on pushing him to rest and treating him really an old man as he already is, he goes to sleep on Thorn's office, and then he will come back to Gulf's side.

Their money was fixed by their accountant after Rain's men turned it over to the bank. As well as Art's dead body, he let Rain's men do all the things needed.

His fear years ago, seeing Gulf unconscious came back. And now Gulf was on the hospital bed again for the same reason, it's Art. But gladly, he's dead.

He keeps on pressing Gulf's hand. Whispering to him to wake up already.

"Baby.. You need to wake up. You're sleeping for days now.. I miss you so bad. I'm sorry I am not a good husband, I'm sorry for inflicting you with pain again after years.. Im sorry I am the root of this problem.. If not for me and not for my rejection before thiswon'tt happen. " he whispered while he kept onkissingg Gulf's hand.

"If not for what you did, we won't be together for a long time now, idiot.. " Gulf whispered in a hoarse voice while his eyesweres still closed.

Mew jolted when he heard his voice. Hapiness flowed on him.
" Bab,  thank God." He stood up and kissed Gulf  on his forehead.
"Wait for a while, I'll call Thorn."

He left Gulf and called Thorn to examine his Papa again.

Thorn barged in wearing his lab coat, looking so dashing as always.

"How are you, Papa?" he checked Gulf's eyes and his vital signs.

"I'm fine.. Is Sterling okay?" Gulf asked softly.

Thorn didn't answer him. Instead, he asks, "Do you feel difficulty in breathing?" Thorn asked him to follow his breathing exercise. Then he said.
"Mama is in a safe place now, away from burdens and pain."

Gulf squint his eyes. She's dead. That makes him sad.
"And Type?"

"He is recovering now from post partum depression Tharn was with him all along. Agent Rain did his best to cover up that Type killed Art. Art's body was cremated and put in a public cemetery."

"And Sterling?"

"She's in the family mausoleum."
Mew answered him.

Thorn's eyes turned misty, so he decided to go before he cried and made his papa sad.
"I gotta go, Papa, Dad, I'll make rounds on my patients. I'll come back once the whole family arrives, I have a video to show you later."

Mew and Gulf nodded, Mew hugged Gulf just enough to not squeeze him.

***

Type was slowly recovering. He's smiling now, and he is slowly gaining strength and energy. He's not pale anymore, and the most important thing for Tharn is Type now manage to give affection on AJ and JJ who misses their mommy for a few days.

"Kitten, will you manage to go to the hospital now? Thorn called me he had something to show us."

Type smiled at him.
"Yes, babe. I feel much better. I want to see them also to personally say my apologies."

"Okay.. Come on. Let's prepare at let's dress up these two naughty little boys." Tharn, get up from the mat where AJ and JJ were crawling and playing as they both watch them.

They get ready and head to the hospital, but before that, they let the househelps cut sunflowers from the plantation for Gulf.

***

Arisa, Thanya, and Josiah came altogether. While Type and Tharn with the twins came just right next to them.

They head to the private suit where Gulf and Mew are, and Thorn met them on the door. He's holding his laptop.

"Come on, let's get inside."

They all get inside.

Type immediately hugged Gulf, who was sitting now on his bed, still with the cannula on his nose and an IV on his arm.

"Please forgive me, Papa, Dad.." He looks at Mew with pleading eyes.

"Let bygones be bygones, let's start anew.. Art is part of the past now.. Let us let him rest in peace. If he can." Mew laugh slowly.

"It's fine. Type. Really.. Art did the worst before, but I managed to forgive him."

"Thank you so much." Type kissed Gulf on the forehead.

After him, Thanya and Arisa took time to exchange pleasantries for their parents, so as Josiah, who just came from Spain. Bosser can't come as of the moment because he has an urgent meeting.

They hugged him and wished him to recover fast.

AJ and JJ were on their stroller, and Gulf just managed to wave on his grandsons.

Thorn stand in front of them.
"Since we are complete, I want to show you this as per Mama's last wish. Can you stay beside Mama, hon, and monitor his heartbeat, please?" Thorn asked Arisa, who gladly obliged and even gave a tissue box to Gulf. Mew stand beside him.

Tharn sat on the couch, then he pulled Type beside him, while Josiah and Thanya did the same.

Thorn turned on the 72' LED tv and connected it on his laptop, and after a few minutes, the beautiful face of Sterling appeared.

Gulf gasped when he saw her. She's beautiful. Her pale cheeks are beautified by a faint pink blush, and her lips are colored by a light pink liptint. She doesn't look sickly.

Sterling smiled and waved,
"Hi guys, I know, I will not be around when you watch this. I even let Arisa fix my face. I just want you to know that I will be leaving soon. This borrowed life of mine will return to the real owner. My oncologist said that I only have a few months to live, which I gladly accepted. But I am thankful for being part of your family even for a short time." Sterling paused for a while. Then she smiled softly.

Gulf's eyes watered.
Sterling at the camera.
" I just want to thank you, Gulf, for giving me a chance to be a mother to our children. For giving me a chance to feel how it is to be a mother, even in my dying days, I am truly indebted. At first, I hated you because I saw you as a selfish person, but it turned out to be wrong when you selflessly gave your son's attention for me. For letting them spare their time for me. Trust me, hearing them calls me MAMA is a great treasure that I will bring in my grave. I am truly grateful, Gulf. "
She sheepishly smiled.
Then she paused for a bit and continued.

"Mew, please continue to be the strong pillar of the family. Forgive me, for I didn't stop loving you all through the years, and even by just looking at you from a distance, it makes me feel contented. Thank you.

"Tharn and Thorn, my children, thank you for the love and acceptance. You are my treasures. Keep loving your parents and dont forsake them, same as you, Thanya, our Princess.

Arisa and Type. Please continue to cherish your husbands and love them through thick and thin. Keep holding on their hands and dont let go. Strengthen your love by showering them affection that they need. "

"And lastly. Dont forget to introduce me to your children as their one and only grandmother. Thank you so much, and I love you guys. "

Then it all stops.
Faint sobs filled the whole room. Tharn hugged Type as they both cried. So, as Arisa hugged Thorn. Thorn was just looking from a far. Truly, he is the bravest.

Gulf buried his face on Mew's chest as he also sobbed.

He didn't regret giving Sterling what she deserved. She's a good mother, and the sister Gulf never had. Time may not be enough for their bonds before, but that will all be cherished for them who were left.

They are certain that Sterling will be at peace and happy wherever she is right now, and she will be always on their hearts.
