crazy love

Chapter 34

( Inside the hospital room, Manuel sat close to a sleeping Fridrick. He never knew that watching someone sleep could feel so relaxing and intimate. He unconsciously stretches out his hand and touches Frederick's face gently )

MANUEL: what would I have done if I'd lost you? ( his phone vibrated, he moved back and look at the. Steven had sent a report of the investigation to him. It stated everything that happened including how Ella was the culprit. Manuel was baffled, why would Ella do such a thing? He could not understand but one thing he knows is that she's going to pay for it. He look out the window and saw that the sun was out. Two hours later the Delgado family arrived at the hospital )
FREDERICK: Mom I want to go home. ( he grumbled but quickly composed himself when he saw Manuel looking at him from the back of the room )
Mrs. DELGADO: shut that mouth if you know you want to continue speaking. ( Finn leans closer to Frederick )

FINN: I advise you don't say something like that you are only going to upset Mom. ( he whispered)

FRIDA: listen to whatever that dummy is saying, you are not leaving until the doctor says so. ( Frank looks at his siblings and smile )

FRANK: you all are a bunch of babies.

FRIDA: take that back. I don't care if you are older I'm going to beat you up.

FINN: you can do that after I saw up your lips for calling me a dummy.

Mrs. DELGADO: do you all want to go outside?

Mr. DELGADO: kids don't upset your mother.

FRANK. FRIDA. FINN. FREDERICK: sorry Mom. ( Manuel smiled he could feel the bond between the Delgados it was an unfamiliar sight but he knows that's how a family should be. He felt happy because he could be part of it thanks to Frederick. Frank walks up to him )

FRANK: Manuel can we talk for a minute?

MANUEL; yeah sure. ( they walk out of the room)

FRANK: I believe your secretary already filled you in on what transpired at the ranch. What I want to know is how deep your relationship with the Leroys.

MANUEL: the type that would be handled in court. ( he said angrily)

FRANK: good. Ella Leroy almost killed my brother. I and my family will never forgive her for what she did she's going to rot in prison for the rest of her life. ( Frida walked in)

FRIDA: that's not going to happen because I'm going to kill her.

FRANK: Frida no one is killing anyone. Please go back inside and let me handle this.

FRIDA: yeah, do whatever you want and I'll do what I want as well. That stupid lady almost killed my baby brother and you want to offer her prison? Not while I'm still breathing.

FRANK: please just listen to me, I'll handle everything let's not create a mess it's only going to upset Frederick.

FRIDA: do not use my brother to blackmail me ( she said angrily)I'm not stopping you from doing what you want so don't stop me, I'll handle the consequence later on.

FRANK: Manuel please talk to this hotheaded lady she's going to create havoc.

MANUEL: I'm with Frida on this ( the siblings look at him ) I'm taking her to court but that doesn't mean I won't deal with her.

FRIDA: he is a Delgado already ( she smiles) Do you hear that brother?

FRANK: I can't believe this. Fine, do whatever you want. You have nothing to worry about I'll take care of the rest.

FRIDA: that's what I want to hear. You two can continue your discussion. Our baby brother wants chocolate cake. ( Manuel looks at her as she walks away with a wicked smile on her face. )
