Gareth paced in his jail room , he could sense if something was not right , since he woke up had a weird feeling about the day and wanted nothing but to know what was going on outside there .
" Calm down man , you've been pacing so much " his cell mate spoke pulling a duvet upon his head trying hard to ignore the movements .
" Something is not right ,Collins "
" And how do you know that " Collins asked pulling it off again .
" Am just restless " Reth spoke gripping the bars and decided to call .
" Officer can I make a call please "
" Can you fucking shut it , you've been at that for hours and no one is coming " Collins spoke .
Gareth licked his lips before closing his eyes and kneeled slowly down , for the first time he was scared and worried and found himself doing what he's never seen in himself .
He prayed in his heart
" Please God , make it right , whatever it is "
" Calm down man it's going to be okay "
He breathed slowly and felt a pang on his heart , deep and sharp . A feeling he's never felt before , it was sudden and painful , felt like crying and tears did less than to stop .
One drop , two drop .
" Are you crying ,man " Collins asked waking from his bed .
" It feels so heavy ,man "
" Just tell me how you feel " Collins asked
" It feels like something is taken from me , I just can't describe what but it fucking hurts " he spoke but another drop and he held onto his heart and he couldn't stop himself .
He cried
And Collins went on his side for comfort
He cried harder .
~~~
Same time
An emergency sound came out quick as more doctors rushed inside the intense unit care .
" 200 "
Two pairs of machine held in doctors were punched in Giovanni's chest making it rise and fell silent
" Again "
Another but nothing
" Make it 250 "
Punched again ,nothing
Again but nothing
Instead a null sound came from a heart monitor device and all tears and doctors fears were confirmed and they stood for a time before one of the doctors held his friend patting his shoulder .
Eyes all on the patient as they calmed their own breath and others gulped slowly
Being a doctor is never a easy thing
" Time of death , 12:00pm " a doctor announced .
And there lied Giovanni Hades Craig , lifeless and clueless of what is going on in the world .
The doctors started getting out slowly to meet the panicked family of the Craig's .
" Doctor " Garen called but stopped seeing his face and instantly he knew what was going on , he pushed him aside and ran inside to his brother ,freezing on the way seeing a nurse pulling the sheet on his head .
" Tell me it's not true , just tell me he's okay " cried Evelyn as she fell on the hands of a doctor who held her tight .
Camilla held her mouth and her little bump as tears slowly fell down her eyes , she closed them tightly .
She once again lost another family .
Maria ran to the room not wanting to believe if it's really or not .
But was held on the way with Garen whose eyes had tears too and she screamed .
" Brother "
" Giovanni wake up "
" He's gone ,Maria " Garen spoke smoothly as he held her tightly and she fought him to let go as he sobbed .
And so was how death knocked their doors and took what belonged to him .
~~
Hades walked from the cell not quite taking the situation but he could feel it deep down ,something bad has just happened .
A police officer gestured him to take a door and he looked at him hesitantly but the officer just nodded .
He walked inside to meet the back of his son .
" Garen "
Garen turned to look at his father with his red eyes .
" What's wrong son " he asked gulping his fear away .
" It's Giovanni "
" What happened to him ? "
" He's ...
" Dead "
And everything froze for Hades , he always knew that he was not his biological son but he also knew that he was his son . He raised that boy to fine man he stood to be , a good tham man liked and praised .
He gasped as he weakened and Garen held his father .
His mind went searching for anything that was wrong with Giovanni but seemed to be over his mind .
A tear rolled down his cheek .
" What happened to my sweet boy ? "
Garen couldn't answer that he just hugged his father so tightly as he lowered his head to his son's shoulder and silently sobbed .
Giovanni was a first born of Craig's , known to be wise and gentle , warm and welcoming for anybody , he was his mother's favourite and his father's sweet boy , a lovely brother to their little princess and a friend and an adviser to Gareth , a brother to Garen .
He was all he could be to his family ,except for his flaws that most never knew but he was still their family and to them ,Gio was one good guy .
His departure hit hard to all the chest he was held dear to .
As all got the news , same went to Gareth and he cried more because the hardest feeling he was now to live with was he felt it and wasn't there with him , he wasn't there to say goodbye , ,but he felt that some part of his was taken .
A dark shade has crossed it's way over the Craig's house but there were more to come and no one knew what the darkness came with .
It came unexpectedly and took something they never thought it would .
Is it satisfied ??
Or will it take more of it ??
A funeral process worked up in the family ,friends , business partners and all whom cherished and once lived with Giovanni .
While the darkness smiled at all of them because it was surely not done yet .
It wanted more
And more , and more
Until it was sated .
It wanted more and it will take it .
