- German...?

Angie just now realized the truth that was right in front her eyes for months...

But she didn't noticed it.

Or she didn't want to notice it at the first place at all.

She didn't know.

All she knew that her love is standing right in front of her, alive and healthy and he was with her the whole time.

- German... - she muttered, now on a shaky voice as she was near to cry by now - You're alive...

- Alive... And really annoyed by now - he said as he walked away from her, to his office and luckily she followed him.

He took out a picture from his desk.

That exact one picture Angie also had for years, in her room, looking at it every time she felt depressed, or when she missed German.

- Remember this? - he asked - Honestly... If I don't have this picture of us... I'd have already given up and just disappeared as soon as I escaped from the prison.

- But you came back - she smiled weakly - And I'm so glad you came back!

- And what do you want to do after this? - he asked - I've lied to you, to Fernand and to everyone that actually know me from before... And I'd appreciate if you wouldn't tell them the truth.

- Why?

- Because I didn't finish my plan with them just yet.

- What? What... Plan?

- Revenge plan. Because if you didn't know it yet... Mondego, Danglars and Villefort are all responsable for me getting arrested!

At this moment Angie collapsed down on the nearby chair.

- I knew it... - she mumbled.

- If you knew... Why did you marry him? - asked German.

- I... German, I thought I'm gonna be alone! I thought you died!

- And this is a good excuse to marry Fernand?! To marry a killer?!

- Killer?

- You have no idea what has he done to get to where he is now... - German groaned on a disgusted tone.

- Wha... But... German! Why? I uh...

- Don't try to understand... You can't - he said - Nobody can.....

- German...

- They will all regret what they have done to me... They will see what they have done to me...

- Do you want to kill them?!

German didn't reply.

- Answer me!! - Angie cried.

- I don't know what am I gonna do, okay?! - he snapped - But I'd seriously just kill them... All the three of them... But I want them to suffer just as I did...

Angie was completely pale by now.

- Don't do this, German... Let's just escape together...

- This can't happen - he cut her off - Not now atleast. But now... Please leave...

- What?!

- Leave! Now!

- German... Just... Don't... Don't get hurt... Please...

German had his back to her and still didn't turn back, even when she said that.

He only turned back when he heard her leaving.

- I'm sorry, Angie... - he sighed painfully - I'm so sorry... But everything will end soon...
