"I'm sorry, for everything I did to you Mercy but I promise I'll try my best to fulfill your last wish. I promise to leave him even though this is the most difficult thing I ever had to do. I'll still do it for you and your daughter's sake. I'll never return to Benjamin, I'll forget he ever existed like you asked me to." I broke down. I wish my life wasn't this complicated. "I love him so much but now I understand you loved him more than I ever did after all you beat me to taking your life for him. He chose me over you and you took your life for his sake, you killed yourself because of me. You not a coward in my eyes Mercy, you actually braver than I'll ever be." I continued. "Goodbye Mercy Russo, and goodbye my love to Benjamin. I'll forever love you Benjamin but I can't also tell you the truth why I have to leave you. I have to fulfill her last wish. Please forgive me." I got up to leave and as soon as I turned around Benjamin was standing at the back of me.

"You will leave me alone?" He questioned tears visible in his eyes. "After the promise you made me, you still want to leave me because of her?"

"Please forgive me." I begged.

"At least stay for your sisters wedding. Then you may leave, I won't stop you but don't ask me to forgive you. I can't forgive you Sofia." He mumbled shutting his eyes as he handed me some papers and a pen.

"What is this?" I asked but he didn't answer me so I opened the pages and saw that it was all about everything he owns. "Why do you need my signature? Why I'm I the owner?"

"Just sign." He uttered staring at the ground and I signed on every single page.

"I'll see you at the wedding." He took the papers and left.

Two month's later

Today is my sister's bachelorette. I'm really happy for Stella and Tucker but I can't help hating myself for Mercy's death. She was too young to die, her daughter is now an orphan and I'm the one responsible for everything. I know I might've never pulled the trigger that killed her but I have done enough to be responsible for what happened to her.

"Juliet is crying again sister, why don't you make her quiet. She never listens to me." Stella complained handing me her baby. "I don't know why I'm a bad mother, she loves Tucker more than me."

"She's getting hot Stella, you just never listen, do you. You going to kill this baby if you keep putting so much clothes on her." I told her undressing the baby.

"Sofia, I didn't know what my own daughter even needs and tomorrow I'll be married. How can I keep my own husband happy when I can't even keep my own daughter happy." She mumbled and before I could speak Tucker took over.

"We have been dating for so long and I was happy with you wasn't I?" He questioned picking her up. "I'll always be happy if you with me and you know I would kiss you right now but I'm scared your big sister will cancel our wedding." He continued as he put her down. "I'm late for my party, see you all tomorrow at the wedding and Sofia, Benjamin said he will only see the kids tomorrow morning, he will be too drunk to visit them tonight." Tucker ran away before I could ask him anything.

"So you ready for our party?" Stella asked and I shook my head.

"Stephanie, Anna, Charlotte, Chloe and your sisters-in-law will be here soon, you just get ready quickly. I'll babysit the kids tonight." I answered.

"You can't expect me to party while my sister is crying her heart out here alone with children crying with you." Stella complained taking my hand. "If you stay, than I'll stay too."
