Terry reappears with his phone in the hand and a worried look on his face. He talks quickly and hastily and he doesnt even say good-bye to whoever he is talking to. Amy walks toward him and on her way glances over his shoulder to look for her husband. No Jake. Whats wrong, Serge? Rosa behind her asks. Terry looks horrified and as soon as his eyes find Amys his eyes show deep sorrow. Terry, where is Jake? she asks him. Hehe is the room. Theres a woman with a bomb in it. Threatening to blow it up.
Amy feels like she is going to pass out. Her chest tightens and her breath hitches. Jake, the love of her life, her husband, her soulmate, could die! All blood flees from her face and she becomes completely pale. This cant be happening! Not on their anniversary! Not after only one year of marriage! Not at all!
Santiago?. Terrys concerned voice doesnt reach her ear. Amy stares blankly into the air. Amy? Say something! Rosa calls out to her. Diaz, I have to handle the bomb situation, can you take care of Santiago? Terry asks still looking concerned towards the frozen Amy. Rosa only nods and very gently, lays an arm around the shivering Amy to steer her away from the corridor.
Officers from the NYPD and the SWAT team clear the corridors to secure the patients and the nurses from the threat. And who protects my husband? rushes through Amys brain. No one is there for him!. As Rosa sits her down on a chair several corridors away, a horrifying and terrible realisation hits her. She breaks down in sobs and Rosa is by her side immediately. Amy? What happened? Amy! as Rosa is touching her shoulder, Amy flinches. II am a horrible person! she screams hysterically. Rosa tilts her head and raises her eyebrow. Not what she expected. Ifif Jakediesmy- my last words I said to him will be about mewanting to start with someone else! she screams sobbing heavily.
Why did she say that? Why did she give him the idea she wants a divorce, if he doesnt want kids?! Of course, she, at the moment, wants nothing more than kids of her own but why did he tell him, that she wants to start over? It came out of her mouth before she was able to stop it and nowthose words maybe were her last towards her husband.
She looks at her wedding ring. She cant imagine anyone else having the significant other to that ring, then Jake. Her sobs remain echoing through the hallway. Her ears listening for an explosion, for the sound that would separate her and the love of her life forever.
Even if he makes it out of the situation, will he forgive her for saying such horrible things?
Rosa keeps having her arm around Amy and eventually her sobs calm down, but the silent tears keep flowing over her cheeks. The What ifs still flying through her head.
Hurried footsteps come towards them Sergeant Santiago? Sergeant Jeffords sends me, the situation is clear! an officer reports. Amy jumps out of her seat and wipes the tears on the way. She sprints down the corridor and fights her way through the turmoil of nurses, SWAT team and police men to then, finally see him.
She lets out a sigh of relief when she realises that he is completely fine and runs towards him. You okay? she asks him as she hugs him tight. Yeah Im okay! he answers, happy to hold her in his arms.
They walk home with Amy clinging to Jakes arm as if he is her Anker holding her down on the ground. By the time the couple reaches the car Jakes face shows a worried frown Are you okay, Ames? he asks and runs his fingers through Amys shining hair. She just nods and looks down, not wanting her husband to see the tear streaks. Ames? he asks one more time. II was so worried! I was so afraid that something would happen to you! II was so afraid that my last words to you were about wanting to-wanting to start over! Amy exclaims with her tears flowing freely again. Jakes worried expression softens as he looks at his wifes crying face.
He pulls her into a strong embrace soothing her hair and slowly drawing circles on her back with his back. I cant lose you! she mumbles into his shirt. He hugs her tighter and her crying slowly decreases. I cant lose you either, my love. He whispers into her ear. Lets get you home than, we can talk. He adds and walks, his arm around her waist, to the other side of the car and opens the door for her. She slides in and closes the door. Jake sits down on the other side and squeezes her hand before driving towards their home.
Sitting on their sofa, eating Thai food, Amy cuddles into the side of her husband. Jake kisses the top oh her head and smiles into her hair, wondering what he ever did to deserve this wonderful and pure human being. I love you. He murmurs into her dark hair. I love you too. And I could never replace you!. His grin widens. He definitely got lucky in terms of spouse. And both of them got lucky that very night.
