CHAPTER 17
GIANNI
She started losing blood at home before the ambulance arrived, when we arrived at the hospital, I was following the stretcher she was lying on, I could hear the noises around me as if they were coming from very away, all I wish deep down is that nothing happens to her and the baby, when we arrive at the emergency room they ask me to wait and they put her in a room, I was helpless I am unable to do anything, I hate being in this situation so much, I hate myself so much right now, I take my phone and I call her aunt to meet us at the hospital , I'm sure it will make her happy to see her when she wakes up
Me trying to calm myself: God I never ask you for anything, today I'm just asking you to make sure the woman I love doesn't lose her smile, make sure she doesn't lose our baby and I promise to become a better person
Way behind me: how is she?
Me turning around: I don't know yet...
The aunt: and yet I had warned her, but she did not listen to me, I knew that this story was going to end badly but she preferred to turn a deaf ear here...
Me feeling guilty: I'm so sorry madam….
The aunt raising her voice: don't be sorry, really pray to God that it doesn't happen to her, if not
Mila: we calm down, nothing will happen, everyone is in shock now and it's not the time to look for a culprit
Me: madam the last thing i want is for your niece to happen badly, it may be hard to believe for you but i really love her
I see a doctor coming towards us, we are all approaching him, I hope he will give us good news
Me: How is she doing?
Doctor: She's fine
Aunt: Where is she, can we see her?
The Doctor: Yes, she's in room 205 on the second floor.
Me: she the baby?
Doctor: sorry we couldn't do anything, she had a miscarriage
I felt like I was in a bad dream, I want to wake up with all my strength but I can't, in a few seconds my dreams and my hopes of becoming a father vanished, if I feel what I I don't even know how she can feel she
The aunt stirring me: you're happy now aren't you, your plan to break her has come to fruition, you can be proud of yourself
Mila: calm down aunt, we should go see her
I turn around and walk towards the exit I'm not in a state to look her in the face yet, it's cowardly I know but it won't help her that she sees me in this state, I prefer iron when his aunt is not there to avoid a scandal
MILA
When I left today I didn't know we were going to meet again in such a situation, I don't really know what happened but I see so much guilt in Gianni's eyes and the aunt doesn't help not at all the situation with his reaction
When we return to the jade room she was lying on her side and staring at a point in the void
Aunt: What happened?
Jade: I slipped on the stairs...
Aunt: Like you were just walking and slipped down the stairs like that right?
Me taking a seat next to her and stroking her hair: what happened between you guys? You had a fight, right?
Jade: he saw the pregnancy tests in the drawer and wanted to figure out what was going on, it led to an argument between us, I was walking down the stairs he was behind me I took a wrong step I slipped and I fell
Jade: I'm so sorry for what happened, I see why Gianni was so mad
Aunt: He blamed himself? He finished killing my grandson you tell me he blames himself, will it bring him back to life? And besides, you're not going back to this house anymore, you're going back with me
Jade: no it's my husband, if that baby didn't survive it's because they didn't come to stay in this world, and it's in no way his fault, if I had simply said that these tests were mine, nothing would have happened
Aunt: So you're advocating for her now? Continue and we will soon bury you like your sister, if your life does not interest you, it interests me, and you will not return to this house again, I said
Jade bursting into tears: Do you think it hurts me to lose my baby? I just found out that I'm going to be a mother for the first time, I haven't even had time to get used to this idea that I'm already losing it, I would have liked Gianni so much to be in charge so that I could find someone to blame, so i can't feel that guilt but he is in no way responsible for what happened to me today, this is all happening to me because of my desire to hurt him for what happened with Amber but the one who all this hurts is myself, I suffer more from this situation than anyone, this hatred is slowly destroying me, I am so tired, I would have wanted so much to die today too so as not to have so much pain, so as not to feel what I feel at the moment, there is no point in putting the death of my baby on her head again
I hug her so tight in my arms, I can't stop crying at this scene, I didn't know she felt all of this deep inside her, I feel so sorry for her right now. moment, why God has to put her through all her
Jade still crying: I'm so tired of everything that's going on, I'm tired of feeling so much hate, I'm tired of hurting, my heart weighs so heavy right now
Me trying to control my way shaking: I know my dear, I'm sure and certain that God has planned great things for you, and you will be really happy, it will all be an old story
Jade: Sure?
Me: I'm on honey, I promise...
We stay there with her until she falls asleep, we stay there at her bedside until Gianni comes back
Gianni: How is she doing?
Me: it's ok, she's just very sad, what did you get?
Gianni looking at his bandaged hand: it's nothing serious
Me: There's no point in banging things, what she needs is your support
The aunt: the little fool refused to come back with me, I hope to see her again in a better state than she is now
Gianni: I give you my word ma'am
Aunt: No need to make me promises, good night
Gianni: the driver will drop you off
The aunt taking her bag: no thanks
Me: I came with my car, I'll drop it off, have a good night
Gianni: thank you
JADE
When I wake up, my aunt and Mila were gone, Gianni was sitting in the chair in front of me, I was very thirsty, when I tried to get up he gets up and comes to help me sit down and put a pillow behind me
I am thirsty
He gives me water and helps me to bed, he brings his chair closer to my bed and takes my hand in his
Gianni: How are you feeling?
I'm alright…
Gianni: I'm so sorry, everything that happened is my fault, I never should have followed you down the stairs, I never wanted it to come to this, if I arrived earlier today it's because I missed you and I wanted to spend the evening with you, I should have spent the evening at work, I'm so sorry
Me: It's in no way your fault, if I had told you that those tests were from me, none of that would have happened, now our baby is dead because of my stubbornness and my desire to make you also feel the hurt that I feel
Gianni: you had a right to feel how you felt about me, but I also felt bad and guilty about what happened with your sister, if I could have stopped my dad from having a relationship with her she would be alive right now
Me: why did you give her money to get away from your father, and why did you treat us with such disgust that day then?
Gianni: I knew that my father had left him with nothing that you were short of money, which is why I offered you this money today, but it was impossible for me to discredit my father in front of you
Me: I didn't see it that way
Gianni: If you still want me I promise to do everything to make you happy for the rest of your life, I know I can't erase everything that happened but at least I'll make sure the tears of sadness never fall from those pretty eyes again
Me: I'm also tired of feeling all this hate, emotionally drained
Gianni says nothing more but kisses me passionately and I let myself go by the intoxication of these sweet kisses...
