Luca POV

I scan the park on any presence of dogs , because she would literally run if she sees one.

I check my watch.
Luca stop being impatient. She said she would come.

We are not able to spend time with each other because we have work from both sides. So I planned a picnic .

Yeah me Luca Knight going on a picnic.
Dean would have laughed if he got to know.
He already says that I am wrapped around her finger.
Actually I don't care .
She owns me .
Angel had changed me like anything. And I like this new Luca.

Suddenly someone taps me from behind it's baby girl.
I hug her.

"I missed you "

" Luca you just saw me in the morning" she shaked her head.

"That's like hours before " she chuckles.

"Come " I  lead her to our picnic spot and she looks at me in shock.

I scratch the back of my neck nervously.

"You made this " she asks.

"Yeah..."
She had her mouth open.

Shit shit shit.
I regret not listening to the whole video on how to prepare for a picnic .

"Oh my god it looks beautiful Luca. Wow I love it." She says and hugs me.
Woah!

She just give me a heartache before.

She kisses my cheek and we both sit there and talk about random things.

I comb her hair behind.

"You are shrinking baby" I  said frowning.

She facepalmed and looked at me.

"Its the same about you" I looked at her.

"You are losing weight"

"That's not a big thing" and I regretted saying it.
She glared at me.

"Luca. Relationship goes both ways. It's not just you caring about me. I notice all things about you too" she sighed.

"Skipping lunch huh!?" She picked the picnic basket .

"No . Never why woul- I had meetings last week and eating was a huge task " I spilled the tea as soon as she looked at me.
It wasn't a glare but I couldn't lie at her.

She has me wrapped on her finger.

She pushed me a plate full of food.

Suddenly we heard a whimpering sound.

A girl was crying and looking everywhere for someone.

Angel walks towards her.
"What happened baby"
"M-my mumma" she said and cried.
"Hey baby. You are good girl right " and the kid nodded.

Angel wiped her tears and held her face on Angel's hands.

"Mummy is coming , so don't cry ."she hugged her .

I noticed that the kid had a bag and I took it from her and checked if there was any number and thankfully there was

I dialed that number.

The girl found her mother and she ran and hugged her. Her mom thanked Angel.
She didn't reply but smiled weakly and the lady went. I look at Angel's face that's when I see tears falling .

I rushed towards her.

"Angel what happened why are you crying " I ask putting her head on my hands.
She looked at me and her tears were rolling.
She hugged me.

"I saw me through her " she whispered.

"I don't get you "

"I was like her when I was a kid. I would wait everyday on the orphanage's footstep for my parents , but they never came. And  I used to feel so dejected and when  many of them were reunited with their family.... I used to be that only girl who stared at them waiting for her chance...." she says putting her head on my shoulder. .

I hugged her .

"Baby....They have lost a beautiful gift from god. And its their fault ,not yours" I say wiping her tears .
She kept her head on my chest.

We walked to the bench and she stayed on my shoulder.

Why would someone even do this to their own kid!?

"Angel" I called and I got no response.
My heart started beating so fast , I sighed. She slept .

I carried her on my arms and kept her on the passenger seat. I went back to the park and grabbed our things.

It pained me to see her like this.
She always keeps a happy face and  is hurt inside.

As soon as we reached home, I carried her to our room and she cuddled the pillow.

I go downstairs and make a call.
" I need you to gather information about Angel's biological parents"

"Yes sir " my private investigator replied.

I need to find them and know why they left her in this situation.
Angel has the right to know it.

I went back upstairs and removed my tshirt and cuddled with her. I looked at her the whole night and didn't even sleep a wink.

She is hurt and that scar has been there since her childhood.

Angel woke up the next day as if nothing happened. But I know her ,she is trying to forget it. And I didn't go and dig about it more.

We told our byes and went for work .

I couldn't concentrate on work. I shut down my laptop and pulled my hair in frustration.

My baby girl was hurting inside which means I am also hurting.

I close my eyes and hear a vibration.
My phone was ringing.

" Sir I have found the orphanage address. I will find the details soon ." My private detective said.

" Fine. Send me the orphanage address "

"Yes sir "

I go through her details and everything is blank.

I clench my fists and my phone starts to vibrate again .

Its Dean

"Luca you need to come right jow" there was commotion and I stood up up fast.

"What happened!? Is something wrong with Angel? Is she fine did she-"

" Matt's dad is here "

I didn't listen to the further details because I was freaking furious.
His nerve though.

I grabbed my keys and walked off.
I can't believe his temerity.

I rush to Angel's office and open the door in haste.

"What a great surprise Mr. Morgan"
He looks at me.

"Luca we can compromise about this. I- I know that my son did wrong-" I cut off him

"Wrong??!! Seriously. You just feel it wrong. Wow "

I walk closer to him
"Leave! Right now" I glare at him

I look towards Angel and she was shaking.

"That son of yours is never going to get out"

"Luca ,please listen to me. I haven't come here for a fight or anything. I just want to make things right "

" Well then everything is right , right now"

I walk towards Angel and hug her. She cries in my chest .

I angrily look towards Mr. Morgan, he sighs and then leaves.
"Nothing happened. Nothing. "

I say trying to stop her from crying.

I hold her face on my hands.

" Baby girl why are you crying. Your a strong woman and I know that. You shouldn't let your tears fall for these type of people "
I wipe it.

I grab her things and carry her bridal style. She doesn't object and puts her face on my chest.



I can't believe his guts.

I walk to Dean's cabin

"She is taking a leave "
He nods.
"Is she okay"
I nod.
And I take her to my car with all the staffs staring at us.
And I couldn't care less.

She has been sleeping. And I didn't disturb her. A lot has already happened to her. My phone starts ringing. I silence it and look behind. She was sleeping soundly.
I walk out with my phone.

"How is she ??" Dean asked concernly

I sighed.

"She is sleeping now."

"Luca I swear I do not know how he got in , in the first place. The receptionist himself see him."

"If I ever see that man again , I am fucking filing a case against him. Then both father and son can spend quality time in the bars." 
I was furious .

"I know. And let her take a leave. She has already went through a lot in this short
span "

I sigh

I hear a commotion.

"Dude I guess she is awake . I am hanging the call"

I hang the phone and see her in the balcony.
I go from behind and hug her.
She puts her head on my chest.
We don't talk anything.

We stay like that for a while.
She unhugs me and looks at me and roll up her sleeve.
"I am not gonna go to that same process again. Not anymore"
I look at her confused.

"I am not gonna cry not gonna have a sad face. I am done with it. I hate it since childhood. First of all what will you get if you cry. Nothing. Nothing will come right. So why crying and second by crying we are wasting a lot of water those tears are so much water..." She starts rambling.

I smile.
My baby girl's back .
I peck her.

And she continuous to ramble bullshit.
