HOSPITAL***
Paige opens her eyes and Carding immediately hugs her tightly.
“I’m glad you’re awake Paige. I almost went insane thinking something bad might happen to you” Carding still hugging her.
Paige broke the hug and looks at him, caressing his face.
“Are you really here with me?” She asked and Carding nods his head.
“What happened Carding? I was afraid, because I was scared I won’t find you beside me if I wake up” Paige said.
Carding sighs and sits beside her on the bed.
“I did something ho.rrible”
“Something horrible? Like what Carding?” Paige asked.
“I didn’t mean to do it, Anger erupted inside of me when I saw you unconscious and I st.abbed my Dad” Carding said.
“Is he Dead?”
“I don’t know Paige. After he loss consciousness, I quickly rushed down here with you, Cuz I was afraid of losing you. I’m sorry”.
“Why’re you saying sorry Carding?”
“Because you fell in love with someone like me, you have gone through so much pains. I’m so sorry Paige. I am sorry for dragging you into my sad life” Carding said with watery eyes.
Paige cupped his face. “Look at me” She said when Carding was just dabbing his head.
Carding slowly looks at her, with eyes filled with pains and emotions.
“Is not your fault that you have a meanie man as your dad and isn’t your fault that we’re going through this sht.
This is just a test on our love for each other, we just have to stay strong and never give up on our love for each other” Paige said.
Carding held her hand that were still on our face.
“Promise that no matter what happens, you won’t break up with me. I won’t be able to take it Paige.
I just love you so much and is driving me nuts every single day. Promise me you won’t break up with me no matter what my dad does to you” Carding said allowing his tears to fall down his eyes.
Paige smiles sadly and use her thumb to clean his tears.
“I won’t Carding and that’s a promise. I won’t ever let your dad be the reason why we have to break up” She said.
“Thank you so much Paige. I love you so much”
“I love you too Carding”.
Carding kss her lightly, before pulling into a hug. Paige hugs him back and they stayed that way, wishing they were the only ones living on earth, so that they won’t have to go through the pains they’re feeling right now.

THE CASTILLO’S HOUSE***
“Will my husband be all right?” Helena asked worriedly, while Greg pats her back, obviously trying to calm her down.
“Yes he’ll. Thankfully the bvllet didn’t get deep inside his leg, which means in a couple of days he’ll be back to his feet” The doctor said.
Helena looks at Edward who was sleeping and covers him with the duvet. The three of them left the room.
“Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate” Greg said.
“Is nothing Greg, I’ll be back tomorrow to check up on him”.
Greg nods his head in agreement and the doctor left.
“Don’t worry mom, Dad is going to be fine” Greg said.
“I know that son, is just I’m sad seeing him in this state. Have you tried calling Paige?” She asked.
“Yes I did, but is not going through. Desiree said she talked to her earlier, but can’t reach her anymore after Informing her that Vince will be at the train station”.
Helena sighs sadly.
“If something bad happens to Paige, I won’t be able to forgive myself. Maybe if I haven’t agree to them eloping, this won’t have happened, is all my fault” Helena said crying.
“Stop crying Mom. Is not your fault, you did what you had to do because you love Paige and wants her to be happy” Greg said.
“Mom” Paige said when she enters the house.
Helena quickly rushed to her, hugging her so tightly.
“Thank God you’re okay Paige. I thought something bad happened to you” Helena said.
“I’m fine Mom” Paige said.
Helena broke the hug and that was when she saw the bandage on her forehead.
“W-what happen to you Paige?”
“Don’t worry about me mom. Is just a little injury I got from Vince” Paige said and Carding enters the house.
Helena went to him and sI.aps him so hard on the face.
“Mom!!” Both Greg and Paige said at once.
“You still have the nerves to show up here after what your dad did. How dare you Carding!!! How dare you show your face here!!!” Helena yells at him angrily.
“I’m sorry Aunt” Carding apologize.
“Sorry? Sorry!!! Will your sorry mend everything that has happened. Look at Paige, she sustained an injury because of your dad!!! And just because I was trying to protect you, my husband got s.hot by that stupid father of yours!!!”
Paige’s eyes widened, when she heard Helen’s last statement.
“W-what? Dad was short?”
“Yes Paige. Carding’s dad shot him when we refused to tell him where you both were” Greg said.
“Where is dad? I have to see him” Paige said as tears falls down her eyes.
“He’s in his room” Greg said.
Paige quickly rushed to Edward’s room and she broke into tears seeing her dad’s shot leg.
“Dad, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry” Paige said crying and her cry woke Edward up.
“Paige”.
“Yes Dad. Is me Paige, I’m sorry you got shot because of me. I’m so sorry” Paige said crying, hugging her dad.
“Is not your fault Paige. So please don’t blame yourself” Edward said weakly.
Paige broke the hug. “Do you feel lots of pains? Should I take you to the hospital?” Paige asked worriedly.
“No don’t bother Paige. I’m fine. There’s something I want to tell you. I thought I won’t be given the chance to tell you if peradventure I die, But I guess the heavens has given me a second chance to tell you the truth” Edward said.
“What truth Edward?” Helena asked.
“Well I… I… You…” Edward stuttered between pains.
“Save it dad. You can tell me all about it when you get better” Paige said hugging him again.
“I’m glad you’re all right Paige” Edward said and more tears falls down Paige’s eyes.
Feeling guilty, Carding couldn’t watch the scence anymore, so he decided to leave. Greg saw him leaving and went after him.
“Carding”
Carding cleans his tears, before turning to face him.
“Yes Greg”
“Where’re you going?” He asked.
“I don’t know”
“You don’t know and yet you’re leaving?”.
“Your mom is right Greg, is all my fault. I shouldn’t show my face to you all after what my Dad did. I feel so guilty right now and I don’t even know how to face you all” Carding said crying.
“Is not your fault Carding. You didn’t wish to be Vince’s son, so Why blame yourself for what happened”.
“But your mom…..”
“She’s just angry. I’m sure she going to go back to herself when she has finally calms down. Let’s go back to the house, you need to rest”.
“But..”
“Just shut up and come with me” Greg said, Carding went mute and Greg smiles.
He pats Carding and said “Don’t be filled with guilt alright, Paige will be mad if she discovers you’re pinning the blame on yourself, Or do you want her to get mad”.
Carding quickly shakes his head.
“So wipe those tears off and let’s go back to the house together”.
Carding cleans his tears and they went back to the house, together.
