?Elva’s POV ?

I sat beside Mig on the bed, he’s off the IV fluid now.
He’s sitting up on the bed after eating the breakfast I went home to prepare.

“Doc Steph said you are fit to be discharged soon” I said to him.

“Really?”
“Yeah”
“Woah, finally. I can’t wait to go home..and..?”
” What?” I asked.
“I heard you fought some lady yesterday” He said.

“Yeah that was Miranda, the lady who normally takes over my shift,i found out she has been starving the kids and confronted her. She slapped me and i retaliated” I narrated.

Mig suddenly bursted out laughing and i smiled.
“What’s funny?” I asked.
“Never mind” he said.

“Com’on tell me!” I said and we heard the door open.
Fleur walked in looking exhausted.
“How’s Daisy?” Mig and i asked together.

Fleur had told us she was brought to the hospital soaked in bl©©d, they’ve been attending to her since yesterday.

“She’s okay..for now but she’s being placed on oxygen and i really hope she survives it” Fleur said sadly.

“What was the cause of it ?” Mig asked worriedly.
“She pulled out a gun from the police’s hand and shot herself twice in the stomach”
“What!” We exclaimed.

“Yeah..I really hope she survives it , cause one of the bullet hit her right on the kidney “Fleur said, shaking her head sadly.
What…!

” Oh my God!”Mig exclaimed, looking more worried.
“Can we go see her now?” I asked.
“No we will all go see her later,she needs to rest now” Fleur said.

“Why the hell would she do that?” Mig said and i observed how worried he is.

“She probably felt guilty about shooting you and she did the same to herself to make it equal” I suggested sadly..

I really felt for Daisy even with all she did,i don’t and will never wish her death.
I very much hope she survives.

“She shouldn’t have tried that” Mig said.
“Well…let’s keep hoping she survives.. and i’m starving” Fleur said and i passed her her own share of sandwich and coffee, she muttered a thanks and started eating.
“I have to go check on the children” I said getting up.
“Okay”

I entered and met them on their beds playing silently.
They smiled on seeing me and rushed over to me.

“Elva” They called.
“How are you all?” I asked.
“We are fine Elva” They chorused.

“I hope you’ve all had breakfast?”
“Yes Elva…the cook served us all” Dan said fluently and i smiled.

I so much love this little boy.
“Okay…I came to check on you,so should i stay longer?” I asked already knowing their answer.
“Yes Yes yes yes” They chorused and i smiled.

“Ok then let me sit” I said and went to sit on the chair,they also hurried to their beds, sitting down quietly.

“Elva it’s been long you told us a story,can you tell us one now… Please” Mitch pleaded and the rest joined.

“Okay…okay..I will, and guess what?..I have an interesting story for you” I said.
“Yaaay” They said excitedly positioning themselves comfortably on the bed.
I smiled and began…

?Daisy’s POV?

My eyes flicked open and i gazed round slowly in pain,i felt some heat on my nose together with my mouth.

I gazed down with difficulty and saw an oxygen mask placed firmly on my nose. I blinked in surprise.

My eyes got clearer and i looked round and observed that I’m laying on an hospital bed.
I closed my eyes tightly trying to remember how i got here and..

It all came rushing to me.

I remembered it all..I had called a police officer to get me a glass cup of water and grabbed his gun in the process and shot myself twice in the stomach before i could have a rethink.

That actually brought me here,i had plan to escape from the hospital but i know with the intense pain I’m feeling right now that i can’t move an inch from here.
I feel so weak,i can’t move. I can only roll my eyes.

I suddenly had this bad feeling when i heard the door of my ward open followed by some suspicious footsteps.

I didn’t know who came in cause i can’t move nor turn.
My eyes widened in shock when i saw Sasha with Ryan.
I have a feeling she didn’t come here for good..
‘Who the hell allowed her in?’ I pondered scared.

“Hey Daisy” She said but i couldn’t respond,my mouth and nose are covered with oxygen mask.
“You this brat” She said slapping me.
“Boss sent you here to accomplish a mission but you ended up ruining it all,do you know the amount of wealth we would have amassed from those golds..but you just have to fall in love with some handsome guy who deceived you” Sasha yelled in a low tone.

It’s obvious she didn’t want anyone to suspect a thing going on here and that means she isn’t here for good.
My lips shook as i tried to speak.

“I’m sorry but i have to kill you as Boss ordered me to” She said and a tear roll down my cheek.

“Oh Lord, please forgive me of all my sins” I said inwardly when i saw her pull out a silencer from the khaki pants she wore.

I shut my eyes tightly and i suddenly felt her remove the oxygen mask.
I felt breathless, gasping hard for breathe.

“Rest in peace” She said before two bullets penetrated my chest.
They both hurried out.
I felt my body shook,with the bullets pain spreading deep into my heart.

I stiffled a cry and groaned in agony.
Bl©©d gushed out, immediately soaking the bedspread.
My body felt hot and numb, i smiled amidst tears.
I know i won’t survive this.
I’m actually getting the reward of my sins.
The pain I’m feeling now is deserved.

I saw two doctors rushed in looking shocked.
“What’s going on?..”
They were about to commence treatment on me but i stopped them.

“Ple-a-se ju-st g-et m-e Fl-eu-r,M-ig and El-v-a” I muttered, trembling.
One of them rushed out and returned later with the three of them.

They all rushed to me, looking at me with pity.
Mig held my hand and knelt down beside me, i can see his eyes already soaked with tears.

I looked over at Elva and Fleur who has started crying loudly.
I felt touched,i couldn’t believe they could cry for me considering the way i’ve acted towards them.

I’m ready to put things straight but i don’t have the chance anymore,i didn’t put things straight when i had the chance.

I..can’t endure the pain i’m feeling anymore,i have to ask for their forgiveness and tell Elva who she really is because i know i will never survive this.

“Mi-g,Fl-e-ur,El-v-a I’m sorry for all I’ve d-on-e to h-ur-t y-ou al-l p-le-as-e fo-r-gi-v-e m-e” I said weakly,i could feel the life seeping out of me gradually.

“Daisy I’ve forgiven you long ago, please just stay alive” Mig said trying hard to hold his tears but they came rolling down his cheeks.
“Daisy i forgive you, just hold on huh?” Elva said,cleaning her tears.

And to think i’ve always treated her like thrash..
“Daisy,i forgive you also and we all love you” Fleur said crying loudly.
She already figured out that I’m not gonna survive this.

I motioned for them to bring their hands closer and they did.

I held their hands in tears.
“Th-ank yo-u..i wi-sh i ha-d the ch-an-ce to s-et th-in-gs str-ai-gh-t” I mumbled and they all nodded.
No one could say anything without tears.

“Do-n’t cr-y f-or m-e,I’m n-ot wo-rt-h yo-u-r te-ar-s” I muttered with difficulty and held on their hands tighter.
I have to tell Elva about herself.
“E-lv-a” I called slowly.
“Huh?” She asked with drops of tears sliding down her cheeks.
“Yo-u ar-e..yo-u ar-e..Vi-n..Vi…” I muttered trying hard to complete my statement but i couldn’t..
My throat felt hooked and my mouth..numb.
I guess that’s the limit…there is nothing i can say or do anymore.

I gasp..

I smiled as i felt life slipped away from me finally.
My eyes shut..and i knew that was the end.

“Daisy!” I faintly heard them scream before i could hear nothing no more.
