"I have been waiting for you, Mr.Romano,"
Henry said from inside the bar. "Your wait is over, Henry," Alessandro remarked.
"Why am I locked up?" Henry questioned Alessandro. "You must be well aware of that Henry, you
cheated me." Alessandro gritted his teeth.
"Did I? We both know you can take that
cheap land in a blink if you want without
dragging me behind the bar, then you tell me
why am I here?" Henry questioned again.
"I can't resist cheaters in front of me Henry
and you not my friend tried to trap me with
that second-" Alessandro paused. "You
blackmailed Bianca." He stated.
"I knew it," Henry smirked. "Even you could not resist her charm, could you? Beautiful, curvy, innocent... virgin. How I wish I could
pop her peach and ride it until she begs-"
Instantly Alessandro held Henry's collar, "You bastard, how dare you utter a word
on her dignity, she is a woman to be
worshipped. I will kill you, you rascal."
Alessandro punched him anyway.
Within a second policemen came and
dragged Alessandro away from Henry. "Let
me go I will kill him."
With that Henry started laughing hard, "This is what Bianca make you do. She
trapped you too. First she acts innocent then
she plays hard to get and you are also her
victim." Henry laughed.
"You-" Alessandro was cut off with the loud
vibration inside his pocket. It read Darren as
an incoming call.
"What?" Alessandro roared in anger.
"Bianca-"
"What happened to her?" Alessandro
became restless.
"Zina fainted an hour ago and is inside ICU,
since then Bianca has been crying," Darren
reported.
"I'm on my way." Alessandro cut the call and
turned to exit just to cut off by Henry.
"Running to precious Bianca? Warn her I
will see her soon and snatch her away from
you." Henry laughed evilly.
Alessandro wanted to punch him one more
time but he had to be with Bianca so he
exited the police station with a clenched fist
and a sour mood. Nobody could snatch his
Bianca away from him, he won't let anybody
to do so.
Alessandro reached the hospital in less than
twenty minutes and found Roma, Darren,
some kids from orphanage and Bianca. She
was sitting at the corner and wiping her
tears continuously.
Watching her in such a condition his
heartfelt cold and had problem in breathing.
Was it always this hard to look someone at misery? Or is it because it was Bianca that was crying? His life.
Slowly he walked near Bianca and sat beside her. "Hey, What happened?" He whispered
slowly, not to startle her.
But to his surprise she threw her arms
on him and cried bitterly. "She-will- die."
Bianca muffled on his chest.
"Nothing will happen to her, I promise,"
Alessandro promised her to which Bianca
looked above at his face with wide eyes in
search of hope and she could not believe he
held determination to bring the world on her
feet if she said so.
She wiped her tears to read him properly and asked him again, "promise?" "I promise you, nothing will happen to her
alright? Now you have to be strong for
everyone, okay?" He caressed her head and
she nodded but rested her head back on his
chest in search of warmth.
Soon she fell asleep in his arms and that
did not go unseen by everybody around
them. Roma had relaxed posture with a
hidden smile, Darren was relieved and somewhat surprised that his cold-hearted friend calmed the crying machine, doctors and nurses around them watched them in perplexed and lastly Alessandro was least affected by the looks he was getting. He had to protect his life and her people and could not let ger shed a tear anymore.
With one free hand he messaged all the surgeons, cardiologist and other best doctors of his hospital for a meeting. In less than
ten minutes everyone was sitting inside
the meeting hall and not to mention he had
Bianca with him on his lap soundly asleep.
Everyone had their eyes wide and mouth open but nobody dared to question him. Soon Alessandro mentioned his agenda to hold the meeting and Darren showed them the reports and history of Zina. The doctors suggested for the earliest surgery with the best team they could provide to which Alessandro nodded and gave them a green signal and dismissed them.
"You are truly a log while sleeping, but cute log." Alessandro chuckled watching her sleep in a awe for such a long time
