THIRD PERSON POV CONT: 'Mom you gonna be fine, just stay strong for me and come back to me please' Crystal says with a lot of emotions. 'I am going to be fine sweet heart' Rhea tries to assure her daughter. 'Wait please let me hold her before you take her in' she told the nurses who was rolling her mom into the operating room. 'Okay' one of the nurse replied with a smile. 'Sweetie, its gonna be fine . Am going to be fine' Rhea could sense her daughter's fear but there was nothing she could do but to assure her of her safety. 'I love you mom, and i will her waiting for you okay' Crystal replied with a kiss on her mom's fore head. 'If you are this worried about me then am not sure i want to be operated anymore' Rhea says trying to lighten the mood. Crystal couldn't help but smile, 'Am trying to be not worried for you mom, you know that' Crystal answered. 'Don't worry ma'am am here to make sure she isn't going worry herself to death' a masculine voice says from behind. Crystal heart skipped a beat because of that voice. She turns around to find herself staring at his masculine chest, she slowly raises her head to see his face and she found him looking at her with keenness. He inhales her scent and smirk, she steps back and breathes in. Rhea could see the both of them and she could tell what was going on between them. He looked really familiar Rhea thought. 'Ehmmm' Rhea cleared her throat interrupting the intense stare this strange guy and her daughter were having, even the nurses giggled seeing them like that. 'So......' she continued with a smile. 'Good afternoon' Jake walked to Rhea's bed, 'am Jake Michealson' he said. 'Hi dear' she replied. Rhea looked questioning at her daughter, Crystal quickly composes herself. 'Jake what are you doing here' she asks him. He looks at her, smiles as he replies 'i am here to support my fiancee' he slips a diamond ring in her finger without anyone noticing him do it. She looks at him and he smiles at her. 'Mom this is Jake, my fiance' she announces to her mom. 'Oh' Rhea looks at the both of them and smiled 'lets talk after this' she points her bed. Crystal chuckles 'okay mom, i love you' she hugs her mom lightly. 'I love you too, and Jake take care of her' she says as she is being rolled into the operating.  'You good?' Jake asked as he notices her mood change. 'Yeah, am good' she sniffs, 'why are you here Jake?' she suddenly ask. Jake gently pulls her to the near by seat 'you need anything' he asked. 'No i don't, but really why did you come? i thought we agreed i was going to meet your son tomorrow' she asked. 'Is it a crime to be supportive to the woman i want to be married to? well if you insist on knowing, i came to tell you our wedding will hold next week and you need to sign that you will be married to me for five years before thinking of divorcing me, i wouldn't want to clear your bills and you file for a divorce five months later' he answered. Crystal couldn't believe it, how the h*ll did he think she could do that and a quick wedding? she was not going to let this man talk ill about her intentions and have no right to make decisions on behalf of the both of them.  'Who do you think you are? you came here to put a ring on my finger like i don't have a choice, you tell me we are gonna get married next and you insult my integrity!!!!!!!! you know what, you ain't welcome here and take your stupid ring with you' she pulls the ring out of her fingers and hands it to him 'the wedding is off' she says with anger. Jake stands up and looks at the ring she is handing him and smirks, Crystal wishes she could wipe that smirk off his face with her hands. 'Unfortunately for you miss Crystal, you can't call off the wedding' he says looking at her face. 'Say who? i can call it off Mr Jake' she answers putting her hands on her waist. 'Yes you can if you pay me the money you and your family owes me by tonight' he smirks as he see the change on her face, 'and if you can't pay then i will have no choice but to put you and your mother behind bars, am sure they have good medical treatment there' he looks at her and lowers his head to speak in her ears, 'says me baby' he whispers and walks out. Crystal stood as she watches him leave, what was she thinking when she accepted to be his wife and now she has no say in the affairs of the both of them. What is she going to do now she thought, she didn't have the money to pay and she wasn't going to let her mom go to jail for her own mistake. 'He is such an arrogant b*stard' she cursed out. She wanted to cry and scream but she knew she had to be strong for her mom and this was a hospital.  She sunk into her previous seat and inhaled, she wasn't ready to be remoted and told what to do, this wasn't the life she had planned for herself if she was to get married not that she had ever given it a thought to get married now but still this was not what she wanted. She wanted the kind of love and respect her dad and step mom shared, they were so so perfect and happy, her thoughts made her cry silently and wished her dad could come back and just say he was fine and everything would go back perfect. If her dad was here then she wouldn't have this many problems in life but he wasn't and she had to  deal with it.
