Chapter 67
Lucelia hugs me tightly, I always need that support, "I understand you, believe me, I shouldn't have told you those things knowing that you do everything for your children, you are a woman to be admired, anyone your age would have gone crazy and for fear of going on alone with children would have stayed with that bastard," she turns away from me and looks into my eyes while wiping my tears, “you will come out of this and the beast is going to hit the ground hard when he knows the great woman he lost, I'm here to support you Okay?” I smile through tears.
"God gave me a warrior for a daughter," my mother says proudly.
"I learned everything from you mom, if you have been able to be with me being a woman without a home and without a family, how could I not be able to be with so much support and my children having a father? In this life you have to be strong, there is no other way,” calming down and stopping to think about all the disaster I'm living through, we tried to good times.

"Are you not sleeping?" Asks my sun, taking my son from my hands. "You have just bathed, we have given you food and still you do not surrender to Morpheus, you have guts."
I laugh, "I just don't understand how my son can be so hard to sleep, but my relief is that he falls asleep early and I can rest after a day with him." I sit on the couch and take a sip of my milk.
“We have a video call,” Lucelia brings me my laptop, when I take it I see my friends.
"Buona notte" greets Mica, my sun runs and sets next to me.
"Come on, everyone is there. Can't you live without my wonder anymore?” Everyone rolls their eyes at what Fran says.
"I'm clearly in love with you" Steve speaks in Spanish, addressing Fran, “here she would be a thousand times better by my side,” I sigh and bite my lip, “damn I gave everything for her. Now what? Look how she is thin and suffering,” I look at my mother who listens to everything just like Lucelia.
"Steve please," I whispered with tears in my eyes.
"It's no use making yourself like this," his eyes are full of fury.
"Come on friend," Roderick tries to calm him down, “you said you were going to hold back, she needs support, she doesn't need you to throw everything on her face." My sun hugs me and kisses my head.
"Marrone ... Baby ... hello ..." Mica greets my son while he smiles, my son starts to laugh as if it were a joke, “but how beautiful and big he is ... Olethea you must bring him to Italy as soon as possible,” I nod my head without speaking, I can't, Steve's behavior hurts me, I know that with him maybe I wouldn't have suffered so much, but I couldn't do that to him, I loved Kahin despite everything.
"That boy is handsome," Fátima shouts as always, fading the discomfort, "I'm going to freeze for you." My son doesn't stop laughing, he recognizes her, “I know, a female penco like me is what you need in your life," she winks at my son.
"Hey, don't get involve with my son, I won't let you, you're not good for anyone's health" I look at her with warning, my friend starts laughing.
“I still don't know how by mistake she went to Panama and left me alone,” Mica complains, “she left me crying and when she came back, what do you think? She came to my house to seduce me and I let myself be seduced as the fool that I am,” she rolls her eyes, my sun laughs, he lived it all.
"With you there is no remedy Micaela, you must wake up, Fatima is a damn sick woman," I said.
The aforementioned looks at me offended, "I'm not to blamed for being irresistible, I also love my puritan," she winks at me, I can't help but laugh, Steve gets out of the call which makes me feel a bit bad.
“Roderick, Micaela, this is my mother and my sister-in-law,” the two of them approach my sun and me to greet my friends.
"Fuck ..." hearing the deafening growl that my sun gives startles me, I take the baby from his arms just as he was losing his balance. Scared I put my son on the floor.
"Fran, what's wrong?" Lucelia asked worriedly, his face is full of pain, his gesture is so great that even I feel what he does.
"Damn it man," cries Fatima, my sun sets on the floor and begins to vomit.
"Oh God Fran ..." I shout approaching him "sweetheart speaks" despair does not take long, when I see him fall unconscious I feel that the world is coming upon me.
"Marilí take my daughter, Camilla help me take him to the car," shouts Lucelia trembling. I take the baby in my arms and I see them leaving almost dragging Francesco, when my mother enters I give the baby to her.
"I'm not going to stay here, take care of them, mom." Without waiting for an answer, I ran out of the house barefoot, Lucelia was about to start, I make her stop and I get into the passenger seat to hold my sun. "What's wrong Lucelia? Why don't he wake up?” I start screaming, this is not normal and I have a bad feeling.
"He has been having a headache all morning, but he promised me he was fine."
I glare at her, “why didn't you tell me? You should have told me! You didn't have to keep quiet,” I know it's not her fault, but fear has gotten hold of me.
"I didn't think it was necessary, you have your problems," she yells back accelerating.
"He is also my problem and you know it, you can be his wife but I am his friend" I try to wake him up and he does not react, “my sun please talk to me awake,” I shout as if that is going to wake him up.
When we get to the hospital where he treats himself, Lucelia runs in search of a doctor, when they come for him they take him away and I go after them, I can't leave him alone, I want to be there when he wakes up.
"You can't come in, Marilí" Lucelia takes my arm tightly and speaks to me harshly, starting to cry I hug her.
"I can't lose him Lucy, I'm not ready yet."
She starts to cry but tries to be strong, “stop crying because that hurts the babies, he'll be fine ...he'll be fine," she whispers to reassure me, but I can't do it.
The hours pass and they do not give us news of my sun, despair and anguish filled me, I do not stop vomiting and the headache almost wants to break me.
“Marilí Cook,” calls the doctor, with the help of Lucy I get up, now I don't seem so good being the one who is in all of Francesco's medical papers, “come with me please,” without letting go of Lucelia and shaking like a sheet of paper we entered a room, seeing my sun connected to so many devices makes me cry out in pain, Lucelia gasps while crying.
"Wonder," I hear him whisper, "you must do what you promised me," he asks, hearing that word shakes me, I look at the doctor holding my breath and tears.
“He has to be operated urgently, but he refuses to do it, given his condition we must turn to the person in charge, you have the last word, we sleep him or do the operation,” my heart beats with pain, I breathe but I don't feel the air reaching my lungs, my senses go numb.
"Wonder you have promised ... I don't want to suffer," his voice is weak. How could this happen from one moment to the next?
“Marilí no,” Lucelia forces me to look at her, but I only listen to her, my sight is lost, “you can't do this to Francesca and me, say that they operate on him, Marilí you must say that they operate on him. You can't kill him!” Tears run down my cheeks, I don't know what to do, I have the life of my sun in my hands, I don't want to lose him, but I made a promise to him.
"I'm sorry ... I'm very sorry," I look at the doctor, "operate him," I look at my sun, his face starts to change.
"You promised me ...”
"I should never have promised that, you have a lot to live for Fran, please fight, I want you to fight and stay alive."
Lucelia pushes me away and kisses him on the lips, "I'll be waiting to see those eyes that I love so much, your daughter and I will be waiting for you, your wonder awaits you." We said goodbye to him, my sun didn't give me a single glance, he didn’t say a single thing to us.
