4 4. Sorry

"Is it because you pity me?" Toris looks down and said, "No. I'm the same as you. Want to find justice for them." She looks at Toris. "Don't you hate me?" "I --"

Janie looks away. "Please leave. I want to be alone." Toris nods and left the room. Janie closes her eyes and was fallen asleep.

[Flashback]

Jenny and Janie are best pals ever since Janie saved Jenny from some lunatics. Jenny thought Janie was very cool when she kicks those lunatics' butts. Ever since then, Jenny always stick to Janie like glue. Janie was annoyed but she had fun teasing Jenny.

Jenny the said out of the blue, "You're really the type that my brother would love to pursue." "What?" "My brother, Toris, haven't been with a girl for a long time. Most girls throws themselves at him which annoys him but if it was you. I think he would fall for you." Jenny smiles cheekily. Janie smiles and smacks her on the head. "OW!" "Seriously that brain of yours."

One day, Janie sees Jenny with one man wearing a black suit. "My Lady. Your mother is worried about you." "I'm fine. No need to spy on me." "You should be careful. Many people wants--" She covers her ears. "Blah blah blah. I already know. No need to repeat those words."

(She's from a rich family.)

Janie then shows herself. "Hey, Jenny." Jenny turns around and sees Janie. Janie just smiles and waves. Jenny turns to the butler. "Go away right now. I'm fine." Jenny then run towards Janie and links arm with her. Janie asked, "Who's that?" Jenny replies, "Ah..they're lost so...I told them where to go. That's all." "Ah I see."

Days turns to months, Jenny keeps on hanging around Janie and her boys. Janie then told Jenny to follow her to the rooftop. Jenny wasn't sure what Janie wants to talk about. As soon as she reach the rooftop. Janie said, "...I'm an orphan. My mother abandoned me when I was young. She never came back for me like she promised. A woman adopted me a few years after that. I thought I gain a mother and place where I can belong. But...I was wrong."

"Why? What happen?" Janie looks at Jenny. "Once I turned 12 years old, she sold me to brothel. Those men didn't laid a hand on me. They feel sorry for me. One day, a man shows up and laid a hand on me. He....raped me. I feel disgusted. Without thinking, I killed him while he's still in his sleep. They told me to run. One of the women helped me escaped. She soon was arrested and was beheaded."

She looks at the sunset. "That time. I really hate people who are born with a silver spoon." She then looks at Jenny. "You're...one of those people with the silver spoon." Jenny was shocked. "W-What are you talking about? Me? Pshh." Jenny laughs it out. Janie was serious.

"Please leave here." "Janie." She looks at Jenny. "You're no longer one of us." "I..." "I gave you plenty of chances to speak the truth. Instead, you stick with the lies. Leave." Janie head back inside. Jenny stood there, biting her lower lip. "..I didn't mean to...I just want to be normal for once."

Few days later, Janie and her boys haven't seen Jenny. "Boss." Janie looks up and it was Jimbo. "...Umm...Where's Jenny? Is she okay?"

Janie looks over the documents and said, "Jenny won't ever step in here." "Why?" "She's the daughter of the Prime Minister." "EHH?!" The boys were shocked. She glares at the boys. "From now on, I forbid you guys say her name. Understand?" They nod. "Good. Go back to work." They dash out and continue to work.

One night, Janie was heading home and she sees a figure in front of her. It was no other than Jenny. Janie ignores her. "Janie. I need help. Please." Janie notices Jenny's stomach got bigger. She sighs. (Cannot believe I'm doing this..)

[Janie's apartment]

She sets warm coffee for Jenny. "Thanks." Janie sat down and said, "What do you want from me?" "I know you forbid me to come but I didn't know what to do." "You have your family." "Oh no no no. My father is going to kill me." "Talk." "Right. You see...I'm in love..." "Jenny." "Fine. He and I are in love and I got pregnant." "He?" "....He's the son of your enemy." Janie's eyes widened and turns to Jenny.

"Janie. Look. We really love each other." "Unbelievable." "Janie." Janie walks out of the apartment. She then noticed someone was behind the pillar. "Come out or I'll shoot you." The man puts both of his hands up in the air. "D-don't shoot." He revealed himself. She mumbles, "You must be kidding me."

The man was Stan Wolff, the son of Janie's enemy aka father of Jenny's child. He said, nervously, "..Hi.."

...

Her head lean against her hand, she couldn't believe what was going on. Stan and Jenny were sitting next to each other. "So...let me get this straight...you two fell in love and done it since day 1.." She pointed at Jenny, "You got pregnant and cut ties with your family." Then she pointed at Stan, "You...ran away from home. Am I right?"

Both of them nod at the same time. "ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!!!" Janie yells at them. "It's your problem, figure it out yourself." Stan said, "But...if father knew Jenny is carrying my child...father wouldn't accept it." "Boo hoo." Jenny said, "Janie, please. You got to help us." She furrowed her brows.

She groans, "Urgghhh. Fine." Both of them lightens up. Janie crossed her arms. "...When are you due?" "Two months from now." Janie nods. "I'll make an arrangements for you three." "Thanks Janie." "Hmph." Janie turns around and left.

Stan said, "Wow. I didn't think she would help us." Jenny smiles, "Janie is a good person." Stan hugs Jenny and his child. "I'll protect you two." "Mm."

Who knew Jenny and the child will be gone too soon. Jenny was captured by Stan's father. Janie didn't bring any back up, she head there to get Jenny back. She was surrounding by men. Tehy were too strong for her to handle. She was beaten up to death. She was covered in cuts and bruises. "JANIE!!" Jenny was desperately calling out for Janie who was laying on the ground, not moving an inch. Jenny was in tears.

One of the men grab Janie by the throat and demands her to tell where is Stan. Stan shows up, panting. "LET THEM GO!" Janie was toss on the ground. "Janie!!" Jenny run towards Janie and holds her in her arms. Jenny shook Janie but Janie couldn't open her eyes. "Open your eyes, Janie! Janie!"

"Father. She's the woman I love." "Are you blind?" "No matter what you say. You cannot tear us apart. She's carrying my child." Stan's father's anger grew. "Beat them to death!" "Father!" "Take my son and lock him up." "Jenny!" Stan tries to reach for Jenny but the men grabs him and took him away.

Janie slowly opens her eyes and notices a man behind Jenny had a wooden stick targeting Jenny. She grabs Jenny and covers her by taking the blow. Janie got hit a bunch of times. Jenny cries, "Stop. Stop. You're hurting her." (Janie: No matter what, I will protect them at all cost. Even if it cost my life for it...)

Each men takes turns beating Janie. Blood drips down. The man swing the stick, Janie caught it and beat them with it. One of the men takes out a gun and aim at Janie. Jenny saw it and run towards Janie. "Janie!!" BANG! BANG!

Jenny's body then fallen onto the ground. Janie's eyes widened. (J-Jenny...) Janie then got upset. She then beat every single men. They were no match for Janie. Janie staggers and walks up to Jenny. She kneeled down and pulls Jenny into her arms. "Jenny. Jenny" Janie shook Jenny. "Jenny." Jenny slowly opens her eyes.

She smiles, "...W-we were going to a-ask you to be o-our child's godmother..." Tears slide down her cheek. Jenny's hand reach out and wipe the tears on Janie's face. "I...d-don't regret meeting you o-or Stan. T-tell Stan that I-I love him very m-much." Her hand then lose its strength, fell down on the ground. "Jenny?" Janie sniffs. "Jenny? Jenny?"

She kept shaking Jenny but Jenny was dead gone. "JENNY!!!!"

...

Stan was able to escape from his men and heads back out to see Jenny. BANG! BANG! His eyes widened as soon as he sees the love of his life fell onto the ground. "...Jenny..." He dropped onto his knees. "....Jenny..."

Stan then noticed the gun on the ground. He takes it and aim to his head. (Wherever you go, I'll be there...Jenny..) He pulls the trigger. His grip loosen and he falls down on the ground. "Stan!" "Master Stan!"

His father holds onto his son. "Stan. For a woman, you're willing to throw away your life like that?" "Master." One of his men gestures him to look behind. He turns and sees Janie carrying Jenny. "Because of your greediness, you killed your son and the 2 love of his life. If you accepted her then he wouldn't taken over his life." She sets Jenny down on the ground a few inches away from Stan.

"If you really love your son, you should bury them together." Janie turns around and left the scene. Janie returns to her place. She then calls Jimbo. "Boss?" "Find me a dead body." "What?" "I said, find me a dead body. Make sure its a woman. No question asked."

Later that day, Jimbo comes with a dead body. She then puts in the car with Jenny's identification and her favorite bracelet from her mother. Janie then blow up the car as if there's an accident. "Jimbo. Call the cops." "Yes."

[Present]

Janie gasped. She immediately sits up and pants heavily. She checks her surrounding and sighs in relief. (Good. I'm at the hospital..) She gets out of the bed and stands by the window. Janie said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Jenny. It's my fault. I shouldn't driven you out."
