Part 23

Everybody was breathing ... Another man was coming out of the house. Donari watched in hope of the vague figure.

"Kris," she shouted, rushing.

Let's get out again. And this time I survived ... On my hands I wore Thomas. I could not leave it inside. I took a few steps and fell to my knees.

"Christina, are you all right?" Asked Lozano.

I did not say anything to him.

"Chris," Dary called again and hugged me. He put his forehead against mine:

-You're living ...

I kissed her. I had no strength to say anything. The police called an ambulance.

"Thomas ... he's not doing well," I said through Dary's tears.

"He's strong, he'll be fine."

"Can you go?" Asked Lozano.

I got up. I saw Mark's burnt body and approached.

"It's over, Mark," I said, and went into the car.

"Even this animal did not deserve such a cruel end." I thought.

The ambulance came. The doctors put Thomas on a stretcher and got him up.

"Kristina and you go to the hospital to look at you." The inspector almost ordered me. I did not have the strength to resist.

We got along with Dary in an ambulance where Thomas was.

On the way Dary called to her mother:

-Yeah, I'm good mommy. But ... Thomas, he ... "she cried. -He's injured. Now we are going to the hospital.

She closed the phone.

-He is like my brother. Chris, if something happens to him, and I'm going to die.

I held her tightly. I did not have to tell Thomas that we know where Dari was. If he had not come, he would not be here now. Damn it!

The ambulance stopped and we went down. The doctors took Thomas as quickly as possible into the operating room.

And we stayed outside. Damn waiting.

- Honey, are you okay? Did Mark do anything to you?

-Don't Chris, it's not the time now.

Then her mother appeared:

-Dear, my lovely daughter.

They embraced.

"Do Tomas know what happened?" I asked.

His parents died in a crash when he was nine. His uncle raised him, "Dary said.

- I called him. He said he would come at once, "said Dary's mother.

"Where is Thomas?" A man asked angrily.

-Similarly John. In the operating room, "explained Dary's mother.

An hour passed ... I drank a few coffees. Hell, nobody says anything.

Another hour ... And all the same ignorance. I watched Dary, her fear was read in her eyes. I made hundreds of prayers. This boy must live to hell.

I sat down beside Dary.

"Honey, how are you?" I asked softly.

She got up and walked to the toilets. I followed her. When I walked in, I saw her wash his face. I approached her and hugged her. But she shrank abruptly:

-Kris, do not.

- Dari, calm down. Everything will be fine.

-There is not! It's easy for you. Still, you were not in the hands of that psychopath. For me now, Thomas is fighting for his life. Do you still think that everything will be fine !?

She left. I pulled her by the arm.

"Something happened in that house, was not it?" I sounded as rough as I wanted.

But Dary did not say anything. Instead, he turned and escaped. And I was standing, I just stood ... Did what just happened was provoked by the situation in which we were or had another reason ...? Well, if the bastard Mark did something to her? I was furious. I unconsciously shrugged my fist and dropped it on the wall. Maybe I had to feel pain, but I did not feel anything ...

Still, I went back to the operating room. I no longer knew how long Thomas was inside ...

The doctor came out.

"Doctor ..." we all said in one voice.

-I'm sorry ... He failed to fight.

Donate collapsed. And I could not believe the doctor's words. Thomas's uncle came into the operating room.

I looked at Dary. I was expecting her to cry, to cry, but not ... She stood facing the wall looking at the ground. After what happened in the toilet, I did not know what I was supposed to do. Should I go to her and hug her or stay away?

The doctors brought Thomas's body out. His uncle was not to himself.

"Dary, darling, are you okay?" Her mother asked.

But there was no sound coming from Dary's mouth. Her mother was worried and called one of the sisters. She took Dary into a room and put her calm, and then my angel fell asleep. My Angel, I had not called her so long ago. I could not imagine her pain. I knew Thomas very briefly, but I still could not imagine life without him ...
