It's been a week since the incident. It was a tough week for me. The emotions and the physical pain was pretty bad. My father left me a letter saying that he was sorry and how he loves me a lot. I couldn't help but crying all day reading it again and again.

Phoenix's parents have been so caring, they took care of me when Phoenix is under watch for his injuries. I haven't be able to see Phoenix too and it makes me frustrated.

I want to know his condition and I'm worried. Adrian came a lot too and he updated me with Phoenix's progress all the time. I'm so thankful for Adrian since he always brings me the things that I need.

I miss Phoenix, he's the only person that I could rely on in this situation but I couldn't ask much because he has injuries too because of me.

I owe him a lot.

I got a lot of check ups today and it's been so difficult to go through this alone. I tried my best heal faster and see Phoenix. I heard that Finn got caught along with Enzo and the trial will start soon. There's a lot of evidences ready to drag them down.

The police department will question me this afternoon, they wanted me to testify and give more proof to them. I will gladly do it since Julie is not here anymore. Me and Phoenix will be the one who have to testify against that people and will make sure that they won't come out of prison.

I can't even believe that I liked Finn back then, he's so low. I can't believe that he will do such things just because he wants money and more power. Disgusting.

I got a lot of rest and around 4 o'clock, 3 policemen came to ask me some questions. They recorded me for proof later on in court. They questioned me for about one and a half hours. I even have my PI come to give them the eveidences that I have. They thanked me and left.

I looked out the window and it's raining outside. The sky was so dark and I couldn't help but remembered the night that we share in Phoenix's penthouse.

I heard knock on the door and my eyes widen when I saw Phoenix. He brought flowers and he smiled widely when he saw me. I got off the bed and hugged him. Tears filled my eyes and I cried when I felt his warmth.

"Sorry that it took me quite some time to see you." He said as he kissed the top of my head.

"Thankyou." I said as I hugged him tighter.

"Glad that you're okay, I'm sorry that I couldn't be there when you're awake." I said and I leaned back to see him. I cupped his face to check if he's okay and he has a couple of scarring on the back of his neck and the side of his face.

"I'm fine." He said as he held my hand.

"Finn.. he.."

"I know, he's going to rot in jail and I will make sure of that." He said and he put the flowers in front of me. I took it and admiring the beautiful flower.

"I'm sorry about your father." He said.

"Thankyou." I just couldn't say anything about my father. He's going to kill Phoenix before all of these happen. He backed up last minute when he knew I cared for him hut that what brings him to death.

"I'll be taking care of you from now on."

"But you.. you're still recove-"

"I'm fine, I just have some scars that's all." He said and he walked me to my bed slowly. He put the flowers on the side of the bed and helped me to lay down.

"Where were you? You're not in this hospital." I asked.

"The.. ILLICIT brought me to the headquarters, they put me on watch." He said and I nodded.

"I'm glad they did, you need to recover too."

"Did Finn shoot you?" Phoenix asked as he pulled a chair to sit next to my bed. I nodded answering his question and Phoenix looked out the window.

"What did he do besides that?"

"He asked me to call you but I called 112 instead. He didn't like it and he.. shot me. He was crazy, they wanted tot kill you.. my father was one of them too." Phoenix turned to me and nodded.

"I just knew about that too, I thought Julie was working straight up with the cartels but no. Finn was the one who worked with the cartels." He said.

"Yeah."

"You have me, you don't have to worry." I smiled hearing it and I could feel the emotions bottle up. I can't believe that my father is not around anymore. He might be a shitty father sometimes but he's still my father.

I looked out the window seeing that the window filled with rain drops. Phoenix held my hands tightly and I couldn't help but cry again. It was painful for me to handle everything alone. My emotions went on a down fall this week and I was hopeless.

Everything is going to be okay, even though it won't come soon but it will eventually. I just hope that everything will fall into it's place and I just hope that I will accepting the reality eventually.

I miss my father already and I wish I could go back to the past and not being angry with him. I just wish we could understand each other and not end up like this. He was a bad person for planning to kill someone just for more money and greed but he's still my father.

I need time to heal myself..
