Chapter 8

Nova runs to her father's room. Jumped over the bed. Saw a woman there but couldn't see her face as was covered by curly blond hair.
Curious hit her as removes her hair and sees her face.

"I know you! You are the woman from the altar who was mad with god!" Nova said and caressed her cheek. Bent down to kiss her cheek. The kiss made Emma stirred and as for results wakes up.

"Sorry! I kissed you cause you were sleeping like an angel. My mum and dad kiss me always while I am sleeping. They say I am their Angel!" little Nova excuse herself.

Emma was a bit confused recalling everything that happen these hours.

"Who are you?" Emma mumbled.

"I am Nova River! Nice to meet you again miss!" she stated as stretched her little hand to her.

Emma took it and shake it a bit. Her eyes were adjusting and she finally recognise the girl, as the choir girl she meet yesterday at church.

Emma gives a genuine smile as raises a bit and has Nova on front.

Nova sees her, surprised by her beauty. Her mum is beautiful but she has something more.

"Did my dad hurt you yesterday that you were crying and mad with God?"

"No sweetie! Your dad never can hurt

me."

"I am mad with mum sometimes when she cries for stupid things that happen on tv or her books. "Cause no woman should shed a tear for no one!" my dad says."

" You are very smart."

"Thanks to my parents."

"I din't get your mum name!"

"I don't know cause all the persons she knows calls her by the T letter and I call her mum!" Nova blurred out. The end made Emma smile.

" What are you doing here?" voice of Oliver came as soon he opened the door.

"I am chatting with your girlfriend and dad she is the one for you." Nova started as went to his arms again.

Emma's tears were threatening to come out. Everything she ever wanted was this, a family of her own. Lovely husband and the desired child. She smiles as her eyes are full of saltwater.

"I think I better ...!"

"Go refresh yourself and we are waiting for royalty breakfast." he cut off her words for leaving.

"Can you help me to refresh myself too?!" Nova asked as again went off her father's arm and went to her favorite angel.

"If you want you can carry me or give a kiss or a hug." she announced with those sparkling eyes.

Oliver was surprised to see Nova's attitude toward Emma. Nova never likes a woman so easily. She doesn't permit her granny to hug or kiss easily as is doing with her.

Emma let herself free enjoying this day as never did before. She stayed with them. Eat breakfast as was treated like a queen from both of them. When Nova took her middle day nap, Emma lied down with her. Inside knows is all wrong she is stealing someone else place.

Lunch was made by him and he bought her some usual dress-ups for the night.

Emma helped her to dress up too. For some reasons that no one could define, Nova find clothes to look like her.

"We are finally here! I hope we didn't make you wait mister." Emma said politely.

Definitely, she has something more than other women he had met till now. More he doesn't want to meet others. She is the one he was waiting for so long.

Eating dinner as enjoyed tales of Nova. The girl was fast to sleep after dinner was over. She took it and prepared her for bed. Stood with her for a while then went to the living room.

"If you want I can help you make one like her. She had asked for a while now a sibling!.T don't want other kids and I can't make alone one." he said smiling at her.

"Is time for me to go back to my place." she said as his words fall like a hammer on her heart.

"I understand!" he nodded.

"You don't know what you have done for me this 24 hours. I will be always grateful for each moment! Thank you!"

"The same goes for you Lovely Emma!"

"Will you give me a hug?"

"Sure! I hope we see again." he said as hugged her.

"I think this is the last time! I will go away soon!" She said holding her tears. He felt sad. Indeed this looks like a break-up but has still something more.

Just before she was leaving he open the door for her.

" So you can come again after your travel! And...." he kissed her softly letting unburn desires.

Next 24 hours Emma was preparing herself for the end that she didn't want to postpone anymore. She sent her resignation paper to the owners not saying excuses. She invent a treatment that was crucial for her health on the other side of the ocean.

She said the same to her assistant Terry.

She write a letter for him and put it in a safe box in her bank account.

All second day of the new year passed fixing her last life. Crying over what she had missed. Smiling to the best memories she made just before her final trip.

"Miss wait for the chef here. This is his chamber, he will not be late." Nolan said the same doctor she faced days ago.

Emma was facing the window. Watching the snow falling and covering the path. She had decided to die but wanted to live more than ever. Want to be in his arms. To let herself free as desires send her to the Ether, there where her soul flowed in the air.

" Miss E.R you have requested euthanasia even knowing you have a chance from 50% to survive!" was the tone of the doctor that enter watching her cartel down.

She recognized his voice but hopped that was wrong.

"Miss E.R! Your capitals look like Emergency for short!" he joked and laughed about it.

She still didn't want to believe that he could be there behind her.

He rosed his eyes and saw her.

"E.R is for Emma Raven!" he said and she nodded and let her tears fall as he fall on his chair as the ground was disappeared.
