Chapter 130

We came closer but still, the distances between us didn't eradicate

Our story remained incomplete

The sky doesn't need to always meet the earth

True love is that which doesn't reach its destination

There were colours, there was a glow when you were beside me

This world was like heaven

In the sands of time, you wrote something like my name and then disappeared leaving me behind with our incomplete story...

RECAP

She wanted him to know how much she desired to be pregnant again with their child and cherish all the moments she couldn't with Ozan. Not like this when its father was lying motionless on a hospital bed fighting for his life, not when she was suffering from intense pain and distress. How will she take care of two children now without Daniel beside her?

A small smile covered her lips as she caressed her belly, 

"I love you, my child, no matter what and we will get through this. Your daddy has to come back to us!"

They all were seated in the courtroom, Vahide, Silas and Nadia on the front row whereas Emir was standing near the door. Talia was right behind Amy who was in her seat clenching and unclenching her fists in anxiety, though today was her winning day since all the evidence was against Gonsalez and there wasn't anyone to defend him.

Amy looked behind where her mother and friends were seated and they all gave her encouraging smiles. She needed it, needed a comforting smile and assurity that everything was going to be fine.

The court soon started as the judge entered and asked the trial to be started. As nervous as Amy was, she took a step forward starting the section with full confidence. At that time only one thing came to her mind and that was Ayla's murdered face as she lay on that cold marble lifeless, the bruises and cuts which seemed to rejuvenate her thirst for justice.

Emir signalled the guard and a few minutes later, a cuffed Gonsalez in an orange jumpsuit was brought in. His condition was screaming evidently that he had accepted his defeat yet the anger and fury in his eyes when his gaze fell on Amy was undeniable. Amy mirrored the same expressions, only there was disgust too.

Firstly, the bank statements and proof against his shady business were presented which also revealed his trafficking and drugs business. Some of his employees, out of fear also ogled the truth in fear. Then it was turn for Ayla's case which the investigation provided evidence about, her postpartum and last mission on which she went to the Gonsalez area. Kevin's betrayal and lastly the day Daniel was shot.

It was only a matter of a few minutes that the court announced its decision declaring Gonsalez corrupt, fraud and murderer. 

"In the light of present undeniable evidence and witnesses, we charge Gonzalez Hammond with second-degree Murders, corruption, trafficking, drug smuggling and illegal businesses he had. Therefore ordering the death penalty and usurpation of his assets that are left along with the closure of this case!" The judge announced striking his wooden hammer against the board and signing the judgement.

The whole investigation team in attendance applauded including Emir who wore a big grin on his face. Silas and Nadia also applauded, sandwiching Vahide in a hug who cried in glee. Amy smiled letting out a sigh of relief as they took Gonsalez away, probably to his death place. 

Every officer congratulated Amy and Emir before leaving.

A tear fell from her eye as she hugged Emir who also became teary, today they finally avenged Ayla's death. Vahide came next and then Silas and Nadia eventually made it a group hug.

"Finally, that bastard reached his end!" Silas commented while wiping his eyes.

"I am so happy," Nadia piped in.

"Yes, finally her sacrifice is conceded!" Emir said looking at Amy.

"You are right, all this because of you!" Amy replied, nudging his shoulder.

"Come on Amy, we all know you also did a lot!" Emir side hugged her. Vahide smiled at them all, her heart feeling momentary peace.

"Now, all this is over, I am going back to your house Amy. Ozan must be troubling Martha,"

At this, the lightly happy atmosphere changes into a gloomy one again.

"Yeah, he must be feeling alone. I will try to be back in a few hours mom!" 

"Okay, my child!" Vahide pressed a small kiss and gave a sad smile leaving the courtroom.

"I will accompany her," Emir said greeting them all goodbye and going after her.

"Amy…." Silas started but before he could complete his sentence, a frantic looking Talia approached them holding a mobile phone.

"Amy, there is a call from the hospital. Mr Saritas is in critical condition, they are asking you to be there!" 

Her heart dropped in the pit of darkness as she gasped and without listening to any other thing dashed towards her car not caring whether anyone was following her or not.

Critical situation, that thing made her heart jump out of her chest as she ran towards the CCU like a lunatic. From the distance, she could hear her friend's voices asking her to slow down but she could care less.

As soon as she stopped by the room, she peeked inside the glass window to see an unconscious Daniel lying on the bed and while a bunch of doctors and nurses made a shell around him. More machines were attached to his body and instead of an oxygen mask, a nasal cannula was worn on his mouth for breathing.

"D-Daniel!" Amy whimpered as Nadia and Silas reached her from behind, their gazes landing on Daniel.

"Amy," Nadia whispered, trying to get her away from the scene knowing what her condition is. Tears dropped by her eyes.

Silas only clenched his fists in fear, seeing his friend like that, an alarming feeling occupying his heart.

The scene inside the room was making her wary of every moment as she stepped closer, placing her hands on the glass window.

The doctors all fluttered and one of the doctors was trying to take the head as he asked for some machine to be placed on Daniel's chest making her heart rate skyrocket.

The moment everyone noticed that the beats of his heart were seizing on the heart monitor, the doctor started to give him CPR for several minutes making his body jerk forward with every push given by the doctor.

The monitor started to make loud sounds as the Nurse slid the curtains above the window. A loud sob escaped past Amy's lips as she tried to enter inside but Silas and Nadia grabbed a hold of her making her sit on the nearby bench as they too burst into tears unable to comfort each other.

"Oh God please save him, I can't lose him!" Amy hiccupped between her sobs.

"No, not him. He already suffered the most,"

She couldn't believe that all this was happening to her, to them when he already suffered the most. All her curses and stupid mistakes brought him to this stage, on the brink of death.

A flash of memories of him travelled through her mind like some trailer of a movie.

His comforting hugs

His ensuring smiles

His loving gaze

His gentle touch and kisses

The way he called her tesoro

The way he brought her twinkies in their childhood.

Comforting her even when he needed it the most.

The pride and warmth in his eyes when he held Ozan for the first time and looked at her.

If only she could have a chance this time, she wouldn't let him go ever. Tell him every day how much she loved and desired him. He was her love, her best friend, her husband and the father of her children. 

Silas seemed to be in the same agony, remembering all the moments he had with his brother like friend. From being quaky children to teenagers and then colleagues, all his stupid moments where Daniel would rush to save him. All the times he would care for him despite wearing that mask of irritation and anger. Why would destiny make him suffer like this when he had already suffered more than any of them.

Amy didn't know for how long they sat there cocooning each other and crying before the doctor finally walked out of the room removing his masks and gloves. The nurses behind, leaving the room.

This time there wasn't any sympathetic smile on his face instead a grim expression etched causing ripples of fear to surge through her body.

The doctor shook his head before informing, 

"We are sorry Mrs Saritas, we have taken every effort to save your husband but his body doesn't respond. His heart stopped pumping blood properly, it's with deep sorrow that I inform you if his condition remains the same for the next twenty-four hours, it will be your decision to cut off his life support!"
