Author’s POV
GREG didn’t give up on his love. Mia, who always felt pity for Greg got to be on Greg’s side as she always pleaded on his behalf that Gianna should be with him.
And then she made him promise that he won’t let anything happen to Gianna and her baby as long as he was alive.
Greg took Gianna out on a date with his friends one fateful day. He opened a golden box revealing a pure gold ring.
He took Gianna’s hand in his as he coughed to clear his throat.
“Go on, what are you waiting for -“, Lionel stomped his feet annoyingly as Greg was still kneeling placing a hand on his heart smiling at the confused Gianna.
“Awwn look at him. Who would have believed you were a ruthless killer huh?”, Nelson smacked his head laughing.
“It’s my first time proposing to a girl. Of course I am nervous. Now sssshh” Greg glared at them as he turned back to Gianna who was now as red as a tomato sitting there looking down.
He smiled as he lifted her chin making her look into his eyes. For minutes, the two lovebirds kept staring at each other lovingly.
“I love these eyes you know”, Greg whispered as her cheeks flushed red all the more, then her eyelids flickered
“Gianna -“, he began, “I am not the perfect guy you may have idolized, I am not expressive when it comes to emotions, I am at my worst whenever I am angry, I am possessive, jealous and dominating, I am not even the guy you would want to be friends with, I know, but baby, I promise I will change for you, I will give you flowers everyday, I will try to arrange the best date nights, I will try to learn to cook your favourite meals, I will kiss your lips every single day, I will listen to your every story, I will cuddle with you when you will be feeling cold, I will tell you funny stories when you are sad, I will take you to long drives, I will sing songs for you, I will always protect you, I will go on your favourite vacation with you, I will always love you I swear, I will do anything in my power to keep you happy -”
Gianna was melting under his words, she couldn’t help it. The smiles on her face deepened as her cheeks flushed redder, her right hand cupped over her mouth in utmost shock.
Lionel and the other two were just ‘awwwning’ the whole time.
“Gianna, will you marry me?” Greg popped up the question as he stared in her beautiful eyes, her heartbeat racing faster.
Every one was standing there holding their breath in anticipation.
Gianna stared intensely at him and then she smiled nodding a yes as she streched out her left hand towards him.
Happily, very happily, Greg slipped the ring in her finger and wrapped his arms around her in a hug.
Everyone smiled and began clapping but just then.
“Lionel… are you crying?”.
Lionel quickly wiped his tears looking away.
“These guys”, Clemson moved towards Lionel ruffling his hair.
“It’s okay to show your emotions Lionel. They know you love them a lot”, he said.
Lionel looked at Clemson as he nodded back smiling.
“We made it buddy, despite all the hardships, we are together”, Nelson spoke as Clemson patted his back.
“Because no matter what, we will walk and stay together until -“, Taylor came forward as he back hugged the guys.
‘If it weren’t that Gabby messed up and ended up dying untimely, they all would have been here together’, Taylor thought.
“Congratulations to you Gianna”, Lionel said as he looked at the beautiful couple smiling at them.
…Next Morning…
Gianna’s POV
I couldn’t stop the tears from flowing as Aunt Christa, Clems and ma’am Diana told me everything.
So Clems has been my big bro all along. I felt it, that vibes in him but I had thought it was because of his niceness, who would have thought so?
“I’m sorry Gianna. Please forgive me for all I have done to you”, Aunt Christa apologized.
“Don’t cry dear, you should be happy we were able to reunite again after searching for you for the past eighteen years”, Clemson muttered as he pulled me into a hug.
Instantly ma’am Diana joined the hug and likewise Aunt Christa, and together we made one big family, the family that Yakuza tied apart.
I spent the afternoon in my mom’s house with Clemson and Aunt Christa as mom prepared so many delicacies for me.
At that moment, I was the most happiest woman on earth. Why not? I got the most loving and romantic fiancee. Then a kind big brother, and a caring mom.
Although, it was sad a bit because Mom told me my biological father died some years ago.
…Time Skip…
“Gianna please, I don’t want to do this”, Greg said.
“Greg, you were happy for me for having back my family, then why don’t you want to have your family back as well?”, I asked.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
We were driving, driving somewhere. For the past few days I have been trying to make him see reasons why he should forgive his family, and reunite with them, but he just wouldn’t budge.
“Please love, just forgive your family. I know they have hurt you pretty much, I know, but just forgive”, I uttered as our car pulled up.
He looked at me and I looked at him too, I could see the unwillingness and nervousness in his eyes, and I smiled wearily.
“Come hun, let’s go”, I said taking his right hand as the chauffeur already held the car door open, and we got down.
Then we left the roadside and walked further into a filthy compound. Standing in front of an old house, that seemed to be falling apart, I turned to him.
“Lets go in”, I muttered as I took his hands in mine again.
“I’m nervous Gina. I don’t know how to face them, it has been years”, he said in a low voice and I nodded knowingly.
“I’m right here with you Greg, it’s gonna be alright”, I comforted him as I raised my left fist to knock on the wooden door.
