Confession Of A Lonely Man

45 minutes of a dreadful waiting, the door of an emergency room slide open, out the doctor in blue scrub, inform to them all that Stella is in stable condition, that she was lucky to get hit not on her vital point and she'll be transfer on the private VIP ward.

"She's a fighter honey, now don't worry much okay," said Jacob to George as he silently brawls out together with Skylar.

Both Skylar and George hug each other while brawl their eyes out as their partner trying to calm them down while Luciano silently closes his eyes and let out a relieved breath.

"Let's visit her," said Luciano in a short yet straightforward as he walks over to the lift area.

A few minutes later, all of them rushed inside the room while Stella was under sedate and hooked with multiple wires that connect to her hand, finger and chest area.

"The patience need to get lots of rest as her body is stressed and overwork. She will wake up by tomorrow afternoon or evening" said the nurse as she writes something on the board and then places it back at the foot of the bed.

"If there's an emergency don't forget to press the red button and only if it's an emergency" add the nurse as she shows them the red button before she walks out from the room and leaves them behind.

"All of you should go home, I'll watch over her," said Luciano as he stands close to Stella.

"It's okay, I will stay with her," said George as he holds the handle of the bed.

"I want to stay too," said Skylar a second later after George.

"No need, if you are here then what about your daughter?" said Luciano as he looks at George.

"Besides who will bring my son and pack his stuff if the two of you stay behind?" ask Luciano as he looks at both Skylar and George.

"Listen to the young man honey and let's get back to our daughter," said Jacob as he holds onto George's hand.

"Fine" reply George short yet in a sulking tone.

"I'm staying" reply Skylar stubbornly.

"If you stay behind, who will bring Marius's clothes to me and also Lucian can keep you company tonight so rest at the hotel," said Luciano as he looks at his brother who nods his head.

"Jacob could you please sent my son to me this evening?" asked Luciano as he looks at Jacob.

"Luciano, I guess it's best if Marius just stays with us for the night and until Stella discharge. I don't think she'll appreciate it if Marius sees her like this and also it's safer for Marius if he's with us plus you can focus on taking care of Stella" said Jacob explain his intention.

"Thank you, Jacob," said Luciano as he nods his head towards Jacob before he focuses back on Stella.

"Okay then, let's go. We'll be back with your clothes" said Jacob as he side hug his husband who was reluctant to move away.

"Come, baby, let's go," said Lucian as he sides hug Skylar who was pouting and slowly walk out of the room.

After all of them out from the room, Luciano exhales another long breath as he finally left alone with Stella without anyone disturb them.

"Lia baby, why did this shit happen to you?" said Luciano to Stella who was fast asleep.

"Why did this thing needed to follow you?" add Luciano as he looks at Stella's face while caressing her cheeks.

"You've been saving people all of your life, starting from me. Never have I ever forget you the moment I look at you, that moment where I lay my eyes on you is the most amazing feeling ever. I want to hug you but I got to control myself as you were still small and know nothing, all innocent and cute" smile Luciano as he takes his seat next to Stella.

"Then the second time where you truly are an angel sent from above where you push me out of danger in which I hoped and prayed that you will never do that any more and now look where you are," said Luciano as he holds Stella's hands softly.

"I promise you this Stell that The Varrios Riot Cartel will pay for their sins for putting you here. I'll bring them down for doing this towards my Donna" add Luciano as he kisses Stella's hands softly.

Luciano then fishes out his phone and talk over the plan that he had in his mind while still hold onto Stella's hand. After ending the phone call, he then quickly make a call to inform his in-laws regarding Stella's situation.

"Hello Pater (father), I have bad news to tell you. Stel-" said Luciano but was cut by Giovanni.

"Yes filium (son) I know and I'm on my way to New York now," said Giovanni.

"Okay pater (father), see you soon" reply Luciano as he hangs up the call.

"Your family is coming love, just rest well and get up soon okay," said Luciano as he looks at Stella with a soft yet loving smile.

"You know Lia, it was a pure coincident when I found you. It's like the universe wants me to find you and all my prayer has been answered" said Luciano as he looks at Stella while seating at the chair waiting for the hospital staff to get his bed ready.

*KNOCK KNOCK* *KNOCK KNOCK*

"Sir, I'm here to make your bed," said the hospital staff as she enters the room and quickly fixes his bed besides Stellas'.

"Is there anything that I can help with?" asked the hospital stuff before she exits the room.

"No, there's none and thank you" reply Luciano in a strictly business-like manner as the hospital stuff nodded her head and exit the room.

"When I was at my lowest your face will pop up on my mind and instantly all my worry will disappear. Then a miracle happens when I was in New York I saw you walk over to the mall together with Skylar. At that time, you have no idea how excited and happy I was when I get to know that you are you, the woman that I've been searching for and since that day I've been monitoring your movements well not every single thing but just a couple of it. I'm not a creep, I'm just a lost soul without your guidance" said Luciano as he caresses Stella's cheek while being cheesy towards Stella.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Frati (Brother), we've arrived," said Lucian as he knocks once and straight away enters the room.

"Here's your stuff" add Lucian as he hands over a small travel bag to Luciano.

"Grazzi frati (Thank you brother)" reply Luciano as he put the bag in the closet.

That night after a brief visit from Lucian, Skylar, Jacob and George, Luciano stay behind to accompany Stella throughout the night as he makes himself comfortable laying down on the extra bed that was provided by the hospital staff and drifted to dreamland together with Stella.
