G: Mommy!
Grace runs into my arms as she sees me. Her face is full of tears. I pick her up, wishing her tears away worried.
E: What's wrong, my dear?
She points to her knee which is bleeding. Ryan is coming over with tissues.
R: She was running too fast and stumbled over her feet. I couldn't catch her in time, sorry.
E: It's okay, she will be fine.
I give Ryan a smile to show him, he doesn't need to worry. It happens. She is a toddler. It's okay to get scars. I sit down, Grace on my lap while Ryan cleans her wound. I sigh, looking out of the window to look to Charles who is still down at the lake.
E: You're so strong Gracie.
I give her a kiss on her head. She looks up to me and points to my face.
G: Mommy hurt?
Ryan looks up to me and gives me a tissue. I wish the tear away, which was rolling over my cheek.
E; Yeah, mommy got also hurt but you know what? We're strong girls and will get over it.
Charles walks into the living room. More tears are coming which I can't hold back.
G: Down!
She gets off my lap to see if my knee is also bleeding. She already forgot about her own knee. Charles kneels down to Grace to distract her.
C: Wanna come to daddy mon ange?
G: Daddy!
She sees him and giggles as she runs into his arms. Charles throws her in the air. I don't want to cry infront of Grace so I run outside. Trying to breathe. Our little family will never be the same again.
RYAN POV
I see Elisabeth running outside crying. I go to the window to watch her worried. She breaks down crying in the garden. I sigh.
C: I'm gonna take out Grace for dinner to give Elisabeth some space.
R: Okay.
I only nod while watching Elisabeth to make sure she's okay.
Marcus: I'm gonna come with you.
My friend from bodyguard school, Marcus is with us since the last couple of days because of situations like this and I can't be awake 24/7. We don't know what Louise is doing but all I want is to protect this family. I hear Charles grabbing his key cars.
C: Ryan?
R: Yes?
I turn to him with a soft smile.
C: You and Elisabeth, I mean-
R: She tried to save your marriage, Charles.
C: O-okay.
He nods slowly before he walks out with Marcus and Grace. After watching Elisabeth for a bit I decide to go outside to her.
