"what happened!"
"it's alright murph, she just passed out from da birth. She be fine" da said.
murphy hesitantly nodded and tried to blink the tears out of his eyes. He would not cry in front of his father. Especially at a terrible loss like this. A few hours later Connor and da were sitting in the living room of Rocco's moms apartment. Murphy was out on the fire escape. He hasn't talked to anyone and has been keeping his emotions bottled up inside. Da looked at Connor,
"da baby was his wasn't it?"
connor sighed,"ya"
"and da girl? Who is she?" Da asked.
"she my little sister" Connor smirked and then sighed,"she be Murph's fiancé"
"fiancé?" Da asked surprised.
connor nodded and walked back into the room to check on Olivia. Da took this time and walked onto the fire escape next to his son. Murphy didn't acknowledge his presence, just continued starring at the city. Da sighed,
"I'm sorry son"
murphy just nodded and da said,"when dat girl of yers wakes up ya got ta understand somethin"
murphy looked over over at his dad with regretful eyes and Noah continued,"she's not gonna be da same. What you and er just went through, I couldn't even imagine. But ya listen to me murph no matter how far gone ya think she is, da girl you fell in love wit is still der. Ya just gotta find er again and reach er. Yer gonna ave ta love er like ya never loved er before. Ya understand me?"
murphy nodded and sighed,"it's my fault da. If we would've known da place was a trap. Roc would still be ere, da baby would still be ere. Olivia would ave never come lookin for me!"
da was shocked at bravery the young women had to go after his boys while being pregnant. He looked at his son sympathetically,
"no it's not. She's strong just like ya and Connor and just like ya mother. Ya both will get through dis and after da court hearing next week ya will feel better."
Murphy nodded and began to walk back inside,"gonna go check on liv"
da nodded and murphy went back inside. In Olivia's room Connor had pulled up a chair and was sitting by her bed, holding her hand. His eyes filled with tears he was trying to fight off,
"Ya better not leave liv. Murph's goin crazy, fuck I'm goin crazy. Yer strong alright. We aren't gonna let dis slow our family down. He'll get what's comin to him liv I promise."
murphy started to enter the room, but stopped when he saw Connor. He hadn't noticed murphy yet so murphy leaned against the door and listened to his brother.
"Dat baby of yers is in heaven now and is being watched by da lord. Ya got nothin to worry bout. Except maybe da man ya decided to make ya husband."
murphy smirked and Connor continued,
"And if ya don't wake up, me and murph will kick yer ass so those eyes of yers better open" yer strong liv. Fuck yer stronger dan any man I've met. Including me" he chuckled,"and da only reason I'm tellin ya dat is cause her unconscious and won't remember dis"
"unless I tell er ya said that" murphy said stepping into the room.
Connor jumped up from his chair looking like he had been caught doing something wrong and wiped his tears.Murphy walked over to him and stood infront of him. Connor rubbed his neck,
"how ya doin man?"
murphy sighed and looked down at Olivia,"as well as I can"
Connor knew murphy was bottling up his emotions inside. Murphy continued to stare down at her and tears came to his eyes. Connor noticed and right before one could drop he pulled murph into a hug. Murph hugged back tight as he started to sob. Connor felt his brother shake around him and heard his sobs as his own tears started falling down his cheeks. They both cared about Olivia more than anything and cared about the baby much more than they thought they did. Each brother feeling guilty that they couldn't stop it from happening. The boys finally pulled out of the hug and leaned their foreheads on each others. Both still had tears flowing down their cheeks. Connor gripped onto Murphy's shoulder,
"we're gonna get him. He's gonna pay for what he did" Connors voice cracked.
murphy just nodded and the boys hugged onto each other again. Something happened that day to The hard and tough macmanus brothers. They were both broken men that night and they were determined to get fixed.
"Destroy all that is evil" Connor choked in the hug over Murphy's shoulder.
"so that which is good may flourish" murphy responded gripping onto his brother tighter and looking at Olivia laying on the bed.
Love er like ya never loved er before
