Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)

Chapter 118 A man, a husband and a father...

ALESSANDRO'S POV...

"Wake up, Aless..." I heard a wave of melody, that brought a pleased blow of wind in my ears. This

tone... This seems so familiar...

"Alessandro, baby?" I heard her again. That enchanting tone just rang in my head. Every time she is

calling me, a rush of pleasure just splashes through me.

As if I am hearing an enchanting melody.

"Open your eyes, please?" She sounded so cute and demanding at the same time. I couldn't help but

smile.

Slowly, I opened my eyes, following her words. And soon my eyes met such an amazing scenario. Lots

of white clouds before me with a soothing breeze.

And in this heavenly place, an angel just caught my eye. In a white dress, her slightly wavy hair flowed

in the direction of the wind. She looked like a princess just came out from heaven.

My Victoria...

I stood up and walked toward her. She only smiled at me. One dimple on her left cheek formed, making

her so peacefully enchanting.

"You came?" She asked and I nodded. "I came."

She giggled like a child and tilted her head, pouting slightly. "You are so bad, Aless." She scrunched

her nose.

A lump started forming in my throat. I don't know why, but her sweet face, and free smile, made me feel

so strange. She seems so close to me, yet, so far away.

I nodded my head. "I know... I am the baddest person alive."

She made a disappointed face, just like a little child and I chuckled. "What happened now?"

"Why did you accept my words?" She turned her head to the other side. "I won't talk to you."

Smiling, I shook my head and stood behind her. "Why? Didn't you want me to accept your words? I will

listen to your every word, Victoria."

She stayed silent for some time and then turned to face me. Her green eyes shone with strange

happiness and my heart just trembled to see her smile.

Why does it feel so different?

Still, I nodded. "Yes, baby. Tell me, what do you want?"

"Aless, you know, I always believed that you will accept my every wish. That's why, I have saved our

child to live in this world. He will be by your side, always. He..." She tried to touch my hand, but I

moved away, staring at her in disbelief.

"No! You didn't do it! You can't do this! Victoria, Listen to me..." I tried to step forward but she took a

step back.

Her clear green eyes suddenly filled with water. She shook her head. "No baby, don't say like that. Our

journey started only because of a child and I want it to end with the child. This time, I didn't lie, Aless.

This time, I can give you the child."

"No, Victoria! I don't want any child! I only want you! Please! Please, don't do this! Take your words

back! Please! We... If you want we will make another one! If not! We will adopt one! But, don't do this to

me, please!" I moved toward her, but she only smiled.

A droplet of tears just rolled down from her eyes. The dimple on her left cheek is visible.

"It's too late now, Aless. I have taken my decision. I love you both so much..." She suddenly lifted her

one foot.

"Victoria... No." I felt a little alarmed and too strange at her behaviour. And before I realised her motive,

she leaned back and suddenly, let her body go in the wind!

"NO!" I shouted and ran toward her. I hold her hand but... But, just like a shadow, Her hand vanished

from mine and she started falling, still with a smile on her face...

"VICTORIA!"

Immediately a flash of bright light appeared before my eyes and a sharp pain I felt in my eyes. Slowly, I

fluttered my eyes and things started getting clear in my vision.

Soon, I was welcomed by all white...

"Alessandro? Are you awake?" I heard Grandma's soft tone.

Blinking a few times, I tried to look around to see Grandma staring at me with worried eyes. And then

slowly, my eyes roamed around to see Mr and Mrs Edwards, Antonio around me.

What is happening? Why is everyone staring at me in that way? I looked around again in confusion.

Something want to flash in my head but I couldn't process it. It felt like, something is missing, as if a

part of me.

"Alessandro, can you hear us?" Mr Edwards spoke this time and I blankly watched him.

My lips parted but nothing came out. My throat felt too dry to speak. I closed my eyes again, trying to

force myself to recall what I am missing.

A flash... Accident... Baby... VICTORIA...

Immediately I snapped my eyes open and tried to get up. I need to go to my wife! I felt a sharp pain in

my head and on the back of my right hand. I hissed in pain but I didn't stop myself to get out of bed.

"Alessandro! What are you doing!?" Antonio and the doctors tried to stop me.

I just slapped them away and removed the IV attached to my hand, not caring about the flowing blood

because of my rush.

"Aless..." Grandma tried to speak but I don't care either!

"I need to see my wife! Why don't you understand? I need to go to her! She is alone! I..." I was almost

out of bed, about to run when Antonio pushed me back on the bed forcefully and hold me by the

shoulders.

"She is fine! Victoria is fine!" He said and I stopped, blankly staring at him.

I blinked my eyes. What did he just say? She... Is fine?

Antonio sighed in relief and nodded looking at me. "Yes, your wife is fine along with the baby. By God's

grace, Doctors were able to save both Victoria and the baby."

Hearing him, I just felt that, my whole body was so lightweight. Everything just left me and I could float

in the wind!

The news of both my baby and wife are safe is like water in my deserted heart. Even if I die at this

moment, I wouldn't have any complaints toward God.

"I..." I opened my mouth groggily. "I want to see them."

Antonio turned to the others and their faces... Why do they look like that? I grabbed his hand. "What

happened?"

Mr Edwards shook his head. "Nothing serious. It's just, Victoria is in the ICU and no one can meet her

now, nor the baby."

Antonio nodded. "Yes, the baby was born prematurely and he needed to be in the NICU. But don't

worry, everything is fine now. Both mother and son are out of danger for now. The doctors kept them

under observation."

"Son?" I muttered. The feeling of the fact 'my son', 'my very own child' is something that shivered me.

Suddenly, a new sense of responsibility coursed through me and I just realised that I am a father now.

A father...

The term, I always missed for years. I have a son now. That I always dreamt of. My very own child...

"Yes, baby." Grandma came beside me and kissed my head. "Your son. You are a father now."

"I want to see them... For once... Please." I turned to the doctor and he nodded his head with an

understanding smile on his face.

Soon, I was led into the ICU, with a protective green gown and a mask on my face. If I needed to wear

more, I would have never objected because I just want to have a glance for once at my baby and wife.

The doctor stood aside, giving me some privacy, as I watched the tired and slightly pale face of my

wife. Her black hair was spread on the White pillow and her eyes were closed.

Even in this situation, she is looking divine, as if just came down on the earth by these earthy beings

failed her miserably. At this moment, I want to say a lot to her, but I know I can't.

Still, I sat beside her and kissed her forehead, holding her weak hand in mine. Then my eyes turned to

the glass bed just beside her bed.

In that little glass-covered bed, there lies a little child with wires attached to his little body. This little guy

is my son.

Even with those wires on him and in that glass-covered bed, he looks so peaceful, sleeping like the

little angel he is. At the moment, I want to hold him in my arms but I know, it's not possible.

I still need to say sorry to him. I never meant to not have him. I always wanted him, but... When it came

to choosing between him and his mother, I had to choose his mother.

However, now seeing him, I know that I can't let go of any of them. It would make me equally

devastated if I had to lose.

If one is my oxygen, the other one is my heartbeat. I need both in my life and I am willing to do anything

for these two lives.

I turned to my wife again. At this moment, I know why she wanted to save her child. If I am feeling like

this just seeing that little angel for once, she has kept him inside her for months.

And that feeling, maybe I would never understand, But, I am promising you Victoria, from now on, I will

try my best to learn everything that I missed. I will protect you both with everything I have and will never

let touch you any sort of evil ever...

This is my promise to you as a man, a husband and a father...
