The person who truly loves you also gets tired. ---- Through Night and Day
"Could you tell us what is in your mind? All the things you need and want to say to Luna, this is your time to speak up….to voice out your thoughts and what is in your heart. Remember it takes only a moment to say you love someone, but a lifetime of regret if you let the moment slip away….once again" Francois''s voice was heard as he stared at his wife''s ex-husband. ??
"If I had a choice and I have no regrets in my life knowing her. I wanted to tell her….My Luna…. I wanted to tell her that wherever I am, whatever happens, I''ll always think of her, and the time I''ve spent my life with her is the happiest and memorable time of my life. I would like to do it again if ever I have a time machine and go back in the past but I will erase the times that I have hurt her, the times that I believe at Sofia''s lies and schemes. I will reverse the time and go back on the day I first meet my wife….My Luna" Louie inform them as he stared at Luna who is looking at him but she was in the arms of her husband.
Dimitri: "Continue speaking your thoughts Louie Chen, we want to know everything. What are your intentions towards my sister and to the twins? The twins are not acknowledging you as their father but they just let you know that you are related to them by blood. We knew that your paternal grandparents are very particular when it comes to heirs of your surname if they got the news about the twins'' existence they will do everything just to give them the surname Chen to the kids. As we all know that the twins'' are now the heir and heiress of the Vendari''s."
Louie averts his eyes to Luna and looks at Dimitri, he sighs deeply and swallows the lump on his throat. "I''ll protect Luna and my kids towards my grandparents. It''s okay with me if the kids'' surnames are Vendari, I knew that Viscount Francois is the man who stands beside Luna from the moment she stayed with tour family. I know that the twins are mad at me, I can''t blame them for having grudges towards me. But I hope and wish that I could spend some time with them. All I want is that my kids could call me Father someday."
"Giving you some time alone with the kids is not possible, I don''t like that idea and it''s the twins'' decision if they will call you Father nor be close to you," Alexei said as he arranges some syringes with ampules on its side. "I almost lost my life on the day the twins are born, it''s the day you got married to Sofia Su and that''s the day I promised to myself that you will never be get closed to them" Alexei added.
"What do you mean by you almost died? Cassie asks him. Then suddenly Luna''s laugher was heard and the blushing face of Francois was seen by everyone. "Francois almost killed Alexei that day, he even almost torn down the Olympus Hospital for not giving Luna a drug to suppress the pain that she was having that time," Ryder said as he controls his laughter. Cassie looks at Francois and with an asking look to him to enlighten her more, "Francois pointed a gun to Alexei''s forehead who is just woke up from a nap, then out from shocked Alexei can''t process anything yet for he is not an ob-gyne doctor and he was afraid that he might hurt Luna that time" Scarlet was the one who explained the situation that has happened five years ago.
"I can''t trust anyone to handle Luna''s situation at that time, Amber was not on duty that day and I can''t trust anyone for Luna has mild hemophilia and he was the only one I could entrust Luna''s safety" Francois defended himself to the eyes of Cassie. Cassie giggled and said, "Oh my! I would like to see that kind of scenario again if Luna gave birth again to the next twins."
"You have mild hemophilia? Why didn''t you tell me about that, I mean, I''ve hurt you five years ago and I know that there is a wound, the wound that I gave to you at your left wrist" Louie''s voice was heard that brought back the rest to their senses. Luna looks at Louie when she heard his questions, she left a soft chuckle upon hearing it coming out from his lips.
Luna sighs deeply, and she recalled some bits of pieces of the heartache she buried five years ago in her heart and she answered Louie''s questions by stating; "Why should I have to inform you about it? You never believe me, all my pleading words when you give me some beating because Sofia has said something that I did to her but in the reality, I never touch even a single strand of her hair. You didn''t even believe me when I said my feelings for you, even when you force yourself to me you didn''t mind if the bruises of the night''s nightmare could be seen by others. You didn''t even bother when I was drowned when Sofia pushed me at the pool on the night of your annual party and you even get jealous because Luke and Raymond were on my side to comfort me and that very night you force yourself again to me. There are so many things that happened to my life when I was living at Villa 8 Louie, your mom usually beats me when I don''t cook food for her and Sofia. She even humiliates me in front of her friends and said some awful words about me and my mom and when I once told you about it you didn''t believe me NOT EVEN ONCE."
"The day I left the Villa 7, I made a promise to myself, a promise that I have to do when the time comes that we meet again. When I was caught at the gang war at the train station, I thought it will be my end. Right there and then I said to myself that one day, I hope you look back at what we had and regret every single thing you did to let it end" Luna added. Francois could feel the pain that Luna has having right now. The Knights, Jamil, Ryder, and especially Dimitri also could feel the hatred, anger, and even her pain towards Louie. Then suddenly "Yes, I have fallen in love with you five years ago, I loved you and cared for you five years ago. I don''t regret meeting you and even having been married to you because without you the twins'' will never be born. And Louie, I don''t want you back… I don''t want you to be with us…. I mean with the twins" Luna declared what''s on her mind.
The words of Luna was like a time bomb to Louie''s ears, he can''t accept it. He can''t accept that the woman fell in love with and the mother of his children is no longer interested in him, nor even have a few feelings for him. Louie shook his head as his body trembles and his mind and heart can''t accept Luna''s decision. The Wu triplets were shocked upon hearing her words especially Jessica, "I have no regrets at all when I marry him Jessy, but I''m scared that one day; one day I will stop loving and caring him, and he will no longer be in here in my heart, and all I can feel for him is hatred. That one day I will seek revenge for all the things he has done to me even the things that my step-sister, my family, and his family have done to me." Jessy said in a very low tone but Marco and Xavier heard her. "Those are Luna''s words for Louie when I went to see her and gave her tickets and pocket money for her journey. She told me about those words five years ago and now, it is happening….. I think it is also written in her diary" Jessica informed the two Knights.
Marco and Xavier look at each other, "It is also the words of Luna when she was having a high fever before. Francois went ballistic when she didn''t recover for three days and she keeps on mumbling those words when she was asleep. Don''t you two remember it Xavi? Marco? Amber reminded them.
As they look at Louie, he was very pale and he was still shaking his head and he utters the words "No I can''t accept it." He can''t accept that the woman who once vowed to him that she will love him forever has already gone, he can''t accept that he already lost the woman he fell in love with five years ago and he can''t accept the fact the mother of his kids can''t accept him anymore even as a friend. "I know I made mistakes, and now I''m living with the consequences. I regret it, I do. And I''m sorry" Louie uttered as he looks at Luna with tears on his face.
"Love can last a lifetime Louie Chen. And so will the pain of regrets if you messed up something worthwhile up" Francois told him as he watches him pleading at Luna with tears. Yes, he was pleading for Luna to let him be friends with the kids, for him to have a relationship with the kids as their father. But he can''t dictate his wife to change her mind about it, he respects whatever decision his wife made about Louie and the kids, for him this is worse than physical torture that their boys will give to Louie.
Dimitri chuckled, he just heard Louie''s words towards is sister and he feels disgusted towards him. "Louie Chen, you know what? There are three things you cannot recover and repair in life: first is the moment after it''s missed, second was the words after it''s been said, and the third was the time after it''s been wasted. You will never know that life becomes more meaningful when you realized the simplest fact that you''ll never get the same moment twice."
