Liana's POV

I felt tired and exhausted. The lights coming through the curtains woke me up. The white painted wall of the hospital was what greeted me first. This made it feel so real that I am a mother again. I smiled at the thought and got up into a sitting position. My baby was lying peacefully in her cot. She looked like an angel: An angel sent to make me whole. I couldn't stop looking at her neither could I carry her. It's been five years since I had Junior, what if I break her when I carry her? She looks really fragile.

A yawn escaped my mouth and I felt the urge to pee. I stood up and went to the adjoining room which was the bathroom and relieved myself. When I got back, the door of my room was opened which insinuated that someone has entered. Everything was in its rightful place and my baby was still sleeping. So what did the person come to do? I double-checked my daughter before lying back down on the bed.

"Knock Knock!" A nurse voiced out and entered.

"Good, you are awake. How are you doing this morning?"

"I am fine, dear, better than I can be."

"That is great, considering the pain you went through to get this little angel out of you."

"She is worth the pain."

"Of course. You are one brave woman and I must say it was quite exciting to help you deliver. Your husband made it fun. I nearly laughed out of my skin when I saw how frightened he was. He nearly fainted."

"My husband?"

"Yes, Mr. Miller, he was holding your hand throughout. I noticed that seeing you in pain was so hard for him. It's good he experienced this, so he can appreciate you." I smiled just to be polite to her.

"Anyway, it's time to feed this little angel. Let me help you."

She carried my baby and positioned her in my arms in a way that will make it easy for me to feed her. I thought she was sleeping but immediately my left breast got close to her lips, she got hold of it and started sucking it. Once in a while, she will open her adorable eyes and close them. She looks exactly like her father. Junior might have taken a few features from me but this girl took everything from her father. From the shape of her eyes to her nose and lips. Even the shape of her face was that of her father's.

"Such a betrayal." I joked. This is not fair. I carried her for nine months, she should have at least taken a single feature of mine.

"That's a beautiful baby you have got there. And the calmest I have ever seen. Before I forget, your family is here, I made them wait at the reception so you can feed her."

"Okay, thank you."

Someone knocked and we both diverted our attention there.

"Sir, I thought I told you to wait at the reception. The patient is feeding her baby."

"I know but I can't wait to see my daughter and grandchild. Please understand me, I am over-excited."

"Don't worry Doreen, let him come."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am. He is my dad."

"Okay. You got lucky this time." She winked and exited the room.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked mischievously.

"Oh, nothing. But why do I have a feeling that you like that nurse?"

"Come on darling, I am an old man in my late sixties, who would want me?"

"Doreen isn't young either. I believe she is over forty dad. And that's not a bad age for you."

"Whatever. Stop creating stories where there is none. I am happy being alone and nothing is going on between us. Now, can I see my granddaughter?"

"Aww, she is so cute and adorable, oh and a foodie too. See how she is munching on that milk."

"Now you have found your match daddy. You two will be having eating competitions."

"Hold on baby, I have something to do." He took a minute to text something on his phone and turned it off.

"Is everything okay dad?"

"O-o-oh yeah, everything is fine."

"Are you sure?"

Third Person's POV

"Yes, I a........."

"Mummy!" Junior ran into the room with a bouquet of her favorite flowers. It had a note on it. She gently placed the baby in her cot and reached out for the note.

"To the most beautiful woman I have ever known, my ride or die, my first and forever love, and the mother of my two pretty amazing kids. I know things have not always been smooth in our marriage. We have had our ups and downs and we always find ways to forgive each other and move on. The past six years have been the best and the years that I felt most alive and it's all because of you. Words can not explain how much I love you, babe. You changed me and made me understand myself. You thought me how to love and think of others. You made me the happiest by giving me our son and today I am proud to be a father again because of you. I have not been the best for you. I made you cry and I am sorry. I wish I have a time machine that will take me back to correct all my wrongs and delete all the times that I made you weep. Please forgive me for I can not live without you and our kids. You are my world and I have no world without you."

She couldn't control her tears at the end of the note. They fell freely and soaked the upper part of her dress.

"Here"

A nurse who had entered when she was reading her note handed her a tissue. She was also struggling not to cry.

"You can come in." Mr. Gonzalez said to someone on his phone. Minutes later, the door was opened again and Heath walked in with Amanda following him. The nurses gave him way to walk to where his wife was.

For a moment he didn't know what to say. He has already practiced it but immediately he saw her, he forgot all that he wanted to say. So he decided to say what is in his heart.

"I am sorry that I fucked us up. I didn't mean to. I was only trying to fix things so you wouldn't stress. Now I know how wrong I was. I love you baby and I will never cheat on you. You are the very blood that runs through my vein. These months without you have been hell. At some point, I wanted to die. I am only alive today because I reminded myself that I have to live for you and our kids. Please babe, fo..........." He went on his knees.

She stood up from the bed and walked to him then held out her hand to help him stand up.

"I am sorry too love for overreacting. I failed you, Heath, I failed to keep our marriage vows. I failed to honor the 'for better or for worse' vow I took on the alter. I know you did all this for me, yet I was selfish to dwell on my pain. I have a single knife stabbed through my back whiles you had a lot of knives at your back yet I cried that mine is more painful. I have been ungrateful. I need your forgiveness too. Life without you is hell and I wouldn't want to go through it again. I love you, Mr. Heath Miller."

"Babe, you have made me the happiest."He took her into his arms and hugged her like it was the first time holding her. After a while, he looked at her and connected his lips with hers.

"I-I have missed you so much." He mumbled through their kiss. He then placed silly kisses all over her face, causing her to giggle.

"Come, babe, come and see our daughter."

When Junior was born, he was scared to look at him, much more to hold him. That was not the issue now. If anything, he was excited to see his daughter and even before he sees her, he knew she will be his weakness.

She walked with him to her cot and stood behind him as he admired his child.

"Damn! this is the new love of my life." He said, making everyone in the room laugh while seconds ago they were crying.

"I am jealous!" Liana faked a pout.

Six Months Later

Liana's POV

We named her Angeni Felisa Miller since she is our angel. She came to unite our family. Not every story is rosy. You can not have the rose and ignore the thornes. My life has not been easy. I have roamed the streets, slept under bridges, and eaten food from trash cans. I didn't have anyone except Gladys to rely on. I was not educated and the clothes I had then could be counted on my fingers yet, look at me now. I have more than I could ever ask for. In a way, I am grateful that I met Pharrell. It is because of him that I came to the United States. If I had not come here, I wouldn't have met all the amazing people in my life today. Just because there is one bad nut doesn't mean all the other nuts are bad. He thought he was fooling me when in truth he was leading me to my destiny. I have gone through a lot of painful things but those can not be compared to the happiness and peace that I have now. I chose to forgive my husband not because I have forgotten what he did, but I decided to remember all the things he has done for me. He has been with me right from the start. He was in the background acting as my guardian angel and saving me from troubles. Sometimes, the kind man you are looking for in others is in our friends around us. We look for love elsewhere whiles someone is dying to have us. That is what happened to me. And I am glad I fell in love with my guardian angel. I took a step to forgive and now I am stuck with a gentle, loving, man who brings my needs before his.

We have two adorable kids and we are looking forward to more. But for now, we will love and cherish what we have. Guess what, my dad is now dating the nurse at the hospital, Doreen. It all started when he offered to help her push a certain patient in a wheelchair.

Last month we attended Annie's graduation. She is going on to the medical school. Heath and I have pledged to pay all her fees and everything she needs, provided she stays on top of her class. I re-employed Melinda and Daniel. They are the best after all. Velma is engaged now. After series of heartbreaks, the right man found her. I asked of Louisa and I was told she is with her daughter, taking care of her granddaughter. Amanda is pregnant again with her third child and together with her family, they have moved back to Texas.

The last time I checked up on Carmine, she was in the asylum. Sometimes I think she is faking. Either way, Asylum is also not a better place to be at. I feel sad sometimes but everyone has to pay for the sins they committed.

Do I think of Pharrell?

Nope, not at all. He is gone and I have gotten rid of everything that reminds me of him except my birthday. After everything, we found out that Martina was helping him and giving him information about my husband. She was fired, arrested, and released on bail. I heard she has gone back to Mexico to start a new life. I hope she changes her stinking attitude.

As for me, I am very happy and fulfilled. I couldn't have asked for more......

<Baby wails>

"Babe your daughter is crying!"My husband called from our room.

"I am coming just a second."

I have to go. Remember to always find the good in every situation. Some gems are hidden in our problems.
