Chapter 1
"You will always love me right?" Sharon asked Andy, looking into his brown eyes with love. Andy kissed her gently on the lips and hugged her tight.
"I will love you until my last breath Sharon. And that will never change." he whispered softly and snuggled in her silky hair. Sharon put her arms around him and smiled. She knew that their love with Andy will be eternal. Now, these words seemed nice for both. But none of them knew what turn their fate had prepared.
It was an ordinary morning for Sharon. She slowly opened her eyes against the sun. She rubbed her eyes slightly and looked at her watch. The time was 7am. She knew she was late for work. She quickly got out of bed, went to the bathroom, washed her face and teeth, got dressed and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Rusty was still asleep in his room when suddenly the alarm woke him. He frowned and closed the alarm. A few minutes later, the breakfast was ready and Sharon went to Rusty's room to wake him. She sat on his bed and sighed wearily. She pulled the blanket.
"Hey, what's up?" Rusty frowned.
"Rusty, good morning. Besides this, you'll be late for college. Come on!" Sharon warned several times and returned to the kitchen when she heard that her phone rings. Seeing Andy's name, she smiled.
"How's my beautiful captain?" Andy asked immediately. Sharon laughed.
"Lieutenant Flynn, can you stop with these jokes? '"
"Oh, sorry Captain, but it's the truth. '"
"Hmm ..." Sharon snapped. "Well, Andy, kidding aside. Provenza called you for the new case?" Andy sighed and looked at his watch.
"No, but we talked before 1 hour. We'll go to the crime scene and you, as our boss, you'll go right? '"
"What is this stupid question Andy? Of course I'll be there on time. "
"Yes, sorry that was a stupid question." he admitted.
"Andy, you had breakfast?"
"Yes, actually, Sharon, well ... -''
"Andy ..." Sharon said sternly.
"Well, Sharon, I didn't have breakfast as I would like to have breakfast with my girlfriend, before the workday." Sharon smiled.
"I understand. We'll have breakfast together as you want. '"
"Promise?"
"Andy, I never lied. ''
"Well, I'll wait." They closed the phone. At this point, Rusty sleepily sat down. Sharon turned to him and looked at him closely.
"Hmm ... It seems that you haven't slept well last night?" Sharon noted. Rusty sighed wearily and nodded.
"Yes, actually, you know. Last night I was out with friends, I got home late and ...- '"
"Clearly. No need to explain." Sharon interrupted him grinning. She put a glass of orange juice in front of him and went into her bedroom to take her purse. On the other hand, Andy was waiting for Sharon in the restaurant as she'd promised to have breakfast together. Rusty was having breakfast in the kitchen when Sharon returned to him to kiss him before leaving. Rusty looked at her, "Mom, you have a new case? Where are you going so fast?" Sharon sighed and put her hand on his shoulder.
"I promised Andy that before work will have breakfast together. Perhaps he is waiting for me in the restaurant. I don't want to be late." Rusty smiled slightly and said, "Well, have fun." Sharon smiled and left. Andy looked at his watch. At this point, the waiter approached him.
"Do you want to order something? '"
"No, just waiting for my girlfriend. I want to order together. '"
"Of course." said the waiter politely and walked away. Andy sighed wearily. Waiting make him nervous. He could wait forever for Sharon, but he just needed to see her beautiful face and look into her green eyes. When Sharon finally arrived, Andy sighed with relief. He kissed her on the cheek.
"Sorry I'm late. But you know ...- ''
"Sharon, stop apologizing. It's okay. Besides, I can wait for you forever. I love you." Sharon smiled and took his hand. She looked carefully at the table.
"Oh, you haven't ordered anything besides coffee? '"
"Well, actually ... I wanted to order together." he said with a smile. Sharon nodded slightly. The waiter approached them.
"Well, your girlfriend is here, you can already order." Sharon looked at Andy questioningly. Once they gave the orders, she pouted slightly. Andy sighed and squeezed her hand.
"Sharon, you're angry?"
"No, but Andy, I don't like that you told the waiter that you wait your girlfriend." Andy shook his head and looked at Sharon apologetically.
"Sorry Sharon. I promise that I'll be careful." Sharon's face softened.
"You know, I can never be mad at you. I don't know why, but there is something beautiful in your eyes, which makes me love you more." Andy grinned. "My God, this woman ..." he said to himself.
"Oh, Captain. You're amazing. You can't imagine how much I love you."
"I love you, Lieutenant." she said jokingly, seeing that their orders are ready.
Several hours later, Sharon and Andy were on the crime scene. The victim was 28 year old woman. Sharon squatted in front of the body and examined it carefully.
"Captain, we still couldn't catch the suspects." Provenza said.
"Who do we suspect?" she asked immediately. Provenza sighed and looked at the folder information again, "Sykes and Sanchez gathered new information about the case. We suspect that the killer is her ex-husband. She saw him minutes before the incident." Andy rolled his eyes, dissatisfied.
"Same thing. Again ex-husband." Sharon looked closely at Andy and took the folder from Provenza. She looked at the information and said, "However, we can't be sure that the killer is her ex-husband. We need to search more information. ''
"Yes, Captain. Currently Mike is trying to find new clues." Provenza informed. Sharon nodded and handed the folder back to Provenza.
Several hours later, the team had solved the case. Andy sighed wearily and leaned back in his desk. Provenza put the coffee cup on his desk, picked up a few folders and walked to Sharon's office, while the rest of the team were discussing the case. Just as Provenza would knock on Sharon's door, before noticing a woman approaching him. That woman approached him. She was with brown hair, about Andy's age and wore a red coat. Provenza looked questioningly at her.
"How can I help you ma'am?" he asked politely.
"I'm looking for Lieutenant Flynn. I need to talk to him." Provenza was surprised. Why this woman wanted to talk to Andy? Provenza looked at Andy's desk. He cleared his throat and said, "What do you want to talk to him?" That woman sighed and replied, "It's personal. Please, I need to talk to him." Provenza dissatisfied nodded and took the woman to the Andy's desk. He still hadn't seen her. Provenza returned to his desk. All looked at the woman and Andy. Amy Sykes gently nudged Provenza.
"Provenza, who is this woman? '"
"I have no idea. She just said she wanted to talk to him."
"His ex wife?" Sanchez asked quietly.
"We can't be sure, but maybe you're right." Tao noted.
"Hey, why we should discuss all this? It's their life." Buzz interrupted.
"Buzz's right, let's understand what's happening and who is this woman." Provenza shrugged. That woman stood in front of Andy.
"Andy." she said quietly, looking at him closely. Andy looked at her and froze. Different emotions went through him.
"Abigail? You? Here?" he didn't know what to say at this time.
"Don't expect me, right?" she asked sarcastically. Andy sighed.
"Honestly, I'm not. Nicole knows? '"
"No, I couldn't see her yet. First I wanted to talk to you about our unfinished divorce." Andy gritted his teeth in anger and looked around. He noted that all look at them. He took Abigail's hand and walked away. Provenza shook his head, took his folders and went to Sharon's office.
"Hey, Provenza, where are you going? You'll tell this to the captain?" Amy asked.
"No, but if Andy didn't do it, I will." Provenza replied gruffly and walked into Sharon's office. Sharon took of her glasses.
"Oh, Lieutenant. I waited for you longer. '"
"Sorry captain, I had a little problem. ''
"Oh, do you want to share it? '"
"Don't worry. It's nothing serious." Sharon nodded and looked out the window of her office. She immediately noticed that Andy is gone.
"Where's Andy?" she asked immediately. Provenza sighed, "He went for coffee."
"Oh, I see." On the other hand, Andy stared angrily to Abigail.
"Why are you bothering me after so many years? '"
"Take it easy, Andy. I just wanted to see Nicole. But before that, I wanted to remind you that you're still married to me. Our divorce is not finished." Andy took a deep breath to calm himself. After so many years, Abigail had come into his life again. He hadn't told Sharon that his divorce is not finished. And now, when Abigail was here, he knew he risked losing Sharon. He took her hand.
"Abigail, our relationship ended many years ago. And if you want to know, our divorce will end soon, be sure." Abigail laughed.
"Oh, Andy. Stop being angry. I understand completely. I'm sure you're starting a new relationship after me. In fact, Nicole told me that you have a girlfriend, but I couldn't understand exactly."
"Abigail, I didn't want to talk more with you. Go away, I beg you. Otherwise, there shall be a great scandal. I warn you." Abigail laughed again. At this point, Provenza come to them. He looked at them carefully. Sharon sat in her office, her thoughts in Andy. She decided to check. After a few minutes, she approached them. She was surprised to see the other woman here. Andy froze. What would he say now to Sharon?
"Oh, Andy, I didn't know you were here." She looked with a smile at the other woman and asked, "Who is she?" Provenza bit his lip of the upcoming conversation.
"Well, it's ... my cousin. Abigail." he knew he was lying to Sharon for the first time, but he had no choice now. Provenza's eyes widened. Abigail smiled, realizing that she's his girlfriend.
"Nice to meet you."
"Me too. I didn't know Andy has a cousin."
"Yes, I've not been in LA a long time." Abigail replied quietly, looking at Andy.
Several hours later, Sharon was back in her office, and Abigail had gone. Provenza stood before Andy angrily.
"What are these lies? You're still married to Abigail? You lie to the captain?" Andy sighed wearily.
"Provenza, believe me. I wanted to tell her, but I had no option. Due to personal problems, I couldn't divorce Abigail. But my relationship with her ended long ago. You very well know that I love Sharon." Provenza rolled his eyes angrily.
"I know. But you have to necessarily tell the truth. Otherwise you'll lose her forever. Be sure the captain will understand that Abigail is your ex-wife, not a cousin."
"I don't want to hurt her." Andy said sadly.
"I'm warning you! If you don't tell her, I'll tell her everything." Provenza said firmly and walked away. Andy sighed wearily and looked at Sharon's office. He didn't want to hurt her, but he was obliged to tell her the truth regardless of the consequences.
