Barbie had a whole different day. Working in the Zeneth's police station as a police officer was sometimes a relaxing job, but sometimes it wasn't relaxing at all. Some days nothing happened and other days like today was like hell broke lose in town.
Barbie and his colleague got a call at around 3:13 pm from the fire department. Two fire fighters had a horrible fight and it had ended with a deathly turn.
The fire fighter who started the fight, the one who lost his mind was pointing the gun at his other colleague's and threatening to kill every single on of them if Barbie and his colleague came closer.
Barbie tried to calm him down while his colleague, he goes by the name of John, tried to stelp the bleeding of the wound of the injured fire fighter who was fighting for his life. He died just before the ambulance arived.
Barbie could talk the insane fire fighter out of his actions and brought him in custody.
The injured fire fighter didn't made it. He died of his injury so Barbie had to break the news to his wife and three sons. The woman freaked out her three boys, the triplets didn't believed it at first, but started crying when they knew it was true. He knew how the little boys felt, the same way as he did when his mom died.
The only thing he could think of, that maybe can be considered as a selfish act, was that he was glad Julia had survived her injury. He just was glad he could go home in a few hours. Working later than usual.
At around 7:00 pm was he able to go home, checking his phone before he entered his car to see that Julia had called two times. He called her up and said he would be home shortly and that he loved her.

He liked to hear that Carolyn and Julia both made the house clean and that they had a lovely day together. Working but having fun at the same time is what makes work enjoyable and the women did have that.
He trully had a future to build towards now. And he was so glad he could do that with Julia.
Barbie told how his day had been after Julia was finished with hers. He first wanted to know how her day had been before he started to tell the news about the fire fighter and everything that had happened today.
"We did get the call from a gunshot and a fight in the fire department so John and I did go to the scene immediately. The guy was totally insane." Julia took his hand in hers and squeezed it gently, letting him know she was there for him. That she was listening. "The other fire fighter, Alejandro was shot in his shoulder… he died today. He had almost the same injury as you had and I had this selfish thought. I was so glad you did make it that day. That I was able to safe you."
Julia listened to the whole story, but didn't actually know what to say to him. She didn't really know how to comfort him even if she wanted to comfort him so badly. "I will be right back. Wait here."She gave him a kiss on the cheek, stood up from the couch and walked to the kitchen and came back with a nice cup of coffee for him.
She stretched her arm towards him to give him the cup of coffee she just had made for him and he took it.
She took place beside him on the couch once again. Giving him another kiss on his cheek who was covered in stubbles from his beard.
"I love you." She said after she had kisses his cheek. He took her hand in his, brought it to his lips and kissed the knuckles of her left hand. "I love you too baby." Did he say softly in return.
He was so glad she was still alive and by his side. Today made him remember that day that Maxine shot Julia in her shoulder. Almost killed her. He couldn't imagine a day, was he kidding, a life without her.
After he drunk his coffee, putting the cup on the table, he bows over to Julia and gives her a quick kiss on her lips and one on her forehead. They both cuddle on the couch while watching the news on CBS.
