Chapter 9-The Revelation
Little did Riza Hawkeye-Mustang knew that she was going to be shot .She knew that her ex held a grudge against her but she didn't expect him to shoot her or tell her that her offspring is dead. The blonde lay unconscious on a hospital bed, she opened her eyes slowly, thankful that she was still alive.
"I'm glad you're alright, you scared me to death." Roy's lips formed a smile of satisfaction. He was leaning against the corner of the room with one hand on top of his head.
The first lieutenant bit her lip, "I'm sorry," she frowned slightly.
The flame alchemist stood up from his position and neared his lieutenant. He stood at the right side of the bed with the same face.
" Roy, listen, I—"Riza was cut by her spouse's sudden action. He hugged her like there was no tomorrow, he just hugged her tight…as if he would never let go.
"I was afraid I would lose you…" Roy whispered in her ear. "I don't care what your past is like or who you are…because I love you more than life itself."
Riza's eyes saddened causing the jet black haired colonel to look at her, tears steamed out of her lovely amber eyes.
"What's wrong, Riza?" he wiped her tears with his thumb.
"I don't deserve someone like you…"
"How can you say that?"
"I deserve to be hated by everyone even…even…Emily…" more tears rolled down her cheeks. "I wasn't there, Roy, I wasn't there when she got sick, I wasn't there at her funeral…and…I wasn't there to be a mother…"
Mustang smiled all of a sudden. "That doesn't make you a bad mother; you just didn't know she got sick. You were working at Central." He reached inside his pocket and placed a folded piece of paper on her hand.
"It was found inside Tyler's clothes, the nurses found it…I think he was going to give it to you but instead…I guess he couldn't bring himself to do so…" he added.
Riza carefully unfolded the piece of paper; her eyes scanned the piece of paper.
Dear Mommy,
I miss you so much, daddy says you're never coming back
but I didn't believe him.
The doctor said that I have 'TB' and I was going to die
soon, maybe it's because I watch TV too much. I should've listened to daddy
when he told me to stop watching late night shows…Daddy held my hand tighter,
he was crying. I never saw him cry before. That's alright, don't worry about
me, just be happy on your new engagement…Daddy doesn't know I know about it, I
overheard him and Uncle Chris talk about it. He doesn't seem happy but I am!
I'm glad that I have another daddy to love!
I Love You Mommy.
Yours,
Emily
Roy pulled his lieutenant into a loving embrace. Her hand hung onto his shirt as she cried. Her words were drowned by her chokes and sobs. Riza was desperate; oh, how she longed to speak to her daughter for just once. Just once and her soul could rest.
----------
Days went by and soon enough those days had turned into weeks. A woman wearing a black veil that concealed her sorrowful eyes would be seen standing in front of her daughter's grave. In her arms was a bouquet of flowers, she placed the bouquet on the child's grave. Though the rain in that garden of death, the necropolis, would soon lift, the woman couldn't help but cry and her husband placed an arm around her shoulders.
"Are you ready to go home?" Roy asked quietly.
She nodded, with one last look at Emily's grave Riza turned around and began to walk away.
