I WILL BE HERE
Chapter 1
... No, he didn't die Abgail!
... I don't accept it, he didn't leave me... he promised he would come back... he didn't leave me...
- He promised he'd come back!
- Bill, we have to do something, she's going to go crazy, she's been like this for over a month, she's even lost weight.
- Abgail, I can't stand to see that girl's pain; Jack was like a son to me and so was she.
Rosemary, get some sugar water, let's see if we can calm her down, these nightmares are consuming our Elizabeth; Said Abgail, feeling all the pain that Elizabeth was expressing at that moment.
It had been forty days after the funeral, Rosemary and Abgail had split nightly to care for Elizabeth.
When Jack went to battle in the Northern Territories, he made us promise that we would take care of his bride and who was now his wife, which wasn't even necessary, as everyone in the town of Hope Valle loved Professor Elizabeth. Even Henry, the corrupt one, but who over the last five years ended up reconciling himself with the path of good, even he himself was concerned about our girl, he saw in her a daughter just as Bill did too.
Rosemary returning from the kitchen with the sugar water, tears in her eyes running down her face, commented to Abgail:
— "God give her the necessary comfort to bear such great pain. You know Abgail, you all know my story with Jack and Elizabeth, but these years here have made me a different kind of woman, I never imagined that she would become my best friend, that she would be such an important part of my life. Today you see Henry bring her in his arms, with all the problems he has with his leg, I noticed that Elizabeth only transforms people...
She makes us bring out the best in ourselves... Henry had her in his arms, his eyes were concerned with fear for her.
Abgail added: "Really Rose never thought of seeing that scene of Henry with her passed out in his arms, she turns the biggest stone into a river full of love and Henry is the greatest proof of that.
A knock on the door and Lee appeared...
- Love, Dr Carson and Faith are here, can we enter?
After examining her and giving a sedative to her vein, they saw that Elizabeth was sleeping soundly, but they noticed that even sleeping due to the medication, her eyes came out with tears and several whispers crying out for JACK...
Everyone in the room was heartbroken. As he descended the stairs of Elizabeth's town house, Henry, who was still there, very pale and dejected, told everyone that on leaving the sawmill he found her wandering with an empty and lost look, heading towards the forest and that he decided to catch her. she by the arm and turned back to the city heading to Abgail's house, that's when they heard the hooves of horses nearby. Turning around were several police officers in their red uniforms. She looked into space, but among them there was a very bearded man, I don't know who it was, but when he dismounted, I only noticed that Elizabeth was already jumping on his neck and screaming Jack, you're back. I ran. Abgail, you can't imagine how fast I ran, I ran as fast as I could, she was crying and kissing the bearded mountie. I tried to help our Elizabeth, but I was unable to. It was such an expression of love that I never imagined seeing someone feeling it;
When he looked into the room, Henry noticed that Abgail, Lee, Carson, Faith, and Rose and even he was crying.
- OK! But what happened? Lee asked.
Henry continued to speak:
- The mountie, he was even kind, I think he sees a woman so beautiful, so passionate, suffering so much, made him hold Elizabeth in his arms, he had a look that I can't explain, but he gave me a sense of security. It felt like I already knew him!
- What's up Henry, talk soon? Rose said impatiently.
Henry laughed at Rose's impatience and continued:
— The other policemen began to laugh, making fun of her, and making fun of the situation in which this policeman found himself. Meanwhile, Elizabeth declared herself to him in a way you would never imagine. I tried to get her out of that situation, but it was impossible, she grabbed the mountie's neck and nothing could get her out of there, but he was kind to her, he spoke words of comfort, while hugging her, his name was mountie Philip. It was at that time that one of the policemen called her the woman of life and insinuated that after the boss had fun, everyone could do the same. HAA..., but that's when you can't imagine my anger and when I realized I was already punching the kid that kid. Abgail, she is like a daughter and sister to all of us here in Hope Valle, I do not accept such a thing being talked about under our little girl. She is very pure, she is just love, nobody has the right to say or think that about her.
Henry was furious and everyone noticed and they were the same way too.
- Well, so those bruises came from there? Carson asked already going to examine the face of Henry.
- Yes, my age and my strength are no longer the same and today I realized that. But I don't regret what I did at all and if I could I would have done more.
Everyone in the room was proud of Henry. Rosemary crossed the room and hugged Henry saying:
- Our teacher, taught us the lesson, the homework right, isn't it Henry? Our dear teacher, turned us into better people, we won't let anything or anyone hurt her, not today and not ever. And so the two embraced knowing how much they had changed in Elizabeth's hands.
Lee, very curious, asked with a smile on his face:
- Henry, I think you were in danger, you know they could have arrested you and with your past we wouldn't be able to help you, do you know the gravity of your actions?
Henry, who was being taken care of by Faith and Carson laughed and commented:
- Really, Lee, I wouldn't care much, I had to do that, it was right. But well… in short, I know, yes, that I was going to be arrested, everyone on top of me hitting me, when out of nowhere, I saw Elizabeth giving orders with her hands on her hips and an angry face that I've never seen… you had to see... it was very funny, she facing more than ten policemen; Their boss, that Philip, got his eyes wide when he realized she was going to jump into the fray to save me. You know, I have the impression that I know him, but I don't know where, I don't think I do!
