Jack stood there for a few seconds as a cold sensation moved around his chest to his whole body, he felt his stomach churning as the contents of it bubbled to get out.

He turned around and looked at Sophie and Meadow, who were standing at a place with their eyes widened.

They were looking at the dead bodies, shell-shocked. And didn't knew how to react.

Jack moved and hugged Sophie in his arms. "Don't worry you are safe now." He whispered in her ears.

It was only after feeling his grip on her body did she broke out of her stupor and sighed in relief that they were safe now.

She moved her head and looked Jack in the eyes, however, soon enough realization hit her as she felt his body leaning on her for support, and his eyes closing against his will.

"Jack..." A shudder moved through her body and she kneeled on the floor with Jack's head in her lap.

Meadow saw him unconscious and her eyes widened in terror, she ran quickly and called emergency services on her phone.

"Jack... Wake up..." Sophie patted his face a few times, she still didn't register the fact that he was already unconscious.

However, slowly realization struck her and she found out that Jack was in serious condition, she felt a warm fluid on her legs and looking down she noticed that her pink skirt turning a shade of deep red.

Her eyes stayed wide for a few moments.

"Ahhh.....!" A harrowing shriek moved through the whole apartment.

Meadow, who was talking with emergency services moved the phone away and turned her head around to look at Sophie in terror.

The high pitch of her voice made goosebumps stand on Meadow's body.

"Jack, wake up... Please...!!" Tears fell from her eyes as she grabbed his head by both of her arms and closer to her stomach.

However no matter how much she tried she was unsuccessful in opening his eyes.

Meadow hung up the phone and ran towards Sophie, hugging her from behind she also kneeled on the floor.

Just now she heard her cry and could tell that she was in deep pain. "Don't worry, he will be fine."

Meadow tried to calm her down, however, her words did not affect Sophie. She started to cry louder and louder while she kept hugging his body tightly, scared that the moment she let go of him, she will lose him forever.

"It's my fault! I shouldn't have called him...!" More tears fell down her eyes as she looked at Meadow finally.

"Mom, please save him, please, I beg you...!"

Meadow saw her condition and a pang of pain moved through her chest, this was the first time she has seen Sophie cry like this.

She was always a strong girl and did everything for her with calm composure, however, now seeing her condition like this, Meadow was hurt.

Just by her desperation, Meadow could tell that Sophie loved Jack.

Jack on the other hand could hear the faint voices of Sophie in his head and soon enough even that stopped.

'Am I dying?' This was his last thought before he turned unconscious and a tear moved out of his eye.

He didn't want to die so soon as he was worried about his girls, in the past few days he has witnessed many strange incidences and he wondered, who would protect the girls after him.

Regret moved through his chest, as his body started to cool down.

"Sophie, let him go, the ambulance is here..." Meadow saw two men with a stretcher rushing into the apartment and shook Sophie's shoulder so she let his body go.

However, Sophie was in no condition to listen to Meadow's words, her hairs were disheveled as she cried continuously.

Meadow gulped her saliva and grabbed Sophie's shoulder tightly. "Move away from him...!" She pulled her daughter back.

"No... Mom... Please..." Sophie tried to move towards Jack's unconscious body again, however, Meadow hugged her tightly, so the nurses could take him to the hospital.

"Don't worry, he will be ok, let him go to the hospital." Meadow patted her back, again and again, to calm her down.

This was the first time she has seen her daughter so broken down in many years. Sophie was a strong girl and took care of her while her health was bad.

She didn't even cry like this when Meadow herself got her leg injured, neither did she cry when her dad left.

"Mom..." Sophie moved her hand around Meadow and buried her head in her shoulder, he couldn't bear to see Jack like this.

"Mam, take this." A nurse came and handed Meadow, Jack's phone.

Meadow looked at the male nurse and nodded, moving her hand she grabbed the phone and saw that it was buzzing.

She saw the one that was calling and she read out the name.

"Cassie..." Was written on it. Meadow knew Cassie as they were neighbors.

She picked up the call.

"Jack! Why aren't you picking up my phone?!" Cassie's loud and angry voice came from the other side of the phone.

Meadow turned silent at her words, she didn't knew how to respond.

'What should I tell her, I am sure she will be angry and worried.'

She knew the fact that both Jack and Cassie were childhood friends. And from her voice, she could also tell that Cassie was worried for Jack.

'I have to tell her the truth...' Meadow thought.

And after a moment of silence, she finally opened her mouth. "Cassie, it's me, Meadow."

Cassie who was about to berate Jack more, when suddenly heard a feminine voice, gulped her words back and then a furrow appeared on her head.

"Meadow? Where is Jack?" She asked, this time her voice gentle.

Cassie knew about the fight between Jack and Sophie. 'Has he gone to Sophie's new house?' She thought and steered her car in the direction of Meadow's apartment.

As she was driving on the road where Jack went she was now pretty close to the apartment.

While driving she saw some ambulances rushing in the opposite direction with some police cars, however, she didn't pay much attention to them.

For her, Jack was more important right now, the way he ran away from the house meant that it was a serious case, and now Meadow has picked up the call.

'Did Sophie get in some kind of trouble?' A thought moved through her brain and she focused on the call again.
