I want you to be happy because you deserve it; I want you to be happy because it makes me happy to see you, the way you were always meant to be. ---- Mark Anthony Poet

    James was sleeping and he was not disturbed by the people with him are Luna and Francois assigned people to him, they have rather kept themselves away from him for they thought that he needs rest because he looks exhausted both body, mind, and soul. Onyx and Agate are both looking at the sleeping James Su at the couch while he embraces the family picture of him and their Lady Bosses in an old frame. They are busy preparing for something that they could share in a meal, they followed what has their Lady Lily has suggested for them to serve to her ex-husband.??

    DING! a message notification was heard in the whole apartment that caught the attention of both Onyx and Agate, they took pity on James as he was very exhausted and it seems that he is deprived of sleep, Onyx and Agate look at each other for they don''t like and want to wake him up.

    DING! another notification sound was heard again, Onyx furrowed her brows and she walks towards the couch and retrieves the cellphone of James Su, she didn''t read the messages, but the name indicated on the screen was his wife''s name ---- SUZY SU. Onyx put it on a silent mode for she doesn''t like the sound to interrupt the peaceful sleeping mode of James Su. The HADES men and women who are with him right now could see and sense the pain that he is having at the moment.

    "If life is so short, I don''t want to be like that, (Agate looks at James Su), I may be a cold-hearted beast but still I treasured the people around me." Agate looks at the sleeping James as he stops for a while and he let out a sigh of frustration, they are setting the dining table for the New Years'' feast. Onyx chuckled, "Actually life is too short wake up each morning with regrets, sleeping in the evening that you even can''t hug the ones you love. So, you better love and took good care of the people who treat you right and treasures you the most. Forget about the ones who don''t even stick nor stand by your sides during your ups and downs. And always believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance ---- change all the bad memories that you have with that person Agate, prove to them that you have change for them, if it changes your life ----let it be, go with the flow. No one said that it would be easy, especially in love and marriage or both, but all you need is to promise that it will be worth it for the second time around." says Onyx.

    "You are right, maybe Mr. James Su didn''t foresee it when he was still married to Lady Lily, and same as with Louie Chen to our little Moon. Viscount Francois will take good care of Lady Luna and he is the father figure to the twins, Louie Chen is too late to atone for his past sins towards our Lady Boss and whatever he will do...it doesn''t mean a thing anymore with what he let go out of his grasp." Agate speaks up his mind.

    Then at around 5:30 pm, Onyx was the one who went beside James and wakes him up, for its'' time for them to eat and James needs to feed himself because yesterday he didn''t touch any type of food and he only drinks brandy or whiskey.

    "Mr. Su! Mr. James Su! wake up Sir. Dinner is served and you have to wake up and eat." Onyx taps James'' shoulder as she wakes him up. "Aarrgh, My head hurts" James uttered as he holds his head by his left hand. "Mr. Su, Please stand up and take a bath, a cold shower may help ease the headache that you are having, and I''ll prepare your hangover soup," says Agate as he walks towards him and Onyx. James looks at them and smiled, and he nods his head. "Go take a shower, Sir, then after that we will have a feast, then you can pour all your hearts out with us. You need to let go of everything that is inside you so that you will not burst out when the time that you are already full," says Onyx in a puzzled tongue, or as for Agate she is speaking in riddles.

    "Thanks, Ms. Onyx, Mr. Agate, Thanks for waking me up and for spending this occasion with me. I''ll do what you have told me. But please, call me James instead of Mr. Su or Mr. James Su, or call me Uncle because in that way I could feel at ease with you guys. I will want us to be a family for today''s feast." says James and his tone are very sad and in pain. He is in pain not in the body, but he had his pain in his emotion. Onyx and Agate look at one another, then Onyx was the first one who looks back at him again. "Yes, Uncle we will do that, as long as we are with you we will address you as Uncle and we will treat you as our family," Onyx told him and gave her the sweetest smile. Agate on the other hand nods his head and pats his shoulder. "Go Clean up Uncle, your clothes are already prepared in your room, we will be having a party tonight," says Agate with a happy tone. James smiled at them and stood up to do their orders.

    When his silhouette vanishes from their sight, Onyx and Agate let out a deep and heavy sigh in unison. This type of mission is much harder than the bloody mission that they have in the past. "Lady Luna is correct, emotional pain is much painful rather than the physical pain. Emotional pain leaves a deep scar and trauma to the person''s heart and it takes so much time on when you are fully healed or recovered," Agate suddenly speaks when he remembers what Lady Luna has told him when she saw him devastated when he broke up with his past girlfriend for 8 years.

    "Even love finds a way (youtube.com/watch?v=DO-9G4nhewY) to your heart once again? Is that the reason why are you so cold to women Agate? Are you not fully healed and recovered?" Onyx asks him. Agate nods his head, "It''s not so easy to heal the pain, It is so hard to trust once again, maybe Lady Luna and our future Lady Boss on Duke Lawrence side trust the new ones for they''ve already what is in their past that''s why they''ve opened up their hearts once more but not to the person from their past but rather to the new ones" Agate added.

    "So the pains and trust issues are one of the reasons why Mr. James Su is in a tremendous depression right now or I shall I say, in and moment from now he may break down?" Onyx asks Agate once more. Agate nods his head, "He needs someone who will listen to everything that he has in his heart, if we need him to get drunk for him to let it out we should do that so that the burden in his heart will be lessened," Agate reasons out.

    ''He is just earning what his lover Suzy Su and his daughter Sofia has sowed from the past, he may be a culprit or one of the victims of love (youtube.com/watch?v=ZWZu9W3skhs) for he had broken wings right now" Onyx once again speaks a riddle word.

    City A Hospital, Patient''s Room

    Nurse Gloria looks at her and she studies her deeply, "So this woman used to be a high and mighty person in front of our Moon and now she acts so pitifully in front of me, let''s see what can you do now that the power you used to have has been stripped off on you." she said to herself. Nurse Gloria went inside the room with a very intimidating aura, she wants Mia to feel that she is not just an ordinary nurse that she can be ordered to do some errands just like what she heard from some other nurses at the hospital,

    "Ms. Mia Chui, your bills are already settled. You can call your family now to fetch you here. Your wounds are partially healed and all you need to do is take a rest at your home" Nurse Gloria told Mia who is sitting at the bed and staring blankly at her. Mia let out a deep sigh, "I don''t have a family anymore. My husband divorces me a couple of days ago and my in-laws are very disappointed and angry with me. I don''t have anyone left with me anymore, whoever paid my bills here please do give my thanks. If it will not trouble you, could you make some arrangements at the Convent of St. Agnes who caters to homeless and battered wives, I will ask them if they can accommodate me for the time being until I can settle for a place that I can live" Mia pleaded Nurse Gloria and she gave a sweet but faint smile.

    "In your dreams, I won''t follow your orders not unless the bosses said so, you hurt our Moon before and you used to kick her out when Sofia was inside your home even though the Elder Chens'' has already ordered you to accept her. Now, you must also feel how to be humiliated," Nurse Gloria said to herself.
