The Bodyguard

Chapter 12

I woke up in a hospital bed again. When I realized where I was my heart started racing, I looked around and saw my father fast asleep

'Dad?!'

'Beyonce! Oh Thank God you are awake!'

'My baby...'

'She's fine.'

'Shawn..'

'He's fine, don't worry about it. You just got too nervous and Shawn got hit on the shoulder, nothing too bad. I already apologized to him, you know...'

'Right.'

'Your mother is coming and your sister too'

'They are?! You are gonna let them see me?'

'Of course! You know...I mean...Baby girl, I'm sorry about everything! It took a while for this old man to realize he was doing the wrong thing! But there wasn't one day that I didn't miss you around the house!' He said holding my hand and crying 

'What made you change your mind?'

'I thought I could control you. That you were just these helpless person that could do anything I wanted. Lyndell had offered me a deal, money. I know, I feel ashamed now, but at the time, I was greedy and...Well...Tho when I saw how independent you were, fighting your way through survival, I thought...She's all grown. I can't control her anymore.'

'Right.'

'Please, darling. I really regret what I did. Can you please forgive me?'

'You sold me!'

'Not the first time! Just the last time, when he after you I mean...'

'Right.' I repeated not looking at him

'Please, will you forgive me?'

'I don't know...I need to see Shawn.'

'You can't get out of bed just yet, honey. You are still recovering. He's fine'

'What if you are lying to me?'

'I'm not lying!'

'I don't trust you'

'Oh my God, my baby girl!' I heard my mother's voice for the first time in years, my sister was right next to her, she was so grown. We were all crying with our happy tears, hugging each other, apologizing and everything else. It was great to have them back. 'I looked for you afterwards, but Lyndell wouldn't let talk to you and...'

'Mom, it's past. It's ok, I forgive you. Tho how come dad changed his mind about you talking to me?'

'Oh he doesn't tell me what to do anymore. We split up. He has another family'

'She found out?! Yes, that's great! I mean...You know, I'm sorry'

'He told me'

'You did?' I asked my dad, he nodded and I smiled. Now he knew I had forgiven him.

I was able to see Shawn the next day since he was a little better than me, he came to see me in my room. He was fine, just a little pale and moving around a little bit weird because of his shoulder. We were all happy it was over, we could live our lives now without worrying about anything. 2 days later we were both out of the hospital and since we didn't have a home anymore, we stayed with my mother and my sister. 

As Lyndell had died I inherited all of his fortune. Tho I didn't want any of it, so I sold the house and gave the money up for charity. The rest of the money I knew I would need so I kept it and me and Shawn bought ourselves a brand new house close to my mother's house, in Houston. I wasn't charged with murder because he was an intruder in my house and it was considered legit defense.

The next time I was in the hospital wasn't at all bad news, in fact, it was the best news I've ever had. My baby girl was born, Blue Ivy Carter. She was so precious and beautiful. Her hands and feet were so tiny and she was crying desperately until she saw me and Shawn, then she calmed down. I breast fed her and it was one of the best sensations ever. 

We took her home to her brand new room. We had started our lives and nothing in the world would tear us apart. Nothing and no one.
