Tyrone Argyros POV

"Good job, ton-ton, I didn't think you had it in you." Zelda said on the phone while picking my clothes for the day. It's been three months since we got the news of her pregnancy, and her so called ton-ton calls her everyday to tell her the progress of whatever they're doing.

She never told me who this ton-ton is, the only thing I know about him is that he is a crucial key to her plan. I'm starting to get really angry at this situation. This whole revenge thing is starting to get on my nerves, it's really taking its toll on her both physically and mentally which is not good neither for the baby's health nor hers.

I don't care how selfish I may sound, nothing is more important than my family for me. She already fainted thrice in those three past months, and the doctors advised her against stress or she could risk losing our baby.

I walked her way, hugged her from behind, and took her phone from her, cutting the call off in the process. She sighed, "Tyrone, that was an important call." She said with a hint of fatigue in her voice.

"Not as important as your health." I retorted before turning her in my arms and hugging her to my chest. "Honey, you need to take it easy for our child sake, for your sake." I said as calm as I could manage.

"I wish I could, but not now. I'm so close to ending this whole ordeal once and for all." She assured, touching my right cheek gently. "Then, I'll get all the rest in the world." She added.

"What if it's too late then?" She looked up frowning, "baby, I'm not telling you to abandon everything you are doing, I'm trying to be as understanding as I could that's why I've been tolerating this shi- thing for awhile now." I corrected myself when I saw that her frown deepened. "But I'm not going to sit still watching you harming yourself and our unborn child in your search for redemption." I said sternly, I won't risk my family's lives no matter how heavy or pricy the price I have to pay to achieve that goal.

"I know I'm being unreasonable and unfair to you for always wandering in the past, but if I don't finish this I won't have the peace of mind that was snatched from me almost a decade ago. Those nightmares will be permanent residents of my dreams." She clarified. "Jason was my brother, my father, my mother, my friend, my everything at that time. He was my protector, my confidante, and everything I really ever needed or wanted." I felt a pang of pain mixed with jealousy when those words left her mouth. "I'm not saying this because I still have any kind of unwanted feelings towards him neither am I saying it to hurt you. I'm just saying that I owe him this, this is the least I could do to the person who spent his whole life doing nothing but protecting me. Until his last breath was taken." She was in tears by now.

No matter how I hated the way she talked about him, I couldn't help but feel both sad and grateful. Sad because my wife lost the only person that cared for her in this godforsaken world and stood by her side in her most vulnerable moments, but grateful for how he treated her. That he made sure she was safe and protected even if it costed him his own life, which did eventually.

I wish I could meet him to beat him and hug him at the same time. Beat him to a pulp for making sure to stay imprinted in my wife's mind even in death, and hug him for everything he did for her.

I hugged her tight when her memories started flowing in her mind like a heart-wrenching symphony that refused to end.

"He died saving me, why couldn't he just leave me and save himself. Then, I wouldn't be feeling this numbing pain every time he crosses my mind."
