Two months later, while Gerard was driving to go to a company to have a meeting, his phone was ringing, it was his father, the phone was a bit away of Gerard so when he was trying to reach it badly, he didn't pay attention to the road and almost hit a person so he turn the wheel to the extreme right to avoid killing anyone but he collided with the wall. People outside called an ambulance immediately and Shally was one of the people there, when she saw Gerard's car she recognised it so she rushed to see if he's still alive; the ambulance arrived and got Gerard outside of the car, he was unconscious and Shally accompanied him to the hospital; she waited there for 2h then the doctor came out, Shally jumped to him worried: "
× How is he doctor? Is he alive?
× Don't worry ma'am, he's doing fine he just have a broken leg, he'll have to rest for a month then he'll be fine; we even informed his family to come take him home today, he's conscious now, you can see him if you want.
× Thank you doctor."
Shally rushed inside to see Gerard and there was the surprise for Gerard but it wasn't a pleasant one: "
× (Not believing it) Shally? Am I having a nightmare?
× Hey! Are you okay?
× (Still doesn't believe it) Yeah but...what are you doing here?
× I was around when you did the accident so I came with you to make sure you're okay; I need to leave now, your family is on her way, I don't want them to find me here or things will get bad. I'm glad you're alive."
Just when Shally finished her sentence they heard a woman shouting Gerard's name: "Gerard, my son! Oh my god! Are you okay?" And Oups, Shally didn't leave yet; Margret, Andrew and Gwen were worried about Gerard that they didn't pay attention to Shally so when the young woman saw that, she tried to sneak out without being noticed but she didn't get lucky in that because after Margret got relieved seeing her son safe and sound, she noticed that there's a woman in that room that looked familiar so said: "Wait! You...are Shally, aren't you?" Shally turned not so happy about the situation she is in but tried to smile sympathetically: "
× Hi! I'm Shally.
× (With joy) Oh my god! Hi Shally, were you leaving without saying a word? And me who's been impatient to meet you! I can't believe I meet you today, I'm so happy to finally meet my son's future wife." Said Margret flying from happiness and Shally was just smiling awkwardly then Gerard interrupted: "
× Mom! You should pay attention to me I'm the one who did the accident but you are occupied with your son's future wife? Unbelievable.
× Well you are the one who refused to introduce her to me before so now that I got the chance I took it, she's is so beautiful and lovely.
× Thank you ma'am, it's the beauty of your eyes that see's me beautiful." Answered Shally shyly.
× "Oh my god! And she's sweet too, I love this girl Gerard. Shally call Margret, everyone does.
× I can't call you by your name you're older than me after all but I can call you aunt Margret, if you don't mind of course.
× (Laughed highly) She's respectful too, she's perfect Gerard, I'm proud of you."
Gerard put his hand on his head being annoyed and was thinking how did things get out of control and how is he going to clear this mess he's in because he lied to every single person in that room and if anyone discovers the lie he has been told, all the others will and Gerard will be exposed. Shally didn't know how to act, what to do or what to say to get out of that place and Gwen was boiling from anger to see Gerard's mother so happy to know that Gerard has a woman in his life even if she knew it's a lie, even Shally's presence was bothering her, she was thinking: "What the hell is this one doing here? And she got to see Gerard first, are they really dating? Did Gerard hide this from us?" then to see if it's really the case, she sat on the edge of Gerard's bed putting her hand on his cheek to irritate Shally saying: "Gerard, you freaked us out, thank god you're okay." but the one who got irritated from this action was Margret so she interrupted her: "I'm pretty sure you worried Gwen honey but not as much as Shally did, why don't you come to my side and leave the space to Shally and Gerard?" This sentence was like a shot in Gwen's heart.
Just few minutes later, Gerard got the permission to leave the hospital, his state wasn't critic he just needed to take care of his leg not moving it for a month and go back to the doctor to see if he can step on it; Shally tried to leave them informing them that she has to go to work but Margret told her that this doesn't suit Shally at all leaving her boyfriend with the broken leg and go work, the woman said smiling: "It's not like that, it's just...his mother is by his side so are his friends and I'm pretty sure there are servants at home so I thought that...he won't really need me and I don't want to bother you." To try make things look better but it didn't work, Gerard's mother refused any excuses and told Shally to go with them home and Gerard was still annoyed by the situation he found himself in, he murmured to himself: "I wish I died better than waking up and finding this mess". After arriving to the villa of the DIAS's, Shally was so impressed from how big is Gerard's house, she obviously knew it's big but she didn't expect it to be that much, this is the first time she steps in a villa like this or even see a room like Gerard's, Gerard's room was in the size of Shally's whole house. So now Gerard is laying in bed to have a rest and Margret designated Shally the responsible of Gerard's comfort; both Shally, Gerard and Gwen tried to stop this from happening but the old woman didn't give them any chance, she was so happy to see Gerard's girlfriend that she wanted to leave them alone with no one to disturb them, after all, she tried for years to convince Gerard to have a woman in his life but she couldn't, in the beginning she wanted him to have a woman from his society but then she only cared about Gerard giving a chance to love in his life no matter who the woman is or where she comes from. And here we are now with Gerard and Shally alone in Gerard's room after two months of not seeing or hearing anything of each other, they were silent for a while then Shally broke the silence: "
× Hi! Again?
× (Pissed off) I can't believe this is actually happening.
× Neither do I but you can still say hi back.
× Yeah sorry, hi, again."
Shally's phone started ringing, it was Henry who was calling since she didn't get to work he worried, before Shally answered she commented in a low voice: "Oh shit! I forgot to call him" then answered the call to explain herself: "
× Henry! Hi!
× Shally? Where the hell are you, you didn't come to work or call, are you okay? Did something happen to you? Where are you?
× It did happen but not to me; Gerard got into an accident and while I was coming to work I saw his crushed car so I couldn't just leave him like that, I went with him to the hospital and few things happened and got out of control that I forgot to call you, I'm so sorry that I made you worry and I'm sorry for not coming to work.
× Gerard? Gerard DIAS? Is he okay?
× I don't know."
Shally put her hand on the phone and asked Gerard with a low voice: "Is your family name DIAS?" Gerard smiled when he heard this question and answered: "Yup! That's me" then Shally resumed the phone call: "
× Yes it's him and he's okay, he just broke his leg. Look Henry, I'm so sorry but I promise I'll make this up.
× (Sighed) Okay fine, I'm just glad your fine.
× You are such a darling, love you."
Shally cut the call and Gerard was surprised from hearing Shally's conversation with Henry, he cleared his throat before asking her hesitatingly: "
× Is there...anything between you...and Henry?
× Yeah there is, a strong friendship.
× (Impressed) Wow! That's nice. So how's your life going since the last time we met?
× It's like a beautiful dream; I'm working with Henry, I bought a house not very big but it's not bad too, I got my parents living with me, I brought them a woman to take care of them when I'm not at home, I have more time to spend with them and I have enough money to take care of all these, it's exactly the life I've been dreaming of since years, it's so beautiful to be true but let's keep optimistic.
× I'm happy for you.
× What about you? Your mom still thinks you're dating me, I thought you'll tell her that we broke up after few days?
× (Whispering) I was going to tell her so but I couldn't, I knew she wouldn't stop of bringing the subject up so I left her think that, I didn't think we'll meet again in a situation like this.
× (Whispering) Then how didn't she look for me or ask to see me?
× (Whispering) She actually did but I told her that once I am ready, I'll propose to you and if you say yes then I'll introduce you to her.
× (Shouting) What?
× Shhhhhhhh! It's not like I'm really proposing to you it's just a lie.
× And what are we going to do now? Any genius lies?"
