It never occurred to Philip Winnie that he would let go of his grip, certainly not what he expected so he quickly grabbed Winnie and pulled her.
They fell on the grass safely, while Philip was still panting with shock Winnie got up but remained in a position to be above Philip.
"You want less to lose" Winnie said in reality.
Philip's hand stretched out, embracing Winnie and clutching her tightly. Now Winnie could hear Philip's heart beating very hard.
"I'm sorry, I just don't like you being so close to other men. Next time I won't do this again" he said.
There was an earnest tone in every word Philip said, unfortunately Winnie could not believe it even though she was crying blood. The next time he was near another man Philip would definitely do another reckless act, then regret later and apologize.
Such is the turn of the toxic relationship wheel, trapping in unhealthy fear.

He wakes up early and prepares breakfast, Brian's favorite meal. She told Nicki that she would visit her ex-husband with food, but now Brian must be back nourished and lost his appetite as before.
Although troublesome but Camila should not miss this golden opportunity, he must regain Brian's heart for the smooth running of his business.
Arriving at Wilson's residence, Brian was still sleeping because he had been drunk all night, the smell of stinging alcohol from his mouth that opened to take a breath.
Almost can not stand Camila immediately opened the window so that the air can enter and at least fade the smell of alcohol.
"Brian. I brought you your favorite food," call Camila soft.
Slowly Brian frowned, his head felt intense throbbing and painful. While he tries to wake up Camila brings him some hot soup.
"It will keep you fresh" he said, thrusting the bowl.
"No, thank you" said Brian.
He completely lost his appetite more than the time of Maya's death, again lying on the bed he began to close his eyes again.
"You can't go on like this, you know that, right?" camila said while keeping the bowl.
"What use? I used to have hope in continuing to look for Winnie, now she's really gone."
"There's still me and Nicki, don't you love Nicki too? at least do this for Nicki, she has no father but you" Camila said.
"What should I do?" ask Brian.
"Try your sport, go to work. By meeting a lot of people you will slowly feel better and not lonely anymore, or what if we take a vacation?" his suggestion.
"For what? I sold the company, it's no use."
"What's? you sold? since when?" ask Camila in disbelief.
"It's been a while, even then Winnie's still around."
Brian's days as an alcoholic are back in progress, he will be drunk in the west until unconsciousness. Sometimes he gets kicked out for making a mess, like the one that happened that night.
He accidentally grabbed a young man and spilled a drink on his jacket, the young man got angry and hit Brian all out.
The condition of Brian who was drunk of course could not retaliate, he was lying on the floor with a condition drenched in blood. The barkeeper immediately threw him into the street because it disturbed other visitors, in the cold night his consciousness was slowly lost.
......................
Although his life is now much better but he must still work to be able to eat, at least if there is more money he can use for Nagisa's tuition.
Working in a restaurant as a dishwasher sometimes allows him to bring unsold food scraps, that day even the restaurant owner gave him raw meat for him to cook.
Impatiently wanting to go home and make delicious dishes he walked hastily along the trotar, but saw a man lying on the street his steps became slow.
Frowning, looking at the man, he was shocked to remember that it was Brian Winnie's father, and he immediately shook Brian's body and made sure he was still alive.
Then he struggled to bring Brian home, so open the door Nagisa who had been waiting in shock instead of playing his mother helped Brian in.
"What happened to her?" ask Nagisa.
His mother shook her head, and they immediately brought him in and laid him in the room. His mother quickly changed Brian's clothes that were dirty because of the blood and the smell of alcohol, and also treated the wounds on Brian's face.
With a gesture he explains to Nagisa that he found Brian lying on the road, so he takes him home.
"Sister Winnie once said Brian's uncle was an alcoholic after his wife's death, when he was cured by Camila's care. Now that they're separated, Winnie's departure definitely makes her return to being an alcoholic without anyone taking care of her" Nagisa explained.
They are certainly concerned about Brian's situation, especially Nagisa's mother. He knew Brian was so mentally weak that he easily became an addict, he said he would treat Brian in return to Winnie.
Nagisa nodded in agreement, she used to help Winnie a lot until she could finally go to college. Now it is time to repay that kindness.
Two days Brian was unconscious, he also had a thug that made them worried. Fortunately, the time passed quickly and he could wake up even though he was weak, Nagisa's mother gave him soup to add energy but Brian refused.
"You shouldn't have helped me, let me die after my family. People like me are no longer useful" Brian said weakly.
Brakes
Suddenly Nagisa hit the table, of course it made them shocked.
"If you want to die at least wait until uncle is healthy first!" nagisa Hardik.
"Sister Winnie has helped me a lot, as long as uncle knows I also wanted to kill myself but he saved me. Not only that he also gave me a job so that I could pay tuition and tutoring, I have a lot of debt to Winnie but have not had time to repay. Now I have a chance to repay Winnie's kindness through caring for uncle, at least let us repay Winnie's kindness first so that I am not ashamed when I meet Winnie's sister in heaven later."
Brian was speechless, how serious Nagisa was with his words. Nagisa's mother added that she sincerely takes care of Brian, she will be very grateful if Brian wants them to take care of until healed. After that Brian was free to do whatever he wanted.
Clear water melted on Brian's cheek, even after death Winnie was still the daughter of his pride.
