"He's my father, I don't have anyone else apart him. Please save him I don't care do whatever you can but he needs to be saved!"

"Calm down Aria. Listen, we can't operate him now, he will die immediately. You should understand that." Gerard responded, trying to make her understand.

Aria sighed. Deep down, she knew that Gerard was right. Ben was indeed old and weak and she knew he wouldn't survive the operation. But she didn't want to lose him.

"Is he awake? I can meet him right now?" Aria asked to which Gerard nodded, "He's been waiting for you. Come on."

Gerard then led her to her father's room. Aria opened the door and got in. Her heart ached as she looked at her father who was lying on the bed, with several tubes connected to his body.

"Hey dad…" she said softly, approaching her father. Ben looked at her and smiled weakly, "Ary. You came..."

"Always." Aria replied, sitting on the chair next to his bed. She took his hand in hers, "How are you f-feeling d-dad?" Her voice cracked slightly. She was trying hard not to cry.

"Everywhere hurts, Ary." Ben replied, tears in his eyes. "I don't know if I can take it any longer. I don't want to take it any longer. I'm sorry. I won't fight this. I want to be in peace.."

"It's okay, dad." Aria reassured, "Y-you don't need to f-fght this, alright? I understand that you want peace. I won't h-hold you back."By the time she was done with her sentence, she was a crying mess.

"I'm so sorry…" Ben apologized, "I didn't want it to end like this. I love you, Ary. I really do. You're my daughter and I'll always love you. I'll always be there for you." He smiled at his daughter, "Please don't cry."

"I love you too, dad." Aria bit her lip to suppress a sob. "I love you so much…"

Just then, Gerard entered the room and looked at Aria, "Hey. It's time foe your dad to sleep. You can come and meet him, hopefully, tomorrow. Okay?"

Aria nodded and smiled at her father before she stood up. She placed a soft kiss on his forehead before leaving.

"Hey Rach, I'm ho--" Aria stopped when she saw Rachel and Rick, Rachel's boyfriend naked on the couch.

"Oh my god!!",Rachel shouted and quickly covered Rick with one of tbe cushion.

"There are rooms in the house!" Aria said and went to her room, not wanting to deal with that right now.

"See what you did? I told you to go in your room but No!! you wanted to try a new spot for fuck's sake!" Rick said to Rachel, he was embarassed.

"What? don't be shy. There's nothing that you have that other boys don't." Rachel replied and sighed.

When Aria went to her room, she started feeling dizzy and fell unconscious on the floor.

Meanwhile, At the hospital,

"Alright people…" Alexander stood up removing all the tubes connected to his body, "I'm going to thank the person who saved my life because I actually have Manners."

Kenzo and Mike rolled their eyes at him, "Sure...sure." Mike then mumbled, "My brother's a saint." Mike mumbled."

"No! You haven't been discharged yet!" John exclaimed.

"I know that." Alexander replied, "I'm gonna get myself discharged." Then he left without giving anyone the chance to say anything.

After signing his discharge papers, he got someone to find out where Aria was staying and he went there.
