Sonny had gone in there, asked for Carly Quartermaine, and had been told that patient information could not be given out. Then, he had tried to storm past the woman to enter the 'treatment' area, but the armed guard had stopped him. He'd tried sweet-talking the woman, bribing her, everything! Yet, the same response had been given each time. Johnny had thought that maybe Sonny would ask him to "take care" of them so he could go in there and find Carly, but he'd just left the office all-together.
Now, he seemed as if he was thinking of a different way to get in there.
Sonny reached out and punched the down button, all the while keeping his eye on the door of the clinic. With the armed gaurd, there was no way short of 'making him disappear' to get in and stop Carly. She may not even be in there you idiot!
But the chance that she was...even the smallest hope. If she murdered his child, he would make her life miserable, so help him God!
The elvator sounded, opened, and Johnny and him stepped in. Taking one last look at the doors he had just emerged from not long ago, he punched the button for the lobby...and prayed...prayed for a miracle.
"So, by this Thursday Meli shoud be back in and we can have a meeting between all three of us on what we plan to do."
Dani walked with Carly to the bank of elevators, having finallly gotten the girl to abandon the abortion route. She didn't really know if there was anything she could do to help her, but she would put her all into trying.
"I don't know about Thursday. I think AJ has some big lunch or something or the other planned. I have to be there," Carly said as she pressed the down button.
"Well... That's even better. I don't really want to spring this on Meli. Is Friday better? Or maybe sometime next week?"
Carly chewed on her lip, one of her bad habbits that came out when she was nervous about something. Boy, if she wasn't nervous about taking AJ down, then she didn't know what to be nervous about. How about that abortion you were about to have?
Oh yeah, there was that. Carly sighed, shocked that she would have killed this child. Her child. No matter its paternity, she would love this baby. She would love him or her just as she loved Michael. Even if she had to...to...get a...God! She hoped it didn't come down to that.
"How about I just call you later this week, when my schedule is more complete or whatever. The only way I got down here today was by telling AJ I was going shopping. He's pretty strict about how I spend my time, besides being his wife and mother to his child. The number on your card...its...its correct, right?"
"Yeah! Yeah, it is! Okay." Dani didn't know how to end the conversation, so she just hugged Carly.
Carly pulled back. "What was that for," she asked with a crazed look on her face. "You know...you're really...strange!"
Dani laughed, "Why thank you Carly! I aim to be 'strange'. But the hug, well, that was for listening to me...for putting your faith in me and allowing me to help you."
"Okay..." Carly said, still unsure of Daniella Carzuti, but she hoped...no she prayed that she would be able to help her. Her and her babies.
"Well, I should get going. I'll call." Carly stepped into the now open elevator and pushed the button for the lobby, giving a weak wave as the doors closed her in.
"How long does an abor...abort...one of those things take?" Sonny asked Johnny. As if he would know.
"I'm not really sure," Johnny responded, amazed he would even be asked a question like that. "I could... I could call someone I guess..."
The doors to one of the elevators sounded open, and Sonny stormed over to confront Carly. He slowed when he saw it was just an older woman and a...child.Damn it! he thought.
"Who," Sonny barked at Johnny.
"Sir?" the confused guard answered. I'm going to kill Francis myself!
"Who are you going to call?"
As Johnny was about to answer with no answer, the doors to another set of elevators sounded open. This time only one person stepped out.
Carly
Sonny stormed over to her, yanking her towards him.
"Hey man! What the... Let go of me Sonny!" Carly yelled as she yanked her arm free of him.
"Just who in hell do you think you are man?" Carly asked angrily, rubbing her arm that was a little sore.
"Who do I think I am? WHO DO I THINK I AM? Who the hell are you? Carly, I knew from the beginning you were crazy... Nuts! I knew you couldn't handle things..."
"What are you..."
"Cierre su boca! You listen to what I have to say for once!"
Carly blinked up at him, hoping the threatening tears would stay at bay. She had never seen Sonny like this. Never. He's going to kill me, she thought.
"How... How could you Carly? How could you do this? Was this just another way to destroy me? To destroy another person in your life? First Michael, then Jason, now me? How dare you!"
Carly couldn't hold the tears any longer. Not only was she scared out her mind but she was angry that he would attack her like this.
"Fist off, I don't even know what the hell you are talking about!"
Sonny started to interrupt, but she quickly cut him off.
"W-w-who are you to to follow me...and harrass me...and and say all those things...You don't even know me! Get out of my way Sonny, before I scream for help." Carly thought it was a bold threat, but obviously she miscalculated the harshness of her voice.
"You scream all the hell you want. No one's going to save you. A lying whore like you. The world would be a cleaner place if you weren't on it!"
Carly stepped back at those words. They were words she had always thought of herself...believed were true at times, but to hear them...like that...
"Whatever I did, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, okay. Please let me go!" Carly pleaded. She looked to Johnny for help, but there was probably so little he could do and the look he gave her showed that.
"Sorry? SORRY? Is that all you can say? You kill my child and and you're sorry? That's just not good enough Carly. Sorry won't cut it this time!"
How does he know she thought. "I...I...Who told you?"
Sonny didn't answer. He was too damn mad to answer.
"WHO TOLD YOU?" Carly asked again, louder and angrier this time.
"No one had to tell me Carly. I saw you. I saw you get dropped off. I saw you throw something away and put on that ridiculous costume. I saw you walk down the sidewalk, so I followed. An abortion clinic. God, Carly, couldn't you have at least told me? Didn't I deserve to know? You could have just had the child and given it to me...you didn't have to murder him...her...my child!"
Sonny took a menacing step towards Carly, as she took two back, her back crashing into the wall that had seemingly appeared from nowhere. Johnny took a step forward, to try and shield Carly from Sonny's impending...well whatever...but he was stopped with a gloved hand in his face.
"Don't come any closer Johnny. I will take care of this myself."
"But sir..."
"I said stand back Johnny, or you can find yourself another job immediately."
Those words made Johnny hesitate, then take a few steps back.
"Oh, well thanks a lot Johnny!" Carly said through her tears. She turned her attention to the man in front her of...the man who could possibly end it all.
"You can't just kill me here! Can you? NO! You can't! So...just move man!"
When Sonny made no attempt to distance himself from her, she tried again. "Do you know who I am? I am Mrs. AJ Quartermaine! I...I...I have money...and power...and you can't just kill me in in in public! I demand you let me go!"
"You demand I let you go? You can't now, nor ever make demands of me Carly. I'm not Jason! I'm not your savior...I'm your worst damn nightmare."
"Call for a car Johnny. I wanted it five minutes ago!"
"Yes sir." Johnny responded as he turned to make the call in private. At least he's gonna kill her in private.
"You can't do this Sonny. I said I was sorry...I...I didn't have the abortion! There, are you satisfied! I didn't do it! Now please step aside so I can leave." Carly hoped her pleas would be heard by Sonny... By anyone! "I didn't kill your precious baby so let me go," she said more forcefully. She would not be intimidated by him. She wiped at her tears and tried to hold the rest back.
Sonny's eyes instantly dropped to her belly. How can she so casually lie about a subject like this. "You really are a lying whore, aren't you." It was more a statement than a question, thoughts than actual words, but they still escaped from his lips.
Carly quickly raised her right hand and delivered an astounding smack to Sonny's cheek. She then brought up her knee and kicked him where it would hurt most.
Johnny didn't hear Sonny's groans of pain, but rather felt Carly push him over as the cell phone fell out of his hand. Reaching for it, he heard his boss yell "Get her!" and quickly proceeded to do just that. But the girl was fast. She had already reached the doors. As Johnny moved towards the doors to catch up with her, Sonny pushed him out of the way and went after her himself.
"You're not gonna get away with it this time, Carly! I won't let you!"
A panicked Carly looked up both sides of the street. There seemed to be more people now than there were before. She would never get far. He must have really lost it this time. She went straight ahead instead, attempting to cross the street. As she ran out, she heard someone scream and stopped to view the commotion. What she didn't know was that they had been screaming at her. By the time she realized it was too late.
