Chapter 14

There were benefits to trusting God, Rossi reminded himself as the SWAT team entered the bank. If Jet didn’t come out alive, then God would be a liar, and He wasn’t.

With a clear view from a block away, he watched as hostages were escorted outside. One man, covered in blood, was wheeled out on a gurney. Some walked out on their own, others needed assistance. Where was Jet? He gritted his teeth, shifting from one leg to the other.

Peering through the crowd, he kept his eyes trained on the entrance for the woman who would be his wife. Another gurney appeared, but the woman lying on it was pregnant. He exhaled. What was taking Jet so long? He blinked. Paramedics were escorting her out on a stretcher. Losing it, Rossi took off across the street. Everything he’d mastered in track and field came rushing forth as his long legs leaped over the police tape like a hurdle.

He didn’t see any blood. Thank You, Jesus. Good sign. “Wait!” He forced the paramedics to stop as he peered over Jet. When her lids fluttered open, she appeared dazed.

“God,” she whispered as a tear streamed down her face.

Rossi’s thumb absorbed the moisture. “No,” he said, chuckling. “It’s me, Rossi.”

“Rossi?” she repeated and blinked.

He turned and looked at the medic for answers. “Is she injured?”

“More like in shock. She fainted.”

He felt like fainting from relief. Rossi smirked. They could be on stretchers together, holding hands. “Jesetta,” he called softly, holding up a couple of fingers. “How many fingers do you see?” Her eyes crossed before she mumbled two. “How many gray strands do you see?”

She blinked rapidly, then squinted. “Two on your mustache, one on your beard, and two in your hair.”

His eyes widened. “I had one in my head this morning. You gave me the other one.” He and the medic chuckled, Jet looked too exhausted to be amused.

“Rossi.” She sat up too fast and became dizzy. He gathered her in his arms and held on to her while she gripped his shirt.

The paramedic asked her a series of questions, took her blood pressure, and pulse. “We can transport you to the emergency room to get thoroughly checked out.”

Getting to her feet, Jet shook her head. “Can’t. I’m closing on my house.”

Rossi grunted. “Not today.”

“Madam, I would suggest you relax and take it easy the rest of the day. You could’ve been killed.”

“Yes, but my God said no.” She looked up at Rossi. “I was so scared. All I could think about was I was going to die like Diane…” she said as he guided her to his car across the street.

Once he helped her inside, she cried, and Rossi held her. Although he didn’t say a word to her, he silently praised God for her safety and increasing his faith a little more.

One moment, Jet seemed to relax. The next, she was in panic mode. “My phone, my purse!”

“I’ll go back and get them. I want you to stay here and lock the doors,” he instructed, hurrying back to the bank.
