Chapter: Chapter 120Elena. I brought out my family picture and decided to look through it, checking what had gone wrong and how I can make things better in a new light. Some things are better left unsaid because the more I kept obsessing about it the more I was going to be very sad that things were not going my way and then I would have a lot more to answer by the time I was ready. "What are you doing Mommy?" Diego's soft voice filtered into the room looking at me with a little bit of anxiety running through his mind and possibly looking for ways to ask me questions that we're uncomfortable with. "I'm just trying to see what else I can do to make sure that I get everything right. Is that okay with you?' I'm asking such questions without any motive in mind. It was something that I had learned to do over time and I hope that he picked it up and never allowed anybody to gaslighting into saying things that he would not be proud of. "I wanted to ask you about something mom."Whenever Diego started this

Chapter: Chapter 119Marcus. I headed towards my bedroom after work since my companion had decided to be angry with me even though I did not understand what I had done to warrant such an amount of criticism and anger vibrating from her but I decided to let her be for a while. Roy looked at me like I was a lost cause again. "The last time you were here I believed that you had learned something from me but you are completely blank and there's nothing I can do to help you." He said with a small smile on his face. He wasn't a perfectionist but he had a way of bringing out the best out of anyone and for that reason I appreciated his efforts. "It's almost like you didn't learn anything because if you did you would understand that all this woman wants is for you to show some more care and make it not look like she has just been working on her own. I don't think that's too much for her to ask by the way." Maybe that was my own way of interpreting themes but he was blowing it out of proportion and I hated wha

Chapter: Chapter 118Elena. Marcus had opened something inside of me because it made me so endeared to him. I just wanted to see him better and see things going the right way for him instead of watching him suffer. "Why do I feel like you're judging me from the corner of your eye?" He inquired softly. It wasn't because he probably had no idea of what was running through my mind but just wanted to be sure that he was safe and I found myself laughing softly. I have built a reputation for never believing anything that came out of his mouth so it was only normal that he wanted to be sure that he was on the right track and that it wasn't just because I hated him or something of that nature. "Why do I feel like you're always scared about me even when you don't have to be?" I inquired again with a soft smile on my face pretending like I had absolutely no idea. He looked at me for a moment before shaking his head. "If you keep acting like you're clueless, maybe I might have to pretend too." He looked up fro

Chapter: Chapter 117Marcus. Watching the post interview made me smile because Elena had become a ferocious woman who would never allow anyone to get away with stupidity around her because it irritated the hell out of her entire psyche. Nobody would understand the pride that I felt to to what's having such a woman who could stand in front of the public and make them realize that they were only going to be barking up a wrong tree if they wanted to get on her nerves and if they wanted to get things right the best thing that it would do was to forget that she was going to be part of it. "How do they even come up with the most stupid questions and expect that everybody would open their arms wide and receive them? Don't stay, at some point we are going to figure out what this agenda is all about and at some point they have to let it go?"She was only asking because that was the best thing that she could do instead of going crazy about the entire scenario and at some point I began to feel sorry for those peo

Chapter: Chapter 116Elena. Two Weeks Later. I was on my way to making sure that I never had to face this kind of person again. It would not be easy for them to recognize the fact that I was ready to fight for my right but at the same time I didn't bother trying to convince anyone about my new stance. Marcus was completely in the game right now and we had been granted interviews from the left, right and center not caring for what anybody thought about both of us. If I wanted to care about people's opinion about me I would have taken a huge nose dive a long time ago but it wasn't important at all to me and I was going to let it remain that way. "Are you sure that there's nobody willing to speak to you and my behalf or is this something that you just do to make sure that you're not part of the entire system?" One of the journalists asked me with a smile on her face. Somebody who didn't know how these people played would believe that this was an innocent question. She must have been sent by a rival to

Chapter: Chapter 125Marcus. "I don't think I'm happy to announce to you that you can now move around because I'm sure that you might take this as a license to start making a lot of problems." Sarah said with a small smile on her face licking at me like she wanted to say more but was holding herself back and I understood her perfectly. What I didn't understand anyway was the fact that her friend kept fidgeting from one part of the room to the other looking at her watch like something was about to happen. "Is something going on that I'm not part of?" I inquired sharply. I didn't attend this position by just letting things slide or pretending like everything was fine when it obviously wasn't. I wasn't going to make anybody feel better of themselves even when things were not going the right way just because I wanted to make peace. "You shouldn't concern yourself with a lot of things because at some point you just have to just forget about them and just let it be." Dr Sarah spoke and that confirmed my in
