XXVIII. Moving On
Last Updated:
2021-05-15 19:04:08I didn’t stay over at Killiad’s place since we’re going to spend the following day together. So instead of going to work the next day I just called Emily to come over to my place to finalize some things.
Emily didn’t bother to ask me why I was at home working the moment her eyes fell on the boxes cluttered on the floor. I was itching to tell her that I’m moving out but that was just plain obvious since I didn’t bother to unpack everything that was already in the box a week ago. I wanted to tell her that I’m moving in with Killiad but I’m too afraid to see judgment in her eyes. But then it’s better if she heard it from me rather from the other human being that would 'surely’ exaggerate the whole thing into something as huge as winning the lotto or something. And yes, I’m talking about Arya.
She was gathering the documents on the coffee table when I hesitantly told her about my plan on moving in with Killi

Colors of Heartbreak XLXV. Colors of Heartbreak
There are thousands of reasons to be sad, angry, and cry but there are millions of reasons to be happy, thankful, and trust again.It's what life taught me.We could always find a reason to run away. To never look back. Heartbreak does that to a person. Sometimes we focused too much on the hurt and pain we failed to see the positive things that surround us.Heartbreak made me see clearly what's in front of me. Yes, it made me doubt myself and everyone around me but it taught me to take a leap of faith.The moment I stepped a foot inside Killiad’s building memories rushed in like a swirl of colors and emotion.“Welcome home Mrs. Knight.” The head of security greeted me as I walked by his post in the entrance.“Good afternoon, Luis and thank you.”“Do you want me to escort you to the penthouse?” I shook my head, a grateful smile on my face.“I'll be fine but thank you for asking,&rd

Turns out, Emily is not in Gavin or her brother's place, Ethan. Though as I thought over it I didn't remember Emily introducing Ethan to me or anyone of us in the office as her brother. I just assume given their brother-sister devotion to each other.And as I asked Ethan about Emily's whereabouts he seems unbothered about it. In fact he looks like he'd been expecting it.“Em? Where are you?” I asked, my voice tinged with panic and relief as I snatched my phone on the table the moment it rang, flashing Emily's name on the screen.She chuckled at the other side of the call. That's a good sign, right? “Relax, I'm fine, Elle.”“Is Grayson with you?” I inquired directly. After my call with Killiad, I've been stressing where was Emily. It's not like her to just take off like that. So, instead of finalizing my plans for the day, I opted on looking
Colors of Heartbreak XLXIII. Almost Perfect
Days passed in a blur of tears of forgiveness and happiness. My life is almost perfect. Almost.I hadn't officially moved out on Killiad's place. I didn't want to. I'm just waiting for him or his secretary to call me to get my things out of his place. But I know Killiad won't do anything of the sort even if his life depended on it. He's a good man, a really good man and I am very fortunate to know a man like him.I felt drain, I'm not sleeping well for the past month and it was slowly taking a toll on me. But today's Monday and Mondays were killer for all the people working from eight to five.I should be back in the office where I'm needed or I risk being late on my eight-thirty meeting on the divorce attorney Brad had recommended. But Emily hadn't gone out for grocery shopping for the cupboard supplies in the office plus I'm starving.For the last week, I had lived off of the food that my husband was sending me in the office. It never crossed my mind to

Hours later, I stood outside the gigantic gate of my parents' house, working up the courage to talk to them. It's been a week and they only have Sunday as a day-off that is, if they won't be called back to the hospital at the end of the day.My childhood home was still the same even the creaked and groaned of the gate as it opens, the sound of the soles on my shoes as it hits the brick walkway. I felt nostalgic as I looked around the place. This was the first place that held the memories of my childhood. Both happiness and sadness lay in every corner of the place that had held my young heart.A small sad smile curved up on my face. I made a lot of mistakes and I know I couldn't undo them but as I think my life through I realized it taught me the best lessons in life.I couldn't lose my parents again. They had sacrificed everything they had and I pushed them away. Not anymore.Trust is a brittle thing that should be enforced with love to make it stronger.

“Woah! What is it this time?” Emily asked as a way of greeting as she sauntered inside my office without knocking. It was clear in her face that she's excited on my behalf.“Breakfast from my favorite restaurant,” I mumbled looking anywhere but my Secretary. I don't know why I felt embarrassed about eating it. It's food and on top of that, it is my favorite.Killiad has been sending me flowers, breakfast, lunch, dinner with notes raging from ‘I miss you, I've been thinking about you and ‘Please come home, we could fix this.No, I love you or I care for you. Nothing. I want to hope but I couldn't afford to. It'll hurt too much and I don't know if I could survive the pain.I wonder what he wanted to fix. Our marriage or his life. He probably wanted to rid of me.Emily scoffed, trying to stifle her laugh.“Please don't stop your obvious mirth on my account,” I rolled my eyes, picking my pen.

“You look like sh*t,” Gavin commented just as I step on the rooftop of the bar where we usually hang out when the four of us– Gavin, Gustavo, Grayson, and I are in one city.“Gavin!” Gustavo hissed under his breath on his little corner.I tipped the bottle of beer in my hand in Gavin's direction, nodding my head. “I feel like one, bro.”He rolled his eyes, sitting on the small table. He had never taken his eyes off me as I stagger into the railing. “Can't you just call her?” I wish it was that simple.I shook my head like the thousand times I did when my finger hovers above her name on my phone screen. It feels like Mom all over again. Though I have everything money could buy I don't have the only person that I ever wanted.Space.She needed space. I ought to give her the space she wanted, after all, I had lied and hidden secrets from her. I broke the trust that she had given me. Ho
