Rosella

“Are you okay?” Stella asked me.

I hummed and weakly smiled at her. “Missing her?” I bit my inner cheek. “She is in a better place now Rose, you have to let it go and be happy, that way she’ll be happy too.” Stella placed her hand on my shoulder.

A stray tear rolled out of my eye. “Stells only if I could change time and bring her back,” I gritted my teeth. “It was all my fault.” I clasped my hand tightly, another tear leaking out of my eye.

“Look at me honey.” She cupped my face in between her palms, her eyes showing pain. “Don’t ever consider yourself at fault, you couldn’t have done anything, it was meant to be that way.”

I sighed.

Why did I let her go. Why?

“I miss her, Stells.” She hushed me up and wrapped her arms around my waist. Leaning into her hug, I whispered, “I-I cant live without h-her, I’ll die.” I stuttered out. “Don’t Rose.. you’re stronger than this.” She rubbed my back.

“Damn, emotional moment we’re disturbing right now?” Dante’s deep voice ringed.
