I drove forward once more.The nearer I got to Rachel's home, the more the wrath grew. It blazed through the sadness for a moment.Emily had taken everything. Not only my son.She took the future Noah was to have. Every wish that was meant for him had vanished.His trip to Hawaii. His graduation. His wedding someday.Everything.Every little thing was taken away. For no reason.Without the right to do so.I nibbled my lip more. If Emily really thought she could leave and begin again after all this, she was mistaken.A few mins later, my auto got into Rachel's area. The big home showed up from far away.I slowed down the car. My heart started to beat faster with each second that went by.It wasn’t due to fear it
Sienna's POV I couldn't be calm. I couldn't take a seat. I couldn't breathe right.Each time I shut my eyes I saw Noah's face. Then Emily's face. Then Noah once more. Then Emily again.The loop went on forever. It did not halt for a single moment.I didn't even see when my hand went for a car key on the living room table. All I knew was that I had to go.Now."Sienna!"Liam's sound came from behind me while I rushed to the front door. I didn't pause."Sienna, wait!"I kept going. The mad that had been hidden under my sadness had at last taken over my whole body.I yanked the door wide and walked right to the driveway my heart raced in my ears"Sienna!"Liam at last caught up with me. He took my arm before I had a chance to open the car door,"I can't let you go alone."I turned to look at him. My ey
Sienna's POVI could not breathe. My chest felt like it was being squeezed hard from the inside.My head was shaking fast. Tears just kept falling and falling while every breath I took was getting shorter."No."My voice was all broken."No, Liam."My chest was going up and down fast. My whole body was shaking because I was feeling many emotions all at once."What did you just say?" I asked Liam with a voice that was shaking."Emily hit Noah?"Liam looked like he wanted to come to me. So I took a step back before he could touch me.My eyes were stuck on his face. I was looking hard for some sign that this was all just a big mistake.A sign that I had heard wrong. A sign that none of this was real.The look on Liam's face told me that it was not a mistake. He looked really serious.Pain was squeezing my c
Sienna's POVI woke up. I did not feel awake at all. My eyes were open. I felt empty inside.There was no feeling in my chest like I usually get when I think about Noah being gone. No tears came out. I did not feel that pain when I woke up.All I felt was empty.I sat on my bed for a while before I got up. I walked slowly downstairs and through the hallway. It was too quiet.The house looked the same as before. Everything in it had changed.I stopped in front of Noah's room.The door was closed. I had not touched it in a few days.I just stood there in front of Noahs room. I looked at the doorknob. It was something I had seen for years.For a few days I had been avoiding this room. When I walked through the hallway I walked fast so the pain would not catch me.The truth is that I was wrong. The pain was still there. It followed me everywhere. I could not
Emily's POVI tried to convince myself that it was over. I kept telling myself that nobody had seen me and that I was safe.The more I tried to forget what happened the more I remembered it. I just could not get it out of my head.Every time I heard a siren I thought it was someone coming for me. Every time I heard footsteps outside my motel room I thought someone was going to catch me.I quickly turned off the light. Moved away from the window. My body was shaking badly.I even hid in the corner of the room like a kid. I knew it was silly. I just could not help myself.I was really scared. I was facing something that I could not make go away. It was always with me.What if the police found the car I was in? What if someone had recorded what happened?What if Liam found out what really happened? Just thinking about it made my stomach hurt.I knew Liam would n
Emily's POV The motel room was far too small. Paint came off parts of the walls. The ceiling light blinked once in a while, and a wet smell stuck around the small room.I sat on the side of bed, looking at a suitcase that was the one thing left from my past life.Some weeks back, I was living in a big house. I had a room that was large, helpers, and the name o͏f Robert's wife.Now, I had to add up every buck just to check if I could pay for this motel room for some more days.A bitter laugh escaped me.Everything was gone.Robert had split from me. Rachel did not like me. The home was not mine now.What made me the most mad was that no one tried to hold on to me.Not one.It was as if I had never mattered.My hands clenched tightly on my knees."They're all hypocrites."My voice was barely a whispe
Sienna's POV The morning sky was soft and slightly cloudy, but the sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating a warm glow on the house's exterior. The scent of jasmine from a pot on the porch, the sound of trickling water from the small pond, and the breeze that felt like memories w
Sienna's POV The entire room was in my peripheral vision as I looked around. When I thought about it, it was either the nights when I cried in the corner of the bed, trying to keep my pain at bay or the long hours spent writing. It was a very distant but close experience.I locked my sui
Sienna's POV From time to time, I heard birdsong drifting in from outside the window, blending with the steady ticking of the wall clock. Amidst it all, I realized just how easily I could grow used to moments like this. How easy it was to want to believe that all the old wounds could heal si
Liam's POV There was another long silence. I never attempted to fill it. I desired to provide her with the opportunity to unwind and gather herself.She finally gave a soft, “thank you, Liam. For taking care of him. For making him laugh today." Closing my eyes I cracked a smile, “th
