TROUBLED Chapter 39 : She was so done
She should have known that out of every single person in her life... her father would never let her down. He did not speak to her during the past week but he made her breakfast in silence. He cooked healthy lunches with his wife. They would talk and whisper amongst themselves but not with her. She was okay with it, she did not have anything to say. Eric had not bothered checking if she arrived safely. Leona was deadset on forgetting about him. He was a mistake and to think, she thought her life was boring without him. He brought fun and trouble. He was heartless and selfish. Every single observation she had once made about him from the start was true, it was all nothing but the truth. For a moment she wished she had never met him... infact that was now a continuous feeling. Laura and Sam had taken her to lunch the other day. It was all bitter talk and insults thrown here and there. Sam admitted that he still spoke to Eric and they were still good friends. Leona felt betrayed but Sam
TROUBLED Chapter 40 : He was so unashamed
It had not been very busy lately at the boutique. Debby spent most texting back and forth with Leona. Not because she did not have as many good friends as she would like to. It was hard to come across good people with good intentions. She had cut all ties with people from her past this meant Leona was somewhat the only person that made her phone entertaining. The time zones did not stop them, Debby enjoyed hearing about life in Los Angeles and ofcourse the baby. When Debby was with Eric romantically they had planned to travel together but he eventually did all that by himself. Debby has recently applied for a passport, Leona had convinced her. She felt as though, it would be a waste of time because she wouldn't really go anywhere. Leona was kind enough to tell her that there were many opportunities to travel in Europe. The boarders are so close together, you could even go in two to three countries in only about twenty-four hours. Debby soon realized she was very closed minded. Her hea
TROUBLED Chapter 41 : She was really going
Eric was running errands with his little niece Fabiola when he received a message notifying him that all processes had been concluded; the money had been deducted of all necessary taxes and put straight into his account. It felt surreal, he wanted to jump up and down the store in fact, he wanted to buy everyone in the store a treat. No—'Calm down Eric, calm down.' He told himself but the happiness was just radiating from inside. "Take anything you want Fabiola!" He told his niece who gasped."But you said only things under €5." The girl replied. "Nope, that was when your uncle was poor but now you can take anything sí?" The six year old, still looked at him confused. "Fabiola take anything!!" "Anything?" She grinned. "Anything!!" Eric grinned when she ran off into the other aisle. Following behind her. He checked his back balance... again and again. It was surreal?! His father's twenty-four years of hard work as a pilot is the reason why he was having all this money. This was
TROUBLED Chapter 42 : She was so perfect
- I am by no means forcing Christianity on anyone. I think we all knew what we were getting into when the story read 'Christian boyfriend'. I'm not the most religious person but I'm just glad I get to show people of God's works even in the most distinct way, where ever I can. It's also okay to skip if it offends or makes you feel uncomfortable. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion :D —Faith. Putting faith in God would mean we believe that even though things look tangled up, God is able to untangle them. When tragic things happen, putting faith in God means we believe, no matter how bad things look, that God will work them together for good. (Romans 8:28) When God says he will work all things for good, there is no exception. Too often, we look at what we are experiencing and can not fathom how it will work out, but that's exactly when we need to place that situation into his capable hands. God is not stunned by our struggles or trials. We get a call from the doctor with res
TROUBLED Chapter 43 : He was trying
"She has this thing right?" Eric chuckled lightly thinking about it. "Where she burps out milk and most of the time it's always on my shirt. I haven't showered in two days. She is going home today so I might have to book a hotel or something.." "Ew Ricky, she is extra sensitive and you might give her infections with your filth, for fucksake go shower and maybe shave... it's weird seeing you with stubble." Debby replied referring to the pictures Eric had sent. The focus was supposed to be on Araceli not him. He rolled his eyes at her response but admitted to the fact that he could really use a shower."Damnit Debby! I cant leave her sight knowing Robbie works here.." he added. "Yeah... he seems so spiteful. Leona told me what he said on her last appointment." That I should have been at. Eric thought cautiously. It bothered him that if she passes, that would mean they left everything off on a very bad note and absolutely nothing could change that. He would have to live with that guil
TROUBLED Chapter 44 : It felt so surreal
13:56 There was a sharp smell of disinfect invading her nostrils, a metallic tang from stainless steel in the open air. The room silent with void except for the beeping sound that indicated she is alive. Her eyes flew wide open, her lashes like a curtain blinding her vision. Confusion passed through her mind... 'Where am I?' Out of instinct her hand immediately reached for her stomach. Her other other reached for her stomach yet again feeling nothing over the hospital gown. Her brain started to register what was happening when she saw the blue color scheme surrounding the room. Shutting her eyes she remembered bleeding... on her way—"My baby!" She said hoarsely, her throat dry. She sat up straight from the bed. Her joints cracking into place after not having moved for over a month. She did not know that, infact everything in her mind had happened yesterday. She was about to get out of bed when a nurse came in and gasped. "Oh my Leona..." She rushed, making Leona stay back in bed.
TROUBLED Chapter 45 : She was so cold
Feeling left out.Eric stood in his corner. It was seven in the evening, Leona had merely woken up a few hours ago but her room was filled with flowers and gifts. It wasn't just Leona's parents who had came to see her. It was her whole family, her aunts, uncles and so on. Eric watched how Leona little nephews and nieces crowded her near the bed. She didn't seem to mind. Every time she smiled, he felt jittery in and out. So jittery, he was forced to lowly clear his throat. She wasn't smiling at him though. Eric was concerned, with how many people were coming in and out of Leona's room. If he wasn't mistaken, he had seen almost half of the church fellowship in the hallways. Happiness radiated all across the room. It made Eric realize that Leona was such a good person so much that everyone loved her. No one had anything horrible to say about her... if there was it would have to be Robbie. He wanted to stay in his place and not invade her space like everyone was. "Araceli is awake now, I
TROUBLED Chapter 46 : They were so at peace
They stood stagnant in their position for what seemed like the longest time when it had only been merely been a few minutes. Eric felt patient, he knew it wouldn't be that easy but at least he was trying. Leona let out a sigh and stared back at him with her eyes just waiting to burst the dam of tears. She looked so vulnerable. "I can't—" she sniveled when a tear fell. "I don't want this anymore. It's not going to work. We always try and you always promise that it will but as soon as something comes up. You push me away and the only person you want is Debby. It hurts because whenever I feel down and sad... the only person I want is you but you don't want me. You don't love me. If you did you wouldn't have said what you said the last time we talked." She paused. Eric could feel the physical ache in his chest. A part of him didn't know if he should let her be from here on or if he continued pursuing her that would be some sort of harassment. "You told me that you wanted a new start and
