I took his advice seriously. I had a habit of thinking too much, but Rex was not someone worth losing sleep over. As annoying as Raymond could be, he often made more sense than I wanted to admit. I turned to face him and stretched out my hand.

“Can I have that back now, please?” I asked, pointing at the ring on his left hand.

“Oh, Bella, you cannot just propose to someone and then ask for the ring back, especially after I already accepted,” he said with a teasing smile.

“That is not what I did,” I replied quickly. “I only wanted to keep him from seeing it. I never asked for your hand in marriage, and you know that. Now, give it back.”

Before he could answer, the door opened, and a graceful older woman walked in. Behind her was another woman dressed in a nurse’s uniform that did not belong to our hospital.

“Raymondbl, son, I am so glad you are awake,” the woman said warmly. “I brought someone to meet you. This is Elise. She will be taking care of you from now on.”

  • Wetting The Bed Of My Best Friend's Brother    My client lost the baby as a direct result of the trauma from her fall.

    Author's Pov“All rise.”The judge walked to his high seat. Everyone in the room, the jury, the lawyers, bowed their heads slightly toward him. He bowed his head back to them. It was a quiet show of respect.“Court is now in session. You may be seated,” announced the bailiff.The formal introductions began, naming the lawyers and the people they represented. Bella sat on the right side of the room, her hands clasped tightly together in her lap. Raymond placed his own hand over hers, a gentle pressure to quiet her rising anxiety. He leaned close to say something into her ear. On the left side sat Colleen. To anyone who did not know better, she looked completely bored. Her expression said she would rather be anywhere else in the world. Or maybe that look had everything to do with Rex, who was seated right beside her.“Your Honor,” Colleen’s lawyer, Mr. Scott, began. “My client, Colleen Ronald, was deeply hurt when she discovered her husband’s three-year affair with Miss Whey. Her family

    BellaSarah and I connected in a real way. The wall she kept up to protect herself fell apart, and she was not embarrassed to let me see her pain. She had lived through something terrible, but she made it out even when she believed she could not. Sarah was sitting opposite me, and I understood the expression on her face. It was not the sad, sorry look everyone else gave me. It was recognition. She knew exactly what I was feeling because she had been there herself.Raymond arrived at the hospital after his meeting, just like he said he would. I noticed his expression when he walked in. He was confused about his mother being there, but after he saw our hands held together, the tension left his body.Sarah told him to sit down and be part of our talk. A little while later, Julie came in to tell me I would be going home later that day. I would be leaving this place with more than I arrived with. I was now a mother to a baby I would never get to hold. I was a woman with a heart that felt c

    BellaHer question caught me off guard. She was right. We had never had the chance to really talk. Raymond had warned me his mother could be hard to reach.“Thank you, Mrs. Woods. That means a great deal to me.”“Call me Sarah. I do not know what Raymond has said about me, but I have been where you are. It is never easy. After my loss, I shut everyone out. I was so scared. I thought if I let someone in, if I loved like that again, I would only get hurt.”Her voice was soft. She was looking at something I could not see.“I am sorry. I did not know. Raymond never told me.”“I suppose he would not. It happened after he was born. I am not even sure he remembers.”“How… how did you make it through?”I kept my voice low, worried I was crossing a line. She was quiet for a long time, and I was afraid I had said too much.“I buried myself in my work. I did anything I could to forget. I pushed myself so hard that by the time I came home, I was too exhausted to think. By the time I looked up and

  • Wetting The Bed Of My Best Friend's Brother    Losing a baby is never easy!

    BellaLost does not even come close to how I felt. Knowing I would never learn if my baby was a boy or a girl, never hold them or kiss them or rock them to sleep, that was the hardest truth I have ever had to face. It felt like the universe was playing a cruel, fucking game. Dangling something good right in front of me, only to rip it away the moment I reached for it. My whole life seemed to work that way.I did not want to believe it. My heart beat all wrong, like an empty room. My body was grieving for a child we never even knew was there. We never got to see them, not even once. Someone up there must be having a real good laugh watching the mess my life has become. Having Raymond with me helped, but only a little. Knowing he was hurting just as badly for our baby meant everything.We had not talked much about children, but I knew without question he would be an amazing father. The kind who would be there for every little thing.Colleen, though… she was a heavy thought. The police

  • Wetting The Bed Of My Best Friend's Brother    How could we ever be okay after this?

    RaymondI barely had time to understand there had been a baby at all. Now I had to tell Bella our child was gone. Charlie did not want to just wait around. He wanted to help, so he called the police to see if they had found Colleen yet. I’d left her at the house when I rushed out with Bella, and I had no fucking idea whether they took her in or not.“Can I see her?”I asked the doctor. He nodded and told me to follow him.Everyone crowded into the room. Bella was pale as paper, the usual warmth gone from her cheeks because of all the blood she’d lost. She looked so breakable. I hated it. I moved to the bed and took her hand in mine, holding it tight.“Hey, you,” I said, smiling at her. The smile did not feel real. It was like a mask I was wearing.“I look awful, don’t I?”Her voice was thick and slow.I gave her a glass of water. She drank it down fast.“No. You look beautiful.”I kissed the top of her head.“You’re lying,” she said, but she smiled a little.The words stuck in my thro

  • Wetting The Bed Of My Best Friend's Brother     My baby was gone

    BellaI wanted to face her. I wanted to fight back. I wanted to know who the fuck she was. But Raymond told me he had it under control, and I trusted him. A thousand thoughts were rushing through my head as I climbed the stairs. It was all noise and confusion… and then, everything just fell apart. One moment I was at the top of the staircase. The next, I was falling.My hands reached out, grabbing at nothing. I could not stop myself. I could not slow down. I rolled down the steps so fast, my body and my head pounding against each one. It was over in a heartbeat. I landed hard at the bottom, my head slamming into the small table there. The vase on it crashed down onto my stomach, knocking the air right out of my lungs.Hot blood poured from the cut on my head. I lifted a hand to touch the painful spot, and my fingers came back covered in red. Somewhere, very far away, I heard Raymond’s voice. He sounded scared. I felt his hands holding my head, but I could not keep my eyes open like he
