Semua Bab ALEX: Bab 31 - Bab 36

“You’re fine like that?” “Yes.” “Are you sure? I can put another pillow if you wish,” he kept insisting. “Alex,” I cut off the daily tirade “I'm fine, I'm comfortable, I don't need anything else.” He stared at me serious for a few seconds before looking down, turning, and leaving my room. Yep, my room. Since my discharge from the clinic three days ago, Alex had set me up in my old room claiming that he might accidentally hurt me at night. But I knew that wasn’t the reason. A week had passed since Arthur kidnapped me, and my life has taken a 180 degree turn since then; Any aspect in my life was the same and I had to accept the fact that the person I loved didn’t give me the support I expected and made worse my depression.

I looked behind Pierre, realizing what he was saying was true, noticing my sister-in-law with her father just as the wedding march started, making me run towards the room where my sister was with Mom. “Get out the away!” Maggie yelled, pulling me aside b

A year later somewhere in the Atlantic. “Do you have the rings?” I asked Mark. "For the umpteenth time, yes,” he replied exasperated. “Why it’s taking so long?” I said walking anxiously down the altar. "Dude, you’re wearing white, stop moving that much!” My godfather exclaimed looking at me annoyed. “So what?” “That I’m starting to see wet points in some areas...” I stopped immediately to turn to the guests, first seeing my son dressed the same as me in my mother's arms, playing with a gum teether.
