Semua Bab Between two hearts : Bab 11 - Bab 20

LORRAINE: I hated this. I hated being in the same vicinity as Dexter. It annoyed me, it irritated me so my goddamn bones. I turn to the next page of my book, while he was just there sitting still and gripping the edge of his chair while staring blankly outside the window. “Relax or you'll ruin the chair” I say as I eat another grape, “what is wrong with you?” “Can you just ever shut up? Jesus freaking Christ” he groans. “My jet, my voice” I tightly smile. “There it is, the prideful Withmore that everyone knows and love” he says sarcastically, “fucking pathetic”. “What exactly is your issue huh? Why can't you just be civilized and act your goddamn age?!” I scream shout. “Because of you Lorraine!” He shouts back and I become still. “Wh..?” “You annoy me, you sicken me to my stomach. What? you think I'm Matteo, that you can boss around or that'll allow your stupid side comments? You are just…”he groans, “you are the worst thing that has ever happened to me” he stands up

MATTEO: “Over there please, make sure they're right in the middle” I order the second waiter as she sets the table. My mother's birthday had to be one of the most important days in the year and I take it extremely seriously. After days of putting everything in order, it has to come out perfect. “Thirty drink pouches delivered” I hear Ava behind me, “sign here and here”. I take the clipboard from her and sign, “thanks Ava” “Sure” she walks away but I hold her arm and pull her to the side, “what is it?” She scoffs, “im not going to allow ruin her life Matteo” “Ava” I take a deep breath in, “I'm…I'm not going to do that and you know” “Oh I don't, does she? My God Matteo, you were supposed to stay away, why are you back here?” “Really? Is that how you're going to talk to me?” “I would talk to you however I please” she moves closer to me, “did you ever tell her?” She says quietly. “Ava” I breathe out, “we..we were kids, it was..” She stops me and chuckles, “that's al

DEXTER: “How long have you been in love with my Lorraine” I hear in my head for the hundredth time as I get dressed up for work. It's been weeks and yet Miss Violet’s voice has been ringing in my head causing chaos in my mind, I stare back at myself through the mirror and I was met with my unrested swollen eyes. I've barely slept, it's either I'm working or plagued with Miss Violet's voice. I drink my coffee and stare at my phone mindlessly, I needed something, a distraction of some sort other than that woman. “Mr Grayson?” I hear Nina from the door. “Come in” I sit up, “what is it Nina?” “I brought these for you, they need your signature in order for it to be passed” she drops a folder on my desk. “I'll sign and get back to you” I push the folder aside and sigh. “Are you okay sir? You look…stressed” she walks to my side and caresses my hair. It did feel nice, felt almost warm in fact but I stopped her hand, “Nina don't” She sighs, “Dex…Mr Grayson I'm …I'm sorry, I j

MATTEO: The hallway light flickered again. I lean against the cold wall just outside her door, listening to the occasional bursts of laughter and murmurs…God her laugh, it was the echo of my actual soul. It used to be us, hiding away, laughing in secret, stolen glances here and there before signatures, before mergers, before companies, grown up shit, before…him, I clench my jaw for what felt like the hundredth time this evening. “It should have been me” I thought to myself, “I should be the one in there with her, not him” my chest physically hurting and my knuckles white from gripping the side bars. I saw him go in, pizza in one hand and a cheap supermarket bag in the other, smiling stupidly and she smiled too and let him, why? Why would she do that?, that should have been my cue to leave but no I stayed thinking she'll throw him out but their loud laughter's turned to silent murmurs, too silent, quiet even and it was destroying my heart. I walk towards the elevator in defe

LORRAINE: I stared back at myself in the mirror, wrapped in my towel, wet hair, empty eyes…it's my father's death anniversary. 7 years ago….. “How are you doing?” I sniffle while holding his cold hands. “I'm fine Lor,” he smiles a little with a tear falling from his eyes, “I'm fine” he takes a deep breath in. “The doctor isn't saying anything to me…just mum and she isn't telling me anything, it's…it's frustrating” “If it makes you feel better they aren't telling me anything either” he chuckles but a cough erupts from his throat. “Easy” I sniffle again, “dad please fight for me, fight for us” I say with tears coming down my face. “I am, trust me Lor, I am” he smiles weakly, “oh my Lorriane” he kisses my hands, “whatever happens never forget that I love you and you are stronger than whatever your mum says, you are fierce, you are bold but you are fragile…don't push yourself so much and loose yourself in the crowd” he smiles weakly and the machine beeping increase. “Dad, D
