Goodbye In Her Eyes Novels & Stories

It hit her, all at once, that her own actions were what had led to my death. The makeup brush slipped from her fingers and clattered to the floor. My mother, always so proud, so composed, no longer cared that a room full of her colleagues was watching. She sank to the ground right there and covered her face, sobbing. Mom, didn't you always hate me? Why cry for me now? While I was alive, I asked you so many times just to look at me. You never once did. Now that I'm dead, why can't you look away?

Hope flickered in her eyes. I nodded, "That's true." Her eyes lit up, but before she could say more, I pulled out the signed divorce papers from my bag and handed them to her. "It’s a good thing we're already divorced." I made sure to show her where she had signed. "No more shared property, right? Your problems won't affect me," I said with a smirk. Ruby's eyes went wide, staring at the papers. She turned ghostly white. "Impossible, when did I...?" she stammered.

Tears kept falling and her shoulders trembled harder. “Oh, my dear girl, why are you crying like this? Don’t cry, baby… please don’t cry.” Niona’s voice turned soft and worried. She quickly pulled out the handkerchief She always kept in her purse and reached up to gently wipe her face. Her hands weren’t as steady as they used to be. Outside the study door, Damien had already ended the call. The sound of Maureen’s crying reached him clearly through the wood. He stepped closer and looked inside.

If you still see me as your mother, don't make things harder for her. [Let her take the child to Montedra. You need Brian, and she and Alex need him too.] [For my sake, just coexist peacefully with her and the boy, okay?] Mom, those were your words yesterday. And now that I'm gone, shouldn't you be relieved? No one's left to fight Ruby for your son-in-law. Your grandson finally gets his perfect little family. So why the tears? Shouldn't this be a happy ending for you? Mom crumpled in the yard, knocked out cold from grief.

"My child... You've been through so much..." I used to dream of her hugs, but at that moment, I just stepped back a little and said without much feeling. "Thanks for caring." She paused, her arms still out. Summer looked at me with her amber eyes, not bothering to say any nice words. The next moment, she started crying quietly and spoke in a sweet voice.

I try not to think much about it, I should just go say hi, I mean what would go wrong? Her eyes travel across the room until they stop at me. Her eyes go a bit wide telling me that she recognizes me and that tags at my chest, her hazel eyes lock with mine and I notice the dark circles under her eyes as though she hasn’t been getting enough sleep or she’s been crying a lot and they don’t carry the life and daring attitude she had when we met. For a split second, I notice tears lace her eyes, offering her a smile she immediately looks away, confusing me more. Okay?

I gazed back at him with tears falling from my eyes, and before I closed the door, I left him my parting words. "Eric," I said, pausing for a moment to smile at him, "thank you, and goodbye." I closed the door, and I covered my face as I broke into a sob again. It hurt like hell. It hurt like I was pushed into a seafloor. I didn't even look at the driver. He knew anyway where I was going--it's part of the booking. However, I jumped at my seat when the driver's hand suddenly pulled me close to him.

She walked towards me and placed her cold hand on my shoulder. “Do not worry, Luke. Do not lose hope. Help me find a way to stop this conflict. Help me find a way to turn things around.” I looked at her and our eyes met. Her eyes were a little bit watery caused maybe the thought of the destruction of our friendship or maybe this was the last time that I could see her and be considered enemies on our next meeting. She turned away from me and started to walk towards the door. “This is goodbye, Luke. Please heed my advice.” She turned one last time.

I'd been with Leo Blackwood for five years. But we'd never once made it through a mating ceremony. Every time we were about to seal the bond, something would happen with Linda—his adopted sister. And every single time, Leo would leave me behind. This time, he swore he'd planned everything down to the last detail. Promised he wouldn't miss it. I waited five days and five nights—because I wanted to tell him I was pregnant. He never showed. Instead, I got attacked by rogues. Got infected with wolfsbane because of it. At the very last moment, I called Leo. It was Linda who picked up. She put the video on, and that's when I saw it—Leo and Linda, right in the middle of some celebration. "Freya." H

I welled up a little bit of tears in my eyes, and she immediately hugged me with her body as she asked, “Are you okay? What's wrong with you?” “It's just about Sage; I can't seem to…” I cut short my words, a wail interrupting my speech. She pulled me into a hug as she patted my back gently, and I sobbed into her arms. “Can you perhaps take me shopping? Maybe then I would be able to feel better,” I said, and she stopped patting for a while before she continued and said, “Yes, maybe. Your dad doesn't allow you out, but you should be happy,” she said, and a smile rose on my face slowly; my plan was working.
