Novelas y relatos de You Weren't Supposed To Leave

“Leave my mansion. Get out. Who's your maid again? Get her to pack all your bags. Everything you'll need. Food, clothing, whatever… I don't want to know. Before sundown, your bags should be packed. You’re leaving this mansion.” It was like building blocks dropped on my head. I couldn't understand him. Leave? How?

I looked at my brother for a long time. Unsure of what to say. It really never crossed my mind that my leaving would take such a toll on him. I always thought it was better that I left. There was nothing for me at Blue Crescent. The last thing I wanted was to get in Jared’s way. He was taking over for Uncle and I didn’t want anything to do with that. Leaving made sense back then. ‘You didn’t even discuss it with them though. You just up and left. You didn’t even talk to them for a month until you had already enrolled and were in classes.’

This was not supposed to happen. I needed to get out of here. Now.

We've already gone through a lot. I was not going to leave I was not going to let things end like this.🥲

“Please, don’t leave.” I scoffed. “What?” He nodded his head. “Yes, please don’t leave.” He repeated his words. “We had dinner yesterday and you didn’t say anything about leaving today.” “What are you talking about? I don’t owe you anything.” I said, the irritation evident in my voice. “I don’t need to take permission from you before I leave the country.” His face fell. “I know, but you should have told me before leaving.” I rolled my eyes at him. “There was no point telling you. I mean, you already know that I was leaving. Since you came here without me telling you.”

But no longer theirs. I was leaving.

“I think you should leave now, Bryce. You have overstayed your welcome!” “No! Not without you!”

Or course I got the message. “Yes I did, I got your letter. It said nothing about me leaving. At least I did not see where it asked me to leave.” “So you're being stubborn.” “Uh— stubborn? What did I do wrong this time?” “You were supposed to leave and never come back. I thought I made that clear.” “Leave?” I repeated. “Yes. I told you to leave. You can forget that all this happened, it's that simple.” “What are you talking about?” “Oh come on, stop feigning ignorance. You know what I am talking about. It's all in the letter I left on the bed.”

I just want peace of mind. “I’d be leaving after the vacation,” I said. “But, why?” he asked in surprise. “You know why. I’m done here.” “But, you know you don’t have to leave. You can just stay back and have as much fun as you want. Or, haven’t you been enjoying your time with me?” “It’s not about that. You just need to know that it’s time for me to leave. Our plans didn’t pull through. It’s only normal if I leave.”

chills ran on my skin, covering a decent part of it as I kept thinking about it. My parents had promised to make sure they were protected all the time. Within arms lengths was what I was promised but now, I couldn't help but wonder if it was better that they just left NY foremost, just until everything dies down. “You don't have to worry about them,” Richard whispered at me, before standing up. “ I will have to leave. There is something I have to do and ….”
