Our classes are finished; we went to art club we are doing some proms for our next anniversary play. All I can think was about him, what he is doing. Few months back my life was a disaster, because of him I am looking happy.
I will be in this bubble until it pops out, I won’t pop out right.
Thea and Martin dropped me at home, thank God for my understanding friends, they know about my back group and Justin and Edward, except about Nathan.
If they know how they will react?
It is a serious issue; people will judge you for your sexuality. I am not sure if I am gay or not, I have attracted to any men or women.
John my Wimberly friend looks like Nathan in built and height, but I have never attracted to him.
He hasn’t called me after I came here. I just messaged him about the where abouts. He is maintaining his distance too.
When I entered house, I can hear people are talking, I have totally forgot about grand parents are at home.
Hope they don’t notice me, I can quickly go and hide in my room.
I heard few bits and pieces like she came to your father, he knows she is pregnant, I don’t know about whom they are talking to.
When I entered everyone is quite and Edward’s face is so sad, I didn’t know what they are talking about, Elizebeth’s face is so angry and Grand mother face is like she is crying and Grand father face is like he is sorry for something.
I just quickly greeted everyone and about to go to my room,
“Stop son, how is your day at school”
“It was good sir” I just bend my face unable to look at every one and I just looking at the floor.
He came and hugged me and immediately Elizebath sniffled and left the living room. I can see her footsteps moving and fading away.
“Is everything being alright?”
“Yes son, I am sorry I was not there for you and your mother, but now you are here you are not leaving me”
Just that time Justin walked in from school and his face is flaring with anger with the scene, I quickly pulled out from Edward.
“What is going on? Where is Mum? Are you scheming some thing behind her?” why does he thought that? Are all rich people, scheme not love their family?
Edward moved to Justin side and asked about school and his day and hugged him.
“Your mom just now left to her room to get some rest”
“Why don’t you and Ethan go to school together and spend some time alone?” he muttered.
“That is not going to happen, you know that” Justin is shouting now.
“Give respect to your father” was Grandmothers response.
“I am just leaving” and he moved and left the room, and I have sniffled and walked slowly towards my room too.
After I freshen up, I was sitting on the bed and looking at my mother’s photo, and I was thinking if she is alive, I wouldn’t have come here obviously I would have not faced all these humiliation and resentment from Justin and Elizebeth.
They are not wrong, they have all the right to resent me, they have least expected me be here. I opened my book to finish some homework, there is a ping on mobile phone, I know it would be Nathan.
At least he is thinking about be.
“Hi, what are you doing? Did you finish your dinner?”
“I am doing homework; I will do dinner now”
“Ok, my parents are going to business trip, do you want to come over tomorrow? After school”
I blushed, at least there is something to looking forward to.
“Sure” I replied.
I looked at my mother’s photo, and my thoughts are stirring to Nathan, if she is alive, I wouldn’t have met Nathan.
If we are destined to be together, we would have met in another way. I am overwhelmed from his emotions. I am more getting used to him. It will be hard for me if he leaves me or go apart from me.
Does Edward really love me, or he feels only responsibility towards me.
When I am in deep thoughts a knock on the door startled me.
When I said come in grand mother came to my room with a plate food. She is very kind, I just met her today and I feel like we have too much bonding and close together.
May be that is blood relation.
She came in and kept the food tray on the bedside table and sat beside me.
“You didn’t come for dinner?”
“I.. I.. am not hungry”
“Edward told every day you will eat your dinner in your room”
“That’s best for everyone; I have looked at my hands and then looked at my mother’s photo”
“She is very beautiful; you look exactly like her. Get up eat your food” I have cried at her words.
“If I am not born, she would have been still alive, she was all alone because of me, she didn’t enjoy her life, she worked very hard for me, she didn’t make me feel like I have no father” her grandmothers’ eyes are misted.
“I don’t want to come here or trouble anyone, but I came because of her last wish, even she doesn’t want me to be alone after she died, she wants me to be happy”
“Once I turn eighteen, I will leave them so they can be happy without me being around them any longer, I don’t need any thing from my father”
Tears flown from my eyes. I am sobbing, when it comes to my mother, I am too emotional.
“She didn’t want to marry any one after I have born even her parents insisted her” I revealed.
Grandmother is now sobbing, and she is also feeling so emotional.
“Aurora is such a sweet girl, that’s why Edward loved her a lot” I shocked by hearing her confession
“Yes, it is true, none of it your fault dear, if any one blame me it is all our fault.” She continued. I am puzzled what she means.
