freedom at last
780 Words
Well, I know what his family's reaction is going to be. Too bad for him.
I received a phone call from my adopted parents. While I walked out of the penthouse,
"Elena, what have you done? Do you have any idea what you just caused?
"Come home now! "She yelled.
While driving home, I sarcastically remarked to myself, is that really my home, or is it a prison cell that they have kept me in? Always using adoption. Should I be grateful to them just because they raised me?
Without them, I would be nothing. That's what they always say.
At some point, I was grateful, but now it feels like a burden. I wasn't loved, just used and when they saw the chance to sell me, they did it without no remorse.
As I was walking inside, I noticed my mother yelling.
"She is not our real daughter. "I don't see why we should feel sorry for her."
"My love, you took care of her. It is our right to demand things from her." my father replie
"No, she's ungrateful. But it doesn't matter, we found our daughter. So hurry up and kick her out. Make sure you blame her. She says
"It's good to know that I'm no longer welcome here. I smile. After so long I'm finally free." i sa
You are a shame to this family. Why shouldn't I kick you out?
funny. I thought you wanted to bring Sabrina back without drama, but if the world finds out, she's nothing more than a lover.
She is our daughter. The one we always look for and love, you are a replacement.
Yes, a replacement that was ordered and unloved, so spare me your false sentiments.
I walk to my room and start packing all the things I care for, and my only remembrance is a small bracelet with a small ruby in the center.
I wore it as a child but grew out of it, so I kept it stored in a safe place along with a little jewelry I was given by them.
As I'm leaving, she calls me
"Give me the bracelet you had on when you arrived and the gifts we gave you."
"I sold it along with a few others, unless things you guys called gifts.
Goodbye," I said.
"She pulls my arm. Why did you sell it? It was something important to you."
"No, it was a burden. Why?"
"I wanted to give it to my grandchild." Since I found my daughter I want to give her my grandchild something to remember.
"Well, you can always buy a new one. Don't you have the money or are you going broke? It's not my problem anymore. Don't try to keep in contact or ask me for anything in this life."
"We won't, you are an orphan with no one standing behind you. Why would we contact you or ask for things?"
"Exactly remember that for the rest of your years."
They would be delirious if I was going to give them something so important.
I made my way to my apartment. I got myself with my fist after selling my first jeweler design.
I screamed out loud. I'm finally free of no more burdens.
A few weeks later,
I thought I was going to be sad about divorcing Eric, but no, I'm happy. The papers finally went through. He gave me the penthouse and alimony, but I declined it. Why would I accept a single thing from him? Didn't he say to leave? Well, I am
I have spent most of my time designing new jewelry. I plan to open a design shop, but I have been feeling sick. I have nausea. I'm eating more food than normal, especially chocolate ice cream with different toppings.
Suddenly, I began to think my period hadn't arrived. I grabbed my keys and zoomed out, and headed straight to a hospital to get the test done. Why not throw in tests for diseases he cheated on me. Who is to say he didn't get anything?
I arrived at the hospital rushing straight to the obyn/maternity section.
Damm it. I turn back when I see them acting like a loving couple. I rolled my eyes and turned to walk away.
I saw him get up, so I began to walk faster than I should have, but it won't matter if he discovers anything, he will do everything in his power to trap me.
Lost in thought, I ran into someone. She falls to the ground and groans in pain.
Hey, watch where you are going, but before she scolds me she stares intently. Elena is that you?
