How We End Chapter 56
Chapter 56I moved at such a fast pace, making it almost impossible for him to catch up with me. Immediately the elevator which I had hurriedly entered dinged open to the last floor, I bolted out of it and ran out of the building. Tears clouded my vision as I descended the stairs, hurrying to my car."Grace!" I heard my father shout behind me but I continued to move. "For the love of God, wait!"I pressed on the unlock censor of my car keys. The headlights of my car flashed two times and I wasted no time in pulling the car door open and hopping in the driver's seat. I could see my father running down the stairs through the corner of my eye when I inserted the key into the ignition and drove away.So many thoughts sped through my mind as I drove back home that morning. My breaths came out shaky and unsteady as memories of what had happened replayed in my head. I wished I had

Chapter 57I didn't say anything.I couldn't say anything.I felt numb and lifeless.I could hear the distant sobbing of my mother, "Grace? Grace, sweetie are you there?"My knees weakened and I fell to the bed. All I could do was gaze into space, thinking. My mother's words echoed in my head until everything felt all woozy to me.My father was dead.How could it be? I spoke to my father just this morning. How could he be dead?The pain I felt in my core took over my entire body, weakening every fibre of my being one by one. The hollowness I felt in my chest increased tenfold as my mind played back our encounter this morning. My father had died and the last words I said to him were completely awful.And they were all for nothing.'I hate you so much and I

Chapter 58{ D E A N } It had been two months since the passing of Mr Lucas Anderson. Two months of watching my girlfriend desperately try to live through the pain and failing at it. Two months of always trying to make sure she was okay or her mood wasn't so bad. Two months of trying to act strong for her. Deep down, the death of Mr Anderson had hurt me more than I thought it would and watching Grace have to deal with everything made it all worse.Watching her blame herself for what had happened to her father reminded me a lot of myself when Charlie had died. I knew how it felt. I knew how it felt to wallow in self-guilt to the point you where began to hate yourself. I knew what that could do to you and I didn't want Grace to have to go through that.The first four weeks had my heart crumbling actually. She was always zoning out, always overthinking, always seemed distant and uninterested in everything that was happening around her. I guess that was her method of dealing with the pain
How We End Chapter 59
Chapter 59{ G R A C E }The death of my father hadn't been easy to get by but I decided to put a lot of effort to try. To try not to let the sadness I felt overshadow every other emotion inside me. To try not to make it hard for the people who put in everything to make sure I healed. To try to forgive myself, cause something told me that was what my father would've wanted.He would've wanted me to be at peace with myself.And that was exactly what I was trying to do.Weeks continued to pass by, all in a blur. I buried myself in school work and more on the novel I was working on. I read once that it was easier to get through grief by busying the mind, leaving no space whatsoever for overthinking. So, that was what I did the whole time. If I wasn't doing school work, I was writing my novel and if I wasn't writing my novel, I was doing chores

Chapter60It was nice having things a little bit the way they used to.During classes, I no longer sat by myself. I was back to having Kyle sitting next to me and saying the most annoying things. It was good having him back in my life again, to be honest. He also had a way of making sure I don't zone out and overthink, which was something I was grateful for because I tend to do that a lot and it takes a huge toll on my mood."Earth to Grace?" Kyle snapped his fingers in my face.I aggressively shoved his hands away, "Are you crazy?""You zoned out again." He held his hands up in surrender."I did not." I folded my arms, looking at the professor."What was the last thing I said, then?" He gave a pointed look."The only thing you ever say…" I batted my lashes. "Trash."He pla

Chapter 61The rest of the week rolled by fast and by Friday, I had completed that God awful assignment and submitted it on Professor Lopez's desk. Apparently, he was right. None of us actually knew that we could get the assignment done in such little time but we did it anyway, and everyone had poured in their full capacity.I had already gathered up my things, eager to be out of the class and back home, so as soon as we were dismissed by our professor, I wasted no time in getting up and bolting right out of the class. Walking down the hall, I felt someone following close behind me. I looked back to see Kyle and I was quick to look away from him."Grace."I continued to walk."Would you please just talk to me?"I let out a defeated sigh and turned back to face him, "What?""Look, I'm really sorry about the

Chapter 62It was at this point in my life that I really came to the literal understanding of the expression 'Stuck between a rock and a hard place'.I had never been so confused on what decision to make all my life. I have had some times where I was at crossroads but nothing could compete with this. I didn't know what to do. A part of me stuck with my decision to not drop everything I care about but there was also this part that replayed everything Chris had said to me that afternoon.So many things ran through my mind actually.I just couldn't seem to imagine myself leaving everything behind and going to England, where I didn't know anyone. I had seen so many movies where they make a decision like this and it ends up messing up their entire life and leaves them regretting why they weren't just patient. I wondered what my mom would think if I told her.&nbs

Chapter 63Chapter 63"Dean, I'm home!" I shouted immediately I stepped into the penthouse. I locked the door behind me and tossed my bag on the floor, excited to tell him what happened today."In the kitchen!" I heard Dean shout from the kitchen.Excitedly, I skipped over to the kitchen, humming to myself like a little girl. A smile formed on my face when I saw Dean, standing over the counter which held the sandwich he was making."Well, hey there boyfriend." I grinned, leaning o
