Letting go Chapter 35
Molly It takes several seconds to calm myself down enough to function but still, I'm shaking like a shitting dog. Hearing Tom call my name was a massive help, to know that he's ok brings me some much-needed sense of peace. He's running in our direction from the storm shelter but he's still a bit away from us screaming both mine and Christian's names. I catch movement to his left and see the Tornado still going, still tearing through everything in its path and taking no prisoners. How many lives will be destroyed because of that thing? How many people will lose their lives to it? "Don't look at it, Molls." Christian gently squeezes my waist reminding me that I'm still somewhat sitting on his lap. "It's gone, we're ok, everyone's ok." His words are gentle but firm and I try to believe in them but still, my heart aches for those that won't be as lucky as us. "Shit, sorry I'm still sitting on you like a sloth. Let me get up so you can move. I must have hurt you when I landed on you."
Letting go Chapter 36
MollyIt doesn't take long for the house to come into view, well, what's left of it anyway. the closer we get to it the more heart-wrenching the sight becomes. The house is completely destroyed. Where there once stood a house is now a pile of jumble. The Tornado tore the whole thing apart and it's devastating to see.Loud sobs drag my attention away from the house and to the sight of John holding a crying Ruby in his arms. Her sobs are gut-wrenching to hear and clearly, it's not just me feeling that way as all of the boys suddenly start swarming around her until they are all wrapped in one massive hug. She's not my mom nor is this my home and yet I feel devastated so I can't even begin to imagine what it feels like for those guys."It's ok my darling, we will rebuild." John is so gentle and sweet with Ruby. "I dont know if I can do it again John, this is the second time that we've had our entire home destroyed since we've lived here!" Her voice is rising but it's full of pure devastat
Letting go Chapter 37
Christian I storm through the fields and all the debris that's fallen out of the sky while cursing to myself. I keep going until I reach one of the old storm-proofed barns that we now use as a gym and don't stop until I'm inside and throwing all my anger at the old leather punch bag that's hanging down from the ceiling by a chain that's properly older than me but that thing holds well, they dont make them like that anymore. My knuckles are throbbing in just a few minutes which is my own stupid fault for not wrapping them but at this moment I dont care. "Chris." I dont stop unleashing my anger when I hear Jack's voice, I keep going while the sweat rolls down my head and body and I'm panting with every breath that I take. "Chris, talk to me brother, what's going on?" Jack soon appears at my side, a deep look of concern across his face. "I'm fine!" I grunt out the words even when they are a big fat lie and unluckily for me Jack knows me too well and the new look on his face is callin
Letting go Chapter 38
Christian "Molly, what happened?" Tom runs past me and quickly reaches her instantly checking out her hand. "I was just checking to see if anything looked like it could be saved and I slipped." "I think it may need stitches." Tom looks straight at our Mom, she used to be a nurse so she knows more about this kind of stuff than any of us. She walks over to Molly and winches when she sees the cut across the palm of Molly's hand. "Oh sweetheart, that's a nasty cut you've got yourself there. Let's get you moved out of that rubble so I can take a better look yes?" Molly nods but then gives Tom a scared look that instantly makes me want to comfort her. I let out a huff and stomp over to her just as Tom is about to pick her up. "I've got her." I don't wait for him to answer me instead I put an arm under her legs and another around her back and pick her up. "You're doing a really good job of trying to get yourself hurt today ain't you?" She gives me a pissed-off look which I find cute as
Letting go Chapter 39
Molly I can't deal with this anymore so it's now or never. It may not be the time for this conversation but it's happening. I may be leaving soon but still, this conversation needs to happen for Tom's sake at least. I may be gone soon but I don't want anything left behind that he will be left to deal with. Christian looks a little lost but we both know that his suspicions of me are burning away at him. "Molly, you don't have to do this baby girl, It's no one's business." Tom comes to stand at the side of me and takes my hand in his giving it a supportive squeeze. I squeeze his hand back and give him a reassuring smile. "It's ok, Tom. Maybe it's time that it stopped being a secret." Tom has told me from the beginning that I shouldn't have to keep a secret like this to myself, and certainly not when I'm being blamed for something that I didn't do. "This is your chance to ask whatever it is you want to know, Christian. I will tell you the truth about whatever you ask but make the most
Letting go Chapter 40
Molly Watching Amy heading our way is the last thing I need right now. the last thing any of us need right now. She looks like she's ready to rip Christian a new asshole and while part of me wants to watch it unfold and enjoy it for how he's been towards me the other part of me just wants to hide away and forget about this awful day. But I do also want to see what pathetic shit she's going to come out with now. The bitch is crazy! "CHRISTIAN!" She keeps screeching his name as she continues her stomping. That girl has got to be out of breath by now, surely. "Stop fucking screeching will you? I'm not fucking deaf!" Finally, she stops the screeching but I have a feeling that it won't last long. "Why would you do this Christian?" She comes to a stop right in front of him, she slams the palm of her hand hard on his chest wedging the piece of paper between his chest and her hand. "I'm in the middle of something here, Amy so get in line!" Jack bursts out laughing at Christian's comment w
Letting go Chapter 41
Christian I swear it feels like it's been hours since Amy turned up here and yet she and Tom are still going at it like cat and dog. Of course, Jack is more than happy to stick his two-pence worth in. "Christian, are you really going to let your brothers speak to me like this?" Is this bitch for real? "Amy be grateful that Zoe isn't here, you'd already be out cold!" It's no lie. My sister has met Amy several times and never did like her much and now, well now she hates her with a passion. "Zoe wouldn't have the guts to stand up to me, same as that hoe that you've been shacked up with!" Tom stops his ranting and at the same time we both seem to realize that she is talking about Molly "What are you talking about bitch?" She lets out the most annoying laugh I have ever heard before looking over my shoulder. "Well clearly your bitch of the month regrets how she behaved towards me last time or she wouldn't have walked away like a scared little bitch. She caught me off guard last time, it
Letting go Chapter 42
ChristianIt's been 30 minutes since we started looking for Molly but still, there's no sign of her. Mom and Dad have taken the kids into town to the main hall where the whole town will end up today to discuss plans for those that have been affected by the storm, ourselves included. My brothers and I stayed behind to look for Molly and start the clean-up. Zack and Callum headed towards the barns to check those and the top field area just in case we had missed her coming back while Jack, Tom, and I search the trees that Brody saw Molly go in. The tree area that she walked into is more of a mini forest so it could take a while to find her, that is as long as she is still in there and hasn't used it as a shortcut to get away from the farm."Why would she just leave without saying anything?" Jack asks. I've asked myself the same question a hundred times already and there's only one answer that I can come up with. "I think it's because of me." Jack looks at me with confusion but Tom doesn
