The Good Wife Chapter 32
Kerrick kept his promise, I was able to see my father a few times in the following weeks and he even bought me another cellphone so we could keep in touch. I apologized to Samantha and Victoria for cutting them off and becoming distant but they were more than happy to see me again.I was currently with them, waiting for the Independence Day fireworks and watching the celebrations unfold back home. The streets were streaming with life and I was bubbling with excitement but I wished Kerrick had come with me."Daniel, aren't the celebrations exciting!? This year must be the best I've seen in a while!" I looked over at Daniel and smiled but his eyes were fixated on the night sky."Yeah.""I'm glad I came to celebrate Independence with you guys."He smiled and rubbed the back of his head, bringing nostalgia to my heart."I wonder where Sam and Tori are. They said they were going to buy snacks and be back in a moment but it's been half an hour."We we're standing by a building, out of the w

I closed the door behind me when I arrived home, a small smile lingering on my face from last night. When I walked into the living room Kerrick was there so I ran to him."Kerrick! Last night was amazing, I'm sorry you didn't come and-""Why didn't you come home?" His expression was firm and his lips were pulled into a frown."What?" I questioned, confused. "When everything was over it was too late for me to travel by myself so I stayed with my father.""If that's the case you should've called me, I would've come for you. Do you know how many times I called you and you didn't even answer?""My phone died," I said walking over to the couch and putting my handbag down. "I didn't even remember to charge it."I turned towards the stairs but before I could take a step Kerrick grabbed my arm and pulled me back."I'm not done talking to you." I stared at him, the level of anger in his voice unnecessary for the situation."You're overreacting."I peeled his hand away from my arm and went up t

"Delancy are you alright? Is something wrong?" Kerrick placed a hand over mine and looked me over, his face showing concern. I looked up at him, my thoughts breaking as our eyes met and a small smile traced my lips."I'm fine.""Oh, that's good. I'm going to the office to pick up some work, I've already canceled my plans for the rest of today so that'll give us enough time to make it to the counselor.""Alright, you can go, I'll wait for you here." I stared at my hands, anxiety, and dread burning in my stomach."Okay then I won't be long, but remember to call me if you feel sick again."I nodded to him and he picked up his things from the desk. I followed him up to the door, and he smiled at me before walking out, getting in his car, and leaving.It took me two moments before I moved but when I did I went up the stairs, quickly packing my things and emptying my clothes from the closet into my chest. When I finally had all my things together, I took them downstairs with me and out the
The Good Wife Epilogue
"After learning about the problems Delancy was having with her husband, she decided to stay with me for a while to sort things out between them. I was so angry at first but my heart slowly grew towards Kerrick when Delancy spoke to me about his past. Trust was the hardest thing to regain in their relationship, Delancy told me, and Kerrick was very difficult with opening up to anyone. They started going to counselling sessions and slowly improvements started showing between them both. She eventually moved back with him because he never stopped coming to see her and showering her with flowers and gifts and I could see it that she missed him a lot. Kerrick, as cold as he seemed, had a warm, good heart and he chose to give up everything for Delancy. He left his father's business which infuriated Charles but Kerrick surprisingly didn't seem to care. He started his own business which was slowly growing because of his knowledge and experience and Delancy's help even though she was pregnant.
The Good Wife Bonus Chapter I
Silver puddles glistened on the street outside from the window where I sat, school children walked down the street with their raincoats still draped on as the road and pavement ahead shone in silver. Kaleb cooed, leaning over to touch my face and I laughed before brushing back his hair and shifting in my seat by the window. He leaned over again and reached up to touch me but I held him steady and kept staring out the window while he sat back in my lap. "Soon you'll be going to school like those children outside," I told him and smiled. "I'll be watching you come home." Kerrick and I bought a beautiful house together in a very nice neighborhood, though a little bigger than our last one because we had to think of our growing boy. It had cream-colored walls and a comfy interior, each room exuding warmth. We had only been living here for the past few months but I'd already developed a great love for this place. "School?" Kerrick said coming from another room. "He has plenty more growin

I ran the tips of my fingers over the soft delicate petals of the roses I carried as I followed my father's footsteps. Slowly he stopped and kneeled on the ground as we made it to our destination, my mother's grave."She was so pretty, your mother." He spoke without meeting my eyes, taking the flowers I was carrying and the ones he also had, he placed them in matching ceramic vases opposite each other by her gravestone. "She was so young and I don't think I'll ever stop loving and missing her.""I'm sorry," I looked at my father sadly but with a tinge of happiness that we were finally able to come here together after so long. "I guess I'll never truly understand the pain you went through when you lost her but that just goes to show how much she meant to you and me."My father tucked the last rose firmly in the vase next to him and touched her gravestone again, closing his eyes for a moment when he did so. "You know, I still feel her with me, regardless of the time that's passed, I ca

Sunlight filtered through the curtains by the window as a cool gust of wind blew in and the sky was still overcast from recent rain. The sound of children laughing and running by putting a smile on my face as I waited patiently. I looked over at Kerrick who was quietly working at the table with a mug near his face, wafts of steam warming his lips but not taking the concentration from his eyes as he reviewed his papers. I turned back to the window which looked up the street that all the children were coming down and searched until finally, I saw Kaleb coming my way, his smile warming my heart as he ran along the street. He was walking between two friends, but he was unmistakable from his dark hair protruding from under his yellow raincoat, his obsidian eyes, and his quick stride. I watched him wave goodbye to them and cross the street before running up to the house and I left the window to greet him at the door. "Mom!" He said surprised to see me already waiting for him. I gave him a b

"Where are you going so early?" I asked my son while clearing the table after breakfast. Kaleb had changed out of his pajamas into a blue jumper paired with a white T-shirt and was currently tying his shoelaces. "I'm going to meet my friends, remember I told you." He said jumping to his feet. "I do but it's still early," I said looking over at the wall clock and sighing. "Okay but remember to come home for lunch," I followed him to the door and watched as he hopped on his bicycle before riding off. "Bye, mom!" He called back to me as he went up the road. "Keep out of the road and watch out for cars!" I responded as he rode away and he paused momentarily to nod before continuing on his way. I turned to go back into the house so I could help Kerrick get ready but not before glancing up the street at my son's retreating figure. Once inside I got Kerrick's things together and put them on the table just as I heard him coming down the stairs. "Where's Kaleb?" Kerrick asked while fixing
