116 GOING THROUGH ANOTHER PAIN

It was July’s last movie before she decided to call it a break.

She didn’t attend any events nor did she post anything on her social media. She disappeared like a ghost which left people wondering about her.

Yet, the news about her disappearance would never last longer than the news about people who died in the attack of the supernatural creatures.

And during that time, July secluded herself in her own apartment, not even bothering to pick up any phone call or replying to any messages from her friends, who were worried about her condition, since they didn’t know what happened to her.

The rumor about her dating Knox McKeltar had long been forgotten, since there was not much evidence of it.

And now, after more than five months, July was completely alone in her own world, waiting without any certainty...

Until one night, she felt his presence. Someone was watching her from the dark.

July opened her eyes and found those deep, dark blue eyes that she longed to see were staring right at her.

Knox was sitting on the edge of her bed, holding her hand gently. No one knew how long he was there...

.....

“Hey,” Knox said, smiling softly at her.

For a moment, July was in trance, she couldn’t do anything, except staring at him and observing his expression.

He looked tired, exhausted even, there was a small cut on the corner of his bottom lip. She wondered what caused it since it was easy for him to heal himself.

But, aside from that, he looked exactly like she remembered. Handsome, radiant, brilliant, the man that she loved.

“Don’t cry...” Knox said, he wiped away the tears from her face and caressed her cheek.

July could feel his callous fingers against her skin and that was the moment she realized it was real. He has come...

After such a long time she waited for him, he finally came to her.

“I am sorry, I am very sorry, love...” Knox said as he pulled July into his warm embrace, buried his face against her shoulder, as he breathed in her lovely scent. He loved her. He loved her with every fiber of his being.

Five months was nothing compared to the time that he had spent in his eternity, but it was five months of being away from her that felt so different.

Knox thought he could stay away from her for her own safety, leaving her without any word, since it was hard to say goodbye to her. He didn’t even know what he could say to her or what he could offer...

Their time was different, in this life, there was nothing he could do to keep her close to him, without getting her hurt at the end of the day.

She would be the one, who would take the brunt if they continue this relationship.

And yet, here he was... sitting on her bed, watching her facing trouble sleeping. Her brows furrowed deeply and she kept calling his name every now and then.

It had been five months, but she had not gotten better. If anything, her condition only got worse, she shut all the people out of her life...

July’s body was trembling in his arms, she was crying her heart out and there was nothing Knox could do to lessen her pain.

“I am sorry, my love...” Knox whispered into her ear, if he could, he wanted to take away all of her pain, he wanted her to forget about him, since it would be best for her to live her life without knowing him.

But, he couldn’t do that and the thought of her not remembering anything that they had gone through together, was almost like a physical pain for him.

“You left me...” July cried, she hugged him tightly, as if she didn’t do that, Knox would disappear again and she would wake up to find out this was only a dream... “Why didn’t you say anything?”

Knox kissed her cheeks and her forehead. “I am sorry.” And those were the only words that he could say, though it was not enough to express all of his feelings for her.

“Don’t ever do that again!” July grabbed Knox’s collar, as she looked at him right in the eyes with her teary eyes. “Don’t leave me again!”

However, Knox couldn’t promise that. He had nothing to offer to her...

====================

Lise was laying down on the hospital bed, waiting for her labor, since the interval of the pain had become closer with Gael sitting on the chair beside her bed, refusing to leave her alone.

Meanwhile, Anne had prepared everything for this moment and she was very enthusiastic to welcome a new member into the family.

Lise couldn’t say that it was a family, but this was the only thing that was close to it...

She was glad to know that her family survived the earthquake months ago and were now living their lives normally even without her.

“It will hurt for you to have normal labor, don’t you want...” Gael kept fussing over this fact. He wanted her to have painless delivery, but Lise was hellbent to have it normal, since the doctor said she could do it.

“No, Gael... I want it this way.” She held his hand and it felt so cold to her touch. His condition sometimes worried her, since occasionally he would look so frail.

Lise knew what made him that way and she was sorry for that... she didn’t mean to put him in harm’s way, she just...

“I am sorry to put you through pain again...” Gael lowered his head and kissed her knuckles, remorse palpable in his eyes.

Lise sighed, as she caressed his curly hair and spoke in a low voice, as the pain came again. “This is a pain that I am willing to go through.”

One thing that Lise conceded; there was no way she would hate her own child...
