A few months later
Labor pains choked her, she screamed, she struggled in bed, looking for strength to remove the child from her womb, the midwives screamed incessantly to have strength, holding a pillow and the edge of the mattress, Angelina screamed with all her strength, finally removing the child from your belly. Hearing the nurses' celebrations, Angelina, sweaty and tired, took a deep breath on the bed and collapsed.
"It's a girl!" Said one of the women present from the place, handing the baby over to Angelina's lap.
Removing the strands glued to her soft forehead and putting her back, Angelina could have a better view of her little girl, a girl with thinning red hair. With that vision, Angelina cried, cried softly for the rejection, for the betrayal, for the mourning of her husband who longed to see the child and for all the attitudes that she committed for her past that came to mind. Tired of the effort she made, Angelina babbled very quietly, only to her daughter.
"I'm going to get everything back, okay?" Said the woman, still emotional.
To the midwives in silence, she watched Madame Red cry with her daughter in her arms, confused, the women found answers for the woman's cry, remembering the mourning, the midwives believed that the cry would be for the loss of her husband, taking the child, the women fixed the local and the baby in silence out of respect for the mother, delivering the baby to the nurses, they left the room.
After a few days, Angelina received a visit from her parents, Mr. Dalles did not think the image that Angelina had to bear as a solo mother was good, people found it disgusting. In the middle of a conversation in the bedroom of the woman who was resting, Angelina lying down, understood what her father wanted at that moment.
"If you think I will hand my daughter over to the church and get married again, know that not!" I won't do this! My girl is the result of marriage to my husband! "Angelina said firmly and strongly.
"How disobedient you are, Angelina!" Don't you hear what the girls say? The man asked.
"I don't care what they say about me, nor do I care about it." My concern is only with my daughter, "said Angelina.
"Okay ... what's the child's name?" Asked the nonconformist.
"Grell," Angelina said, remembering the promise made to her husband.
"But this is a man's name, and she is a girl, change this name ... the meaning is terrible," said the man, disgusted by all those attitudes that Angelina was taking towards her daughter.
—Grellie. And I'm not going to change, "said the woman, crossing her arms, snorting tiredly, the man left the place, tired of explaining or putting order in his daughter's head, left leaving her alone with the child.
5 years later.
As time went by, Angelina closed herself, became a more closed woman, focused on the creation of her girl, from time to time she danced alone and received judging looks from everyone, some bold women constantly asked about leaving her daughter alone , doing the redhead gives acidic responses to women. Despite being a widow, Angelina received several gifts from single men who wanted to have relationships with the woman, but Angelina always refused, she didn't want any more headaches.
Angelina received visits from her parents, and from her sister with her brother-in-law often, she liked the presence of her parents, but seeing the Phantomhive couple killed her, but Madame always pretended to be well. It hurt her heart to know that Vicente never wanted to recognize his own daughter, he treated her like a relative, a distant relative, never like his girl.
A few weeks later, Rachel announced her pregnancy shaking even more the redhead's heart that found itself floorless, having to change that whole plan, she needed to reorganize everything again in her mind. Seeing her sister happy telling herself about the pregnancy made her sad, she wanted to be happy for her beloved sister, but she couldn't do it, she just pretended, pretended that everything was fine.
Madame thought that her life was a theater, that she was an actress, she pretended emotions contrary to her heart, she felt tremendous unhappiness, but she thought about her girl, she didn't want her daughter to live only because of her fault and because of the father, but it was precisely for her daughter that Angelina swore revenge.
The months passed, and as requested by Rachel, Angelina delivered her sister, bringing the twins Ciel and Astre into the world. After giving birth, she could see the happiness of her sister and brother-in-law, her heart overflowed with sadness and envy, not being able to endure it quickly ended things and withdrew returning home.
She felt she needed to be strong, strong for her girl. It was not easy to reconcile work with her daughter, but she did what she could to balance everything and be so present in Grellie's life. It was an arduous and tiring task, and she had to listen constantly unpleasant comments about you, about being single and taking care of a girl alone, it was painful, it was painful.
Grellie, or Grell, as she was affectionately nicknamed by her mother, was a sweet girl and attached to Angelina who always carried sadness in her eyes, always wanted to cheer the woman she admired and was her inspiration. She slept with her and always wanted to be with the woman all day, listened to the stories that the older redhead told about her life and life in the hospital, also wanting to be a doctor when she grew up. Deep in her, she wanted to make her happy, to remove, once and for all, that sad look that she always carried.
She felt in her realm, in the somewhat distant future, that what both Angelina and Grell wanted would come true. She didn't know how, or when, but she felt it would come true.
With the news of her aunt Rachel's pregnancy, Grellie could see her mother's eyes becoming more and more sad, no matter how much she asked, her mother never said what bothered her so much. On the one hand, the child felt sad, on the other, she was happy to have cousins and that she would not be alone in that mansion. The little girl was always left in the care of her aunt or grandpa Tanaka, who were a sweet and kind man to her while her mother was away, her aunt was always with her, reading incredible books of romance that kept her excited, daydreaming in a prince who was so mentioned in the books.
Although all relatives are loving to you, Grellie has always noticed something strange about her uncle, her aunt's husband. The man, despite being kind and polite to the girl, constantly avoided her and that made her feel uncomfortable and felt that there was something strange about that boy; Although Grell never told people, except for her mother, she could see auras and could see if the person was good or bad, the girl was always very sensitive, and every time she saw her uncle, she felt an enormous weight in the environment and saw a dark aura around the man, and that shivered her up the spine. But the girl never said anything and was afraid of being scolded, as she was every time by her maternal grandfather, for being too talkative.
"Mom, why is Uncle Vicente so weird?" The girl asked and her mother looked at her curiously.
"He's so weird, I hear scary things and I see something dark around him," the girl said, hugging her mother even tighter.
"Grellie my love, you didn't say anything to him, right?" Angelina asked and Grellie nodded. "Forget about it and let's go to sleep," said the mother in a tone of concern, she knew very well what her daughter had and she knew who she got it from.
When she separated from Vicente, Angelina discovered things not only about what he did, but also the boy's family history, for Madame, that was an extreme shock and she often felt cursed. As she had taken her actions, Angelina decided to persist with her choice and prepared herself with what she had, keeping it a secret... for now.
