Chapter 20 - Funeral and Home Alone with Daniel (part 1)

Mollie’s POV: 

Today is Robin’s funeral and I feel like a shell of myself, a shell of a human, a shell, empty and alone in an ocean more like an abyss.

I’ve been sat staring out the window for about an hour or so, I can hear everyone moving around and talking lightly but I can’t bare to move. 

The funeral starts in 2 hours, not many people will be there and I hate that.

No one even knew who she was, she didn’t have the time she deserved, she never hurt anyone. 

I didn’t notice I was crying until I felt the dampness of my jumper. I wiped it away with my sleeve and half-heartedly pulled myself together. 

I heard a faint knock at my door “Come in,” I said hoarsely 

Gina walked in with a sympathetic smile, she shut the door slowly behind her and sat down next to me.

“How you holding up sweet?” 

“I don’t know, I didn’t sleep well and I’m just scared, I don’t want to let her go yet,”

Gina pulled me into her warm embrace and played with my hair.

“I know you’re scared Mol, I know you’re hurting but she isn’t going anywhere, she’s always with you just don’t forget that she needs you to be as strong as you can be yeah, she hasn’t gone anywhere,” 

I pulled away harshly, tears brimming in my eyes.

“How can you say that?!” I shouted “She hasn’t gone anywhere? I’m never going to see her again! I promised I’d be back for her, I told her she’d never be alone, it’s all my fault! She was tangled in strings I wove! I will never be able to let it go!” 

I let everything out

“You know what it’s like to see her everywhere, dead and crying! Calling my fucking name and I wasn’t there! I wasn’t there for her! I didn’t save her! I promised I would be there, I swore to her, I was the only one she had! I let her down and now I will never ever see her again!” 

At this point the boys had come in but I didn’t care

“Don’t you ever tell me she is here, or she didn’t leave because she fucking has! You have no idea what this feels like, the weight of it on my chest, you have no idea, it should never have been Robin! It should have been me! I should have died! An eye for an eye, yet she will never have justice!”

I watched as Luke tensed up ready to shout back but before he could say anything Gina had ushered everyone out and closed the door behind her.
