Their Precious Time Fades.

Chapter 3.

Lilac POV.

I'm eating dinner with the family and Julieta and Augustine are whispering.

I finished my food as does everyone else and I collect the dishes and head to the sink.

I start washing the dishes and I start humming a song.

Lilac“ Mama told me you'll find a prince one day but I found one a commoner who made my day go away.

I feel arms wrap around me and I yelp and drop the plate I was washing.

Augustine“ Oh dear I'm sorry sweetie I didn't-.

Lilac“ It's fine it's fine I'll get a broom.

Augustine“ Darling I'll sweep it up-.

Lilac“ No no doctor says I gotta fix what I broke I fix what I broke.

I start sweeping completely focused on my floor.

Augustine POV.

Fix what she's broke?

Lilac POV.

I finished the sweeping and I go back to the dishes and wash them.

*Later*

I'm knitting a scarf and I notice my alarm for my meds I head downstairs to the kitchen and open the cupboard.

Lilac“ Where's my meds?

I look around for them and I can't find them NO NO I'M GOING TO FEEL EMOTIONS!

Julieta“ Amor are you looking for those pills?

I turn to Julieta and she's looking at me with a concerned look.

Lilac“ Where are they?

Julieta“ We got rid of them cause your not yourself!

Lilac“ But I need them!

Julieta slaps me across the face I gasp at her as she has a shocked look.

Lilac“ I'm sorry *looks down at the floor* I'll um go to my room.

Julieta“ Darling I'm so sorry I just-.

Lilac“ No no I deserved it I deserved I'll go to bed.

Julieta grabs my hand and makes me look at her.

Julieta“ You don't deserve violence *concerned* You deserve love and those pills being gone will help you.

Lilac“ But what if I repeat that day?

Julieta“ Then we'll be here *hugs lilac* And were never sending you away again.

*What do you think drove lilac mad?*
