Laying in bed all I could do was picture every meet up I ever had with William. I could see the things that I didn't say and I hated it. I hated that my brain didn't work faster at the time to make every moment memorable. This was absolutely ridiculous at that time William and I thought it was perfect that's all that matters but still.... I didn't tell him I loved him soon enough. We didn't get together soon enough. We let precious time waste. We were........ My stomach grumbles cutting my thoughts off. It took me into another dimension. I didn't eat dinner or breakfast and I'm pretty sure it's lunch time now. I wasn't feeling hungry but my stomach had a mind of it's own. I threw my leg to the side slipping out of the covers to the ground. I was glad I got around taking a bath. With my blue joggers and white crop top which were now rumbled I head out of the room.
I didn't know if Gladys and Gloria were still here since after this morning incident I haven't left my room and they didn't bother me. I guess it's nice they realized I needed time but how much time? That....even I didn't know. "Hey" Gloria smiles from the sofa and I nodded in her direction before heading to the kitchen. No one was there but I found some leftovers in the freezer. Placing it in the microwave I sat by the breakfast table waiting. I had to admit my father went all out in this house. It was classy but also had a homey feeling and I could definitely see myself living here for the next five years.
The machine dings and I retrieved my food. I considered going back to my room but thought against it. I needed a distraction so I took my food placing it on a trail along with a bottle of apple juice.
"You want to eat here. On this fancy sofa?" Gloria asks bouncing on the sofa for illustration. "Yeah" I stated simply before sitting across her on the L shaped couch. I wanted to ask what she was watching but I wasn't ready to hold a conversation yet it was way too soon. "Sarah and Geraldine wanted to go shopping tomorrow" she informs taking her eyes from the tv to watch me. I nodded. They were not children, they didn't need my permission. "They said you were coming too" I opened my mouth to object but she beats me ot it. "I told them you weren't ready but they said you guys do everything together and a breakup could never change that". I don't need to think hard to know Sarah was the one who said that. Geraldine was more compassionate and understanding. But Sarah! That bitch didn't give a damn and I secretly liked that. I didn't want them to start treating me differently because of this. "I will try to talk them out of going this soon" I said. "It might work since Sarah insists on giving you only one week before dragging your arse on a tour" Gloria laughs. I looked down to hide my small smile why I did that I didn't know. She took my attitude as dismissal and looked back at her show.
Instead of starting a conversation I took my now finished plate to the kitchen. Washing it up quickly before rolling back up the stairs. All the other doors were closed but I'm sure Sarah and Gera would rather take an upstairs bedroom than downstairs. Pushing my door open I released a scream before frowning. Sarah and Gera laid in my bed. Gera pats the middle were they left space. Not ready for an argument I climbed in and they immediately embraced me. No words were said but the gesture brought tears to my eyes they were here for me no matter my bitchy attitude.
After we all took a quick nap which I actually slept through Sarah sits up. "I was thinking we could go shopping tomorrow" she runs her hand through my hair. Gera was still hugging me and me her. "Can't we postpone till next week?" I lifted my head to meet her gaze. She sighs, "fine....only because I want you to actually enjoy the shopping" she smiles. "I know it's not healthy but you need a distraction from your pain. Should we check out the house?" "Like a tour?" "Yes Gloria and Gladys gave us one earlier. The house is really cool" Gera releases me sitting up also. She climbed down along with Sarah. Seeing no harm in a tour I joined them.
"Let's start with my bedroom" Sarah pushed open the door closer to mine. It was big but not as big as mine. "How did my dad know your favorite color was purple?" I asked in awe. Her room was a lovely shade of purple so was her canopy bed. Her nightstand had an expensive looking lamp on it which I'm pretty sure Sarah carried from America. Her vanity table was at the left and a full length mirror laid beside it. On the right a door leading to her walk-in closet sat. "I don't know maybe my parents told him" she shrugs before pointing at the door. "That's my walk in closet unlike you I have to share a bathroom with Geraldine" she glares at the redhead. "Hey! You haven't lived with me before, don't look so grumpy" Gera scoffs crossing her arms. "I'm sure you will load the bathroom with boy products" Sarah argues. "Haha! I'm sure you will load the bathroom with scented oils" Gera spits back. I ignored their banter walking closer to the left wall. Just beside her vanity table above her full length mirror a picture of Joseph Morgan was hung just like mine but he was wearing a different outfit. "I have one too with also a different attire" Gera smiles once she saw where my focus was. "Don't you just love being able to see him before and after a nap. I can have a freaking wet dream with this" Sarah runs her hand through it. "Ew! Too much information Sara. Lizzy come on the tour has only began". We walked out, "that's our shared bathroom" Gera points to the door directly across Sarah's. We walked alittle further coming across another door. It was just beside the stairs and I could see a bigger door after the stairs. "Is there another room on this floor?" I pointed at it. "Patience Lizzy" Sarah smirks before pushing Gera's bedroom door open and pulling me in.
"I'm not even surprised" I scoffed at the dark interiors. "Don't judge I didn't laugh at your makeshift Disney world" she mocks, "it's cute" I laughed. I actually loved that my room was like that of a child it made me believe that this faces will pass just like my childhood did. Gera also had a walk in closet, a nightstand with no lamp and a vanity table. And like usual Nicklaus sat staring at us vampire teeth on display.
"Now for the room you were curious about" we walked passed the stairs stopping in front of the door. "Do the honors" Gera gestures to the closed door and without hesitation I pushed it open.
♥️♥️♥️♥️A good distraction can help with pain, try it and you'll thank me later. It's not healthy though you should face your pain but just Incase you need a break.
