ELIDETH MERCURY RAISED AGAIN FROM HER ASHES TO BECOME A STRONGER WOMAN. WILL SHE BE ABLE TO FACE EVERYTHING THIS DANGEROUS TIME TRAVEL HAS IN STORE FOR HER?
Our phone call rattled me and I was still hesitant about my so called firm decision. It was a thoughtful decision but seemingly he was reluctant to take that final step and that made it even more painful.
There were so many words to describe my relationship with Freddie. It had been nice, more than nice. Full of passion, pain, disappointment, jealousy, irrational desire. In short, so full of love, that I couldn't spoil it all. We had a son. Everything was out of control since we were determined to become parents and it wasn't a silly whim. Neither for his part or mine. So thinking of Farrokh and what he meant for us, my decision after so many tears was the best thing. The divorce.
There was a point in which I fought hard against it. But I guess it was supposed to happen sooner or later. It would be good for the three of us and I intended to be a family. Not an ordinary family, that's for sure. But at least Farrokh must feel our union regardless of our sentimental situation.
I was ready. It was the right time now that he was in the middle of Munich turmoil. Winnie, Barbara, nightlife. If now I withdraw, it would be easier before Jim show up. Maybe my heart wouldn't be so broken.
I didn't leave Munich just to get him angry. The almost unbearable intensity of my role in this mission, role that I had to share with my "real life", the life I had chosen to live with him, drove me into these breaking points. The Bulsara home was once again my shelter from the storm but you couldn't deceive or fake in front of Jer. She knew me so well and could guess things between Freddie and I were not working fine.
- Whatever it is you will work it out -she assured me with widened smile, grasping my hand.
- Is it so obvious we got something to work out?
- Eli, you are crystal clear like a blue sky. I know it's not easy keeping a marriage, and even more with someone like Freddie.
- Do you think he's not made to be married?
- I wouldn't be so radical. Of course he's made to be free, he's someone very complex but I think he needs you in his life. You came into his life with a purpose, right?
I looked at her with my eyes wide-open, stunned. She seemed to have insider information as well as his son. She seemed to know which the nature of my appearance was. I had appeared to save his life, not to make it harder.
- Eli, can you hear me?
- Sorry, Jer. Tell me.

- I don't wanna kick you out. Your coming has filled us with joy but don't wait too long and come back to your husband. Have you already talked?
- Yes, we have talked. But I guess we need to talk in depth.
- You should talk about it. Mostly about those ugly things that maybe they are so hard to bring out.
- Maybe after bringing them out, there will be no turning back.
