VENUS & MARS [MPREG ENG VERSION]

THE ELEVATOR

|CHAPTER XXI|

I don't know how I found my way home that day. I've been a mess. I tried to control my desire to cry, to scream, to turn off everything that I felt.

Once I got off the elevator, I managed to control some of my anger by doing a breathing exercise. I was about to see the person who had lied to me for months.

As I was looking for the door knob. I heard laughter from inside the apartament and that's when I noticed that all the guests were leaving.

"Good to know you're not dead, we were worried!" said Mr. Bower with a sense of humor.

"Really?" I laughed ironically.

I walked right into the house when I saw 'em. Maybe my bad humor was visible to everyone, including Louis. The moment he saw me, he got up.

"Babe, what happened?" He asked the minute I sat on the couch.

"Nothing." I replied and I felt a strong headache. "I just need to rest, Louis."

My husband was silent, but he still wanted to touch me. But I succeeded in diverting the touch. That upset him a little.

"He must be drunk." He spoke quietly as he approached the rest of the family.

"Well, we're in the same boat." Massimo's joke made everybody laugh. And unlike me, he definitely seemed drunk.

"I'll drive you home." said Louis when he took the car keys and came to kiss me on the cheek. "I'll be right back, okay? There's medication in the toilet, take a little."

Before that shitty family say goodbye, I got up and took off. My first priority now was to shower and then try to sleep.

Aside from the headache, there was a huge pain in my stomach and I knew that at any time I was going to vomit. I needed to get it out, so I went to the toilet and there I knelt down to force a vomit that came hard but could relieve the physically uncomfortable feeling in my body.

As I was taking a warm shower, I didn't want to think of anything. Remembering everything Harry told me was terrible. It made me want to cry and scream again. I was alone at the house, so I thought it might be a good idea to express those feelings.

I was screaming through the tears running across my skin with the water. I sat on the bathroom floor and stayed there for a few long minutes, reminding myself that I did not deserve this life. It would be a lot easier if I could get rid of everyone and watch them all sink alone into the shit they did. But unfortunately, it wasn't an easy situation and the last thing I wanted at the time was to hurt Harry.

I've been strong so many times before, why shouldn't I still be? Especially when there are so many important things involved. I needed to save from the depths of my heart, the little courage I had left to keep going.
