Be With You

39

I end up crying the whole night still thinking about the scene in my head over and over again.

Wiping my tears when I remember how my sister was very different that time...terrified.

After that incident, I received a message from Kate that she was fine and that was nothing.

I don't believe that what I saw was just nothing. I tried to call her but she ignored it and told me to not tell anyone what happened.

"Why Kate allowed that to happen?" I sniffed and felt Quen's arms tightened his hug to me, kissing my hair and whispering comforting words.

I decided to go home with Quen in his pad because I don't think I can manage not to tell what happened to my parents or even manage to calm myself down and not burst into tears when I saw them.

If my reaction was like this, what more to our parents who really adore Kate. I don't want them to feel what I felt tonight but of course if her husband really was hurting her, I want her to leave that guy.

My sister didn't deserve that treatment.

I almost closed my eyes when Quen pulled my body more to him...scooting my body more to him, like he was trying to protect me. We were both laying on his bed, he was hugging me from the back like he didn't want to get off me. Maybe he senses what I'm feeling and wants right now.

"I don't know either, kj..." he whispers and kisses my hair, his hand gently caressing it. "But your sister needs you right now."

I nodded sniffing. "Now I understand why she didn't want to have her honeymoon..." that made my heart hurt because I didn't pay attention when I heard our mom asking her before the wedding. "I want to go to Kate tomorrow...I want to know everything...if she's okay." I bit my lower lip when another sob came out of my lips and turned around so I was facing Quen. My hands wrapped around his neck and buried my face on his chest.

I heard him softly humming while he was rubbing my back. "I'll drive you there tomorrow. Stop crying, kj. You need to be strong if you want to help Kate."

I nodded but moved my body closer to him, snuggling and let all my emotions burst that night.

We stayed in that position until I fell asleep.

Quen drove me the next day to Kate's unit where she and her husband were staying right now. That's why she didn't want a honeymoon...or to live at Carl's house.

"Message me if you need something, alright?" Quen held my hand and kissed it. "If something went wrong, call me."

I nodded and gave him a small smile. His eyes were a bit worried while staring at me. Obviously he doesn't want to leave me alone but he has no choice. This issue was just between me and my sister.

"I'll call you, Quen. Don't worry." I move to my seat so I can kiss him on the lips. "Thank you for not leaving my side last night." Smiling at him and caressing his cheek. "I love you."

"I love you." He answered back and kissed my cheek. "I'm just here, okay?"

"Hmm, I know." Kissing his lips for the last time before going out and waving my hand goodbye.

Before going up to Kate's unit I received a message from Quen that made me want to run back to him and just spend more time.

babe ♡: whatever it is babe, you need to understand your sister. It is you she all got right now. I love you. Message me if you want someone to talk to :)
