The Next Day
Aurora is still asleep while I get off of her. I go into the closet to put a shirt on. I then went down the hall and downstairs to see a few boxes in the foyer.
I walk into the kitchen to see what's going on. Moms sitting at the island with Alessandro. "What's with the boxes in the foyer?" I ask as momma turns around startled by my unannounced presence.
"It's Annabelles boxes. Her butler or whatever brought them over a little bit ago." Alessandro said irritated.
Who?
I sat down a little curious on who the hell Annabelle is, "So who's Annabelle?" I ask.
Alessandro sighs and said, "The mafia princess I have to marry with in the next month or so. So I can become the new don of our mafia." I nod.
"Oh shit. When does she move in?" I question because I really want to know. "She will be moving in a few days after you go to college..."
Well hopefully both of the girls get along.
"Do you guys think Aurora and Annabelle will get along?" I ask genuinely wondering if they will be fine around each other while i'm gone because I know Aurora and how she would act if she didn't like Annabelle.
Mom shrugs, "Not sure Tesoro, she seems like a sweet girl but that could be all fake."
I groan knowing that if Annabelle is fake Aurora will tolerate her but not for long.
Alessandro and momma start to talk about something while I grab an apple from the fruit basket. I sit down in my chair and take a big chunk out of the apple.
As I mind my own business two small arms wrap around my shoulders as I already know who the lovely person is behind me. It's my beautiful girlfriend Aurora.
Once she moves I scoot my chair back a little and invite her to sit on my lap. She sits on my lap then steals my apple and takes a bite out of it. Once she hands the apple back to me she just looks at me and kisses my cheek. She then gets up and walks into the living room.
After I finish my apple I get up to throw away the left over of the apple and then walked to the living room to see what Aurora was doing.
I look at the couch to see Aurora just laying there zoned out in her own thoughts. I sit down next to her as she just looks at me then goes back into her thoughts.
She worries me sometimes when she's like this.
I ended up laying down with her. She turns so she's facing me, I move a few strands of hair out of her face.
"How are you feeling today babe?" I ask out of pure curiosity because of everything yesterday.
She looks at me with no expression and shrugs, "I kind of don't know how I feel. Everything yesterday was so much for me. I just don't know how I should feel. Like am I even supposed to be feeling anything at all?"
I respond with, "I honestly don't know. Maybe it's a natural thing not to feel anything after a horrible experience like yesterday."
I feel horrible.
She gently grabs my hand and intertwines our fingers as I kiss her hand. She gives me a closed smile.
I hate that this happened to her.
She didn't deserve to be treated like that.
Shit no one deserve to be treated like that.
After just laying together Aurora ended up falling asleep on my chest while I watched some tv.
As I was watching tv momma ended up walking in and sitting down on the other couch in the room and asking, "How is she feeling after everything?"
I just answer as honestly as possible and said, "It's definitely overwhelming for her. I can tell that she is going through a numb phase but I think she will be okay in the end."
Momma nods, "That poor girl has been through so much that she doesn't even deserve. I wish she knew how loved she truly is in this house."
I give mom a closed smile before she gets up and leaves the room so she can go to bed. Aurora needs as much love and affection she can get at the moment. I just hate that I leave in less than 2 weeks from now.
I hope I can show her how much I truly love her and how much I really appreciate her being in my life.
Who's going to be there for her while i'm in college?
I just hope that while i'm gone she doesn't go back to her old ways of self harm and hatred. She is way more than just damaged. She's everything to me and sometimes I feel she takes that for granted.
She seems to always feel like she isn't enough. When she is more than enough in my book. I love her. I don't just say that about anyone.
About how much she really is worth.
***
It's been a few hours and Aurora is doing anything she can to stay distracted. She's writing in her notebooks,reading her crazy books she gets from Keilanni, listening to music and talking to the girls.
How do I help her with this?
She has tried to go to the restroom but I always went up there with her because I just had a really bad feeling that if I didn't go i'd be sending her to the hospital again like last time and I don't think I can go through that again.
I can't go through that again.
I just can't see the one person I truly love with everything in me do that to themselves.
It feels like it breaks me more than it does her.
I can't deal with the thought of losing her.
