Lilly

SUDDEN CHANGES CHAPTER 22

Roman was now sitting at his desk continuing his work as Lilly slept. He began to wonder why she was there when he asked her to not come with him today. Roman wanted to be alone he didn't want to see anyone as he felt floods of anger linger around his body. He seemed to be annoyed at his mother, Emma, and Price but he wasn't angry with Daisy, Shelly, or Lilly. He just didn't want to take his anger out on the people he cared about.

It was now the end of the day and Lilly was still fast asleep on the sofa she had been out for about four hours which was a good thing for Roman as he was able to finish his work for the day. He stood up from his desk and went over to Lilly waking her up. "Lilly, wake up" said Roman as he shook her body. "Huh?" said Lilly as she sat up with confusion. "How long was I out for?" asked Lilly as Roman sat beside her. "What are you doing here?" asked Roman as he just looked at her. "I wanted to come and see if you were okay and then I must have dosed off." Explained Lilly. "What did my mum say to you?" asked Roman with curiosity. "Nothing much" lied Lilly as she was hoping Roman would drop the subject. "Don't lie to me!" snapped Roman as he stood up and looked at Lilly placing his hands on his hips in fury. "She said, you have had a bad temper since the change" she said in a lower voice. "She's right Lilly, I have changed." Explained Roman as Lilly stood up and tried to kiss him when he just pushed her on to the sofa. "Lilly, you didn't listen to me!" yelled Roman as he stood shadowing over Lilly. "I'm sorry" said Lilly as her eyes began to water. "I told you to go to school, and you didn't listen to that either." Said Roman in a harsh tone as he walked away from Lilly. "Roman I'm, I'm really" stuttered Lilly as she placed her head in her hands. "Save it Lilly, we're done!" snapped Roman as he sat back down behind his desk organising it for the morning. "Roman I love you" said Lilly as he approached his desk when he picked up his office phone. "Security, would you mind escorting my guest out." Roman said down the phone when moments after two guards came dragging her out as she tried to struggle. Her cries could be heard down the corridor gradually fading as she moved further away down the hall entering the lift.

School was now over, and Lilly manged to pass her exams and she also had a spot on the cheer team for the last three weeks as the girl in her class had an injury and need someone to cover her spot whilst she recovered. It had been four months since Roman broke up with Lilly. Roman was now eighteen and Lilly had just turned seventeen. She was still good friends with Shelly but whenever she went over Oliva and Roman were never there. The red convertible hadn't been outside for like the past two months, so Lilly presumed he had sold it or moved it somewhere else to hide the reminder from her.

Lilly was now working at a local café called Wendys five days a week and she spent the weekend at home with Emma even though the two didn't seem to be as close anymore. She would spend most of the time locked in her room. Daisy was now four years old and starting to talk a lot every Saturday morning Shelly and Lilly would take Daisy to the local park and push her on the swings because she really liked that. Lilly also kept in touch with Peter as he seemed to be nice to her at school, he even gave Roman the picture she worked on, but she never seemed to of got a thank you. Roman hadn't contacted her since he broke up with her.

One morning when Lilly was getting ready for work, she suddenly felt unwell as she had the urge to run to the bathroom. She slumbered into the bathroom and lifted the lid of the toilet as she started to vomit. "Lilly?" called Emma as she tapped the bathroom door as Lilly continued to be sick. "Lilly are you okay?" Lilly still didn't respond as her sickness continued. "I'm calling Wendy's you shouldn't go in today." Said Emma as she walked downstairs and dialled the number. "Hi, I'm just calling to say Lilly won't be in today as she is violently being sick" said down the phone. "No worries, hope she feels better soon" said the voice as Emma hung up the phone after then rushing back up stairs to the bathroom. Emma tapped the door with concern as the vomiting sounds had stopped. "Lilly?" she said as she tapped the door again. "Lilly are you okay?" she asked again. There was still no reply. "Lilly, can I come in?" she said as she opened the door to find Lilly passed out on the floor. "Lilly?" said Emma as she started shaking her. Emma didn't know what to do because she couldn't take her to the proper hospital because of her being half human when she remembered Oliva telling her a little bit about the Godfrey industries that could provide some private care, to people born differently.
