2 MONTHS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE ACCIDENT and eliana felt almost normal again. there was no fear and no having to live in the shadows. her friendship with the triplets has been better than ever, all of them hanging out whenever they could.
she learned of the boys' youtube channel and was so proud to see how many subscribers they had. eliana knew they always had potential to do something great and this was exactly that.
eliana had continued to write songs whenever she got the chance. she wrote about her experiences the past 2 and a half years, the pain she felt, the feeling of leaving her friends and even some songs on how she felt about chris.
eliana's mom decided it was a good idea for her to go to therapy. there wasn't a moment eliana had actually talked in depth about everything she had been through. her mom didn't want to risk it catching up to her.
at the moment, eliana was on her way to her first appointment.
"good afternoon, eliana. i'm courtney, it's nice to meet you." the therapist she had booked seemed very friendly and had great reviews online so she had set up an appointment with her right away.
"good afternoon, it's nice to meet you too." eliana said back with a smile on her face.
"okay let's start. when you filled out the questionnaire online, it says the main reason is because of the things that have happened the last couple years, correct?" eliana nodded her head at the therapist's statement and began speaking.
she started with the night her mom woke her up to the car accident two months ago. it was harder than eliana thought to talk about everything. she used to think therapy was stupid but in all honesty, she felt better already.
it was like a huge burden on her chest. the triplets, her mom, and even marylou had known everything. that's why she jumped at the opportunity when he mom brought up the idea of therapy.
"so you have been through a lot that past couple years. do you know who did this to you?" the gut wrenching question made her sick to her stomach. "yes, unfortunately. it was my father. i had never met him and the reason for him doing all of this is still unclear but honestly i'd rather not know the answer." the therapist saw the signs to move on from the question, so she changed the subject.
"and how does it feel to have your friends back?" the therapist asked her.
"it feels amazing honestly. i missed them dearly when i left. i wish i could've had an opportunity to reach out but i wasn't allowed to. we've been closer than ever before." eliana meant every word she had said. having madi, alahna and the triplets back in her life didn't make her feel lonely like she was.
"that's great, it's always good to have people to lean on for help. make sure when something is bothering you about what you've been through, you'll talk to someone." courtney said to her.
"of course, i realized it isn't healthy keeping it bottled up. i've actually put most of my feelings into songs. they are the best thing ive created and im hoping someday to get them out into the world."
"keep writing them. you may never know who you help along the way. you'll do amazing things, eliana and i can tell you're going to be okay." eliana took her therapist's words to heart. her mom had always said she'd be great one day but she always felt her mom was biased. hearing it from someone else made her feel better.
eliana had left her therapy appointment, her mom waiting for her outside. kathy was scared to let her daughter drive after her accident so she always made she she took her somewhere or someone was picking her up. eliana wasn't ready to drive anyways so she didn't mind either way.
her mom dropped her off at madi's house, alahna and madi waiting for her outside. even though they spent almost everyday together with the triplets, they had a designated 'girl's day'. one where they would watch romcoms, do their skincare and gossip about whatever they wanted.
what eliana didn't know was that madi had talked to her mom, laura, about eliana's music and that her life was about to take a drastic change. madi wanted eliana to have something good come into her life, she knew how dedicated she was to her music and after hearing her sing one of her songs, she was floored by the talent that came from her best friend.
the next day, madi was awake before eliana and alahna so she made it her mission to see where her mom was with her decision of representing eliana as her manager. she figured it was easier as her mom was already the triplets manager and the triplets vouched for her as well.
about an hour later, both of the other girls walked down the stairs, hearing voices in the kitchen. they were faced with the triplets, madi and laura. they were startled by the amount of faces in one area, not expecting it to say the least.
the boys were bouncing up and down with huge smiles on their faces, causing madi to hit each of their arms to stop them from being suspicious.
"what's going on here?" eliana said rubbing her eyes.
"i don't want you to be mad at me for doing this behind your back. i just wanted something good to come to you after all you've been through. so mom, want to take it away?" madi smiled at her and then at her mom.
"so madi came to me and told me that you had been writing songs for a while and that you're very talented. the triplets vouched for that too so i wanted to offer a chance to be able to get your music out there."
eliana couldn't contain her shock. she stood there mouth opened and eyes wide looking at everyone involved. "what does this mean?"
"i would love to represent you as your manager." laura said, causing eliana to once again, stand there in shock.
"are you serious? i would love that! thank you madi for everything and thank you laura for taking a chance on me, i won't let you down." eliana hugged the both of them.
"oh my god! i have to call my mom!" she ran upstairs to grab her phone, immediately dialing her mom's phone number. "mom! mom! mom!"
on the other end, kathy laughed at the excitement in her daughter's voice. "what is it honey? what's got you all excited this early?"
"i'm getting my music out there finally, laura is my new manager." eliana said, still reeling in excitement. "that's amazing, i'm so proud of you!"
eliana and her mom talked for a few more minutes until she finally hung up. she ran back down the stairs and looked at everyone teary eyed. "thank you all for everything. i love you guys."
and with that, eliana got to work with the people she loved by her side.
