19-little "white" lies

(Char's pov)
I thought I was ready to see her after yesterday but seeing her walk in with that look on her face broke me. I wanted nothing more then to be with her but it all came back to the lies. Why didn't she trust me enough to tell me the truth. Was it something wrong with me? I trusted her with my heart after my it was shattered by the second man I ever loved. Why was it everyone I loved that left me. "Char if you could just let me..." Mia started but I cut her off. "Amelia I don't want to hear it you lied to me about this whole relationship, I trusted you. You said you'd never hurt me like I'd been hurt in the past." I whisper as my voice is taken away by the sobs erupting from my throat. "Char I didn't mean to" she shouts at me causing me to hide my face in Marjorie's neck for protection. This used to be Mia protecting me but now she's the I'm being protected from.

"Amelia just go, this isn't the girl I feel I love with and asked to marry me. That girl never lied to me" there it was again. Amelia. I only ever used that when I was mad at her. Her eyes start to cloud over, I'd only seen her this mad once before and that was at her dad after he tried to get back in contact with her for money as he gambled all his savings away. If this ended anything like that then I was glad Marjorie and Reece were there, at least someone could tell my daughters I loved them if it ended the same way. I closed my eyes and started backing myself away from her. That's when my face is turned from the sudden force and my cheek burns from the impact. Everything just stops for a minute when I hear Reece screaming "Mia what the actual fuck do you think your doing? Get out my house now!" "NO SHE DOESN'T GET ALL THE POWER IN THIS IM IN THIS RELATIONSHIP ASWELL WHY DOES NOBODY SEE THAT" Mia shouts at the top of her lungs that the whole neighbourhood could probably hear her.

I just stay huddled up in the corner of the bathroom for ages until I start to slightly open my eyes and see that it's only me and Marjorie in here. She's sat in front of me holding a ice pack on my face which answers my next question. The sobs just burst out and I let it all out. If I wasn't sure about calling of the engagement before I was now, I won't let myself go back there. Not again. I see Marjorie grabbing something from behind her back and she says softly "here my love I know it can be hard to talk about what your feeling but you can't keep it bottled up either as that isn't healthy so I want you to write it down. As much of as little as you want." I take the notebook and pen and she whispers "if you need anything just shout me okay my love" and with that she gets up and walks out the bathroom leaving me alone with my thoughts. I open the notebook and start writing

Why can't she just tell me the truth and trust me? That is all I want just for her to trust me but I don't recognise her. Not after that the Mia I know should never be violent with me that's Amelia not my sweetheart Mia. Is it something I did that made her not trust me? I just want to go back to when I was on a high, I had the girl of my dreams we were planning the wedding of our dreams with my gorgeous daughters by our side now it's all fallen to pieces.

As I start to write the sobs just keep coming, that's when I hear the door crack open. It was Reece. "Charlotte I know you don't want to hear her out but I think you need to listen to why she didn't tell you. Nathan came back to get a divorce because the only reason why she married him was to get away from my dad. That was her only way out alive but she didn't want it to change anything between you and her so she didn't tell you. Trust me when I say this Mia would never hurt you intentionally." My heart sank. She did all that to make it out alive. "So it was a little white lie to protect me?" I questioned him and he nods.

I rip out the page I had just written and screw it in a ball and throw it in the bin. "Where is she?" I find myself questioning "she's outside on the doorstep why?" He answers quickly I don't reply I just find myself getting up and walking downstairs to the front door. I pull it open and she looks up at me, her eyes all puffy from crying, I just pull her up by her wrist and fall into her arms sobbing into her shoulder.

"I'm sorry I didn't listen"
