Recovering Love

Part 29

When we got home Frankie helped me up to my room and gently helped me get in bed.
"You need to rest" he said concerned
"Frankie what about what Carla said" I asked
"Don't let her get to you nay, we'll be fine"
"I don't know Frankie, the way she said it makes me think she's planning something"
"I told her I didn't want anything with her anymore" he said
"Don't forget you also have a daughter with her and she isn't the one to blame"
"And I promise I'll try to be the best dad"
I smiled but I still felt something bad was going to happen.
Frankie hugged me very tightly and I could feel him staring at something which made him freeze for a bit.
My heart sank at what he was looking at and all I wanted was to disappear. I felt so horrible.
He looked at me with tears in his eyes and I couldn't bear look at him.
"Let me see your wrists" he said in the most soft voice ever
"Frankie I can't anymore, it's been so hard" I said words not being able to come out
"Why nay, why do this to yourself?"
Tears streamed down his face, this time I could actually see him hurting.
He got the blades that were under my pillow and my jaw dropped at what he did.
He started slashing his wrists and I couldnt stop him.
"Frankie no, stop you can't do this" I screamed while crying
"This is what you do to me when you cut yourself" he whispered
Blood started trickling down his arm. I got up to get something for his arm but he grabbed my arm.
"Don't, you're still not fine" he said
"You're not fine either Frankie, let me help you or I swear to god I'll cut myself again so I don't see you hurting"
I wasn't actually going to cut, I just wanted to help him.
I probably sounded like a bitch when I said that.
"You cut once more and I'll kill myself" Frankie protested
He was serious by the look in his face. So many mixed emotions were going on between us two all I did was give him a hug, the ones he gives me and make me feel 100x better. The hug lasted a couple minutes and it honestly felt good.

Frankie's POV:
Yesterday wasn't as good as I thought it would be. My wrists were still bleeding a bit and it wasn't until today that I felt the pain. Now I know how it feels to cut when you're sad, it's a great feeling.
I was very upset how Nayely never told me anything and I was the one to blame, I've hurt her and even broken her and I couldn't stand seeing her this sad. Loosing her is just something I wouldn't be able to handle.
I was getting ready to head out to nay's house but I was surprised by Carla.
"So I just got out of the hospital and thought it would be nice to spend some family time with our baby girl" she said
"Actually I was about to leave so make yourself at home I'll be back later" I said walking out the door
"No Frankie you stay or else I will tell your mom you decided not to care for yulema" she warned
"Carla why do you put her in this, she's my daughter and I'll take care of her"
Yulema started crying. I'm pretty sure she got scared from all the yelling.
"See what you've done Frankie, it's fine baby girl" she said
"Hand her over" I said
She put her in my arms and I could see how much she looked like me.
We were surprised by my mom which I was pretty happy to see because I wanted to get out of here.
"Aw you brought yulema" mom said
"Yeah but Frankie doesn't seem happy about it" Carla said
"Carla don't say that, I'm happy to see her" I said
"Frankie be nice" mom said
"I'm done, I'll be back later" I said handing yulema over to my mom
