"Liz, sweetie." Alice steps closer to Elizabeth as her body stayed frozen in the same position for an hour. "You've been quite for an hour now." Alice adds sitting her down on the bed, rubbing her back trying to be as comforting as she could.
"I have to go." Elizabeth whispered staring at the floor, tears welling up in her eyes.
"What?" Alice asks again, not catching what she previously said.
"I have to go." She repeated Frantically, getting up Elizabeth paces through the room in search of her luggage bag. "He'd be here any minute, I-I have to get out." She grows more frantic. Finally finding her luggage bag she starts pouring all her stuff back into the bag.
"Wait no, there's other solutions to this Elizabeth." Alice try's to stop her.
"Alice let me go." Elizabeth says continuing to pack.
"Liz this isn't the answer-"
"Let me go Alice." She raised her voice now looking at her, tears burning down her cheeks. They stayed silent looking at each other.
"Liz are you her-?" The door flys open and harry rushes in. "Thank god listen I can explai-"
Closing her bag Elizabeth grabs the remaining things that belong to her and headed out the door.
"Harry let her go." Alice said coldly sitting at her same position on the bed.
( three years later )
"Sweetie no." I pry Alice's teddy bear from her small hands. "Don't touch it or else Alice would get mad." Picking her up from the floor I set the teddy bear back on the couch. She starts crying and I coo trying to calm her. "It's okay baby I'll get you one, okay?" I hold her so she could look at me. Her hands in her mouth she sniffs no longer crying, her eyes on me I smile and she smiles. "That's a good girl baby." My free hand tickles her tummy making her lightly giggle. "Come on let's get you some food." I tell her making my way to the fridge as she answers with baby noises. "As if you can understand me." I laugh to my self. "But that's okay right Stella, because you love me." I look at her kissing her cheeks making her giggle loudly.
"Aw, is that Stella I hear?" Hearing the front door close Alice soon appears in the kitchen behind the fridge door where Stella was poking out. "Hi." She greets Stella scratching her belly and Stella replied in baby noises. "Aww" Alice awes kissing her forehead.
"Okay Stella do you feel like a apple and banana kid of girl today or carrots and broccoli?" I ask showing her both.
"Ew give her the apple and banana." Alice answers for Stella reaching for a wine glass pouring some red wine in it. "Spear the girl." Listening I grabbed that on and handed Stella to Alice letting me grab a spoon.
"Just for today." I add opening the baby food container. "Stella needs her vegetables, right pumpkin?" I scoop some on the spoon and lay some on her top lip so she could get a taste of it.
She makes baby noises.
"No mommy." Alice impersonates Stella leaning over so Stella could eat from the spoon better. I get out a chuckle.
"Thank you Alice for everything." I look at her continuing to feed Stella. "I'm not very good at this."
"Shut up already," she joked. "It's your first time, you aren't the best but as a first time mom your doing great." She sips her wine and I bib Stella mouth. I smile.
