It's night time and I am exhausted! After packing my stuff we went to the doctor's office for some checkups & and tests, were told we would be receiving them within an hour!
I guess he was serious when he said he wanted to be certain that both parties were clean, air quotes, his words not mine. But then again truth be told, he knows he is clean it's me he needs proof off. It hurts, that he might think so low of me but it shouldn't he doesn't know me.
I was waiting when he came telling me they were going to send us the results soon so we should go eat dinner in the meantime.
"A penny for your thoughts" I was brought out of my thinking by his deep voice.
"I was just thinking over all the things that happened since you made an appearance in my life" I answered with a soft smile.
"Hopefully good things" He stated curtly not looking at me but busing himself with his food.
"Hopefully" slipped softly off my lips as both of us were lost in our thoughts.
The vibration of his phone on the table got us both out our silence.
"It's the doctor's office" he said as he read the text. For a second I thought I saw his eyes open widely but then a mask came over his features.
"Is everything okay" by now my heart was beating wildly in my chest.
"Yes, yes, all is good we both are clean" he said tightly and excused himself.
What was that all about?
After about ten minutes he came back very polite and courteous.
"Sorry for leaving you" he apologized yet never elaborated on where he had gone?
***************************
I moved in with Theo. My clothes were in his closet, true mine didn't take any space at all as his walk in closet was much bigger than my apartment! But at least now I was somewhat settled in. Seeing my stuff no matter how less in number they were gave a sense of me in here. Gone was the whole male dominated aura of his bedroom or bathroom.
I remembered how everyone in his household was shocked when they saw him bring my suitcases into the house with me trailing behind him like a lost puppy not making any eye contact but I could feel the looks and whisperings all around me.
Somehow I got the feeling that Theo was not the kind of man who brought his women home. Come to think of it I don't know anything about him, Nothing at all. And yet here I am putting myself in such a vulnerable state but I just got to suck it up and see where it goes.
He showed me to his bedroom and told me to feel free in using anything I wanted. As now both of us will be sharing everything, I guess.
"Hey you done?" He knocked on the door making me turn around.
"Yea, why?" I asked suddenly realizing what was to come ahead and that got me all tensed up.
He felt it, the air between us was getting thicker and thicker.
"Sophia, it's 2 in the morning and you have been sitting in my closet for the last hour doing nothing, so I was wondering aren't you coming to bed?" He asked hesitantly. I looked at him with wide eyes trying to calm myself down wanting to say something, anything but no words escaped my mouth.
"I have an early meeting tomorrow and I need to sleep" just that simple sentence was enough to make me relax and all tensed up muscles breathe again. For in this simple statement he was confirming that nothing would happen tonight and I was safe to sleep with him.
"Yes coming" I stood and went to the bed wearing my spongebob pjs and hid under the covers. He switched off the lights in the closet and followed me.
"Are you comfortable if I slept with you?" He asked tentatively. Removing the covers from my head
"Of course I am" I said in a small voice with tears starting to form in my eyes.
God I thought this was going to be easier
"Hey, hey it's okay. I'll take the guest room for tonight. The last thing I need you to be is ... uncomfortable" he whispered softly as he was stroking my hair gently.
This act of kindness, this act of generosity was my breaking point, bringing with it all the horrors of my past, all the loneliness, all the anger, frustration, guilt and the most prominent emotion ever, The Shame...
Deep gut wrenching sobs started to escape my body and all I could comprehend was him hugging me tightly and rocking me gently afraid of breaking me any further.
"Shh, shh..., να σταματήσει να κλαίει αγαπημένη , Είστε ασφαλείς εδώ , κανείς δεν θα σας πειράξει ποτέ ποτέ ξανά" he kept cooing soft Greek words that I didn't know what they meant but his gentle voice just broke the dam holding all my tears. He stayed there holding me close, rocking me back and forth, telling me to get it all out, don't hold back anything.
I kept crying for I don't know how long till I settled down into soft sniffles and occasional hiccups.
"When did it happen?" He asked me in a very restrained voice I could feel him trying his best to hold his anger in check.
"Seven months ago" my lips moved automatically immediately going back to that horrible night where my life was going to change forever.
"How many..." He couldn't even bring himself to finish his sentence his throat was constricted with emotion. "Six" again the word slipping out monotonously. His arms around me became tighter and I was starting to have difficulty in breathing, he was hurting me but I didn't have it in me to stop him.
"I can't give you any details" I added so that he won't push me for any He must have felt me stiffen for he relaxed his arms and looked me in the eye.
"I don't think I can handle any" He answered truthfully.
Silence...
"This is why you are doing this? You think of yourself as damaged goods. You think that it's your fault, you think it's the only option left for you" He said unbelievingly, eyes wide open with shock as if suddenly he was hit with the revelation of the deepest secrets of earth.
"I don't think, I know" I declared angrily and moving myself out of his embrace.
"You have legally lost your mind if you think there is even an ounce of fault on your head!" He exclaimed fiercely as he shook my shoulders firmly yet gently.
"Theodore!" It was the first time I had ever said his first name aloud he kept watching me silently.
"You have no right to judge my past, or issue out pardons on my behalf. What happened, happened end of story.
Yes I was rapèd" His breathing quickened and a vein popped out in his neck. "Yes I was humiliated, yes I feel worthless" he was clenching the sheets so tightly his knuckles were white and his arms and shoulders were visably shaking but I kept going on. I was hurt I was angry and I just couldn't stop my outburst anymore,
gone was my promise to never disclose any details to him.
"And yes I want to do this because I can never go back to my previous life. And as for stating that I think I am damaged goods! No Mr. Andreadis, I don't think that, I know That.
Not only was my virginity and future stolen from me that night but the chance of ever having children as well. So you tell me, Mr. Andreadis, what part in this scenario doesn't depict damaged goods to you?" I seethed with anger, hurt, & acceptance of my cruel fate.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Please don't hate me, although I do hate myself for doing this *shuffling my feet on the ground* but it had do be done.
