Chapter 66

Chapter song: Love Song Requiem by Trading Yesterday

I die each time you look away.
My heart, my life..will never be the same.
This love will take my everything.

Nana gently took my hand and led me to a secluded door down the hall near Henry's room which I have never noticed before.

Nana motioned to me. "You need to go inside before you make a decision."

"No, I don't want to."

"Please, do it for me," she pleaded.

Something in her eyes disclose me I needed to see what was kept inside, and I was anxious of it. I sighed. "Okay, Nana, for you, I will."

My hand cautiously twisted the doorknob as my breath hitched in my throat.

I flipped on the light switch with my jittery fingers and as the room came in view, my heart broke into a million pieces.

I slowly entered the room and my eyes scanned diligently over the things that Henry kept hidden in here away from me.

By the wall stood a beautiful mahogany crib with a beautiful animal bed set. I paced over to it and my fingers glided on the cool wooden surface.

On one side of the crib was a big mahogany drawer and when I opened it, there were many baby onesies and blankets arranged neatly inside.

A big comfortable white La-Z-Boy rocker glider stood by on the other side of the crib next to the window.

Various toys lined the shift that hung from the wall along--a blue bunny, a white bear, a pink fluffy unicorn, and more.

My eyes landed on the picture, the one that Violet drew at the shelter and gave to me as a gift.

How did it get here?

The pain returned. The same pain I felt that very day. I remembered lying on the ground and reaching for it after the episode.

After all this time, it was here in this room, hanging from the wall in a new unbroken photo frame.

I placed hand over my mouth to keep my from whimpering and turned my attention away to subdued the bad memories.

On the counter of the drawer laid the scrapbook that I was working on throughout my pregnancy. I left it behind at Nancy's and Henry just have gone back to retrieve it.

This was my nursery room.

Henry had it created it for me? Why didn't he ever tell me? Why didn't he say anything? Not even a word? Why would he keep it hidden from me all this time?

I stepped back to look at the view again. Unable to contain the tears pouring from deep inside my soul, I covered my mouth with both my hands.

My legs finally bailed out on me and I dropped onto my knees, all my energy I had left disappeared from my body.

I hunched over to the ground as I sobbed uncontrollably over and over.

I broke down. I wept. I bawled.

When I thought the misery had ended, I was mistaken.

When I thought the storm was over and a rainbow would emerged, it didn't.

"Ally!" Adam rushed over, bending onto his knees, and embraced me on the ground. "Why must it be this guy, Ally? Why must you love the person who always hurt you the most?"
