Bojinia

chapter 3

Jenna stood up and went to open a locked drawer, she pulled a blue file, took it, then came to sit by my side.

"Do not question me until I tell you everything ok?" she asked

"I will try ". I said smiling.

"On One cold windy night my doorbell rang, it was a year after I got divorced from my husband." She fell silent and looked at her hands then she looked upwards to notice my surprised expression.

"Mmm, I didn't tell you about my ex before, I guess it's time", i always wondered if Jenna ever got married but i never asked her so i was really curious.

she took a deep breath and completed "I was married to someone for eight years, we loved each other so much but there was one problem we wanted kids, but we weren't lucky enough, so our life was a little bit messy, however, on the eighth year of marriage he started to return home very late sometimes and sometimes he didn't return at all.one day i asked him but he came up with lame excuses, we argued the worst argument of our lives; three days later I found out I was pregnant. I waited at home to surprise him with the news, i thought maybe things will get better after this news and maybe i can forgive and forget, I even prepared a very delightful dinner. but when he came; to my shock he wasn't alone he had a girl with him. he said "I want to introduce you to my fiancée"

"he had guts! I must give him that. He came to my house, our house, in front of me his wife. we fought that day of course, the worst Fight in my life. when things got bad his girl left the house for us to fight in with no audience"

she let out a chuckle and completed "I was emotionally destroyed and he did something for the first time. He hit me badly that i lost consciousness and I woke up at the hospital " Jenna's eyes were starting to tear up "Did you...?" I stammered then completed " the.." I couldn't form the question but she understood " the baby ? yes the baby died, he didn't know of course he was busy Beating me that I didn't get the chance to tell him about the baby.so he was devastated when he knew he was the reason for his child's death.he came begging my forgiveness, but I couldn't even look at him let alone forgive him" Jenna stopped to wipe her eyes then said " one week later I filed the divorce papers and a few weeks later we were divorced" she looked at me and smiled "And then you came into my life "

I looked at her beautiful face and waited for her to complete and she did "It was midnight and I heard my doorbell ringing, I ran downstairs, opened the door it was a chilly night. I was thinking I'd find a neighbor or something but I didn't, I found a little girl covered in many blankets , you were crying ,when I picked you up I looked around to at least catch a glimpse of the person who rang the bell but there was no one, once we entered the house you cried again until you slept, I then found a letter with you folded in between your blankets, here it is " she gave me the one and only paper in the blue file " read it " she said.

Dear Arya,

you must have questioned the reason why we left you. The only answer is that we had no other choice. We are different from other people and you most of all are special. In another place where you were born things got real ugly and you have become in danger and the only way to save you was to leave you on earth to grow up strong and confident, to live in peace. You have no idea how much we suffered  doing this but one day you will understand everything, but for now you need to know that you have the strength and the power to do much more than you think you can. Be fair, honest, kind and courageous, do not give your trust to anyone for free let people earn your trust , remember that trusting in the wrong person will lead you to the wrong place and that in silence comes control ,in willingness there's strength and in acts of goodness exist your greatest power. We are with you even if you don't know. One day we will be reunited and when that day comes we will explain everything.

                  Trust your heart and your better judgment

                                                                                Yours truly,

                                                                       Eos& Tatia Sevastianos

I played with the ring hanging on a chain around my neck while still holding the paper in my hand. Jenna found that ring hanging around my neck and i never took it off.

"I can see that I have, I mean had crazy parents!" I exclaimed. where could i have come from that is different from earth, MARS?!

I started walking around the room brushing my hands through my hair, every time I tried to form another sentence I couldn't, I looked at Jenna who looked sorry I didn't need her to be sorry "Don't look at me like that" she only blinked in response "Don't, do not pity me it's fine I got over it" my voice was trembling and I was shouting "I don't have any parents those people are maniacs, they won't find me. all the people who give away their children say the exact same words of course with the difference that mine are crazy and they believe they live away from earth, however people who give away their children do not come back" at this point I fell on the ground crying , why am i crying, it should not affect me that way. I've been living without them all my life why does the reminder of their existence hurt me so much, Jenna sat down, held me and started brushing my hair with her kind hands "I am sorry I shouted at you Jenna, thank god I have you, they do not matter Jenna. You are my family"

we stayed this way for a while when I finished crying I asked her one question that I never had the chance to ask anyone " Does it end , I mean do you still remember him? Do you still love him your ex? Does the pain of missing someone ever go away?"

She stayed silent for a while like she was processing the question then she replied "I still love him yes , I still miss him too" she took a breath then completed "so I think NO. it doesn't ever go away. You just get used to it "
