From ‚hate you' to ,love you'

Chapter 37

Karen's POV:

I heard the doorbell ring, so I whipped away my tears and got up from the couch to open it. Blair and her mom were standing in front of me, with cake in there hands.
,,Come in come in'' I said putting on a fake smile. I walked them towards the living room and we all sat down.
,,Were are the kids Karen?'' Blair's mom asked me.
,,May is outside and Zach ehm yea he went to a friends for a..'' I wanted to say, but got cut off by her:,,Karen come on you don't have to lie to me. You showed him the letter right?'' she said and Blair looked shocked.
,,mom you know about the letter?'' she asked her mom and she responded with a ,,yes''.
I started to cry again and they both hugged me.
,,Hey it's ok he just needs some time alone'' Blair's mom said.
,,He might hate me now.'' I said and Blair interrupted:,,No he doesn't and he never will. He's just confused right now and that's ok.''
,,Come on let's go to the kitchen and make dinner.'' Blair said and we all stood up to make dinner. Me and Blair cooked the meat and Blair's mom set the table.
,,So, did you read your letter yet?'' I asked Blair.
,,No, I want to wait. I think it's not fair to Zach that I know before he does, so I'll wait.'' she said and I nodded. She really does care for him.

Blair's POV:

While eating dinner, Zach still didn't answer my calls or my text messages. I excused myself and tried once again. He declined.
,,Hey mom can I have your car? I wanna search for Zach, he has been gone for awhile now'' I asked my mom and she agreed. Zach's mom wanted to search for him, but I told her I will talk to him first and she agreed. Without finishing my food I took the car keys and drove to the cemetery, but he wasn't there. I knew were he was. Everytime he is sad and doesn't want to be found he goes to the bench, where you can see the bridge. I pulled over and locked the car. I walked towards the bench, seeing Zach sitting there. I sat down next to him, but his eyes only focused on the bridge. I didn't say anything, I just pulled him into a hug and let him rest his head on my shoulder, rubbing his back. He hugged back and sniffed a little.
,,Babe you okay?'' I asked him.
,,Not really. She hid the letter from me. Why did she do that?'' He asked me confused looking up to face me.
,,Maybe she only wanted to protect you.''
,,Ugh maybe you're right. I mean I can't you know hate her.'' he said and I agreed.
,,Have you read it yet?'' I asked him after a little of silence.
,,No I didn't....I-I couldn't.'' - He said.
,,It's ok you don't need to now, but the answers are inside of the letter. Don't you wanna read it?'' I asked him and he went silent for awhile.
,,I think I'm ready.'' He said nodding his head in agreement.
,,Should I let you alone? You know read it by yourself?'' I asked him,but he shook his head ,,no''.
,,I want you to stay next to me.'' He said and opened the letter....
