Episode 21: It's All Gone

[ 2 days later ]

I tied Angie's hair into a small bun, pulling out a few of her beautiful curls. Giving me a toothy grin, she placed her tiara on her head before skipping out into the garden.

Its been 2 days since Gabriel walked out on me and I could feel a part of me die along with it. I haven't seen him since that day and I was feeling restless at the thought of him aimlessly roaming the streets.

I was surprised that his mom wasn't feeling the slightest bit nervous.
" I'm going out!" I hollared across the living room to let Mrs Harris know.

" Are you planning on looking for him Alex? Trust me, he disappears all the time, but he'll come back when he's ready." I gave her a curt nod before closing the door behind me.

After my fight with Gabriel, I felt it was only right to tell his family the truth about Angie, it was the least I could do. Unlike Gabriel, they accepted it wholeheartedly.

But none of their words could comfort me or make me feel any stronger, only Gabriel could do that. Knowing that he's disappointed in me, makes me feel like I'm completely useless -- as though I haven't been my best.

The past few years have been tough on me, but I can only blame myself for not expressing my feelings to Gabriel . I still remembered the first time I bumped into Gabriel where he begin his outburst, he was such a spitfire that caught my attention immediately. I knew very well that I shouldn't get him tangled into my life because it would only end up the way it is right now.

I was torn between loving him or keeping him alive so definitely I chose the latter. Angie became my whole life after I got her at the age of 18 years old. Without my own family or my wife that left me at the first sight of our child, I was left to raise Angie single-handedly.

However, I never regretted keeping Angie as my own.

I headed over to the hut which used to be just my spot, but now...it's Gabriel's and my spot. A small smile found a way to my lips at the thought of it. Curving my way through the forest, I was stunned to find the door of the hut open. Maybe Gabriel was in there?

Jesus! Why didn't I think of that sooner?

Dashing into the house, my eyes scanned each corner -- not a single soul was here. My legs froze when I saw one of the room doors open --- it was meant to be locked unless opened by the key.
