Grant POV

I walk inside, to see my mother and James staring at me with wide eyes. I'm confused as hell as to why.

Then, my mother speaks up, "are you okay?"

I think about what she asked.

Am I okay?

I'm fucking great right now to be completely honest. Don't eat me wrong, I loved... okay I would be lying if I said I still loved my father. I didn't. I haven't loved my father since I turned 8; when he decided to destroy my dreams.

I feel lighter... like I have every right to just throw myself out of a window and I'll fly.

I feel free...

I sigh and take a seat next to James. I look at him and I feel nothing but love for him.

"I'm okay mom, but are you okay?", I ask.

"I guess I'm fine. I mean, I feel kind of empty. Not sad or anything... just empty."

I grit my teeth, "You only feel empty because of him. He made you what he wanted you to me; just a wife. Nothing more. Now you can do whatever you please Ma".

She smiles and looks away.

I turn my attention back to James who's just staring at his hands.

I slowly take hold of his hands and bring them to my lips.

He looks at me skeptically and I kiss his hands lightly.

"I love you James".

He smiles and nods his head...

But he didn't say it back...

Why didn't he say it back?

I sigh and turn my attention back to my mother, "we have to go now, we'll be back to check up on you soon. I love you Ma", I kiss her head and lead James towards the door.

"Be careful son, I can't lose you too."

I nod and open the door to my new freedom, with James beside me.
