43:Pressed feelings

Tristan

1 week later

The room was dark as I opened my eyes to the sound of my alarm going off I was laying in bed turning over to turn the alarm off I noticed Candy's side of the bed was empty once again.

Looking at the clock sitting on the night stand next to me it was four in the morning. I sighed getting up and turned on the light

I seen my uniform was on a hanger on the closet door already ironed grabbing I started getting dressed.

After that I made my way out of the room and into the hallway I peeked inside Chanel, Cody and Kiara rooms they were sleep or atleast appeared to be then I walked by Princess room.

I stopped and walked inside her crib was empty also she had to be with Candy ever since we came back home her and princess are always together.

I walked out of the room and made my way downstairs there was a light on in the hall.

Going down the hall I seen it was my work out room light was on I walked inside to see Candy on the etlcptocal  wearing work out clothes with Princess  sleeping in a baby carrier strapped to her chest.

Every time I look at her on there I can tell she's running from something but she won't go into detail about what all happened to her at the clinic.

"Candy."I called out

Her eyes were facing straight ahead

"Candy."I called out again

Her eyes were still facing straight ahead.

I would've called her louder but I didn't want to wake Princess up since she'll cry for a whole hour before going back to sleep.

So instead I went over to the light switch and flicked the lights on and off for a few seconds which finally got Candy's attention.

She looked over at me and took her air pods out of her ears

I hate those fucking things.

"You finna go to work?" she asked.

"No I just like to put on my uniform for fun."I joked.

"Mhmm."

"Hey did you come to bed last night?" I asked.

Candy shook her head.

"I'm not tired and Princess woke up and didn't want to wake you or the kids so I just brought her down here with me." She told me.

I looked at her.

"I think you should put Princess in her crib and you should get some rest."

I said as she got off the etlcptocal.

"Ok I'll put Princess down but I'm not tired."she told me.

I turned out the light as we walked out of the room.

We made our back up stairs to Princess room.

I watched as Candy held her close before putting her into the crib.

Just watching brought back some old memories I haven't thought about in awhile.

15 years ago

Candy and I were at our old house standing in a pink bedroom the wall had Miracle in bold light pink letters.

We were staring at an empty crib.

"I still can't believe she's gone...,"
Candy cried.

"Me either but I think we should..."

Candy looked at me

"We should what..." she questioned

"Move this stuff out of here or something I can't keep looking at this."

"Why not."

"Because she's gone Candy she's gone!"

"How can you say that!" She cried

"Because it's the truth!" I cried.

"Tristan are you ok... "Candy asked looking at me.

"Uh Yea I'm I'm fine." I told her

"Really why are your eyes watery like your about to cry?"

"Oh it's nothing just got something in my eye but I gotta get to work so go and get some rest.

I gave and Princess a quick kiss and then I made my way downstairs and out the door.

I don't know why out of all the things to think about that came up..

This is short and kinda fillerish I know

But what y'all think?

Is Candy hiding more stuff?

Is Tristan trying to hide his issues?
