Sirens (Cheryl fanfic)

Chapter 41

Max's P.O.V.

I can't sleep, I can't eat, I didn't took my meds. I gather some clothes in the closet putting anything I can put a hand on and stuffed it in my bag. I decided to not stay here for the meantime while mam hasn't remember me yet. I don't know where I'm going but only one thing is on my mind.

The orphanage.

I could stay there for the night while in the morning I'll go to mam. I hate my situation today. My mother doesn't remember me. I should understand this because its not her fault really but I can't help to be hurt everytime she pushes me away.

Mum's already here in London and she's with mam. She called the house phone earlier to check up on me. She said mam and her are together still. And I'm glad for that cause mam told me she already has feelings for mum even before she found me.

Minutes later, I've finished packing. I walked in to the ensuite and open the medicine cabinet. I took my inhaler and my meds caught my eye. I took the three containers and stared at them.

"Its no use." I whispered and just threw them all in the trash can. I sighed and walked out of the ensuite putting my inhaler in my pocket and grabbed my suitcase. I walked out of my room and made my way downstairs. I took one last glance at the house before walking out of the door.

Katy's P.O.V.

"Babe, can you pass us the milk?" Cheryl said and I did what she told me. I'm not in the right state now. Its like Cheryl has changed. She's went from a good and loving mother to denying that she has a daughter. I can imagine Max's state now. She must be broken.

"Baby, you know that mental girl I'm talking to you abou-"

"She's not mental Cheryl. She's your daughter."

"How many times will I tell all of you that I don't have a f*cking daughter." She said loudly and at the same time I noticed the door creaked open but it stayed there. I got curious so I stood up from the bed and walk over to the door. Opening it a bit wide to see who it was and my eyes widen at the sight of a distraught looking Max.

"Uhm...H-Hi" Her voice is barely a whisper. She looks so messed up. Puffy eyes and bags under it. Pale lips and pale skin.

"Katy, who's that. Is that the mental girl." I heard Cheryl said and saw Max flinched at her harsh words. I pulled Max into a hug slightly pushing her so I can step out and close the door behind me. I pulled away and took her hand guiding her towards the bench so we can sit and talk.

"Max..."

"I'm fine.." She whispers and looked at me giving me a weak smile. I was getting worried at her.

"Have you had breakfast already?"

"I wasn't hungry."

"Did you take your meds."

"Yea" She breathe. I pulled her into my arms and she immediately relaxed. I held her tight putting kisses on top of her head. I was trying to make her feel better.

"I'm sorry about earlier. What your mom said.I know she didn't mean that." She sighed as she started playing with my fingers.

"Its okay mum...I'll admit it hurts..a lot. But I'll take it. I'll take whatever she says about me if that what makes her happy...C-cause at the end of the day, she's still my mother and I came from her. And I will stay by her side even though she's already pushing me away. I-I made a promise that whatever happens,I will always love her until the day I die." I swallow the lump forming in my throat. She's broken.

"Uhm.. Babe, let's grab something to eat." I said trying to change the subject. But she pulled away and shook her head with a weak smile on her face.
