What A Journey

Chapter two

Sang's POV

Something disturbs me from my sleep. A bang bang bang. What is that. Dragging my half asleep body from my bed, I open my bedroom door. Someone knocking. On the front door, at 3 am. Who, as I think this I see Ace open their bedroom door.

I shake my head at him and whisper to him "no close your door and get back into bed. Stay there." He nods and does as I say.

I have my phone in hand just incase.

"SANG" someone shouts. Oh great I knew I should off answered my phone earlier.

The shouts continue "COME ON SANG. OPENING THE FUCKING DOOR."

I walk to the door and say back "no go away James. I told you, we're finished done. Now walk away before I call the cops".

"Come on Sang. I love you. Dont throw away what we have" he says back.

"Oh come on James. You don't sleep with someone else if your in love with another. There's nothing to throw away. Your the one that ruined it. Now leave you've woken up Ace and Poppy. Dont make me make that call." I tell him.

I hear a thud and assume it's his forehead hitting the door. "Fine but I'll be back. I made a mistake, I'm not giving up on us." He says, to which I roll my eyes at. Then I hear him walk away.

I walk back towards the bedrooms and pop my head in the kids room and smile. "Hey guys it's ok now. He's gone sorry he woke you" I tell them.

Ace is sat on his bed arms crossed "what did he want."

"I dont know and I didn't ask either. Just sent him away." I tell him.

He nod his approval. I just shake my head and try not to roll my eyes. I'm glad my 5 year old approves of my choices.

"Right back to sleep busy day tomorrow. Sweet dream."

They both say good night and lay back down. I close the door and walk back to my room.

I just wish life was easier sometimes. Like when James decided to sleep with someone else. What did he expect me to do when I found out just hug him and say it's ok baby I still love you. Like fuck.

I just wish sometimes that I was enough for people. That I was just loveable enough for people to stay. I know my children love me and I wouldn't change them for the world. But adults yeah they suck.

Plus Now James cant or won't  leave me alone. I drop down onto my bed hoping I can get back to sleep. But when I do sleep nightmares or my past are ready to greet me.

..
6 years ago.

Were all sitting on the sofa, getting comfortable for our family meeting.

Mr.Blackbourne clears his throat and starts "gentleman, Miss.Sorenson. I've been approached with another mission now that Ashley waters is finished."

I was glad that school was heading towards a better future, now that Mr.McCoy and Mr.Hendricks was out. At least the school would have the correct funds and be able to have the right equipment.

Mr.Blackbourne continued "for this one we need to travel. This time to a college. The academy thinks as we've already helped a school we would have better luck helping the college than other teams."

Kota asks "wheres the college".

"George Town." He tells us.

"And were all going. Even Sang Baby" North asks.

I hadn't even thought of me going. I'm not part of the academy yet. I've not started my training.

The look on Mr.Blackbourne face tell me straight away that I'm not joining them on this mission.

"No. No fucking way are we leaving trouble behind fuck that shit." Gabriel shouts out.

I go to say it's fine but everyone else has some thing to say.

Mr.Blackbourne holds up his arm and begins to say "with this mission we wont owe anyone favours. You can all graduate. I know you dont want to leave Miss.Sorenson behind but we can come back at weekends and talk all the time"

"Where is she going to stay. Not here without us near by incase my dad comes back." Nathan asks.

"Good point. What about with uncle" Kota asks.

North says "it doesnt matter I'm not going. I'm not leaving Sang baby behind".

I walk over to North and tell him "it's fine for you to go North star. I'll stay with uncle and I'll be ok. You need to do this. I'll still see you every week". I lean in to kiss his cheek.

..
I jolt awake. The memory still so fresh and then I remember how it all changed. I feel the tears flowing down my face. I wish I'd known then that they would stop coming to visit and stop calling. I wish I'd had the chance to tell them about the twins. I had left a note but I never heard from any of them. I had thought about getting in contact with them somehow over the years, but then I didn't think my heart could take being rejected by them again

I glance at the clock to see it's only 5am. I lay back down and stare out the window. What a long day this is going to be.
