𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑼𝒏𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑮𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕 /𝑻𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝑨-𝑨

It was past midnight and it was raining , I was in the car with my girlfriend Rachel and I was driving.
We could barely see the road because of the heavy rain , all I could hear was cars passing by and her shouting at me.
I wanted her to shut up , I've had enough of hearing her shouting at me and accusing me.
If anyone was in my case they would've broke up , but I couldn't because I loved her.
" You always act like I never exist and i'm tired" She shouted
It's not true , i'm probably busy because of my career but I always spent my free time with her...
" No , you already know that I love you and I always take you out when I can" I replied
" What about your other girlfriends?"
I hate when she says that , she knows damn well that she's the only girl in my life. Being a footballer doesn't make me a fuckboy.
She may be  toxic,but I can't lie about my feelings toward her . Some of my teammates said that she's just dating me for my fame and money , but I never cared about their opinions .
Rachel started shouting louder and I couldn't focus on the road while driving , I kept denying the lies she was telling me .
Suddenly , the car slipped and it hit another car and all I could remember was nothing.

I woke up and I noticed that I was sweating , It was a nightmare.
Even if this tragic accident happened 8 months ago , I still dream about it every night . Rachel's death keeps haunting me.
People come and go and everything happens for a reason , that's what I kept telling myself for the past 8 months to forget what happened, but it's so easy to talk than to make it happen.
I know that it was my fault , maybe if I spent more time with her she would be happier?
When i'm training with the boys they make me forget about everything but once I come back home It starts haunting me all over again .
My imagination makes me see Rachel's face everywhere , magazines , instagram posts  , adds and more. I went through therapy , but it didn't help me.

I went to the bathroom to take a shower , then I grabbed my things and I went to Melwood.
When I arrived there , I noticed that my teammates' cars where already parked.
I went on the pitch and I saw the boys there.
"Hey" I said
"How are you feeling today?" asked Virgil
Virgil is like my father , he was always here when I needed him. He helped me a lot and I don't know how I should thank him.
After the training , we went back inside.
"Trent , have you managed to forget about Rachel?" asked Andy
There's nothing I hate more than when someone brings this subject , but it wasn't his fault because he was only trying to make me feel better.
" Don't talk about this please , i'm trying to forget about everything" I replied in the nicest way possible to not make him feel bad.
" I'm sorry" He said
Joe arrived with the other boys and they where all smiling , i'm sure that they're hiding something.
" Are you still coming to my place tonight?" asked Joe
"Why?" I asked
" Come on bro , did you forget about the party?"
"Ohhh , of course I didn't . I'm coming for sure"
Honestly , I forgot about it and I didn't want to go.
After the tragic accident and Rachel's death , I stopped going to parties and hanging out with my friends. I wanted to stay at home today but I had to attend Joe's party , sometimes we organize things like this to have fun.
I went back to my house , it was empty as always .
I sat in my living room and I turned the TV on , I didn't realize how but I fell asleep a couple minutes later.
My phone's ringtone woke me up , It was Joe.
" Trent aren't you coming?" He asked
" What time is it?" I asked half asleep
" It's 8PM ,come on bro everyone is here and we're waiting for you"
