Chapters of my life

Healing

Two days after the party I organised with Aiden to meet me at a local cafe to speak. The cafe was small and quiet, but I knew when I saw him that it was going to be for long. His modelling career had skyrocketed after I offered him a shoot at Gucci. He entered with 5 bodyguards and we were moved into the small garden out the back. To my surprise he was nice and welcoming to me. We mainly talked about his career. After 10 minutes of talking about him I finally got to squeeze in my question, "how did you handle me when I was grieving?". He looked at me strange for a minute before responding with I took down all the photos of Chad, removed most of his clothes and let you heal at your own rate. Then he asked why I had brought that up. I explained that a couple weeks before Alexander's party Luke was in an accident with a drunk driver and had passed away. Leo hasn't slept for weeks now and he is struggling to eat. He gave me the strange look ever. He gave me a death stare. I asked why and he said that when I was grieving you wouldn't sleep or eat and struggled to get to work let alone live your live. Then he gave me a big hug. It shocked me at first but then I hugged back. We talked about how he had moved to Florida and is earning a lot for his modelling. In a few weeks he would be modelling for Lui Vuitton and would say he started off at my agency creating more work for me and my business. It was around 1 pm when I left and went back to work. Alexander was asleep under my desk while I filed paperwork. Leo arrived in my office with a smile on his face. He took me in his arms and kissed my forehead. He explained how he was going ahead with the shoot he and Luke were meant to do. I handed his papers to fill out and then he hugged me until my ribs hurt. We all left after I handed in the papers. I drove home while Leo and Alexander were asleep in the back of the car. I carried Alexander inside, but I had to wake Leo up and walk him in. He had finally fallen asleep in bed after 2 weeks of not sleeping. The candles were lit, and I collapsed onto the couch with Orange is the new black on the TV. I fell asleep to idea of letting him heal at his own rate.
