Jessica could tell she hit a nerve, Garret's once tall strong confident domineer shriveled up, now he looked like sad little puppy. Then she understood she probably did, not only had Garret lost all his friends and Family but the smallest string of trust anyone could ever have for him would be gone once they found out his disturbing past, and that was just sad. For 8 years he had nobody and now as a free man he still had nobody.
He quietly whispered with a faint smile," thanks for saying what everyone is afraid to say....People act like everything is normal around me that the past 8 years didn't happen smiling like a Buffoon trying to make it seem that everything will go back to how it was before then but deep down they are terrified with sweetly palms and trembling legs...."
He slowly started heading for the door. Without a second thought I shouted.
"Garret wait!"
Garret stopped in the middle of the room and turned to face Jessica who looked a little bit worried of what would happen next.
"Why shouldn't I leave Jessica why it's obvious you hate me it's obvious your don't like me I scare you don't I. Everybody does my mom my dad my freakin brother and sisters and heck they don't even remember me AND even You jessica, my freakin childhood friend who I used to hang out with all the time, can't get past what I did ! Well I'm sorry I can't change what happened and I didn't have any other choice!"

Broken Connection✔️
(completed) When Evelyn Cruz, the youngest of the Cruz siblings, comes full circle back to an old family friend, she instantly is flooded with old memories. The Valor's have come back with business. That's all they truly cared for. The eldest son of the Valor's, Grayson, had made a promise to the Cruz siblings to never leave. That promise was broken 5 years ago. Though, the one most affected was Evelyn. He had solely set the promise from her words. He promised to not leave and cause her to become the taker of the family business she never wanted. Will she be able to forgive him? Or will they both have to live with a lost connection beyond repair? ~~~~~~~~~ I'm trying my best to not listen to his voice booming behind me. Following me. "Evelyn, please!" Grayson's footsteps are getting closer to my trail and I can't help but speed up. But no matter how hard I tried to get away from him, he caught up to me. "Evelyn-" Grayson's arm wraps around my arm and I'm tugged back, flipping around to face him. "What the fuck do you want Grayson?" My harsh voice echos in the empty, open hallway. "God, I dont know what you want me to do. I have tried everything to get you to forgive me." He takes a sharp breath when I pull a knife out of my pocket and hold it to his stomach. "You really want to know why I haven't forgiven you?" He stares down at me blankly and gives a short nod. "Because you took the one thing I hoped you would care for." I press the knife ever so slightly more into his skin, causing only a small reaction from Grayson. His jaw clenches before he speaks. "And that is?" I shake my head at how stupid he is. You would think the taker of the Valor family business would be smarter. But no. I use my free arm to grab his tie and tug on it, leaning him down. He was so close to me. I could feel his warm breath against my lips. We were only inches away. "My trust Grayson."Complete
