CHAPTER 58
#Bella’s P. O. V
I ate two tubs of ice cream but that didn’t take away the pain. The emptiness I felt inside.
I grabbed the phone and called the receptionist.”I want another tub of vanilla ice cream”I instruct her as I finish my last tub.
KNOCK!
KNOCK!
‘That was fast.’ I thought as I wipe away my tears and fix myself up. I walk to the door and open it only to see the last person I want to see.
Nicoli.
“Thank God I found you”He hugs me. I didn’t return the hug. I didn’t do or say anything
Now how the hell did he find me?
“Lets go home”He grabs me by my hand and pulls me out of the room. I stay quite and say nothing.
Nicoli helps me into the car and we drive home in a graveyard silence. The whole ride home I could feel him sneak glances at me but I stayed quite.
The moment we arrive home I quickly open the car door and run to the bathroom. I strip off all my clothes and turn on the shower. I sit on the shower floor and let the water fall over me mixing with my tears.
After I’m done taking my shower I put on my pyjamas and went to sleep without properly drying my hair.
Something warm is placed around my head so I open my eyes and look at Nicoli.
“You’ll catch a cold”He smiles and I felt like his smile is just killing me the more.
“Don’t touch!”I yell moving away from him.
Nicoli looked hurt but that was nothing compared to the pain I feel
“What’s wrong Malishka?”He asks trying to touch me again but I move away from him.
“What’s wrong? do you even have to ask that?… Everything is wrong”I yell pointing around the place like a mad person.
“Why are you acting like this”He asks, pain in his voice.
“Because I can’t do this anymore, I’m tired of all this” I yell at him , tears falling.
“And because you’re a monster that can’t love or be loved”I added.
The look on Nicoli’s face was one of pure utter pain, he looked hurt and broken like my words were a dagger to the heart. The emotions in his eyes were so many I couldn’t even decide what he’s feeling
He didn’t say anything after that and I was tempted to apologise to him but I didn’t. I watched as he walked to the door and closed it loudly
I fell on the floor tears falling down.
“Honey what happened?”Sarah runs into the room and helps me up.
“Nicoli just left the house. What happened?”She asks helping me sit on the bed.
“We had a fight”I explain wipping away my tears.
“And I told him that he’s a monster that can’t love or be loved”I added and the look on Sarah’s face was worst than Nicoli’s
“I messed up right?”I ask with a worried look.
“More than you think”Sarah says and takes a deep breath.
“When I met Nicoli’s father I instantly fell in love with him he was a charming and loving gentleman.”She smiles
“I truly loved Alberto but what he felt for me was lust when I gave birth to Nicoli that lust died and he changed. He became abusive and would hit me as well as Nicoli”She says a tear rolling down her cheek.
“Each time Nicoli asked him why he beat him up Alberto always said because Nicoli was a monster and that he couldn’t love him and that Nicoli couldn’t love anyone else”She says turning around looking at me.
“Those words haunted Nicoli as a child.”She says and I could feel my throat tighten
“My son loves you Isabella and I’m sure that hearing those words from you just broke him totally”She says.
“He’ll never forgive me” I cry. I’m still in pain because he cheated on me but that doesn’t mean I don’t love him.
“That’s where you’re wrong. Nicoli is crazy about you he’ll forgive anything you do”She smiles and kisses my forehead.
“Get some sleep”She says and I nod my head.
“Bella”Someone shakes me.
“Bella , Nicoli is back”The moment I hear those words I instantly wake up.
“Where is he?”I ask in hesitation looking at Sarah.
“Downstairs but…..” I run out of the room as fast as i can and run downstairs.
What I see is something I’m not ready for.
Nicoli is a mess , his hair is ruined he has lipstick stains on his shirt and his absolutely drunk.
“Hello beautiful. My face or your”He stumbles towards me and I had to bite my lip so I wouldn’t laugh at his attempt at a pick up line.
“Nicoli you’re drunk”I state trying not to laugh.
“I had a drink or two”He says nearly falling.
“Ken help me”I tell him and Ken helps me carry Nicoli.
“Help me go to our room”I ask him and we start carrying Nicoli to our room.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
We place Nicoli on the bed and I thank Ken. I take Nicoli’s shoes off and unfasten his shirt leaving him in his dress trousers.
“Are you gonna rape me?”Nicoli asks looking up at me.
“No I’m not”I laugh trying to help him get on the bed. Nicoli grabs my waist and turns us over so he’s hovering over me.
“It wouldn’t be rape”He grins.
“No but I have a husband”I show him my ring.
“He wouldn’t know”Nicoli says and I shake my head.
“Get off of me Nico”I order causing him to pout but he gets off me.
“Sleep”I order. Nicoli grabs my waist and pulls me towards him. Making us cuddle.
“Good night”He mumbles falling asleep.
“Good night”
Tomorrow is gonna be a long day.
I hope we start talking again.
