Divorcing My Cold Hearted Celebrity Husband.

Chapter 6: Chapter-6. (The Turmoil Inside).



"But grandpa.." I tried to negotiate but he stopped me as he placed his hand in front. I gulped down the remaining words as he shook his head, "Sorry, sweet pea but I cannot give you more time." 

I kept my silence and got down from his car. He tried to drop me to the apartment, but I denied his offer. I watched his car until his tail lights disappeared.

I kept walking down the road as the sun started to set leaving yellow and orange rays mixed with the dark hues. 

The scene was breathtaking. I took in a deep breath taking it all in.

My mind was confused, still processing all the things happened until now. 

My mind and heart were in a fight mode continuously weighing the pros and cons of accepting the offer. If I decline his offer, not only I will hurt grandpa's feeling I myself would not be able to stay relax but...

Saying yes would complicate my and Dave's relationship. Also, I might have to stay with him until he is fully healed and knowing myself well, I could confirm one thing.

There might be a slight chance...fine a full fledged chance that I would fall for him. Again.

I have barely survived the cheating thing and involving myslef with him knowing well that after regaining his memories, he will leave me. It would be the stupidiest and idiotic decision I coud have made this year. 

Still walking down the sideways, my gaze went around. I almost reached the apartment as this big park was just in front of the apartment.

Several people roam around. While some teenagers were discussing whether they would look cool with stupid overpriced leather jacket.

On the other hand, mothers were roaming around their kids as they played. My eyes kept roaming around when something caught my attention. 

A mother sat on the bench with a basket beside her when a girl shouted in her direction. I also looked in that direction and found a three year old girl running towards her with a big balloon in her hand. 

She kept shouting, "Mom, Dad bought this for me." Her sweet voice increasing the void in my heart.

His dad also ran behind her ready to catch her if she falls. The mother giggled at the sight and kissed the girl as she reached there.

Following her, she pecked on her husband cheeks as that man rubbed the back of his head not able to hide his blush. 

The mother chuckled at his reaction. "Okay, let's go now. It's getting late." With this, they all walked past me. I did not realize until I felt the wetness on my face. As I touched my face, the water got on my fingers. 

Oh Lord, do you really hate me that much?

I wanted to scream my thoughts out loud not caring if people thought of me as I was some crazy woman who just got dumped by his boyfriend/ husband or whatever. 

But I cared. I cared too much to let go of everything. Even if it means I have to step into that home again. His room where I was not allowed to enter.

It always being his room while I stayed in different one through out those three years.

Same with my existence in his life as I was forced myself into it without his permission. Slowly I might have started to understand his perspective. 

Entering the aprtment, I found Caroline setting up the things in the cabinet. The moment she saw me, she dropped everything and walked to me.

She made me sat at the couch as she inspected me from head to toe. 

"Were you crying?" The emotions ignited after seeing that family erupted out of me. I hugged while doing the ugly cry. She took me like a mama bear and kept rubbing my back until my cries stopped. 

She took my face in her palm as she asked, " Okay, now tell me. Did that oldie said something to you?" I kept sniffing as I told her from head start.

I also expressed the turmoil going inside of me and did not know how to make a decision.

That whatever decision I took, I would be worried either way. Caroline patiently listened to my ranting. At the end, when I finished, she gave me a serious expression as she suggested, "I think you should go." 

I looked at her with surprise. I did not expect this assertiveness from her. Moreover, I thought she will ask me to not to go.

I blinked in confusion as she explained further, "I know you did not expect this answer coming from me but first hear me out." 

I stayed there as she started to speak. "According to what you told me going there and helping him would neutralize the feeling of guilt." The time went by as she explained how it might too work clearing my head.

That whether she wanted to continue the relationship with Dave or not.

When she ended the whole conversation with one sentence, "I know being with him would freshen up the wound but think of it as giving it an second chance. If it worked for you it would be great but if not..."

She paused leaving the rest hanging in the silence. I knew what she meant. In these past few days, I shared almost everything with her. The diary which none of them wanted to even open, she just read it completely within these past days. 

She took a deep breath as she cocluded, "The last decision is yours, Ele. If only ou feel comfortable enough then only go." 

I, too nodded as a weak smile plastered over my lips, "I know. Thanks for talking me out on this." 

She waved off her hand as if it was not a big deal. We then preapared our dinner and enjoyed the rest of the evening binging a rom com. 

Caroline till now was asleep and I too feel groggy with all the exhaustion when a notification popped up at my phone.

I did not want to even glance at it but something told me other wise. As I retrived the phone, a message notification showed on the screen.

The message was not the surprising part but the sender was. 

Dave.

Come down.
