Chapter 31: Truth

Wrapping her arm around me Cherry brought my weeping figure inside as Brandon closed the door behind us. Cher sat us down on the couch as she kept trying to calm me down, but no matter how many times I wiped my tears away new ones would start rolling down and the uncontrollable sharp breath intake only intensified, making it hard for me to breath.

Cher's eyes locked with Brandon's who was sitting across from us. Without saying anything they communicated with their eyes. They both nodded as if they had reached to an agreement.

Exhaling Cherry placed my head on to her chest as she stroked my head. We were sitting in that position for what felt like hours. They quietly let me cry my eyes out until my wails were reduced to sobs and until the tremor in my body had calmed down.

“You're okay now?” Cher asked quietly. I nodded against her chest, letting out even breathing that matched the soothing rhythm of her heartbeat.
