chapter 15
After that we left with Palma grandma cooked for her her favorite food which I come to know that they have been close since the time they got here as I was busy fucking my boyfriend my sister was being respectful getting to know our grandparents I went to the college I had afternoon classes but I was getting nothing at all am still wondering how James payed all that amount after classes I find Alice and Emily waiting for me
" we haven't had girls night how about we go to my apartment and spend the night there I need my girls " Emily asked to which we all agreed I need some time Palma is fine with grandparents we all agreed that we will go to see mom the following day together so I called Palma informed her that I will be sleeping at Emily's
" how is your mom and Palma doing " Emily asked we were watching a movie of course Alice chose eating pizza I was craving pineapple pizza there drinking some wine and I was only drinking chocolate milk fun
" they are fine Palma is at home with grandparents and mom is still not awake but the doctor said she is fine " i told them biting on my pizza
" that's good to hear what's the deal with these grandparents i never had them before " Alice asked me
" they disowned my mom when she got pregnant with me she was still young 16 years and they wanted to report my father but before they can get a chance my mom and my father who was 25 by then they ran off so since then they haven't talked to each other until last week when I called them " it's fun how death can get people to talk
" guys am dating" Alice busted out quick Emily turn to me and we laughed at the same time
"I know there have been going on a lot of things and I didn't want to say anything until I was sure where it was going but I am dating " the deal is that it's been like forever since I've seen Alice with a boy she always said that it's not her thing at all
"Alice.... Who is the lucky guy " Emily asked her she looked nervous picking on her nails something she does when she is super nervous
" come on tell us who is the guy " am curious
" the thing is it's not a guy....." Alice said looking between me and Emily like a puzzle we need to figure out we stare at her getting exactly what she is talking about waiting for her to continue
" she is called Juliet "
" when did you become a lesbian " this is so hard to believe not that I have a problem with being a lesbian but i never saw Alice being one
"We meet one time when I was doing my morning run we became friends and one thing led to another we kinda fucked and trust me I realized the reason why it's never worked with those boys " am still staring at her hard to believe that my friend for years I never even had a guess
" Alice am proud of you girl and I want to meet this Juliet she better not break your heart " Emily said as a proud parent we hugged her together did a group hug
My phone rang and it's James calling me
" hello"
" how is the girl's sleeping over going "
" good we needed it" I answered and added" how are you doing "
" good just missing my girlfriend in my apartment "
"You payed my mom's hospital bills "I asked him
" I wanted to help baby you are carrying my child I don't need you to stress over money "
" but you can't go around paying my bills James without even at least asking me first "
" are you serious getting mad because I took care of your bills "
" we will discuss this later good night " I hung up on him before he get a chance to argue with me
The next day in the morning I went to work on the laboratory the days off I had were over now
" hello Luca" I greeted my supervisor who nods his head only this man really have a temper
After Luca ordering me around helping him with everything it was time to go home my feet were killing me I pass to the hospital to visit mom Palma called me earlier to inform me that she woke up
" hey mom" I approached her holding her free hand
" hey stranger " she smiled at me weakly
" mom " i replied faking that it offended me calling me stranger but I knew she is joking around it's good to see her like that
After the doctor told us that she will take 3 to 5 weeks to recover but she must take it easy and she was staying in the hospital for few days to for observation I felt relieved when we went to my mom's hospital room I find James there talking with mom she was laughing about something James said i didn't inter Palma and grandma get inside " you can go in there is something I need to do" I turn around goes to the garden in the back to think I was still going around with the small letter on the day of the surgery
' Leila my princess you were always the light of my life you were the best thing ever happened to me I know you've been busy these days but I want you to know that am proud of you and no matter what happens know that I love you and thank you for everything I got to meet my parents once again take care of your sister for me and look after yourself last but not least let James love you don't be scared of love and don't feel like you don't deserve it because you deserve the world my little princess'
" I knew I would find you here I know you have something with the view " James said standing behind me he comes closer take the sit beside me I still had the letter in my hands tears falling down my face
" a great view helps me to think well" I answered still facing at them same spot
" what's that " James asked me
" nothing just a small gift from my mom " i say looking down lost in my thoughts
" penny of your thoughts " I turn to him
"You need to stop paying for my bills these were my family business your father already hates me imagine if he gets this "
" it's not like am going to run to him you know" he pulls me for a hug
" learn to appreciate things I do for you with out fighting with me okay" he kissed my forehead I hold him tightly feeling grateful that he is here with me
" come home with me tonight " he looks down on me I " Of course "
