Chapter 7 Cutting You Loose

Kelly's POV

I slowly turned around and I'm certain I paled when I saw two people standing a few meters away from us. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Pierce still on the floor, looking at the newcomers with a shocked face.

"G-Grams…" I mumbled as I felt my throat dry.

She shook her head as she laughed nervously. "I must be hearing things. How's everyone? I missed all of you, so we paid a visit."

"Grams…" Pierce pulled himself up and walked towards his grandmother.

She was the one who raised him so he loved her and respected her so much. I cupped my mouth when Grams ignored Pierce and looked away.

I took a deep breath and gathered all my courage to speak again… "Grams, I'm sorry…"

She looked at me with tears in her eyes, "D-Did my grandson hurt you, Kelly?"

I shook my head, "No, Grams. He's the sweetest. I-I just…I just feel like I need to let him go because we're not really meant for each other."

"Kelly…" I heard Mrs. Anderson sobbing.
