Alissa
When I got up from sleep, I saw a message of Eric in which it was written that today is a day off of the company
Probably cause he got married!!!
That shit hits hard. I swear to god. I was still not able to sink that shit inside of me. I am just thinking that this phase has to pass. Like, even if I have to cry every single night, I have to move on. Because, I am going to see his face every single day and I have to accept the fact that instead of me it was Cheryl who took vows in that church.
I went to cook some food. Jade was still sleeping in her room. I thought not to disturb her. I cooked some bakon and scrambled eggs. It can lighten my mood a bit, I thought. Last night was almost spent in crying. I just don't think I will ever be able to move on and I will ever find the true love of my life. I want to forget whatever happened between me and Eric. I know it must be easy for him to move on........I guess. It's just a wild guess maybe he is also missing me and cursing his luck. Maybe he wants to get back with me. Maybe he must be thinking about me like I am thinking about him right now.
Stop Alissa. You have to move on. You can't live like that. I made my breakfast and went to wake up Jade who was sleeping like a princess right now. Carefree. I wish I could have a life like that. Carefree. I woke her up and she quickly got ready. We both ate our food in a complete silence. No one was in the mood of talking. But she suddenly spoke to me.
"Why haven't you been to office today?"
"It's a day off" I replied in a flat tone.
She just hummed and we both finished our breakfast. Later, she went to her room and I was left alone thinking what to do. I looked at the clock and it was 10:28. I thought to clean up the house. So I cleaned the whole house. I washed the clothes. I washed the dishes. Jade did the dusting. I rearranged my small little library. Those love novels staring right through me. I huffed and started to arrange them in a much better order.
I looked at the clock and now it was 1:15. Wow! Time passed pretty quick.
I lied in my bed and realising I haven't been giving any time to myself. All I have been doing is crying and going to office and not staying at home that is why it was getting so hard to stay at home. I should have given time to myself. I suddenly heard my doorbell ring. I saw Jade coming out of her room. We both stepped down the stairs and I opened the door only to find Cassandra there with a huge smile. I was pretty confused seeing her. Because she should be at the wedding. Has she came here to invite me. Wait? What is happening?
She captured me in a warm hug and I returned that hug.
She looked at me and said
"Haven't gotten much sleep huh?" I laughed and tried to answer but what could I have even said.
"Hi Jade" Cassandra said and captured her in a hug as well.
"Why you are not at the wedding?" I asked.
"It's already done" She said breaking my heart into million of pieces.
"Early right?" I said and she nodded.
"I came here to know why you both never showed up at the wedding?" She said crossing her arms.
"I was not well" I said.
"I can see that. Just look at you. You are looking quite weak. You are not eating or what?" She exclaimed.
I just shrugged and we both sat on the couch and Jade went back to her room not bothered by this world at all.
"Just go and get ready. It's a day off today. So let's hang out" She said.
"Why are you coming with me?" I asked.
"Why can't two best friends hang out together?" She said.
Best friends?
I felt something inside of me. Not really understanding what it really is.
