“I didn’t want any of this, just leave me alone,”He finally said.“We will, Liam, I hope when we all let you have it that you won’t regret anything, you might think we have our shortcomings as your parents and I agree that we do but one thing we have always done is put your best thought at heart, we have always looked out for your best interest and in doing so we became people you don’t want to see thinking we always project what we want on you but that’s not the case I can tell you,”His dad said and paused, Liam didn’t want to interrupt him so he just kept quiet, let him say what he want, it doesn’t change anything for him.“We do our best but you think it is us not letting you have it your own way and I am not even disputing that fact, I once thought the same about my parents until we had you and you started thinking the same, I bet you will give birth and your children will also feel like you are not letting them decide their life but the truth is no parents want anything less fo

Jordan stared at the night sky wondering just when it got so dark, he had been so deep in thought that he hadn’t noticed it had gotten so dark, well, this was how his life was and has been since the day he had left the hospital after speaking to Liam’s mom, his life hadn’t gone back to normal, far from it, for the first five days he was a complete mess, crying and being a miserable man, he went through the different phase of heartbreak and he wasn’t still at the acceptance phase yet and it had been over two weeks now, he has given up on forgetting and just moving on because that was impossible.Of course, Lucas's visit helped him a little but he couldn't say it did much though because right after Lucas left he was back being a crying mess, men don't cry? That had to be the biggest joke that was said because all it takes was for the man to be heartbroken and he would reduce to nothing but a crying mess like him.There was nothing he could do that could cheer him up long-term, he took L

“I am sorry mom, I didn’t mean to do that, I didn’t mean to make you worried about me,”“Don’t say sorry, dust yourself up, and let’s go about this another way,”She said.“How?”He whispered but she heard him anyway.“We start small, first you go upstairs, take a bath and have a clean shave while I run through getting this place back in shape, then we can do some fun things together, I won’t spend the night here just to give you the space you need but I will stay throughout the day, is that okay? We can bake, you like baking,”It sounded like it would be fun plus she was understanding enough to know that he would want to be alone.“Sure mom, I will like to spend the day with you,”He said and she smiled.“Good, now go take a shower,”She said pointing him in the direction of his bedroom, he didn’t say a word and just held over to his room to take a bath, it took him a while to be done and when he came back, his living room was clean and didn’t smell of alcohol anymore, his mom waved

“So, we are finally saying goodbye to each other, even though we still have to see each other for a while, I am glad you can finally go home,”The doctor said and Liam resisted the urge to roll his eyes at him, yeah right, he was damn sure he wasn’t.“Thank you so much for everything Doc,”His mom said on his behalf, that ever since he had a confrontation with his day, both of his parents have been laid back with him, he noticed but had tried not to put too many thoughts into it since that was what he had wanted in the first place, even while visiting him, his mom barely say anything to him, except it was pressing, maybe they were finally letting him have it but it felt off.“It is my job, Liam, I would advise you to take going to see the therapist we booked for you serious , it will help a lot,”The doctor said and Liam nodded even though he didn’t have any intentions of going to see the therapist, he wasn’t insane and didn’t need no shrink getting into his head and invading his spac

“Am I seeing Liam or someone else,”Someone said from behind him and he turned around to see a fine looking guy with curly hair walking toward him with a bright smile.“Wow, Liam? You are awake? Wow, bro, it is so good to see you alive the last time I saw your boyfriend he was looking like hell and was all worried about you, you should treat him right, he went through a lot,”The strange guy said not even giving him a chance to ask him who he was, from the way he spoke to him he must really know about him, and once again, the crazy dude was top on the list of decisions, how was he ever going to get rid of the Jordan guy from his memory when everyone he meets keeps mentioning him? It was so hard to forget him even when he no longer comes around, he hasn’t seen him since when he told him to fuck off at the hospital three weeks ago.“I am sorry do we know each other?”He asked with a puzzled look.“Did you lose your mind too? Wow, don’t tell me you don’t remember me, that will be so bad,

When Jordan finally decided to back to work, he realized that he couldn’t take the pity states that he got from his coworker so he decided to meet with Lucas and ask him to be transferred to another place, he liked working in California so that was where came to his mind first when he had thought of leaving New York, of course, he still needed to speak with his parents about it but first, he needed to speak with Lucas and yes he was using his privileges this time, usually, he would need to write to administration and then wait for responses but he wanted to get out of the state so bad that he didn’t mind using his privilege of being a close friend of the owner of the company, he called Lucas on his way to work this morning and Lucas had told him that he would be at the office which is why he was on his way there now to lay down his needs.“Is he in?”He asked the receptionist.“Hi, sir, yes he is and he told me to let you in so you can go in,”He thanked her and walked into Lucas's en

Liam decided to finally go see the therapist his doctor had recommended for him, he just knew he needed to speak with someone or he would go mad with the kind of thoughts he was having, he didn’t know if it was after symptoms of him being in a coma for so long or if it is the loneliness that was making him this way, all he knew was that he hated how he was feeling and needed solution.He woke up earlier on Thursday morning and called the shrink that he would be coming to his office to see him, the doctor must have been expecting his call because she responded that she would be expecting him, after making an appointment, Liam took his bath and managed to eat breakfast before leaving the house, he boarded a cab to the hospital, a different hospital from the one he had spent so much time in, he honestly didn’t want to go back there but he still had to but not right now.“Good to finally have you here,”The doctor said as he entered his office.“Do you know me?”He had to ask, he couldn’t
