Chapter 130
Ellie
I so miss Max . I'm capable of going long periods without being with someone if it was me who initiated The separation at first but in this case, separation and now I'm regretting everything. I was supposed to go back home on Monday but I had to go back on Wednesday.
It's been 3 weeks since I came back home to find my boyfriend lying in a hospital bed hooked up on all sorts of different machines because he was involved in a fire accident that happened at a popular restaurant that was supposed to be safe for everyone else. Part of me feels like this was a setup and somebody knew where he was going to be and what time Max was going to be there because stuff like that doesn't just happen. Having been a victim of stage attacks . I have reason to believe that the fire and the explosions were planned.
The last time I talked to Max

Chapter 131EllieWhen I looked at Brent I saw that he wanted to better understand what had happened on the day everything went wrong. I'm still in shock I can't believe what happened happened.Part of me still feels like it's a dream but deep down in my heart I know that it's not a dream, the people that I regarded as family and had helped, throughout so many difficult situations; have kicked me out disowned me, and claim that I was just someone wanted somewhere to belong and I belonged with them for a while but I am nothing to them now.I wouldn't usually cry if it was someone I care about but I forget about these people for practically half my life and I found love with their son .So at a point where I'm feeling like I don't know what to do I feel like everything that I've done was just for nothing, of course, my heart is broken, of course it's hurting
Chapter 132MaxI like Brent and I'm so sad that he is leaving today . I didn't know that he knew Ellie . When he told me that he knew her I thought to myself it's a small world after all. I didn't know that they hung out in the same circles but then again it's Ellie , so she hangs out in every circle she's always been versatile , even at school before the other girls got jealous of her, and started spreading lies . We had an inside joke when we were alone together . I called Ellie a versatile geek.I've been wondering why Ellie hadn't to come to visit me over the past few weeks it's been 2 months . 8 weeks is a very long time actually and she is carrying my child. Brent is on his way back to Johannesburg but before that I told him to go check up on Ellie and see if she was doing okay because it was unlike her to pull the radio silence card . I told him to call me when he landed in Johannesburg, and tel
Chapter 133MaxI took a deep breath calmed down and dialled Ellie's number again . I pressed the call button and waited for her to answer the call . She had to answer . I've bee cut off from the whole world and I don't know what is going on right now .All I know is that I was going to brunch with my family and for the first time in a while without Cleo because some thing went down while I was out cold from the injuries I had sustained in the fire . I didn't have a phone but I needed to talk to Ellie. Hence I ask my father to borrow me his.I changed the phone settings to private for the specific call, and Call her again and, so that she can pick up and let me explain myself. I know her too well and for her to just hang up on me when I tell her that it is me is cause for alarm. It was an indication that she was angry or mad and she was being passive aggressive . E
chapter 134EllieDaniel has always been a good friend he is there when you need him; he's got your back when you least expected and most of all he is dependable and when he loves you he loves you completely. His previous exes said that he was very controlling, his words not mine. Truth be told I think he's just misunderstood but he wants the best for everyone else including himself but, sometimes it comes off as being either too controlling or judgemental which is not his intention.As soon as I got the call from Maxwell I was happy and sad at the same time. I was happy because I was hearing his voice after a very very long time, it was like music to my ears. I flashed back to when he would whisper sweet words in my ear and tell me that he loves me and worships the ground I walk on. I then felt sad because the good flashbacks were accompanied by memories. I hung up the first time he called; because I was hurting and I was at work. I can'
Chapter 135EllieWhen I arrived at the restaurant with Daniel our table was already set up. I should have known that he doesn't ask things unless he has thought everything through. It was a lovely day the sun was out and the clouds, well there was not a cloud in the sky. The table Daniel had packed was the perfect table because I could see the ocean and its beauty. It was during the day so it looks like they were pieces of mirror and the ocean glistening and a blue aquamarine color. Fees for change from blue to turquoise to greenish-blue all shades of blue I love that because blue was a calming color and it happened to be one of my favorite colors.I loved Carlo's restaurant for many reasons but the table that Daniel got was the hardest table to get especially during any hour it was a miracle that he managed to call him into giving us the table. I was thankful. I was also thankful that he suggested taking me
Chapter 136MaxI cannot believe I trusted Daniel. He wanted Ellie all along. I didn't pay attention when Blake said that the car that was parked outside in the VIP parking area, looked like Daniel's. I was focused on clearing up a lot of confusion. I was struggling to wrap my head around the fact that Ellie could cheat. She's not the type.I wanted to know what happened with my girlfriend and my family. There are two sides to every story, Ellie told me her version, I wanted to hear my family is very good and hopefully, everything would go back to normal. That's just wishful thinking. I wasI'm still connected to Ellie and part of me could still sense her energy and presence. I had brunch what the family and all of them avoided the elephant in the room. I knew all of them had to answer me, but I didn't think it was the right time. I knew that my mother was hiding something, and my sister was acting way too guilty, Blake was angry, and he
Chapter 137MaxI looked at Ellie and I could see the worry and fear in her eyes. I nodded and took a deep breath ;" I know I broke your heart ten years ago by not believing you and I feel like it wouldn't be fair to you to make you wait. I will talk to my family and I promise to talk to you when I am done."" Oh by the way Maria is in town, and since she's the one spreading lies about everything I suggest you set the record straight with her before things get out of control I mean it."" I will. "" Take care. I have to go your dad is on his way here. "Ellie left the room and when I looked at Daniel he had a bruised jaw. I kind of felt guilty about the whole incident and I should have approached it differently instead of assuming. Truth be told where Ellie is concerned any reasoning goes out the window. She drives me crazy. I looked up at Daniel who seemed calm. 
Chapter 138EllieI thought I was going to have a peaceful drama free day until Max walked in on Daniel asking me to move into his guest house permanently , after I ran the idea of me buying his guest house from him . Maxwell went crazy to the point where he started beating Daniel.His attempt to inflict pain on someone innocent didn't materialize because; Daniel ended it up holding him at bay and getting him to calm down.I didn't expect you to show up like he did and I had felt like he was around . I brushed the feeling off because we had been apart for so long ,and I didn't want to entertain any feelings concerning him because I would feel happy and sad at the same time which is not a good feeling. It's a feeling that brings about feelings of emotional limbo.I avoiding Daniel all week and I didn't realise that it was a friendship anniversary. We were celebrating 20 years together as friends and it was a reall
