She stood up.โNo. You stay here. I'll be back in a few minutesโ I walked to the bathroom and it was pretty occupied.So I went upstairs to use the bathroom there, yes it's not my first time here. I got in there.Halfway into the bathroom, I heard someone cough from behind me. I jumped and turned around to see some unfamiliar person standing two feet away from me."Oh, sorry. The bathroom downstairs was taken," I tried to explain. The man, looking in his thirties, didn't say anything. Maybe he lived here? I could see, he looked strong. "Um, hello?" I waved to his face.He crossed his arms and gave me an evil smirk that sent chills down my back and I had goosebumps all over. I trusted my gut, so I backed up into the bathroom and fumble

I brought some pants and shirt. Wellโฆ Claire did but she said she'll see you soon, her business is under crisis.โ Vincenzo explained while putting the clothes on the bed.โOkay.โ It was her reply that made Vincenzo realise that she was still mad at him. So instead, he patted Edgardoโs back. The nurse walked in.โRise and Shine Sweetheart. The bruises will be gone in a few days and for now sign these.โ She gave Leilani some discharge forms.โYou!โ The nurse pointed at Vincenzo. He looked away. โCome on. Bring them to me.

At The Therapist.She spent an hour without saying anything. Edgardo even tried to excuse himself but nothing made her talk.โOkay. I understand, it may be that you don't want to talk. But if you feel like talking, you can always write everything down.โ The Therapist said to Leilani who was quiet the whole session.โThank you.โ That's all she said. She stood up and walked out to find Edgardo waiting.โHey baby.โ He said as he removed the hair from her face. She smiled. โI need some rest. Can we go home?โ Edgardo smiled to her.โAnything for you baby.โ He said as he walked with her to the car.He dropped there and had to leave. She stayed with Claire.โSoโฆ who you going to choose?โ Leilani looked at Claire who was eating potato chips.โWhat do you mean?โ Leilani asked as she sat raised her eyebrows.โLeilani, you do realise you have to choose the man you want to end up with? And Honestly, there's no way you could ever do it without hurting anyone.

"Shit," he said under his breath. He motioned me over to him, so I got up quickly and stood in front of him."Vincenzo?" the female voice called. "Are you okay?""Just a second!" he replied. He turned to me, lowering his voice. "Leilani, you have to hide. I'll explain later but for right now, you can't let her see you.""Who is she?" I demanded, being sure to keep my voice low. I felt the tears prickle in my eyes, but I blinked them back, determined not to cry."I'll explain later, just get in the closet," he pleaded. Without another word, I turned away from him and opened the hallway closet, stepped inside the dark, tiny space, then closed the door behind me. I lowered myself onto the ground, sat on the carpet slowly, and pulled my knees to my chest, listening carefully."It'll be okay," he whispered into the cracks in the door. I rested my chin on my arms and waited. Light flooded into the cracks on the closet door when he opened the front door. The sound of heels on tile echoed thr

Not to mention my wedding dress.The dress leaves my shoulders mostly uncovered and flows down into a graceful cowl neckline. It's a little loose fit which makes the dress look beautiful, cute, yet elegant and stylish.My arms are completely uncovered. A choice which adds to the elegance and grace of the dress.The dress' waist is thin, but it's a slim fit. It's left simple, elegant and undecorated, creating a look that flows from top to bottom.Below the waist the dress widens and has a box pleated style.
