All Chapters of YOU WAITED: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

We stare at each other. That's what we've been doing as minutes passed by." Akiandra what is this?" He steps into the room, closing the door behind him." Just as you can see, I'm giving you, your life back. " I watch his head drop down, hands on his hips. He bites at his lips and nods his head before looking up at me again." We are still married." "Not for long" I quickly say, cutting him off." Is this about yesterday because I - " He stops short of his words.He can't do it." You don't have to strain yourself or force yourself even, to say it. You can't apologise, it's not you, it's not in you to do so and you know what? - I've made peace with that." I take a breath before turning away from him and taking my bag in hand." I've made peace with a lot of things, handled a lot of things and still I stood. But last night was a different

Right after Keith had left, I found my body moving on it's own. I was busting some serious moves and squealing with joy, a permanent smile remaining on my face till I laid in bed.How long I'd awaited an apology. The day had filled with a new norm for myself, only for things to take a turn when he just rocked up on my doorstep.What had caused a change of heart or even changed the way he viewed things. Such questions stay locked at the back of my head, not wanting anything to mess up the wonderful moment I feel.In the two years of my marriage , such an act of him on his knees, pleading for forgiveness and asking for my friendship has never happened.The moment those words left his lips, I swear my heart stopped. Giddy, that's how I feel, to have a much closer look at his life, being led into his thoughts, dreams and all. I don't even know what could be more worth it, then getting to k

I can't believe I'm doing this. Well I can't believe this is happening, I'm travelling with Keith.When he asked me to accompany him, I wasn't really thinking straight, I was still stunned about what happened with London. Everything after he left and I agreed to go with Keith, became a blur. Now I'm sitting beside Keith, who's busy on his laptop. Probably with work.We're going to the airport right now and I'm nervously excited to go to Aspen. I've never been to Aspen. To add to this excitement, I'm going with Keith. I know he might be busy with work and all but when he's not busy, I'll just have to drag him around and create a little fun for the both of us. You know, creating memories.My mom would be squealing with joy at watching me travel to places. She'd always known that I had a heart for travelling, experiencing new things, learning and storing memories of a life time.I watch curiously as we pas

I shyly sneak a glance at Keith, whilst he's driving , a blush warms my cheeks at thoughts of what happened at the restaurant, his words, the way he was so gentle with me until now and of course, the awesome cake I can't wait to devour, that's on my lap.Not being able to control myself, I turn my head to really take him in. So many words ring in mind as I stare at him.Handsome, hot, dreamy......I could go on."Stop, that's distracting." He says."But I didn't even do anything." I try suppress a grin." You're staring." " Sorry." I quickly look away, playfully drumming my fingers on the cake box.A hand covers mine. I smile at this. Arriving home, he gets out and comes over to my side, helping me out of the car.Right when I'm out of the car, his jacket is placed over my shoulders, preventing the cold from making me

" Keith?!"" I have to go." He says to Joe, his eyes glancing up at me for a second before rushing out of the house.I sigh, sitting down on the step and looking at the door as if he'll come right back in.This is how it's been since yesterday, after Mrs Davies came by to take Bella back to Riley, accompanied by Keith, surprisingly. He never once spoke to me after he returned. He simply distanced himself from me and today is no different.It's like we are back to how things were, and I can't blame it on anyone else but me.I messed things up.He overheard me talking to Bella, finally finding out my true feelings for him and now that he knows, I bet he doesn't want anything to do with me. How could I be so stupid as to not close the door?I'm afraid that I've even lost the remaining thing I have with Keith and that's our new found friendship.
