All Chapters of Our Story: Harvey's Life: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

 White ceiling. Beeping. Nasty smell. Cries. Laughter. Weak. Heavy eyelids. Hand being held and rubbed.   I wanted to absorb all of this in when I heard someone shout, "She's awake! Doctor!"I felt something cold in my ear, on my chest and a hand on my forehead. The light was too bright, so I closed my eyes. After a little while, I reopened them as a set of lips kissed my forehead. Luke's face came into view."Are you okay?" He cupped my cheek. I was too weak to reply. I looked straight into his eyes and blinked."I don't know what that means but I'm so fucking proud of you. Thank you for waking up.""Stop being a pussy. I told you she was gonna be okay." Lucas smiled at me.I looked around to search for someone but..."Where's Johnson?" I asked weakly.Luke scoffed and scrunched up his face in disgust."He went to check o

 ..................................................................................    Tess Harvey stood in front of her house with her a bag slung over her shoulder and another suitcase beside her.    She looked at the house she had lived in years ago. It looked different. Looks like mom's been redecorating,she thought.   She pressed the doorbell once again as it obviously wasn't answered the first time."MOM!!!" She screamed. The door flung open as Barbara came into view. She embraced her daughter in an air depriving hug. 

  A girl who is full of madness.A girl who avoids sadness.The pain of others makes her weak.A girl who is strict and funny.               She woke up with a lazy attitude. She sluggishly put on her sport outfit and went jogging on the streets. After an hour, she was back.     She quickly freshened up and wore her clothes. Wearing a black shirt with dark blue trousers and knee high boots, she reached into her closet for her jacket. She stuffed some clothes into a duffel bag and slung it over her shoulder as she skipped downstairs.      "Good morning, sweetheart." Barb greeted her daughter casually as she hugged her. "I'm not gonna be home for a few days so please take of yourself," she said to he

 "You're cops. The receptionist said you wanted to see me. How may I help you?" They were sitting across a man who was dressed neatly in a blue tailored suit. Tess looked at him. He didn't look like someone who was mourning. "I have a meeting in ten minutes so, are you gonna say anything?" He said again."Mr. Hart, we're here to ask you some questions about Miss Anna Bolton." Tess started."Anna? Is she in trouble? I've been trying to call her but she's not answering." He said frantically. "What's your relationship with her?" "She's my fiancee. She's currently pregnant. Is she okay?" You can clearly see him panicking. "Does anyone know about your relationship?" "Of course. I know her friends and she knows mine. My parents know her, we're gonna get married in three months." He explained."Is her mother aware?" David pitched in and Tess shot him a glare."Yes

"You have to do this!" Barb yelled at her daughter. "You need a man!" "No, I don't. Men are liabilities, they're like cars that you have to maintain. I don't want that." "Just this once," she pleaded. "I already told him that you were coming." "Why would you say that? What if it wasn't my day off?" She brushed her hand through her head tiredly. "Why is he so important to you?"     "When I got divorced, the money I got from my alimony wasn't enough for us to move, settle down and continue living the way we were before. His grandmother helped me."   "This is why I hate being in debt to someone!" She walked upstairs abruptly."Does that mean you're going?"           When it was six on the dot, Tess freshened up and began to get ready for her date. After a warm bath, she straightened her hair really well that it was just a little bit above her
