《Meant To Be》Chapter 27- Glimpse of the past

Ella's POV
When I saw uncle Bill the other day at the meeting. I was more than happy, I was elated.
Bill was dad's best friend and my favourite among dad's friends. They grew up together and went the the same school. He didn't have a wife and never thought of actually getting married, but he loves children and that is where I came in. He treated me like his own daughter. I remember when I was a kid, I used to cry and I did it a lot! But only he could cooed me to stop in no time. I would have sleepovers at his place because of how he would pamper me. Seeing him the other day I still felt like a child when I wrapped my arms around him in a tight hug. I missed him so much like I misses someone. I small potion of my mind whispered but I just ignored it. That is what I have being doing all this years. I ignore anything that has to do with my past, anything that Will make me remember the things I try to forget.
When mum passed away uncle Bill was there for me, us. He organized everything when I and dad were too shocked and in pain to do anything.
When it got harder and harder for me to live in that house. I couldn't bear to watch the silent remains of what was my home, our home. I couldn't watch everything shatter in front of me and yet I could do nothing.
I just disappeared one day when I felt I couldn't take it any longer. That was easier than staying in the same house with him
Over the years I have locked all those memories deep deep down me, it hurts so much to think of anything about my past. So it is safe down there where no body can reach, where I wouldn't allow anyone access not even my self.

I haven't thought of meeting anyone from my past, but deep down I knew that if I did I most likely wouldn't be happy to see them I thought I wouldn't be happy to see a part of the things ( people) I am running away from. And I really wanted to be angry, sad or anything but happy, yet I couldn't hold back the wide grin that left my lips when i was alone with Bill after the meeting.
"Hey! your ride is here." Lena said narrowing her eyes at me then added "are you sure you don't want me to come with you? She questioned with her eyes dancing with concern.
"yes. Very! I will be fine" I assured her putting my hands on her shoulder "and I will call you if anything" I continued as she visibly relax.
"do have fun" she wave when I was seated in the black SUV car
"and don't forget to call me if anything okay?"
"Yes mum" I yell causing the driver to Laugh with me
"She cares" the driver, John spoke after we settled back from the laughter and drive in silence.
"Yes" I whispered. Lena has been like an elder sister to me even though we are the same age. She acts motherly if need be. At the beginning I thought it was pity except I hadn't told her about mum yet and when I finally did her motherly instincts as she will like to call it always kicks in now and then. I was okay with it since she wasn't pitying me. She was concern most of the time. Growing up on her own with nobody to support her made her mature more than her age.
When John pulled up to our destination, I tried to relax and enjoy this dinner. Tried is the key word. I was nervous. John got down and opened the door for me. I murmur a thank you before getting out as well. I saw Bill walk towards us from the front door " he is as nervous as you are, just relax" John whisper near my ear so only I could hear. I relax after hearing him offering him a thankful smile.

"Hey!! Princes" Bill hug me, tight.
"Sorry I couldn't pick you up" he apologizes still holding me tight like he didn't want me to slip away,... again.
I try opening my mouth but nothing came out. he beat me to it speaking before I could formulate anything to say. "I missed you, princess" he whispered into my ear. His voice had a lot of emotions in it and I could not make them out but yeah I didn't miss the longingness in it and his hug, he poured his all in it. The hug said it all. Like he is meeting his long lost daughter after a century. Bill is one of rare species of a man who shows his emotions unlike the many that I know of. "I missed you too, a lot" and it's true I did missed him.
"Pardon my manners, this way" he let go at last ushering me inside his house. I could use some air in my lung. That hug took the air in me. I in healed the fresh breeze hitting me from the right side of the house.
"This place is amazing " the house was simple from outside but the inside was wonderfully designed.
We had dinner whiles catching up on everything. The food was delicious.uncle Bill is an amazing chef if I haven't filled you in on that. He cook delicious and mouthwatering dishes.
"Ella" I lift my head to meet uncle Bill's eyes which were already on me. He calls me by my name when he want to say something important or when he is angry or mad at me, yet as he took my name I didn't know which of them it was. I stare at his eyes. This is the moment I drifted. "mmm" I mumbled scarce of what he will say next. I waited the whole night to hear it. I knew it was just a matter of time. I wasn't ready to talk about that, I wasn't ready to revisit my Excruciating past. Yet a tinny bit of me deep down wanted to have this conversation.

Softest Lips | on hold
𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝-"I just kissed the softest lips that god has ever madeAnd I am so in love with the girl to whom these lips he gave." Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on.Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more?𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲: me
