Chereads / A unique love / Chapter 6 - Chapter 6

Chapter 6 - Chapter 6

The next day, Violet decided to spend the day alone at home to rest and sort out her ideas while watching her TV.

- Finally a day of my own, if even on a Sunday I can't be quiet when will I be?

But she had spoken a little too fast because the next second, her phone went to her coffee table and she took it with weariness. Seeing his mother's contact, his smile reappeared.

- Hello mom darling. How are you?

- I'm doing very well and you? How are you doing at work?

- Yes mom. It's going very well especially if I have an assistant like Layla.

- I'm relieved to know. Besides, speaking of Layla, you didn't tell me that her big brother had come back.

Violet swallowed almost crooked and straightened up.

- Uh yes indeed, Cameron came back a week ago. But why do you say that? Did he come to see you?

- No but Layla came to me and told me because she suspected that you hadn't told me yet.

Violet sighed. Layla and her kindness will always do too much.

- Darling, talk to me. Tell me the truth about how you feel. I suspect you talked about it with his little sister but I am your mother and I also want to know how you feel.

- Yes you're right mom, you have every right to know.

- How are you?

She had known for a long time that her mother would eventually worry about her with Cameron's return. But the problem is that she always made tons of them to the point of threatening every person who hurt her. Of course it is a normal reaction in a very loving mother and she thanked her every day but since she is getting older, she would like her not to waste her tension worrying about this kind of thing. But today, she wants to please him.

- I confess that I was upset. I'm angry, of course, but I'm also lost on how I feel for him right now. I'm not saying I've already forgiven him...but...

- Has he ever approached you? Have you ever met again?

- More than once. Twice exactly.

- And...

- As soon as he approaches me I feel that he still has a strong grip on me. But that doesn't mean I let him hug him.

- Has he ever kissed you?

- No and he hasn't tried yet, don't worry about that.

- My darling, I'm not telling you that I refuse you to get back together but what I want to know is...

- Yes mom. Yes my feelings for him resurface and yes he still has a lot of effect on me especially when he approaches me.

- At that time, everyone said that you were fine together and that it was obvious that he really loved you. But I always told you the same thing and I will tell you again today. Pay attention to yourself and listen to what your heart and consciousness tell you.

The problem is that his conscience told him one thing and his heart another. And that didn't really help him. Finding herself constantly wanting to make her first love back was obviously not an easy thing for her especially if he insisted on not leaving her alone simply because he wants to reconnect with her.

- The first time I saw him again, he told me that he came back for me.

- Did he really tell you that? Opposite?

- Yes. With a terrifying seriousness.

- And since what happened?

- I avoid him or I am hostile to him.

- But you know that's not what will regulate your tension. Have you already talked about what happened and the reason for his departure?

- Yes.

- Do you feel able to forgive him?

- And you mom, do you think you will forgive the man who broke your daughter's heart before?

- Yes my darling, yes because in my opinion everyone is entitled to a second chance in their life. But it's up to you to decide. So I'll let you rest and take care of yourself. Say hello to Layla for me when you see her tomorrow.

- No problem. Thank you mom, kisses bye.

- Bye my beautiful.

She hung up and lay down on her couch before hearing her phone vibrate again.

- Who are you this time?

When she saw her best friend appear on her screen,

- If you want to say that you still have something planned with me today, I'll tell you right away no. I want to laze and rest. Today is my day.

- Don't worry. I don't intend to disturb you, I wanted to know if your mother had called you?

- You knew she would do it since the lady went to tell her that her former son-in-law had returned.

- You know me and you know that I love your mother and you too much to hide such an important thing from her.

- Very good and thank you. It allowed me to talk and confide in her.

- So finally, I did well. Other than that, I wanted to warn you that tomorrow I will only work tomorrow, we don't work.

- And why?

- Do you at least remember that tomorrow is a holiday?

- Seriously?

She got up in a hurry and glanced at her calendar before returning to sink into her sofa.

- Seriously Violet even if you don't watch the news, at least check your calendar.

- I never understood why this day was a holiday since it is not even that important.

- Maybe but maybe I refuse you to work. So I suggest you come to my house tomorrow.

- If your goal is for me to see Cameron, you can forget it, I prefer to stay here.

- Cam has his own house. A gigantic house that is fifteen minutes from my house. So no, he won't be there. I just want to spend this day with you tomorrow laze too. And then, Violet, you know that you won't always be able to avoid my brother. You have already taken a first step, that is, talk about the cause of your breakup. Now we must move on to the second step which is to try to forgive and give ourselves a second chance.

- But why does everyone tell me that, first my mother and then you as always. Besides, you would make a very good psychologist.

- Thank you I know but you know I'm right. So you agree to spend a day soling in front of the TV with your best friend?

- Of course if it's just that, it suits me very well.

- Thank you!!!! See you tomorrow.

- Bye my beautiful.

She hung up and turned her TV back on. A few hours later, when she woke up, she realized that she had dozed off in front of her TV. Suddenly, her doorbell rang and she got up with difficulty to see who came to visit her on a Sunday afternoon. She saw a man through the eyelet of her door and rubbed her eyes before recognizing him. This man was a former patient who had harassed her a year earlier and who more recently assaulted her at the entrance of her office three months earlier before Layla intervened. She immediately panicked and called Layla eagerly before bursting into tears.

- I didn't expect you to call me back so quickly you miss me de....

- Yes I miss you and especially right now, please help me.

- What's going on? Why are you breathing so badly?

- Layla, he's back!

- Is he back? Who is that my brother?

- NO!! The aggressor!! He's at my door right now and I'm sure he doesn't know I recognized her and that's why I still haven't opened.

There was a mini silence before Layla spoke again.

- Violet, listen to me well. You call the police and I call my brother.

- Cameron doesn't need to know!!

- Violet!! This is not the time to make whims, you are in danger and my brother is the safest person I know to help you and I am sure he will be there well before the police. So do what I tell you.

- D....okay. You're coming too huh?

- Of course I'm coming with him. I won't leave you in such a moment. I am going to hang up. Wait a few moments but above all be careful and don't open the door. It will be fine.

- Please hurry up, I'm terribly terrified.

- I know my beautiful. I'm coming right away.
