Chapter 85: Chapter 85

SIMOUNE

I could see daddy in the distance, so no matter how far he was, I tried to run to catch up and hug him, when I caught up with daddy, I hugged him very tightly

Daddy hugged me back and I could feel his presence in that hug when I suddenly woke up. It's sad that I can only see and hug him in my dreams. I don't know how I can recover from the pain I feel now

Suddenly someone knocked on my bedroom door so I immediately got up and opened it

"Simoune, you have a visitor downstairs" Nanny Lily said

"Who is that Nanny Lily?" I asked

"Your mommy and her husband are also with your siblings" Nanny Lily said

I don't know how I will react but I know this is not the right time to be angry with mommy so I immediately went downstairs to see mommy, she immediately greeted me with her hug

"Condolence dear, I know you are feeling a lot of pain right now but remember that I am still here for you" Mommy said while hugging me tightly

"I'm glad you came here mommy and you didn't forget us" I said

"I will never forget you Simoune, we are from another country but when I heard about what happened I immediately booked a ticket just to come home and visit you" Mommy said

"Thank you uncle for allowing mommy to come here" I said

"There is no problem there Simoune, we are also your family" Uncle said, he also offered me a hug

We went to Daddy's grave while Mommy and I were walking

"I heard you haven't eaten, Bruce told me you haven't eaten, that's bad for your health Simoune" Mommy said

"I still don't know how I can eat after what happened to me and daddy, so I'm just putting everything to sleep" I said

"Do you think your daddy will be happy when he finds out you haven't eaten? Most likely, he will be angry because you haven't eaten" Mommy said

"But I don't really know how I can eat, maybe I just need enough rest so I can move forward and eat" I said

"Maybe that's what you need, Simoune, don't put pressure on yourself, you can move forward too dear! Many people love you Nanny Lily, me and Bruce are here. I just found out that Bruce is your boyfriend? Congratulations dear!” Mom said

"What about Charles mommy, do you know that?" I asked

"I know dear, that's why he didn't come here because he knew you would only get angry. After your sister’s birthday, he confessed to your uncle and we were angry because of what happened to you, so dear, I'm very sorry that you experienced all that because of Charles" Mommy said

Maybe it's not bad if I forgive mommy because this is what daddy wants me to forgive mommy because she deserves to be forgiven, I immediately hugged mommy I don't feel angry anymore because what I have now is more important to me

"That's okay mommy, I've forgiven him and I've forgiven you. Now let's give daddy this moment" I said

Mommy and I talked all night because maybe she missed a lot that happened in my life, I'm glad because somehow I realized what daddy said that it feels good to forgive and it feels really good, I realized also that I'm not mad at mommy but I'm just sulking about the decisions she made before that I don't think she thought about me but now I'm okay. Maybe she just chose to have fun and there was nothing I could do about it

When I could no longer bear the sleepiness I felt, I immediately said goodbye to mommy

"Mommy, I'll sleep in my room first. Mommy, do you want to sleep first? Daddy's funeral will be tomorrow morning, you might fall asleep there if you don't sleep now" I said

"I can't go to sleep, Simoune, but can your brother and sister sleep next to you? It's been sleepy for a while now" mommy said

"No problem mommy" I said

I went up to my room with my brother and sister and they immediately laid down and it looked like they were really sleepy because as soon as they laid down they immediately fell asleep, I was about to close the door of my room when Bruce suddenly appeared

"Babe?" He said

"Babe, why?" I asked

"I just miss you, I won't take care of you anymore babe because I'm the one who always watches over uncle in the living room" Bruce said

"That's okay babe, I understand that. Are you still asleep?” I said

"Yes, babe, when Nanny Lily is sleeping and I were changing her position I’ll be the one who guide the visitors, by the way, I made you some milk because you haven't eaten, so I wish you could just drink milk" He said, I couldn't refuse so I let him in and we sat on the sofa in my room

"Looks like your siblings are tired" He said

"Yes, of course they are not used to staying awake late" I said

"But are you okay with your mommy? Aren't you angry with her or angry with your uncle?" Bruce asked

"No more babe, I now understand better what daddy was telling me before about forgiveness. Is that really the case? Even if you don't get what you want, you still need to forgive because that was needed, what should be done" I said

"But have you really forgiven auntie? Also uncle and Charles?” Bruce asked

"Yes, and I'm super glad that I was able to forgive them even though it was very difficult to forgive" I said

Bruce hugged me and then kissed me on the forehead

"I'm so proud of you babe for being so brave, I love you!" He said

"I love you too" I said

"Oh come on, take a rest, drink the milk I prepared thank you" Bruce said

"Thank you for all your efforts! Rest too, daddy's funeral is later, so you need to rest too" I said

"Yes, Nanny Lily is still resting so later I will take care of the visitors" He said

Bruce kissed me again on the forehead and on the lips and immediately left my room, I lay down and then I looked at my siblings, they are very lucky because they still have mommy and daddy now. It's also funny because even though I don't see them every day, they know me and they are still very sweet to me. My heart is very happy that there are kid who love me.

…

While Simoune was sleeping, the people downstairs were talking, Bruce and Simoune's mother were talking and so was Lucy. It's been a long time since Simoune's mommy hasn't seen Simoune’s friends

"Oww! You all grown up it's like when you were babies playing outside the house" Simoune's mommy said

"That's why, look at Simoune and Bruce, it's very unexpected that they will be in a relationship" Lucy said

"I'm not surprised because when you young, I already know and I can feel it" Simoune's mommy said

"That's great auntie! You know that too?" Lucy said

"HAHAHA, it's funny to know that now Bruce has confessed" Simoune's mommy said

They laughed and talked with their parents and told them everything that happened in their lives today

After they talked, Nanny Lily woke up so Bruce went to sleep because what time was it and he hadn't slept yet, the others had also gone to sleep for the funeral that would take place later. Simoune's mommy and uncle slept in the living room and Lucy’s parents slept in Nanny Lily's room

They all rested because they felt so tired and drained.
