If only he loved me too
Chapter 16: sixteen
I don't remember getting in the car, nor do I remember walking down at the airport as if in a daze I found myself sitting on the flight way back home.
My world seems to be crashing down on me with a single piece of paper, I always thought God was punishing me for something I had done when I lost Dimitri that night at the accident but the bigger punishment was to face the person I thought I had lost forever only to lose him differently, again.
Engrossed in my thoughts I didn't see the flight attendant trying to get my attention, "huh?" I ask trying to regain complete consciousness
"Ma'am, we have landed, " She said with a forced smile, I nod my head and get up carrying my handbag because that's the only luggage they found on me when they caught us.
"Thanks," I say before departing, I walk out of the airport after all the checking done and hail a cab, going straight to my house the one I shared with Dimitri/Massimo.
On unlocking the door, a wave of loneliness washes down to me but I have run out of tears. I sat down on the couch and just stay like that for a couple of hours, no movement, nothing. finally, after gathering up some courage, I go to my room and start packing. I know it might seem different from an outsider's point of view but I'm no longer a part of the Price family so, no reason for me to be here. as I reached a certain box behind the shoe compartment it spiked my curiosity. I pulled a large size wooden box and dragged it a bit on the marble floor.
When I opened the box tears blurred my vision, It's my wedding dress along with everything I wore on that day, I pulled it out and the beautiful white floor-length dress was as same as the day I wore it five years ago.
With a heavy heart, I packed everything I owned and left the rest, I was conflicted with what to do with the wedding dress, and an idea popped in my head. I placed as many boxes as I could fit in my car apart from the wooden box which sat on my passenger seat and drove off to the last place I wanted to be.
The Price Mansion.
