Life After the Storm

I don't waste time feeling sorry for myself any longer. I will allow no one to continue hurting me. I'm finished being this weak person who I created through all my grief. Falling for those that have hurt me, thinking I deserve all the misery because of what has happened to my family.

I have found satisfaction in my own misery, but I need to stop punishing myself. All that has happened has made me seem weak. I am done with all those who have brought me pain. I will no longer allow myself to feel anything for them any longer. They are my enemy, not my friend. I will make them pay for all they have done to me.

Realizing now that I'm going to always miss my family and wish they were here with me. But knowing no matter how hard I wish for them to be here. They are not coming back, they are dead. They want me to excel in my life and be happy. Even though I find it impossible to be happy without them. I am going to have to find a way.

As I am waking up, I know that my body is not fully healed yet because I can't move. As I look around the room, I am surprised when I see Landon. Knowing that he is not supposed to be around me, he's forbidden to visit me. I become angry as he looks at me, I stare at him, I ask him “what the hell are you doing here Landon you shouldn't be here.”

“Lilly I'm sorry for everything I was trying to just do what was right, I didn't want to sacrifice you. I just wanted to protect my people.”

I laugh at him, “protecting your people, so you sacrifice one of them. I followed you, but you just disappointed me and handed me over to my worst fear. You know better than Ivan, you are the same. Get the fuck out of my room and do me a favor, don't ever come back to see me.”

As he tries to talk, I stop him. “I don't want to talk to you, Landon, get out.”

I can see the pain in his eyes as he's walking away from me. He should endure pain. I wish he could feel the same pain that Ivan made me feel. As he ripped a part of me out of my body. They both deserve pain, and they will get the pain they truly deserve from me. I will not kill them, but I will make them pay for all they have done.

Landon helped me heal the rest of the way. I get up from the bed as I hear the bed alarm go off, I take it and I rip it out the wall. As I walk over to my door, I lock it To make sure they can't get in, I tear off the
