Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen’s POV 

When I reached home, I was surprised to see Cece standing at the front door of my apartment building and waving excitedly.

"Helen…" I thought my eyes were deceiving me.I had to blink several times to make sure it was not an illusion.

"What? Don’t you recognize me?"

Cece flung her arms open, waiting for me to rush to her and receive her warm embrace.I couldn’t believe my eyes.

Still, I dashed towards her and gave her a giant hug.

No wonder she was one of my best friends.

There seemed to be a tangible connection between us.I was just thinking about her on the subway minutes ago, and here she was, in the flesh, right in front of me! Talk about the powers of manifestation! The universe did have a superior intelligence! "Cece, what brings you here?"

"I’m here to see who is bullying you so I can put a stop to it!"

When I heard her words, the raw wounds of the last few days opened up again.

The grief and sadness that I had suppressed, resurfaced and I broke into a food of tears.

Just then a sprightly figure popped out and shouted at the two of us.

"Hey, you two! Come and help me carry these heavy bags.Don’t just stand there and get so emotional.You can go inside and talk once the hard work is done."

It was Lucy.

Obviously! With bags of food in her arms and a carton of beer on the ground, she shouted at us to help her.

We could barely see her face as the food parcels were stacked so high.She was struggling to carry such a heavy load.
