As my parents step out of the car, I clench my fists, wondering why they’ve come here now.
But when I see my mother’s facial expression, she seems worried and just like that, it all makes sense to me. Vanessa must have called them about her current state. Couldn’t she just keep it to herself?
Now I’m stuck here with all of them and won’t be able to get to Carmella. Should I accept this situation and just give her a call? No. There’s something I can do to get away from here.
It takes me a few seconds to figure out so I pace around until finally, I come up with something. This will definitely work.
Quickly, I head down to meet them, going through what I’ll say several times as I take the elevator.
As soon as the elevator reaches the ground floor and opens, even at a distance. I can hear my mother’s concern in her voice as she sits with Vanessa on the couch
My father’s on the other couch, his expression showing similar concern. I can’t help but roll my eyes as I get closer. I can imagine what this would be like if my brother and sister would also show up.
Even when I’m close enough, my parents barely notice me. Their eyes are glued to Vanessa as my mother seems hair. What the hell? She’s not a baby.
Finally, my parents look at me and my father’s so stressed that be loosens his necktie.
“Son, what happened?”
“Father, I already told you it’s nothing. Vanessa says before I can respond.
“But just look at you, my daughter. First, you cut your honeymoon short and now this happened?”

“I was just about to call you both and tell you about this. I guess someone beat me to it.” I say to my parents, glancing at Vanessa with clenched fists behind my back
“We had to rush here when Vanessa called” My mother moves to the edge of the couch so Vanessa can rest her back on her shoulder, leaving the other side of the couch empty.
As much as I don’t want to, I go over to that specific couch and next to Vanessa.
“Son. I hope you follow the instructions Doctor Miller gave you my father says.
“Of course, only the best for her” My lips curve into a fake smile as I gently hold onto both of Vanessa’s legs and let them rest in my lap.
She seems surprised but goes with it. I can’t wait to confront her about this. How dare she do such a thing? Did she know I’d be leaving her to go to Carmella? Is this her way of stopping me from leaving? That’s not happening. I just need to find the right moment to leave.
“Have you had something to eat, dear?” My mother sweetly asks Vanessa.
“I haven’t had anything since we left the island.”
“What? This is unacceptable. You need to eat or drink something now more than ever.”
