Opening my eyes, feeling the kink in my neck muscles looking around not full aware when my eyes go to the small body on the bed, she was a bloody mess, she hand cuts and bruises all over her forearms, she was so thin, Sky was her own worst enemy right now.
Standing up and moving around, looking out of the window this place was horrible, there was no safety measures, there was water stains down the walls and it smelled like death, and loss. It had been a long night Sky had been fighting nightmares all night images of what she saw the night of the explosion, to say it was bad is a understatement, she lost the connection to all of her family one by one, first Ramiel, then her daughter, and last was Lass.
By the time I got to them it was to late, I could not save any of them all I could do was hold back my daughter from running in to the fire herself. She fought me so hard, and that was the last time I held my child until last night, looking at her chest as it rose up and down, she didn’t even look relaxed in her sleep.
I remember walking back in to there house was hard, nothing had been touched it look eerie, clothes still scattered on the bedroom floor, shit kickers nicely lined up, the bed and sheets still looked like someone had left in a hurry, Ali’s room still looked prefect and bed made everything in its place.
Sky never attempted to go back there she just went off the radar, Ramiels room had computers everywhere , music posters and his clothes scattered around the room. In the
kitchen there was still empty cups on the counter and sink, Sky’s friend had come and grabbed the dog, but other then that everyone just agreed to leave the place in piece, till sky was ready no one knew if she ever would be.
I knew I had to tell sky about Ali, but I needed her mind in a better frame of mind and right now she was losing her will to live, to fight and to even care. Telling her about Ali would help but at what cost to Ali?
Walking in to the living room when, I see the recorder and the envelope adressed me, picking up the recorder and hitting rewind and then play, I hear Sky’s voice and she is talking about her family, my breath hitches when I hear the wobble of her voice, then I here fuck it and it stops.
I saw her bags in the corner, she was getting ready for her trip back to the gravesite she did it last year and I had to wonder if she would go to the house this year. Hearing moaning and groans and then earth shattering scream from her room, I run back to the room and see sky kicking and trying to hit something, as she screams “NO! ”
“Shit” going over I restrain her and force her mind to sleep again, feeling her body go like dead weight, I release her arms, as I see tears making tracks down her face, how do you help someone so broken? I
look over her body her shirt had moved up and I saw her mating tattoo, lifting the shirt a bit more I see the signs of it fading, pulling the shirt down again, wiping away the tears on her face.
It was time to push Ali more, and get her memories flowing again cause, I felt I was on a time limit and my daughter was a ticking time bomb ready to go off, and that would not be good with anyone involved and I was afraid she would try something stupid and try and end her own life, in a fight.
Here a ting, I see her phone light up, grabbing it from the bedside table I see a Txt:: Sky still not heard from you, we need to talk ?:: it was from Sydney.
Maybe it was time to pay Syd a visit see what she was doing for Sky, first I had to check on Ali, time to introduce myself again.
