Lonely Bride

I have never left Bella with anyone except Natalia and Simi. I don’t know whether I can trust Alvera with Bella.

She looked nice and was very reliable, so Sean must have kept her in the house. I still need to ask Bella what she thinks and whether she is comfortable.

“Bella darling, I have to go out to get something. Can you be with Alvera for some time?” I asked, looking at Bella.

“Sure Mommy.” She again got busy with her food, so it’s clear to me that Bella trusts her and will be comfortable with her.

So, I walked towards my room to get my bag and walked out and noticed Nora was standing at the car, and the moment he noticed my presence, he opened the door for me after nodding towards me.

I replied with a small smile and settled myself in it, and after a few seconds, we were off to a place I don’t know yet.

But I believe Sean has already instructed Nora, so he will take the place I need to be so I don’t have to worry about anything. Hence, my whole concentration was on the road. The beautiful road where I have spent a good amount of time in my life

We reached the exclusive-looking boutique, and Nora opened the door for me, and we walked out after giving her the key to wellness. Nora stood at the gate inside the boutique to give me some privacy while I chose the dress. I am more than glad about this.

I walk ahead and look for dresses. There are so many beautiful dresses I like; however, my eyes were searching for a particular dress, ‘Or maybe a particular color. My inner self mocked me while I ignored her graciously.

Finally, my eyes got stuck on a beautiful cherry red bodycon dress.

It has a deep princess cut line, and I instantly like that and walk towards the trial room with the help of a salesgirl with some more dresses I like today. I would be lying if I said this store has some of the most trendy and classy stuff.

The dress fits perfectly, and now nothing can stop me from buying it. After a long time, I am buying something like this, so I have bought all the dresses I like today.

After getting out of the trial room, the sales girls asked me to check out some accessories and shoes if I liked them, and I liked them as I needed them badly as I had nothing, so I was more than happy to follow her.

Again, I took all the shoes and accessories I like to match with all the dresses I am going to buy, and now it comes to the lingerie. I just pass that section but stop to check it out once just to see what they have, and to be honest, they have the stuff that can push any man to go on his knees.

Again, my shopping spree did not stop here, and I ended up buying things I like.

‘No, no-no, you don’t have to think if you want to show anything to Sean. I am buying it because I genuinely like it.’ Before my inner self mocked me, I informed her of my thoughts while rolling my eyes.

I even got a few dresses for Bella, and there was a cute section of kids in the store that I could not control, so I ended up buying a few dresses for her too.

I gave all the stuff to the sales assistant, and the happiness I saw in her eyes was worth watching. I believe she must be getting a good amount of incentive this month, the way I shop today.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

I reached the billing counter, where Nora was already waiting for me, and I knew very well why, but before he did anything, I gave my card to the sales assistant.

“Mam, don’t worry about the bill.” He said this to me and looked at the sales assistant. Pack everything that Mam has.” He said that and gave her a card.

I notice a black card, and I know very well who it belongs to, but well, me being me,

“Thanks, but I can shop for myself, Nora.” I took the card from the girl’s hand and handed my black card to her.

Anyway, it’s been a long time since I’ve used my card, so I wanted to use some of my money on myself.

“But Mam” Nora tried to say something, but I gave him a glare of Shut up, we are at the store, and let’s not argue here, so he just nodded and stood by my side obediently.

After paying the bill, we walk out and settle ourselves in the car to go back to Sean’s house. But then something struck my mind, and I said, “Nora, can you please take me to Marble Cemetery, please?”

“Sure mam.” And with no delay, he drove the car towards the place I wanted to be.

I felt happiness in my heart the moment I stopped, and I walked down and padded towards the inside.

I turned around when I noticed Nora walking behind me.

“Nora, I would like to have some alone time, if you don’t mind.” I knew for a fact that I could get emotional here, and I didn’t want him to see that.

“I understand, ma’am, but again, I have strict orders.” But don’t worry, I will be at a safe distance without invading your privacy.” He replied politely while surveying the surroundings, and I know for a fact that I am also bound by orders, so I nod and walk ahead.

After some time, I did not feel his presence behind me, but I knew he must be around. However, I appreciate that he is invisible to my eyes.

I smiled the moment I reached my destination and sat on my knees and said, “Hey Granny, how have you been?” I said this while cleaning the grass around the tomb.

“I know you must be angry at me. I broke our ritual of seeing you on your birthday, but this time you know my reason.” I said it with a small, sad smile on my face.

‘I wanted to stay with a peaceful nanny. I wanted to stay away from Sean, so I stayed away from you, too. I thought he might search for me, but look at how stupid I was.

He wasn’t searching for me, even though he didn’t even bother to know where I am or what I am doing, I guess.’ I told her while tilting my lip to my right.

‘But surprise, surprise, he is back in my life again. Why? Well, I don’t even know. And I am so fed up. I have given all my properties to him, so why he is behind my life, I can’t understand.’ I complain while shaking my head tirelessly.

“Anyway, forget about me. You know I have a beautiful daughter, and her name is Bella. Oh my god, Granny, you’re going to be all gaga when you meet her. She is such a bundle of joy. And she brings so much fun to my life. I just love her.” I giggled, thinking about her.

“You know what? I will soon come here with her,” I said, clapping my hands together in excitement.

‘But now I guess I think I should leave; I need to see how Bella is doing, as it’s the first time I have left her alone with someone.’ I got up and bid my goodbyes to Granny and started walking out, but I stopped looking at the figure.
