Chapter 46

Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 46 – Getting out of the car, my mothers voice reaches my

ears. “She is gone, she did another runner. I rang the police station and they said she left when

someone bailed her out” My mother says. The other rear door of the car opens and my mother looks

taken aback by the shock evident on her face when she saw Taylor hop out of the car.

“Debbie I need to speak to you please” Cyrus says and she looks at him.

“About what, Taylor you look”- She doesn’t finish shaking her head. Taylor rushed over to her and

hugged her before scop[ping up Maya. Maya hugged her mother excitedly at having her attention and I Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

swallowed the lump in my throat that had formed. Everyone walks inside and I am overwhelmed with

knowing soon this will no longer be home.

That I won’t see Maya everyday or my mother. Won’t be the one she excitedly runs to anymore and

that thought hurt more than I thought it would. I have had custody of Maya since just before her 3rd

birthday, in a lot of ways she felt like she was my daughter and it upset me a little with how she would

easily just accept her mother back in her life without giving me a second thought. I feel Eli’s hand on

my lower back making me look at him. Cyrus walks off with my mother toward the kitchen and Taylor

walks into the living room with Maya. Maya showed her mother her painting she did.

“Can we stay at your place?” I whisper to Eli. He seemed a little shocked, but everything was moving

too quickly and I was finding it overwhelming watching my family finally coming back together while l

was being pushed out.

“You okay?” He asks, kissing my cheek and pulling me to him.

I walk off going to retrieve some clothes. When I came back downstairs Eli was no longer talking to my

mother and Maya and Taylor were still playing in the living room. Walking over to the table grabbing

Eli’s keys off it before grabbing my bag.

“Addie everything okay?” My mother asks.

“Yes mum, I’m just not staying here tonight” I tell her, kissing her cheek and walking down the hall. I

stop looking in the living room at my sister and Maya. TRaylor looks up and smiles. I smile back at her

before reaching into my handbag. I walk over to her reaching in my handbag and retrieving my car

keys.

“Here you can keep it” I tell her and she takes the keys from hand looking at them.

“Don’t you need them?” She asks looking up at me.

“No you can have it I won’t be here much longer” I tell her and she nods and I realise Cyrus had

already told her I was moving because she didn’t seem shocked at my leaving. If only she knew the

sacrifice I just made for her, if she wasn’t my sister and Maya mother I never would have agreed, but I

knew I made the right decision by how happy Maya looks.

I get up sending Maya a wink before turning to leave Eli and Cyrus watching from the hallway when

Maya runs over grabbing my legs and hugging me. I pick her up, give her a squeeze and k**s her hair.

“Thanks Ada” She says and I feel a tear slip down my cheek at her words. and I squeeze my eyes shut.

Maya was mature beyond her years and understood her mother staying meant I was leaving. Placing

her back on her feet, I k**s her head and she runs back to her mother. I walk outside heading to Eli’s

car and unlock it before hopping in. They take a few minutes to come out and I drop Eli’s keys on his

seat before resting my head against the window waiting for them to come out.

When they do they hop in the car and Cyrus starts driving toward their place. The trip there was silent

and they left me to my thoughts. I was about to throw everything I had built here away for them and for

my sister and now with the days ticking down it was starting to get to me. Soya I will know nobody,

have no family to fall back on. No friends, nothing familiar and will be heavily relying on them. I didn’t

like someone having that sort of control, I didn’t like knowing that leaving here I would be giving myself

to them completely, that they would basically own me and that thought didn’t sit well with me.

Would they really let me visit my family, or would I be shut off and forgotten about? It may sound selfish

but I was sick of being the only one to make sacrifices.

Pulling up on the driveway out the front, the lights were off and darkness swallowed the house. Nothing

was out here and it was a little eerie walking to the house. Cyrus opens the door before flicking lights

on as he walks through the house. I follow him into the kitchen and sit at one of the stools at the island

bench.

“Hungry?” Eli asks and I shrug.

“A little” I tell him and he nods. I watch as he starts rummaging through the pantry.

“Where is your bathroom?” I ask looking around the open room.

“There is one down the hall or one in the bedroom, the main one has a bath in it, or there is a shower

only in the bedroom” Cyrus says and I nod walking to what I assumed is the bedroom. I was correct. It

was a bedroom, a huge king bed in the middle of the room with a grey duvet. Mahogany furniture and a

big white fluffy rug sat on the floor. I also notice a fireplace in the corner along one wall and two doors

on the other wall. Walking past the first door and I notice one is a walk-in closet and the other is the

bathroom. I pushed the door open, the bathroom was bigger than our main one at home. All grey tile

and black finishings, the shower had no screen, only a drain and two shower heads the shower took up

most of one wall. Cyrus walks in handing me a white fluffy towel before walking out. I turn the water on

letting it heat up while I strip my clothes off. I hop in wetting my hair when I see the door open and

Cyrus walks in pulling his shirt off over his head.
