Chapter 8.

Nick's Pov.

"I'm dead inside"

Everything is black for me.

What happened in my life?

Why was the love of my life take away from me.

I can still remember that day.

Flashback

"Noooo Nick stop it!" Beauty started swinging the pillow because I was tickling her.

"Nooo Beauty! You are mine! Only mine!" I caught her and told her.

" Nicky promise you won't leave me" she asked I kissed her forehead and told her.

"Never I won't leave you alone, you are the best thing that has ever happened in my life. I'm so lucky because I have the most beautiful lady in my side as my girl"

End of flashback.

I screamed in terror.

I looked in the mirror with tears rolling down my cheeks, I want to take a knife and kill myself so as to bed this pain.

It really hurts to not sees her, not being able to hold her is killing.

I love her, she's the first best thing that happened to me. I love the way she always looks into my eyes with love, the way she smiles, how she blushes, how she loves, the way she used to kiss me and the way she always takes care of me.

All she ever wanted was a happy family but now there is no family, no happiness and our dreams together as couples are no more.

I fell on the floor.

I still cried for a miracle to happen.

I never cried like how Ive cried since the death of my baby.

A week later.

No miracle happened, it was beauty's burial ceremony today, I wanted to be strong for the remaining sky ladies especially Mrs Sky since the demise of her husband she has struggled to be happy for her kids but now the death of one of her daughter's is having a great effect on her.

As a crying woman for weeks she still always had a smile on her face, she tries not to show the sadness for the sake of her only daughter left. But when you look in her eyes, you'll find them puffed up with deep dark circles showing pain and wounds that can never be healed the loneliness and frustration of life.

Whole I stayed at the Sky's residence, she cried at night so that no one can see her or hear her cry.

Laying the ashes of Beauty's birthday gown to rest in the grave was the hardest cause then I realised that she's gone, my Sunshine is really dead, she's no more.

2 weeks later.

"Nick, open up" my mom yelled from the other side of the door, "please, you can't keep doing this to yourself".

I wiped my tears and trudged to get the door cause I knew my mom wouldn't leave if i didn't.

"Nick" she whispered concerned.

I threw her a faint smile and crawled back to bed. She stepped further and sat at the edge of the bed starting at me.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"I'm fine" I lied. My Sunshine is dead, buried and gone how would I be fine.

" It's been days, it's time you pull yourself together, beauty is gone. Nick you starving and closing up in your room, if she was alive she won't want you to be like this" my mom said.

"But she is not here, she isn't or is she? She left me all alone, leaving me in this misery of a world all by myself" I shouted.

"She left me, I can't feel anything anymore, all i feel in my heart is broken pieces, she was my everything mom, everything" I cried on her shoulder crying my self to sleep as Ive been doing for these few days.

2 days later.

Finally getting our of my bed and room with due to mom's persuasion.

"What if it was a murder" I heard Mrs Kim whispher to my mom as I was coming down our stairs but on sighting me they kept quiet.

I closed my eyes as the back of my throat burner, the taste of bile stuck on my tongue, then I regretted taking up my mom's offer for breakfast, my stomach twisted in knots as I sat on the driving table.

Desperate for a distract while eating I scrolled through my social media, since he has been offline after the death of beauty.

Already my classmates had flooded in feeds with different status updates, I grimaced as I read through the heart felt well- wishes but then I froze when i saw something worse, much worse.

There,  buried in the comments of an Instagram post, was a picture of Beauty smiling in her birthday dress showing off her ring with R.I.P written beside the picture.

Losing my appetite I went upstairs to my room, I stared into the semi darkness of my room due to my closed windows, the light of my phone faintly illuminating the space as Lucas called his phone, as he made out the dark shapes of posters on his wall.

It's time to take his parents offer, he would go and study and be a CEO and take over his father's company.

His mom, he should tell his mom living here without her is chocking he has to change his environment.

What motivation could he possibly have when she's gone with that I lurched out of my bed and went to my parents to tell then my decision.

" Mom, dad I'll like to inform you of my decision" I said as they nodded their head telling me to go on with my words.

" I would love to leave this environment and study so as to take over the company since dad is resigning soon and it will be selfish of me to keep the business stagnant" I said

"Yes, I agree to it honey please it would be preferable" my mom said.

"Okay son, pack up your load and when you are ready to leave tell me so I can arrange the jet" replied my dad

"Thanks mom and dad" I said as I left their study.
