Be Your Own Spring novel Chapter 80

"Zelli? Why are you crying love? Iam sorry." Kezr said immediately wrapping his arms around my waist and pulled my head into his neck, rocking us back and forth.

Warmth and fragrance engulfed me and I hugged him tighter, letting my tears fall into his neck.

I didn't reply him.

I didn't even have the energy to ask him what he was sorry for.

He pulled my head out of his neck, and Iam already missing his warmth.

He looked at me and wiped my tears away, kissing them.

"Zella, tell me?" He asked in a stern yet soft voice.

I smiled at him and pushed myself closer towards him-if that was even possible-and placed my head in his neck.

My favorite place to be.

"I miss them, K"

Kezr's eyes widened knowing what Iam talking about.

"I miss how my mom used to kiss my forehead before I go to school.... My dad. How he used to tell me he's proud of me. How he used to cheer me up even for the littlest achievements I made.... I miss it all, K. So much."

He kissed my cheek letting his soft lips linger there for a while.

He pushed my head more into his neck and rubbed my back up and down.

"Jones. When they adopted me, I was really happy thinking I'd finally have a family instead of people looking at me back at the orphanage and saying no to my face saying they don't want a troublesome kid."

Kezr just rocked us back and forth, rubbing my back without uttering a word.

"When I was new to the Jones's household, Stephanie was very sweet to me. But as the days went by, they become evil, cruel, morals were forgotten and I was paying for their sins" I started crying remembering how I had no value until a month ago and how I was treated.

"I like your kindness for others, I like your selflessness, I like your innocence.....but you know what I don't like?" I looked down and nodded my head.

"I don't like how you let anybody manipulate you like that, I don't like how people take advantage of you, but it isn't your fault, it's not your fault that this world is too fucked up for an angel like you." I smiled at him and a sob emitted from my lip to which he caressessed my lower lip.

"Rozella you're a charm, a charm that causes me to smile everyday, that causes me to wakeup to what's mine everyday, my wife...mine."

He said and I giggled and kissed his nose.

"I understand that shit, Rozella. And Iam here. Always."

My eyebrows furrowed and I looked at him confused.

How could he possibly understand this all?

"My dad. He died."
