It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1509

"That's good. You know, you are not the same girl you once were. You have developed a different identity now. So, you should start thinking twice before you act. You should consider if you should do something, or not." Daisy had been just like Michelle, when she was her age. She was a wild one too, and she had struggled a lot to get the things she wanted. Besides, just like Michelle, she had gotten married at a very young age, and didn't gain the love she had so badly wanted from her husband. They were so alike. But at the same time, they were also very different. Daisy had, in the end, finally received the love she had always wanted. Now, she had a loving husband, a great son, and a blooming career. All her hard work had paid off; she was now happy with her life. Michelle, on the other hand, was still struggling with her marriage, and her future career. She really hoped that Michelle would, like her, succeed in the end, and get the love she craved from her husband Luke. She knew that Luke was not a bad guy, and Michelle was also a good girl. They were just struggling with unresolved feelings and misunderstandings. She had a feeling that they could eventually solve the problems between them, and be happy together.

"Yeah, now I know. Thank you, Daisy. I wouldn't have known what to do without your guidance." Michelle was being honest. She was truly grateful for Daisy's friendship. She was glad that Daisy was willing to teach her how to achieve her goals. To be honest, she had already become aware of what Daisy was trying to tell her. If not for this insight, she would have already made things worse. She had become more mature than she was before. No longer the childish and quick-tempered girl she once was; she could now let go of people who insulted her.

"Pfft. No need to be so polite to me. We are family now. By the way, how are the things between you and Luke now?" To be honest, Daisy had hesitated before asking this sensitive question. But after a few seconds' pause, she still asked. She was curious, this was true; but, she was also worried about them. She wanted to know if there was anyway in which she could help them.

"I am not sure what to tell you, or myself. Every time I think that there might be a glimmer of hope for us, it always turns out to be my wishful thinking. I don't know what to think anymore. I have no idea where we stand right now. Maybe I thought that things would be easy when I first got married. Now, I am the one paying the price. Things are not under my control anymore." Michelle laughed at herself bitterly. The relationship between her and Luke was really bizarre right now. They were not behaving like a married couple at all. One could rather call them friends, or even acquaintances at most. They didn't talk much. Every time they met, they just communicated with awkward nods. Michelle was slowly becoming more and more unsure of how to behave around Luke. Yes, they had enjoyed some special moments, in Michelle's opinion. Sometimes they had shared a brief, but rare, special connect between them. But maybe this was just her wishful thinking? Those moments, however didn't lead anywhere.

"Just give yourselves time. Love is something magical, this I can't deny. All men and women want it. But at the same time, it is hard to get. Michelle, you can't keep giving and getting nothing in return. If you are tired, just change the way you live! Don't consider him the only thing that matters in your life. Focus on other things. Maybe you will become happier than you are right now. Besides, Luke might come around when you are not revolving around him. You could both be nicely surprised." All men were like this; they just took things for granted. They didn't miss the water, till the well ran dry. The easier they got the things they wanted in life, the less they tended to cherish them. But once you didn't pay any attention to them, they immediately became uncomfortable and would begin chasing after you.

"In fact, I have recently been trying to get my mind off of him. I should let him go. I can no longer treat him like the center in my life. I have really been trying. I even started going to school to learn how to draw. But still, there is always this empty feeling inside my heart no matter what I do. My heart hurts more than usual. Daisy, what should I do? I really don't know what to do anymore. Do you think that I can get over him one day? Or will I be like this for the rest of my life?" Michelle stared at Daisy with a distant look on her face, her eyes confused. The more she told herself that she should get over Luke, and get on with her life without him, the more she kept thinking about this cold and cruel man who wasn't willing to love her. It seemed that she was a prisoner to her love for a man who would never give her a chance. She didn't stand a chance in this marriage.

"That's normal. You are in love with him. It's bound to hurt sometimes. You just need to be patient and wait. I am sure that you will get what you want one day." Daisy gently pulled Michelle into her arms, comforting her with a hug. Her heart ached for Michelle, she knew how painful it could be, trapped in an unrequited love. After all, she had been through the same thing. But she had not been as lucky as Michelle at the time. She didn't have anyone who could tell her the same things she was telling Michelle now. Nobody was there to comfort her and offer her advice.
