Rebirth of the Broken Luna A Second Chance at Luna's Heart novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131

OLLIE

:)))

I kept my eyes on my toy cars that I was with,rolling them across the carpet in circles that didn’t really mean anything.

The sound of their tiny wheels on the floor was better than listening to Mommy try to talk to me again. She’d been doing that a lot

since I woke up feeling better, after those packages came with Daddy’s smell on them.

The clothes and toys had made me feel safe for the first time since we left home, but they also made me miss Daddy even more. It

made me want to go back home and hug him.

His scent was all over my favorite stuffed wolf and the shirts Thorne had sent, and it reminded me that he wasn’t here. That we’d left

him standing in the rain, all alone.

“Ollie, sweetheart,” Mommy said from where she was sitting on the couch. “Can we please talk?”

I didn’t look up from my cars as I didn’t want to talk to her at the moment. “I’m playing.”

“I know you are playing, but I think we should talk about what happened back then. About why we had to leave home.”

I made my red car crash into my blue car, sending them both spinning across the floor as I sulked, mumbling underneath my breath.

“I don’t want to talk. I want to go home.”

“Baby, we can’t go home right now,” Mommy said, and I could hear the sadness in her voice as she took a deep breath as if she wanted to pull herself together and continued speaking.

“Remember what I told you? Daddy doesn’t-*

‘Daddy loves us!” I shouted, finally looking at her with angry eyes filled with tears that threatened to fall.

‘He does love us! He came after us and we left him!”

Mommy’s face looked tired and sad, but I didn’t care about that at the moment. If she was hurting, then so was I and so was Daddy and she chose to leave without giving me a real reason. She was wrong about Daddy. He did love us.

Sometimes he got confused and dizzy and couldn’t think straight or forget about what he wanted to do, but that wasn’t his fault.

There was something wrong that made him forget how much he loved us, but deep down, I knew he does love us.

“Ollie, I know this is hard to understand,” Mommy said, moving to sit on the floor next to me, not touching me yet but her hands were hovering close to me.

Chapter 131

“But Daddy has Sophia and Riley now. He chose them over us.”

“No! I pushed my cars away and stood up, my hands clenched into fists.

“That’s not true! Daddy gets confused sometimes, but he loves us! He was chasing our car, Mommy! He was trying to catch us!”

“He was angry that we left without permission,” Mommy said gently, trying to calm me down as she continued speaking, trying to

convince me that she knew better. “That’s different from wanting us back.”

I wanted to scream at her, because she was sounding ridiculous at the moment. Why couldn’t she understand? I remembered the look in Daddy’s eyes when we drove away. It wasn’t anger that was present there, it was pain. It was the same look he got sometimes when he’d stare at nothing for a long time, like he was trying to remember something important.

“I want to go home,” I said again, refusing to tell her all this. She never did listen to me, insisting that she was right.

I sat back down on the ground and grabbed my cars.

“This isn’t an adventure anymore. I want to see Daddy.”

“Sweetheart-”

“I don’t want an adventure!” I interrupted, throwing one of my cars across the room. It hit the wall with a loud noise and fell on the

groun.
