INTERTWINED
CHAPTER -3
A/N : The story will have a Time Jump very soon, I wanted to establish their backgrounds first, so that when the girls meet, they actions are justified and the clear contradiction in their respect lives is deliberate, so give the true essence to the story.
Also, thank you for your reviews, follow and favs, they mean so much, so please keep them coming. They are a great motivation.
"Fear is confusing, because you don't know what you are afraid of more, the occurrence of the unknown or knowing what exactly is going to get unfold."
Half an hour, 30 minutes, 1800 seconds that much it took Callie to realize that she is standing alone in the front porch of her house in a complete daze. She couldn't believe on what has actually happened with her, she was confused, Had her parents actually disowned her?, Had her father actually said those words?, what exactly do you mean by get out?, Does it mean like out from the house?, or get out of the fact she liked women? weren't parent suppose to love their child unconditionally?, Wasn't her father meant to catch her every time?.
Her inner ramblings were out to halt when she felt the front door open and then she saw her mother. Mother, Of Course!, Callie thanked the Lord above, her Mom, was here to take her back in, she felt slightly guilty of the fact that she believed that it would have been her mother who would have had a hard time adjusting to the fact, that their daughter was in fact lesbian!, but as it's always said never ever doubt the power of a mother's love.
Callie felt ecstatic , she moved her steps in excitement towards her Madre but stopped in her tracks when she saw her bringing her luggage and suitcase which was packed for to be taken to Stanford and she was holding an envelope as well.
Lucia Torres was torn after looking at her younger daughter so helpless, she wanted to reach out and scoop her into arms and vanish all the anguish and pain from her Calliope, she stood at the door for few minutes and then carefully approached Callie.
She put the luggage aside and gave her the envelope and took a few steps back, she wanted to say things, wanted to somehow ease the situation, being a world class lawyer she has never felt so helpless before, she knew, she is suppose to say something, but at that moment nothing could defer the hurt that was etched into the beautiful features of her daughter, so she turned completely and went inside the house.
For the second time that day, Callie felt she had lost everything, all over again. She carefully looked into the envelope that was handed to her, it contained her visa, passport and all other necessary documents and a small brown paper that she assumed to be some cash.
And then what engulfed her next was pure fear, what was she suppose to do with all this?, she won't be able to survive in United States all alone and in rush of all this, she almost pressed the door bell, to tell her parents, to ask for their forgiveness, how she has magically become straight, but she stopped, she was a Torres after all, she wont go down without a fight. Medical school was her dream since childhood and she will go to heights to achieve that. With that thought in mind, she picked up her luggage and took her first steps towards her new journey, she might be alone,but she had faith.
After leaving the Torres property, she couldn't decide where she is suppose to spend her last two days in Spain, she could always go to her friends house, but how would she explain her situation, will her friends accept her for who she is?, or worst what if, they also get kicked out for being friends with her?.
The faith that she held onto a few minutes before, was slowly leaving her body, But suddenly, she knew where she will go, she lightly laughed in the irony of the situation, it's the fear of God that they put to straighten things out of Gays, But it is in his place, under his roof, where there is no judgement at all.
She stopped a Taxi, down the road and gave him the address to Convento de Santa Teresa de Jesu's .
Arizona Robbins had already sensed a presence of some foreign body in her room, even before she had opened her eyes and she was not going to get off from the bed anytime soon, mainly because of two things, A. She would be leaving her hometown today later in the evening for Yale, so she has earned the right to sleep in and B. In all sense of everything that's good, it certainly was way too early to be waking up, especially when you are still two day sore from your first break -up.
But then suddenly a whole bucket of ice cold water was splashed on her, she was drenched and waking up and not at all in a good mood.
"What the hell?" Arizona, in her full might shrieked those words.
"Well rise and shine Dimples, it's a Marine's order", there stood a very handsome, tall blue eyed blond men, Timothy Robbins in all his prime form.
Arizona shrieked again but this time it was from pure surprise and happiness, her brother was here and most importantly he had made it safe back home. She all the way jumped onto her brother, wrapping him in a fierce hug.
"Oh. My God Tim!, What are you doing here ?"
"Jesus, Dimples you are soaked , get off me!", Tim replied while slightly pushing her away, he had missed his sister dearly, but there was no way she was spoiling his outfit.
"That's not a response you give to your only sister, who by the way , you are meeting after 6 months" .Arizona said, pouting lightly.
"C' mon Dimples you know, I missed you a lot and you are the reason, I'm here, so please give me your super magical smile, pretty please?" Tim requested.
Arizona's Dimples were in full force now, there is no way she could ever stay mad on her elder brother.
"You are forgiven now, so what do you mean by I'm the reason for your visit home?"
Timothy shaking his head slightly, said, "Well sis you are off to Yale today, and there was no way I was going to miss your see off!, I am so proud of you Arizona."
"Aww Tim, I am glad you are here and I love you so much my brother", Arizona's eyes had now glistened slightly.
Timothy hugged her sister and gave a kiss on her forehead " I love you too, my little angel, now go change and head down to kitchen cause it has been 6 months of desert food for me."
Arizona laughed lightly and said, "Go ahead, I'll be down in 10."
