Chapter 7
It's been a month since Gabriella and Troy found Adam in her flat. And they both moved out into a two bed apartment closer to work. Higher rent then the last place so with both of them they can afford it. They like living together, since they didn't sleep in the same apartment in the old place-bar when Troy came back from business and Gabriella was ill.
It wasn't much of a change. The only person who hated it was Gabriella's father and mother. They were outraged that Gabriella had decided this. Actually they were outraged about her anyway. She wasn't a lawyer in the family business- whole family are lawyers, so doesn't have a nice husband-like her two sisters- or 3 cute children and a dog-like her two sisters or still live within 5 miles of their parents house-like her two sisters.
Instead she is a journalist, she has no husband just a row of bad relationships with unstable guys her parents some how find out about. No children, no pets and she lives in New York. I guess you could call her the family rebel. She hates her parents and how they controlled her and her sisters during their childhood and their teen years. She hated it. She hates how they still control her sisters and how they try to control her.
"You married yet?" "Come home" "Why didn't you become a lawyer"
Now after moving in with Troy and she skyped her parents to tell them she had moved. And had to tell even though was two bedrooms they were both accompanied they couldn't come visit. Yes her flat mate was male. (Because Troy walked behind her in his boxers) No she wasn't sleeping with. She wouldn't come home. They had, had the biggest argument ever. She had sworn and shouted and broke down about how much she hated their lifestyle. Now a week later there weren't talking to her. She had nightmares every night about her family about her being one of them. Every night she woke screaming that she wasn't and Troy would walk into her room and wrap her in his arms and they would both drift off to sleep. Troy had started sleeping in her bed, to ward of the nightmares so they could both get some decent sleep.
But they couldn't continue like that.
But she wouldn't back down until they did. So Troy continued to sleep in her bed. And they grew used to it. But her parents still needed to phone her.
But they wouldn't back down and neither would she. They were all stubborn and Gabriella had inherited that.
So it was who would break first.
