Chapter 55
He explained to his mother everything that happened. She agreed to see Belle and Shawn excused himself. Hope got her and Belle a cup of tea and they sat down on the couch to talk.
Hope: So tell me what happened Belle. You can go as slow as you want. Just take your time.
Belle began to explain how things with her dad turned sour and she couldn't stop herself from crying. Hope held her gently and let her cry all the tears that she needed to cry. She tried to comfort Belle when it got tough for her to continue speaking.
Hope: It is all over now. He will never hurt you again.
Belle: Why? Why did he do it? What did I do to deserve that? I was just a little girl. I couldn't protect myself.
Hope: He was evil. People get pleasure in seeing others suffer. You did nothing wrong.
Belle: Then why did he do that to me? Why did he have sex with me over and over? I was too little to even know what sex was but I knew he was hurting me really badly. I knew he shouldn't be doing that to me. I just want to know why!
Hope: Belle sometimes in life there are no good reasons for why things happen. Your father might have been abused as a child and even though that is not an excuse he also drank.
Belle: Do you think I will turn out like my father?
Hope: From what Shawn tells me you are a great mother.
Belle: Thanks for listening Hope.
Hope: Well I want us to talk 3 times a week till the memories are gone.
Belle: Okay Hope thanks again.
Later that evening after dinner everyone decided to head to bed. Zari was out for the night. Shawn was lying in bed in his flannel pajama pants and no shirt waiting for Belle to get out of the bathroom. But came out wearing just one of Shawn's shirts and Shawn knew it would be a long night of torture trying to keep his hands to himself.
Belle crawled into the bed and laid her head on Shawn's chest. She slowly started to rub down his stomach. She knew that they had just gotten back together. But for 6 long months she had dreamed of making love to him.
