Trudy: Life and Love after Loss
Chapter Five
Amber walked back inside of the room where Jay was and he looked up at her. Amber just stared at him for a while holding Jayson and then she smiled.
"Well?" said Jay "She said yes." Said Amber sitting down next to him "She said she will give
us her blessing but she may not come to the wedding."
"I wouldn't expect her to be." Said Jay
"I also made her Jayson's Godmother." Said Amber and Jay looked up at her
"Well that was nice." Said Jay
"Yeah." Said Amber who looked a bit uneasy
"What is it?' jay asked
"I just can't help but feel sorry for Trudy." Amber stated "First she lost her parents, then Martin and Bray and now you. I'm not sure her heart can
take anymore losses."
Jay was silent.
"She needs someone to help her through this transition." Said Amber "We are
leaving to a new place and she will be alone. She was alone through her
pregnancy and she had to raise Brady on her own."
"Trudy has been through a lot yes but I thank she's strong enough to get
through it." Said Jay standing up
"Where are you going?" Amber asked
"I'm going to tell everyone the good news." Said Jay
"And before I even give you an answer?" said Amber
"What, you're turning me down?" Jay asked
"No, but you didn't give me a chance to answer, and you also did not ask me
properly." Said Amber taking Jayson from his arms.
"Clever girl." Said Jay and he bent down on one knee and took Amber's free
hand in his.
"Amber, will you do me the honor of being my bride?" Jay asked
"Yes." Said Amber 'It would be my honor to marry you." Said Amber and she
pulled Jay up and kissed him softly on the lips.
"Now can I tell everyone?" Jay asked
"Yes." Said Amber standing up
Amber with Jayson in her arms and Jay walked on to the top deck and Amber
cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.
"Hello everyone, Jay and I have an announcement to make." Said Amber and everyone turned around to watch them. Everyone except Trudy who continued
to look towards the water.
"Jay has just asked me to marry him." Said Amber
"And Amber has kindly accepted." Said Jay There was a silence and then everyone applauded and cheered, even people
who didn't know them.
"Congratulations." Said Salene "I hope you three will be happy together."
As the words left Salene's mouth Trudy felt a gut wrenching pain in her
stomach and then she cried out and collapsed onto the floor.
