The Queen Maker - Chapter 7 All Alone

“You are too late Amelia, he hung in there waiting for you but you didn’t even pick our calls. He so wanted to meet you but you being as irresponsible as always couldn’t see him last time. He is no more now you can enjoy all you want.” Liam chided her cruelly.

Amelia’s knees gave way and she fell on ground crying.Ryan couldn’t see her being insulted by anyone. ” She loved her grandpaa more than you can imagine. Who gave you any right to judge or scold her? I dare you to talk to her like that again” Ryan said through gritted teeth. Liam just ignored them and went to make funeral arrangements.

Amy was sitting on ground, stream of tears rolling down her face. Ryan didn’t know how to comfort her she had just lost the only family she had. He wanted to take all the pain from her life as he couldn’t see her crying but felt powerless to do anything. He gently hugged her and let her cry on his shoulders.

They both went to see her grandfather last time. Amy saw her grandfather lying lifeless.

She stopped crying and became unusually quite. Ryan saw her weird expressions and was perplexed. ” Say something Amy, bid your grandfather goodbye” Ryan urged. But Amy was just looking at her grandpa. She looked so lost and all alone that Ryan’s heart ached for her.
