Redeem Me (Say Something Book 4) (6 page)

Chapter Twelve

Janet decided she wanted Sunshine’s so we had the proper papers drawn up and I signed it over to her. I love going in and seeing all the new things she has done with it and hearing all the new plans that she has. She still calls me “my child” and begs me each day to come work for her.

“My child, do you miss it?” she asks sliding my plate in front of me.

I love that she kept it the way it was before they came in and destroyed it.

“I am loving being at home. I think Trevor is loving it too.”

“I am sure he is. Know that your job here is always available.”

She leans in and kisses my cheek and walks away leaving me to my food. Things have been a lot better in the weeks that I have started staying home. The men who wanted to scare and hurt me are spending a very long time in jail for old charges and present ones. It will be a very long time before they are able to walk around free again.

That does a lot to comfort me. Joslynn is enjoying being a stay at home mom. Lil man has started to walk and saying mommy all the time. Trevor and I have talked about trying again but right now I want to find myself in life.

I finish my breakfast and leave a tip for Janet. She smiles and waves as I walk out the door. I walk out with my head high and know that I have not given up. I have not made myself look like a coward. Being a stay at home wife is what I was made to do.

When I walk in the front door all the lights are off and the walls are lined with candles. I walk around the kitchen and follow the line of candles up the stairs and to our bedroom. Trevor is laying on the bed naked smiling. The candle light shining on his body casts shadows.

He doesn’t move or say a word he watches me as I walk around the room looking at the walls. On each wall is a piece of paper with something written on it – how much he loves me and how beautiful I am. I turn back to the bed with happy tears in my eyes and Trevor sits up on the bed.

“Take them off.” He motions to my clothes and I slide them off letting them fall to the floor.

I crawl on the bed and Trevor spends the night showing me all the ways each of the letters on the walls are true and so much more. I have never been so in love in all my life. I know that the man in front of me is the man I am supposed to spend the rest of my life with. I may not have all that I thought I would have by now but I have more than I could ever ask for and that is enough for me. Trevor has given me life, given me a reason to live. He has Redeemed Me.
