#Jahr [ R&R Chronicles II ] Part Nine *Six Years Later* Riley found herself back in her beloved childhood city. Happiness was short lived as everywhere she turned a place, person, thing would remind her of Rhys. So many memories filtered through her every waking thought. She still had not healed properly since she had left almost six years ago. She laughed as she sat at the lights and a familiar car pulled up next to her. She remembered one night cruising around with Rhys battling each other trying to rap along to Notorious BIG - Juicy. Now Im in lime light cause I rhyme tight! Standing at her favourite bakery ordering an infamous steak & pie, Riley laughed as the little girl in her arms giggled and squealed. She felt someone watching them. Baby, my arms are sore now. We buy you chocolate donut then go home k? The little girl nodded and squeezed Rileys hand. Fank yeeew! Wuv yewww!! Riley laughed and waited to be served. A cold air passed through the store making Riley shiver. She still couldnt shake off the uneasy feeling that someone was watching her. As she collected their order she could hear a little girl giggling. Riley turned. She watched as Rhys played & laughed with her. She stood speechless, her hands starting to sweat, face flushed with heat. She was surprised at how comfortable the little girl was with him. Baby, lets go. Nooooooo! I wanna go wif unko Weeesey!! Weesey? Riley snorted. No baby. We have to go home now!! Papas taking you out tonight remember?? The little girl wriggled her way out Rhys arms and ran for the car pulling at Rileys skirt to hurry up. As Riley let herself be dragged to the car by a 5 year old she felt a firm grip holding her arm. Riley... ------ Although it had been six years the pain was still as raw and real as if it were just yesterday it all happened. I pulled my hand out of his grip as If his touch burned me. If only he knew how much I hated him!! His eyes caught me by surprise, sincere regret. The crinkle in his forehead almost made me give in. The tension sliced through. My body betraying me yearning for his touch. For babys sake I ignored Rhys and jumped in the car. My pride would not let me put my guard down. As I drove out of the car park my niece held my hand. I didnt realise I had tears rolling down my face. I held my babys hand and kept driving. ---------- Rhys sat deep in thought. Did she feel it too? Her skin was still as smooth and warm as he remembered. I couldnt stop thinking about Riley. She still looked as beautiful as she did that night we first met. But who was the little girl? She looked about five. If Im right she could be mine. Was Riley that vindictive she would keep my child a secret from me? Son, o le a? Ua e mai? (son, whats is it? Are you sick?) I didnt realise how tight i had my fists clenched. My heart still beat for Riley. Always. ---------
