ELLICE'S POV
"You know what hon? I can't imagine my life without you. Do you know that? How can I be like this without you? How can I be when I'm drunk? No one will help me." I said as I leaned my head on Nico's shoulder.
Nico is my boyfriend for 3 and a half years.
He laughed a little saying, "I'm used to it hon. I don't have a problem with that. You know what why?"
"Because I love you that much."
"Because you love me that much."
We said together, that's why we both smiled at each other.
"You just don't know, Nico. I'm really really thankful because you came into my life. Even though a lot of people say that I don't deserve you. Still, you're still there. You still haven't given up what we have now. Thank you so much, Hon. Thank you, and I love you. " I said seriously and then hugs him tight.
He caressed my back and speaks at the same time.
"I love you, Ellice, that's why I won't let anyone ruin us, no matter what happens, I will always be here for you," he replied.
"Ellice, Nico, come on, let's eat now. Dinner is ready." my mom calls us.
"Okay, Aunt. We'll go there." Nico replied.
"Let's go, Hon? I'm hungry." he smiled, and then we both stood up going to the kitchen.
After an hour, Nico also went home to their house to take a rest from his work. Nico is working at a clothing company owned by his uncle while I'm working as a real estate agent.
My mom is a single parent because my dad died when I was 7 years old because of an accident at his work, and that was one of the happenings or events that brought trauma to me. Why? Because I saw how my father died.
FLASHBACK
"Ellice! Ellice! Let's go! Maybe something else will happen to us. The fire is getting too big! Let's go! Let's leave this house immediately!" mommy yelled at me as I watched the fire grow or spread around our house.
"W-what's happening, mom? Isn't daddy here yet? Isn't he going home yet to put out the fire?" I innocently asked my mom.
I know daddy was on duty at that time but I know that his job is a firefighter so I think he will come quickly to help us and put out the fire around.
Until mommy and I left the house.
Mommy dragged my left hand while she held a bag.
"Ellice faster!" mommy shouted at me. I don’t know but I was really shaking with fear because of the excessive noise of the people around. People who are also asking for help like us.
Until mommy and I were outside and it didn't take long for the firefighters to arrive.
"Our house ..." that's all I said as I saw the fire continue and spread quickly.
"Eloisa! Ellice!" daddy shouted when he saw mommy and I and are standing outside as he approached us.
I quickly ran to daddy and I didn't know that my tears just flowed.
"Ssshhh ... Don't worry daddy is here, okay? Everything will be alright. Trust me." daddy said as he tries to comfort me.
"Be careful Henry!" mommy shouted when daddy ran together with other firefighters
"Lord, please guide them. I hope they can put out the fire and that no one will be harmed." mommy prayed for them beside me. I can see how much she worried not only for my dad but also for her co-workers.
A few more minutes passed and...
"Sir! Sir! We have a big problem! We're running out of water, Sir." one of daddy's companions shouted because the fire was spreading too fast and as he said, they're running out of water.
Until...
"Henry !!! Be careful !!!" mommy shouted while crying ...
I saw daddy. I saw him climbing out of our house and going through the window of our room but ...
We didn’t expect what happened next.
"Daddy !!!"
"Henry !!!"
