Blemished Love - Season 1 - Episode 59

☆☆

***

After several hours of talking things through with Dane, Melisa was sure she could handle the whole relationship though she admitted it would be hard dealing with him being in a wheel chair since he has refused help concerning prosthetics.

Dane however didn’t want her leaving his side but she had to go in for some other rounds. Dani was the first to congratulate Melisa on getting back with her dad.

Stella called about his parents who were on their way to the hospital.

‘I’ve been looking for you everywhere.’ Tom announced when he finally found his wife.

‘I was hungry and went looking for food but this hospital food sU-Cks Tom.’
‘That’s because it’s meant for patients and you are just pregnant with my adorable J and J.’ Tom said grabbing a seat opposite his wife.

‘Tom, for the last time, my boys won’t be named after your moms.’
‘Sorry Love.’ He muttered.
‘Thank you for your understanding.’ She said focusing on the snack before her.
Tom kept watching her and smiled. ‘Weird place to have a meal.’
‘I was hot in the canteen and needed to be somewhere quiet and serene.’
‘And you choose a hospital’s emergency room.’
‘Yeah, today is Sunday and this place isn’t busy as it used to.’
‘I noticed because of the renovation going on there.’ Tom pointed at the renovation going on at the other side of the building.
‘Do you want some of this?’ Grissel raised up her snack bowl.

Tom smiled and stared. ‘Don’t I love you?’
‘I know you do and please stop giving me weird glances.’
‘I adore you Grissel.’
‘Love what did you do?’ Grissel asked immediately because she knew Tom always become mushy when he has done something wrong.
‘Emmmm, I might have told Dane to stay away from us.’
‘Okay, if you think that was fair I have no problems with it.’ Grissel said reaching out for the water bottle which Tom handed over to her.
‘And you are not mad?’
‘No, besides you said letting you make decisions puts you in control of our marriage as a man.’
‘I remember making that rule but that was because you left then came back and I was confused.’
‘Confused about trusting me right?’ Grissel asked carefully.
‘Yes but I think I want my old marriage back.’ He murmured with his hands flying in the air as if he just gave up.
‘Okay.’ Grissel said as if she was angry.
‘Just Okay?’ Tom questioned.
‘Ahuh!’ She smiled at him. ‘I knew it was just a matter of time before you give up.’
‘Grissel, you let me win on purpose?’ He asked.
‘Of course but I do really appreciate you keeping this marriage alive. It was fun agreeing to every good and bad decision which got me all the pampering in the world.’

Tom gave her a soft poke on her cheeks.
‘By the way thank you for talking to Dane.’
‘I want something in return for that favor.’ She smiled cheekily.
‘If I can afford it.’
‘Trust me again Love.’ She announced reaching out for his hands.
‘I do trust you but scared sometimes. Right now I’m sure since Henry and Dane is out of our lives, it would be easier leaving you all alone.’
‘You asked me to forgive him but earlier it seemed like you were a different man.’
‘So you were eavesdropping.’
‘Not really, I was coming to get you when I heard you putting him on probation.’
‘But it’s not a mask to have him in our lives.’ Tom replied.
‘I know that but I’m concerned about what that outburst was really about. Tom I feel it’s not entirely about him.’
He sighed heavily and relaxed back on his chair.
‘My sister ends up with him. Same way my mom ended up with Morris and then Julia with Joe.’
‘And why is that an issue for you.’
‘They have all left me Grissel and somehow these men are trouble except for Joe, I guess.’
Grissel probably figured it out and laughed.
‘Oh wow!’ She exclaimed. ‘I have family too but my entire life is tied to yours. Don’t you think anyone misses me?’
He sighed and stood up half way kissing her on the cheeks. ‘Alright, I’m sorry. I can go back there and take my words back.’
‘No, just let them be and promise me you would stop interfering in their relationship.’
‘Let’s deal with promises later. Where’s Shirley?’
‘On an aspiring doctor’s tour with Michelle.’
‘She’s really serious with being a doctor right?’ Tom enquired.
‘I think what happened to her dad just shaped her future towards another direction.’
‘And you don’t like that?’
‘That’s okay, I think she’s going in for all two.’ Grissel said happily.
They were still talking when they saw Bryan dragging Melisa’s bag towards them. Tom recognized the bag because it was their mom’s and he remembered fighting with Melisa over it when they were kids.
