Chapter 7
*Edward’s pov*
I heard a knock from the door.
“Can I come in?” Alice asked.
I took a deep breath.
“Sure. “ I said.
Alice opened the door. Her face was expressionless. She sat beside me.
“How are you?” she asked.
“Not so good, “I whispered.
“I’m sorry.” She said, sadly.
“I told you, anda don’t have to blame yourself. It’s not your fault.” I told her.
“It’s not yours, either.” She said
“Yes. it is.” I muttered.
“So are anda going to tell me what happened? atau I’m going to guess?” she asked.
“Do anda know Ashley Walker?” I asked her.
“Nope.”
“Well, she’s my high school best friend when I was still human at Chicago.” I started.
“And?” she asked.
“She was also a victim of the disease. I thought she died first because she didn’t tunjuk up since Carlisle changed me. I wanted to find her but I was told sejak her mother that she had died.” I said.
“So,” Alice waited.
“I saw her. She’s alive. She told me that she was also bitten sejak a vampire. At first, I didn’t believe her until she showed me the scar. Ashley’s parents were my father’s best friend. Our parents wanted us to be together and they even made an arranged marriage. Like Tanya, Ashley showed some interest to me. But I didn’t tunjuk her any. Bella was the only one who has caught my heart. She was the only reason for my existence. “I stopped and took a deep breath.
“A few moments ago, Ashley showed up. I was shocked so I froze, I didn’t realize that she was Ciuman me. I can’t alih my body because I was really dazed. But I really don’t want to Ciuman her. Unfortunately, Bella saw us. She thought that I betrayed her. But she’s thinking the wrong way Alice. She’s thinking the wrong way!” I berkata as my hands balled into fists.
She touched my shoulder, comforting.
“Thanks so much Alice.” I told her.
She went out the room and leaved me alone so I can rest.
I looked back at the places where Bella usually stay. I’ve decided to went downstairs to the living room because I want to seek some advices from Esme.
Everyone was looking at me.
All of a sudden, Carlisle’s phone buzzed.
“Hello?” he asked.
We waited and then he shouted.
“What?! Okay, were coming. Thank you.” He berkata as he ended the call...
“What happened, Carlisle?” I asked.
He looked at me.
‘Jacob called me, Bella had just fainted.’ He thought.
“What?! How could that be?” I asked.
‘I don’t know either, let’s go.’ He thought as he went out the door.
I was about to follow him but then Alice spoke.
“I’ll come with you.” She said.
I nodded.
“How about us?” Emmett asked, he’s thinking of a fight.
“Don’t worry Emmett; it’s not about a war.” I berkata as I went outside.
I drove quickly. We reached Charlie’s house immediately.
We entered Bella’s room. I saw her on the katil with Jacob sitting beside her.
“Bella?” I asked as I shook her slowly. I sat at her side.
“What happened to her?” Alice asked.
“I don’t know. She called my name and when I looked back at her, she fainted.” Jacob berkata worriedly.
“How could that be Carlisle? Vampires don’t faint and they don’t even felt dizzy.” Alice said.
“Well I guess, it’s not about her Vampiric nature.” Carlisle said.
“What do anda mean? I asked.
“We all know that she’s physically strong. Even stronger than Emmett. But Vampires do have their weaknesses, Edward. Like me, my weakness was Esme, Alice’s weakness was Jasper, Rosalie’s weakness was Emmett and Bella’s weakness was… you. Yes, she is physically strong, but she’s emotionally weak. Do anda remember when anda thought that she’s dead? anda went to Italy to provoke the Volturi to kill anda without even having a saat thought. You’re out of your mind. All anda wanted was to be with her and to make her happy because your weakness was Bella. It’s the same thing. When she thought that anda don’t Cinta her anymore, it broke her hati, tengah-tengah so much. Like I said, her weakness was you; she doesn’t want to be hurt sejak you, and to see anda being hurt. That’s why she left you. Because she thought that it will make anda feel happier to be with that girl, whoever she is, though it really hurt her so much.” Carlisle explained.
I stared at Bella’s face.
Jacob suddenly spoke.
“How can anda do that to her?” he asked me.
I didn’t respond.
“I thought anda Cinta her.” He said.
“I do.” I told him.
“But why?” he asked.
“I don’t know. I really don’t want to do this to her.” I berkata as I took a deep breath.
“But – “Jacob was about to speak when Alice cut him off.
“Enough. Edward, I think anda better go out. She’ll be awake in less than 5 minutes. She doesn’t want to see you.” She berkata sadly.
I kissed Bella’s forehead. And I walked away. I stopped at the door and looked back to her. I sighed and continued to walk.
“I wanted to talk to her, alone. please.” Alice told Jacob.
“Sure” he berkata as he went out with Carlisle.
