bad romance

Chapter 6 - The return

Maris Pov

After listening to Harley talk to me about the most random shit, she finally started talking to me about her background story. I finally perked my head up and started to listen to her. 

"So, I was an employee and darker at the Akrum asylum, here in Gotham and the joker became my patient. I mentored and listened to him for weeks, at one point, him and I fell in love. I helped him escape the asylum, but after escaping, the joker actually left me to go fend for myself because, he didn't want to destroy my life with his dangerous schemes. Eventually time went by, I would say 1 week, and I went to find him, and he took me to this chemical place. If I wanted to have this lifestyle with him... I had to jump into the chemicals."

"You jumped obviously." I said while laughing.

Harley laughed with me. "Girl.. duh! Thats the love of my life"

"I'm happy for you Harles.. you deserve real love in this thing we called life."

"You're going to find someone who would literally take their life, so you can keep yours."

I nodded. "What happens now Harley? Do I just run from Luka the rest of my life?"

"No Mari, joker will take care of it. I will talk to joker tomorrow to see any updates on him Mari... I promise everything will be okay."

"Thank you, Harley."

We sat in silence the rest of the ride until we got to Elena's house. 

"You can take the blindfold off Mari" Harley giggled. 

I took my blindfold and looked out the window. I saw a large pink and brown house, with a beautiful garden OutFront. I got out of the car and was in awe of the view. Out of nowhere I heard a scream. I looked at the front door and saw Elena coming running. 

"MARIIIII!!!!!!"

Elena ran up to me and hugged me so tight I couldn't even breathe. She pulled out of the hug and stared at me. Elena was the definition of beautiful. She had a small figure and long brown hair. She always loved to represent herself by wearing stylish clothes. She had on a long sleeve tight pink, V-neck shirt with dark blue skinny jeans and white high heels. I loved to idolize Elena. She always knew what to say and how to say it. She has always been there for me. 

"I've missed you so much Elena!"

"I've missed you more Mari... what's new! wait omg, let's go inside. Alya will be here soon!"

We followed Elena inside, and her house was small and beautiful. White and pink walls and many flowers and beautiful modern furniture. After a house tour we heard the doorbell rang and Elena went to open the door and there stood Alya. Alya was medium weight and a little thick. She had short dark brown hair with orange strips in her hair. She never dressed up unless she was out with her boyfriend. She had on black tights and an oversize t shirt with her black crocs. 

"ALYA!"

"MARI!"

We gave each other a hug and we all ended up in the living room and sat around the room in our love seats. Every seat in Elena's home was love seats and then one big love seat for herself. Elena poured everyone a glass of wine and we sat around the room and ended up, one by one telling all the new updates in our life's.

"Harley, what's new with the joker? When's the wedding!" Elena said with a giggle.

"Soon I hope, we have stuff to do before that, so I'll say a year at most!"

We all smiled at Harley; she was the luckiest woman alive. 

I drank my wine and wished nobody would bring up Luka. I didn't even want to think about it anymore.
