Chapter 765: Chapter 182- Trinity – Physical Therapy (VOLUME 4)

~~

Trinity

~~

Thankfully, the celestial deities didn’t stick around for long. Just after we settled on the fact that Talia was going to ‘conditionally’ be the next Goddess of the Underworld, they promised to come by again in the near future to begin her ‘training’. I don’t know if they had simply heard Reece and Griffin coming up the stairs or if they just naturally needed to leave at that time. It didn’t really matter though. All that did matter was that they were going literally moments before Reece and Griffin came into the bedroom.

“Trinity! My Little Bunny, my one true love, how are you feeling?” Reece almost made me gag at that moment. He was being a little too much. I loved him for it though. Because I knew that he was just showing me how much that he loved me and missed me while I was gone. Still, that was a corny and cheesy line.

“I’m fine, Reece.” I smiled at him and tried not to let him know that anything had just happened. That was a moot point though, since I hadn’t told Talia to keep it a secret from daddy.

“Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!” She leapt off of the bed and ran toward Reece while calling out to him. “Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!” She was still calling out to him as she jumped toward Reece and he caught her in midair.

.....

“Whoa! Slow down there, baby girl.” He laughed at her and her enthusiasm. “What made you all excited?” He looked between me and her as he asked her that question.

“I am going to be a Goddess.” She was so excited to tell him her little secret.

“Maybe one day. You can be a Goddess, just like Mommy.” He smiled at her, happy that she wanted to be like me.

“No, not one day. Now. I have already been picked. They came to see me and Mommy. I am going to be a Goddess. They all said so.”

“R..really?” Reece was looking at me with concern and confusion filling his eyes. I could already read the question that was hidden inside of them. ‘What the hell is going on here, Trinity?’ Yeah, that was definitely what he was trying to say to me right now.

“We will talk more about it in a little bit. Let us finish the things that we need to take care of first. I promise you that I will explain it all in time.”

“Okay.” He didn’t look particularly happy with my words, but he was content to go along with them for now. “Hey, Talia, sweetheart, why don’t you go back to your room. I think that Abigail is going to be bringing you some food to your room soon. You can watch some cartoons while you eat tonight.”

“I would rather eat together, but I know you are busy, Daddy. I will watch something. Maybe a show about butterflies. Or something else. I don’t know yet. Thank you for talking with me Mommy. I love you. See you later. Love you too, Daddy. And you too, Uncle Griffin.” She was a little ball of energy that was happily talking a mile a minute. When she was down though, she jumped out of Reece’s arms, landed lightly on her feet, and then ran from the room.

It was sad to see my little girl leaving the room. However, Reece and Griffin were here so it wasn’t like I was going to be lonely. And given the fact that Griffin was here, I could guess that he was here for my treatments.

“Good evening, Griffin.” I smiled at him, trying not to show how nervous I was. I remembered how much it had hurt yesterday when he was here to help me with my movement.

“Hello, Trinity. How are you feeling today? Have you been able to move anymore at all? Have you done the exercises I told you to do?”

“W..well, I have been able to move some more.” I didn’t even try to hide the guilt in my voice when I answered him.

“So, no exercises, huh?” He laughed at me.

“I am sorry. I want to get better, and I will do them soon. It’s just that I had so many visitors that were coming to see me today that I wasn’t able to fit them in. I have literally had someone with me almost constantly since I woke up this morning.” I did my best to explain to him that I wasn’t just ignoring his advice.

“Yeah, I figured that would happen. So, I want you to promise me that you will do all of the exercises tomorrow. If you don’t, then I will come here myself to oversee all of your recovery.” There was a slight evil glint in his eyes. I knew that Griffin was telling the truth right now. He would definitely come to stay here and make sure that I did what I was supposed to. There was no doubt in my mind.

“I promise, Griffin. I will do them tomorrow.” I meant it too. I needed to get better. I needed to be able to feed myself and to hold my children in my arms when I hugged them. I wanted to touch my husband’s cheek and to wrap my arms around him when he hugged me. I needed to be able to move, for my own sanity’s sake.

“Good, then let’s get to work.”

Griffin got right to work. He was using his magic to heal the muscles that had atrophied while I was asleep for so long. It didn’t hurt quite as bad this time as it had the last time. However, it still wasn’t exactly pleasant. In fact, I was in a lot of pain but it was much easier to manage this time.

“Stop hiding it.” Reece yelled at me when Griffin was almost done with his magical healing.

“W..what are you talking about?” I asked him, pretending that I didn’t know what he was talking about.

“We both can see it, Trinity.” Griffin said as he pulled his magic away from my body. “It’s painfully obvious how much this hurts you, Trinity. I wish that there was another way. I wish that I didn’t have to hurt you.”

“I’m fine, Griffin. I know that it is necessary. Also, it may still hurt, but it hurts less than it did yesterday. So, it is already getting better. I promise you both, it’s fine.” I did my best to reassure them.

“Are you, though?” Reece asked me apprehensively.

“Yes, I am. I promise you that I am.” I smiled at him and gave the answer my all. “Now, keep going, Griffin. I want to get better as soon as I possibly can.” I lifted my arm toward him and Reece, more than I have been able to lift it since I woke up. “See that, it’s already helping. This is why I want to keep going.” That made both of them smile at me. Reece’s boyish grin and the handsome smile that was Griffin’s. They were both happy to be seeing what I was doing.

“Alright, Trinity. Let’s keep going.”

Now that the two of them saw that I wasn’t wanting to stop and that I could handle it, we got back to work. Now, Griffin was moving my arms and legs around in the exercises he had told us about. Only, while he was doing that, he was pouring his magic into my body. Specifically, he was pouring the magic into my limbs to make sure that I could move them better.

Of course, it all hurt, but this was necessary. The muscles had been unused for so long that they were screaming at me when they were moved just the slightest little bit. But that was fine, I was able to fight through it.

Oh, and to make things even better, I could feel a looseness in my body by the time that Griffin was done. I was a little too tired to try and see if I was able to move before Griffin left, but I knew that soon enough, I would be able to do everything for myself.

The first thing that I was going to try it out on was my dinner. I was determined to feed myself tonight. I wanted to have that luxury again. I don’t think that people realized how much you take for granted, all those little things in life. You never notice all that you can do for yourself until you can’t do them anymore. I would work hard for the rest of my very long life to not take things like this for granted ever again.

I was thankful to be here. I was thankful to be alive. I was thankful that I had my family. And once I could move again, I would be thankful to have my body back. Well, I guess I wouldn’t have it back right away.

In truth, I wouldn’t have my body back for a while. Not until the triplets were born. Only then, after they made their way into the world and were able to be held in my arms, would I have my body back. And that was another reason to get better too. I needed to hold Zachary, Zander and Zayden. I needed to be strong enough for that. I wouldn’t stop working, all day every day if I had to. I would never give up. I wanted this too much. For me. For my family. For my babies. I needed it.
