Chapter 15: Suspended - Lala

Author: Jessica Lian
last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Why does my little red-headed friend insist on visiting during my points of absolutely the highest levels of stress? I woke up on the first day back to school as a married woman, hemorrhaging heavily! Lucky for me, my husband has already thought of this and has fully stocked the bathroom with everything I could possibly need and want… The man even bought Midol!

He wakes to the sound of me crying from cramps in the shower, “baby girl”?

He climbs into the shower with his sweatpants still on and brings me to my feet. He increases the heat level and holds me to him as the burning water runs down my back. The tension begins to loosen, and I sigh into his bare chest. He turns the shower off and wraps me in a towel, then leaves the bathroom. I put a tampon in and discard the wrapper before heading into the bedroom. He has a loose-fitted pink tee and black leggings laid out on the bed with my boyshorts panties and a matching sports bra on the bed. I sat down next to it and la

    I wake up to what sounds like Loyalty whimpering from the bathroom. I find her curled up on the floor of the tub, bringing back horrid memories of my mother. “Baby girl”? I step into the tub with her and pull her to her feet, leaning her into me before cranking up the heat of the water. She lets out a deep sigh and her body physically relaxes. After a few minutes and her skin starting to turn pink, I turned the shower off and wrapped a towel around her before heading into the bedroom to get her something comfortable to wear. She sits on the bed next to the clothes and begins to laugh. “What?” I ask her curiously. “Just curious how many girlfriends of Spin’s past it took for you to know what I needed”, she says. Like anyone before her was worth putting the effort into, “none! My mother suffered from Dysmenorrhea. She would cry in the tub the same way you were just curled up”! “What’s that?”, she questions. “It’s when a woman has heavy painful menstrual c

    I’m supposed to go back to school tomorrow, so I do everything in my power, including blowing Spin in the shower, to convince him to take me for my motorcycle permit test! When he finally agreed, I thankfully passed it on my first try! I spent the next several weeks getting him to take me out onto the track to ride my own bike. “Alright, so once she gets her license I’m pulling the ATV out”, Gabe tells Spin as they walk up to the track rolling my bike. “Take it slow baby girl, and remember you’re balancing both yours and Gabe’s weight so ease into the turns”, Spin tells me as I hop on. “I know, I know! Now let me ride. Come on, G! let’s go, let’s go”, I squealed. Gabe straddles onto the back of my bike behind me, and I take off slowly to satisfy Spin. Gabe is telling me pointers as we ride the track until they finally agree to let me ride solo with Gabe riding alongside me instead of with me. That’s when riding became better than being the pep squad co-captain!

    On the last day of Loyalty's suspension, she convinces me to take her for her motorcycle permit test before heading to the shop, and passes it in one go… Show off! As the weather gets warmer she pushes harder for me to take her out on her own bike. “Damn Spin, why such heavyweight tires on her bike?”, says Gabe as he rolls it out of the garage and up to the track. “Because the bike is lightweight, with the heavy tires, she can off-track with it”, I told him and smacked him in the back of the head. “Alright, so once she gets her license I’m pulling the ATV out”, he says as he rubs where I smacked him. Loyalty stands in the middle of the track, clapping her hands like a toddler. “Take it slow baby girl, and remember you’re balancing both yours and Gabe’s weight so ease into the turns”, I tell her and she rolls her eyes at me. “I know, I know! Now let me ride”, she squeals before hopping onto the bike. “Come on G, let’s go, let’s go”! My brother awkwardly climbs onto the bike with he

    It’s morning and I’m in a room that’s so familiar yet has also grown to be so unfamiliar at the same time. Opening my eyes to the bare walls of my bedroom at my foster parent's house makes me question if my life for the last few months was just some really odd dream. That is until I look at my hands to see my enormous pink diamond adorning my ring finger. No, not a dream… More like some really horrific and cruel nightmare!It’s after ten in the morning and nobody is home. So, after I have a small breakfast, I head back to my bedroom where I curl into a ball and cry myself back to sleep. I literally just wake up for food and the bathroom calls of nature!On day two, I woke up with a purpose! I’m going to weigh all my options and prepare myself for the next stage of my life. Step one is my adult adoption. I reprint the section that I’m supposed to fill out, including all of my aliases on this special form that Kevin mentioned yesterday. My name as it is known by the agency is, Loyalty A

    The next morning, I woke to a cold and lonely atmosphere. My baby girl is still not back. I drag myself out of bed and shower. When I came out of the bathroom, I noticed a Manila envelope on her bedside table, with her name Loyalty A. Hart printed on it. I opened the envelope to find medical documents, a referral to an OBGYN, and three sonogram images. I’m not really sure what I’m looking at in them, and I’m sure she would tell me if she were here… But she’s not! I stuff everything back into the envelope and toss the envelope on top of the dresser before continuing to get dressed. Everyone avoided eye contact with me this morning since they all heard our explosive argument last night. It's one of the downsides of living with so many people. But since there are whole rooms that serve as a buffer between me and the rest of the crew, no one really knows why I'm fighting with Loyalty right now. “Don’t worry”, says Brenda. “She’ll be back! She loves you”! I don’t say anything because, at

    ~GABE~ It’s still early in the morning, and I’m tinkering near the garage on the ATV before the Summer heat sets in, trying to find ways to increase the torque so I can keep up with Lala on it. I hear my brother stumbling around in the hallway, and I feel like he’s just been drunk for days since she left. He’s starting to remind me of our old man, so I’m just hoping Lala comes to her senses soon before he drinks himself into an early grave. As much as their relationship made me sick, having been in love with Lala since seventh grade, she was good for him. She made Spin a better person, and she never looked at me or anyone else the way she looked at him. It was a hard pill to swallow, but I learned to accept it! Spin finally stumbles into the garage from the hallway, slamming things here and there. “What the hell?” I yell at him as he continues to just toss shit around with no rhyme or reason. “Gabe, Loyalty just took off on her bike.

    It’s just another night at the nightclub, fucking Monday nights in the Summer are the worst! Tonight I have Courtney instead of Melanie upstairs in my apartment with Stephany, since I know Simon is conducting some business here this evening. I want things to go smoothly and, ever since she’s turned twenty-one, sometimes she’s a little too careless at the bar because she is so easily distracted by the male patrons! I saw Simon waving, so I knew his meeting was about to begin and I turned my focus to maintaining the crowd around him. That’s when three dumb fucks start a fight, right in front of the bar, breaking five glasses as they crash to the ground together. I grab the card off the bartop that belongs to one of them and hand it to Melanie. “Charge this for a case of new glasses”, I tell her before tapping Bo’s shoulder. He lifts me effortlessly onto the bar where I stomp my foot and kick the broken glass to the ground before yelling, “hey break it up asshats”! The guys are stunned

    I’m meeting this guy Sy from another bike club to organize a truce, since the police have really been cracking down and harassing the local bike crews. I have so many other legal issues I’m dealing with, I don’t need this too. It just feels like the right thing to do, since we all need each other right now, power in numbers and shit! I walk into the nightclub that’s very out of my element as the popish R&B music blasts through the place! Sy sits at a table close to the bar where the music isn’t so loud that we can’t hear each other. “Spin”, he calls out to me like I didn’t see his fat ugly ass, looking like a penguin as he's dressed in a suit in the middle of a club! He extends his hand out for me to shake. “Hey, what is this place?” I asked him as I shook his hand, since he too looks out of his element here. “It’s just an off-the-grid establishment I invested in since the owner wishes to stay anonymous”, he says. “Beautiful young smart girl, her dad is a persona

    Loyalty sobs herself to sleep in Bo and Max’s hold and her unconscious body is then carried by Bo out of the warehouse, where she’s loaded into an ambulance and taken to the hospital to be examined. After she’s released, she’s taken to Nina’s house where she barricades herself in Jonny’s bedroom with Stephany for days! The day before Jonny’s funeral, she goes with Bo, Max, Rich, all three of his brothers, and his sister to get a tattoo. I don’t understand what possessed her to get such a thing, but she’s in mourning right now and I’m still feeling shitty that the one fucking guy I loved to hate was the one who saved my life. But still… The tattoo bothers me! Right in the center of Loyalty’s chest is a life-like replica of the back of Jonny’s left hand. In the middle, it reads Jonny Anthony Knight. It also lists his birthday as Sunrise September thirteenth, and the day he died as Sunset October fourteenth. That wouldn’t be so bad, but on the ring finger of the handprint, it says ‘Amor

    Loyalty and Stephany spend one night with Jonny at his mother’s house before returning to her Brooklyn apartment. She calls me and pleads with me for space, and we agree that she’ll return to the lake house with our daughter on Saturday. Each day becomes more and more miserable without them, and by Friday I’m losing my fucking mind!Pardon my shock when Jonny calls me and I send it to voicemail the first three times before actually answering, “what”?“Amory is missing”, he practically whispers.“What the fuck did you just say?” I growled out.“Amory is missing”, he screamed into the phone. “I need you to get down here. The police want to have a word with you”!“Where’s my fucking daughter, Jonny?” I barked out frantically.He sighs, “she’s fine! She’s upstairs in the apartment. How long until you get here, Spin”?“An hour”, I told him before hanging up.I dial Gabe and he bolts down the stairs like a flash of lightning and we’re out the door in s

    I wake up in the bed of my Brooklyn apartment wrapped in Jonny’s arms, and if we weren’t both completely naked I’d almost be inclined to believe that the last few months of my life were just some really bad dream. I called Spin last night and pleaded with him for space, and after promising to return to the lake house by Saturday, he reluctantly agreed. I feel sick, although I don’t admit this to Jonny. Instead, I emphasize that my feet hurt, my back hurts, my boobs hurt, my butt even hurts, and I’m just tired beyond exhaustion. He does what he can to comfort me, but I know the stress of my situation is starting to become daunting to all of us involved. I’m bored to death with Jonny’s constant babying of me and when I suggest going down to the club for our last night here in Brooklyn, he agrees yet straight up tries to dress me! Eventually, I got my way. However, I do swap the shoe suggestion for the shorter wedged heels he chose from the stilettos I originally picked.

    I attend the date with Spin, only to end up in bed with him in some random room in the colonial. After knowing his history with women not sleeping in his bed, it leaves me feeling queasy that I even let it happen. It’s been three years, but I’ve come to terms with the fact that Spin just doesn’t do it for me anymore! I took Jonny back down to the lakeside hideout and confessed everything! At first, he was furious. I get it, we’ve been like fucking like rabbits with each other, so why would I even have allowed that to happen? I guess I was caught up in a moment and the alcohol sure didn’t help! “Mi Amor”, (my love) Jonny says as I lean against the hood of his car. “What is it”? I sighed before babbling out, “I did something last night that I shouldn’t have. I’m now sick to my stomach over it and I have to be truthful with you about it”. “Amory, what is it?”, he says calmly as he folds his arms over his chest. I can tell he already suspects what I’m going to s

    I wake up still pissed off about Jonny’s contract and how fluidly both he and Loyalty move with each other. I try not to stress it and switch my focus to doing damage control. I have tonight all planned out, and like with the night of the Broadway show, I’m putting Loyalty’s preferences first! I leave for work without so much as a peep from anyone, even Jonny is surprisingly still upstairs in Loyalty’s private wing of the lake house. All these extra doors are starting to become a nuisance… Was it necessary to construct a hallway closure barricade in both houses?! She’s so peculiar about certain shit to the point it irks me! When I arrive back at the lake house, I head to the shower before I seek Loyalty out. She’s in the hammock with Stephany lying over her. Even though our daughter is only almost three, she covers most of Loyalty’s body. Another testament to just how small she is compared to everyone else around her, even her own child! Courtney joins Loyalty in

    Loyalty, Jonny, and I traveled back to Brooklyn for one last week. They spend the week packing up their stuff to be taken to the lake house, while my anger at how close they’ve grown in the last month just seethes and festers within me. I haven’t been able to get more than a full-on-the-mouth kiss out of Loyalty and it aggravates me since she randomly breaks apart from Jonny’s hold whenever I enter a room they’re in together. By the time we make it to the courthouse for the DNA hearing, steam is coming out of my ears! It doesn’t help that Stephany throws a tantrum in the parking lot that results in Jonny carrying her like a China doll perched on his arm. I tried, Rich tried, even Loyalty tried, but Stephany refused to stop crying until Jonny took her into his arms. When the case is called before the judge, Loyalty is escorted to the plaintiff's desk with Rich and Jonny, who still has Stephany clinging to his neck. I stood alone at the defendant’s desk. I turned back a

    For over a week and during our last weekend trip upstate, tensions between Jonny and Spin continued to escalate. I’ve stepped in between them more times than I care to admit. In the middle of the first week of October when we appeared in court, everyone had just about reached their breaking point! Despite Spin petitioning the court for this appearance, I initiated the divorce, and, therefore, I stand at the plaintiff's desk while Spin is still the defendant in this case. Even with Rich being with me at the podium, Stephany clings to Jonny and refuses to let him go. So we stand before the judge with Jonny between us, momentarily confusing the judge as she steps out to approach her bench. “Ms. Williams, nice to finally meet you! Please explain to me what on Earth is going on here and why this divorce case now has a paternity request attached to it”, she states coldly. I take a deep breath and say, “yes, your honor. So a little over three years ago, when I made the

    I stepped out of the tent first thing in the morning to find Loyalty still lying on Jonny’s chest in the hammock. He’s holding his phone up over her head and they’re both clearly laughing. I don’t know what to make of their odd behavior anymore, so when I walk by I push the hammock and make Loyalty squeal at the sudden movement! The next morning at breakfast, Loyalty is explaining that it’s not necessary for them to take their stuff back to Brooklyn since next weekend is the last weekend before the new contracts go into effect and they’ll be at the lake house more than in Brooklyn. Courtney and Jonny agree, so they all load their dirty laundry into the washing machine together. I’m surprised they’re all in such agreement about this, but then again, Loyalty has baskets on a rack above her washer and dryer in Brooklyn that are labeled with everyone’s names on them, so I’m sure it’s not the first time they’ve all done this. At the lake house, there is shelving on the opposite

    I stretch out on the warm firm surface I’m lying on top of as the familiar smell overwhelms my senses and I rub my face into it. It starts to chuckle when I feel something vibrate from under me. Jonny slides his hand down between us to retrieve his cell phone from his pocket. “Amory, where’s your phone?” Jonny asks with his voice still raspy from sleep. I shrugged, “in my room probably. Why”? “Charlene has been tryna reach you”, he says. I sighed, “she wants approval to do a duet theme night for karaoke this week”. “Like couples karaoke?” I ask him confused, and he nods. “I guess that’s a cool idea”! “Wanna do a song with me?”, he asks with a smile on his face. It’s not like we haven’t before! “As long as it’s not Love Lies”, I said through my giggles and lay my head back down on his chest. Jonny laughs hard and says, “Okay! How about-“. “How about you surprise me, but just not Love Lies”, I tell him, making him laugh harder. “Okay! No Lo
