Stella
"Who is she?"
"where does she come from?"
"I'm sure this isn't his wife"
I listened and watched as people started joining in to look at a newspaper in a fat lady's hands. I walked over to where she was and tried to peak into the newspaper.
I felt my world came crumbling down when I saw the photo of me and Daryl in Paris.
"I didn't know him and his wife were divorced?."
"Maybe they're not and there's something more to it"
My face wasn't exactly shown up in the picture and that I was really thankful for. I walked away feeling very weak before sitting on
Stella Newton "Sweetie are you OK?" I flushed the toilet before getting off my knees and sitting on it. I jumped out of bed this morning and went straight in here to throw up. I rubbed my hands through my hair as I felt another wave of nausea coming up. I didn't know if it was something I ate that doesn't agree with my body. I went on my knees once more and downed the rest of it. I flushed the toilet once more before rinsing out my mouth. I looked in the mirror and saw that my skin was quite pale and my eyes were a bit red. "Stella? " I opened the door to see mom with a worried look on her face. She checked my head and neck for any signs of fever but I didn't feel hot. "How do you feel?, she asked as she guided me to the bed. I sat down before lying back on one of the pillows.
Daryl Valerio After a long shower, I exited the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my waist. I went to my closet and picked out a white shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans. I was dressing casually today because I was planning to take Stella out on a date.I half smiled at the thought. It's been about two days now since I last saw her and I couldn't help but admit that I missed her ; especially her gorgeous smile. Francis emerged from around the corner He scratched his neck before throwing his hands in his pocket. I started pulling on my clothes waiting for him to speak but he said nothing. I watched him confusingly as I buttoned up my shirt. "Is there something you want Francis?, I asked as I turned to him. " Sir I.."He p
Stella"Are you sure this is what you want?". I looked at the doctor for the longest time before tears started to form in my eyes. He moved away from me and sat in a chair beside the bed. "I think you should reconsider this Miss Newton". I fumbled with my fingers as I hung my head low and stared at the floor. I had no idea what to do. I shouldn't be doing this ;I shouldn't be here, but I was. In the doctors office ready to give up the thing in my belly. After I did the test and found out that I was pregnant, I stayed in the bathroom for almost two hours just staring out of space. My emotions started running wild and before I knew I had started crying.I glanced at the doctor who had a peaceful look on his face. I wondered what he was thinking about me right now. He stood up before laying a hand on my
Stella I have tried calling him and texting him but it was no use. He was truly upset and angry with me. I was also pissed at myself for even thinking about giving up an innocent baby. I panicked at that time and I wasn't thinking right.I wanted to go and see him but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I just don't understand why he reacted that way. I mean he didn't even consider my feelings and try to understand before he shouted at me and walked out. I should be mad at him too and the fact that he won't even pick my calls hurts me to the core. "Stella?" I looked at him for a few seconds before turning away to focus on the flowers in front of me. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in your lover boy's arms?". This
Stella Newton"So are you hungry?" "Maybe I would eat something a bit sweet, perhaps chocolate".Francis was driving me home after spending almost half the day together. After Daryl left we just talked about random and non random things. His ex wife wanted him back but he wasn't sure about getting back with her. I had no idea that all this time he was single. I just never asked him about his private life. "Getting a craving already hmm?" I smiled and shook my head. I touched my belly and ran a hand across it. Almost a year ago I wasn't sure about kids and here I was pregnant. It's just so weird that the unexpected always happens. "Can I ask you something personal but don't take it offensive?".
Stella Newton I was awoken by the sound of my phone ringing. I groaned and sat up wondering why someone chose to call me at this time of the night. I rubbed my eyes and took up my phone before looking at the caller's ID. Daryl. I answered and went under my blankets and pulled it up to my chest. "Hello". "I'm sorry for calling this late but I wanted to hear your voice"."oh really?, I replied as a smile sprung to my face. Yes, when I got back from the meeting I was tired and I fell asleep, I just woke up and wanted to make sure you were alright"."I'm fine, I said as I fumbled with the sheets. Was it weird that his rough voice sounded
A week laterDaryl Valerio "So do we have a deal?". I shook Mr. Hart's hand as he gave me a small smile. We made an agreement to invest in each other's business and now our meeting was over. I glanced at Amanda who was at the side tapping her fingers on the desk.It had been a terrible and stressing week. Amanda had been trying to seduce me the simplest chance she gets and it had gotten very annoying. She just won't understand the fact that I will never sleep with her no matter how hard she tried. "Daryl, I think we should talk about something ". I started packing the files into my briefcase trying not to focus on her annoying voice."I think we should make a baby or start thinking about it".
Stella Newton As I relaxed in my seat, I thought about everything that I've been through. From loosing my favorite job, my mom ending up in the hospital, me signing a contract to getting pregnant for a guy who I could never be with, everything felt so unreal.I was going to miss him but I had already made up my mind. I can't wait on him forever, his dad is never going to accept me and his family, I bet they already despised me. Ofcourse I love him but that can't even change a thing right now.That's why I was on my way, with my mom to the airport. I told her everything without leaving a single detail out and we both decided to leave the city. I will have my baby and raise it ; when it's born I will tell him or her about their dad. I had never imagined raising a child on my own but that's what I had to do. "Sweetie,
