OliviaTwo days.Two days have passed and there is still no sign of Andrew. It's like he disappeared from the face of the earth. No matter how much Tay uses his resources, he can't seem to find him anywhere. We are all worried, especially Future. The stress is not good for the baby and if we don't find him I don't know how Future will be. I still remember when Tay told her about Carmen and Andrew's mother. She looked so pale and shocked we didn't know what to do. Nate punched his father and Tay had to drag him off their father before he could send his father to a hospital. I have never seen him like that. In short, the brothers cut their father out of their lives and gave him an ultimatum to hand himself to the police or they will do it themselves. Good news, there was no need for me to pretend like I'm the one who David signed his shares to. Tay took care of it. Let's just say David was not very happy that he got played and he vowed to destroy everyone. I still haven't told Tay that
TayOlivia is pregnant and didn't tell me, and on top of that, she is getting an abortion? I have never felt so betrayed as I do right now. She knows how much I want to have children with her and she goes and does this. I grab my phone and run out of the house. I nail a cab and tell the driver to drive to the hospital. I try calling her but it goes to voicemail. It feels like someone just stabbed me with a knife and kept twisting it. The pain of betrayal I have right now is nothing compared to the betrayals I have felt during my 26 years of life. She can't do this to me, not on my birthday. Today it's the 20 of November and it's my birthday. I have been busy trying to find Andrew that I almost forgot about it. I think all of us forgot. Olivia doesn't know when my birthday is but this is the worst birthday present ever.I pay the driver and hop out. I don't waste time and jog to the front door. I hope I'm not too late. The hospital is not as busy as the last time I came here. Heads t
Tay"Another one" I shout at the bartender whose name I’d learnt is Levy over the loud music. I have no idea how long I have been here but I don't care. I just want to forget today and the pain in my chest. "I think you have had enough man," he says, as I chuckle. "Are you the one paying, or am I?"I ask him annoyingly but don't wait for him to respond as lean over the counter to grab the bottle of vodka. I take a large gulp and slam the bottle on the counter."Do you want me to call someone?" he asks and this time I laugh."Are you married?" I ignore his question and look at him. He seems to be in his early twenties and is tall and lean."No""Good. Don't ever get married. It's just bullshit! Take my advice or don't, your choice," I shout as I take another gulp. "Hey, handsome," a hand touches me, and I turn to find a girl pushing her body to mine. Her breasts upon her face and dressed in a mini black leather skirt."Not interested, "I tell her and take another huge gulp. I can't e
TayI strip out of my clothes and step inside the shower. I rest my hands against the glass wall as hot water cascades over my body. I don't know what to do, I can't think of anything that could save our relationship at this time. I grab the shower gel and squeeze it on my palm. I wash my hair then my body and later dry it. I walk out to find Olivia sitting cross-legged on our bed. "Can we talk?" she asks and I lean against the wall and cross my arms over my chest."Talk about what exactly? That you killed our baby without thinking twice about it? That you didn't trust me enough to tell me that you were pregnant? That you destroyed our marriage? Which one do you want to talk about first?"I ask calmly much to my surprise. Must be because I'm tired and the alcohol is making me sleepy. All I want to do is sleep really, forget that this day ever happened. She has changed into an oversize white long sleeve t-shirt. My shirt. She walks to me and uncrosses my arms and my body ignites on i
Tay"Did you hear the news?"Nate asks, joining me in the living room."What news?"I ask while typing on my laptop. David left a mess at the company. There is a lot of the company money that went to an unknown accounts and I can't seem to find it."Dad handed himself to the police yesterday "he informs."That's good," I say and continue working. Dad is the last person on my mind right now and I don't care if he is in jail, as long as he is paying for his crimes."Where do you think Andrew is?""I don't know, "I tell him honestly. If I knew he would be back home with us."Try to remember the place he used to go when he wanted to be alone" he presses. "The last time I checked I'm not a damn computer that records everything so if you don't mind I'm trying to work here."I snapped without even realizing it. I sigh and push my hair back."Look, I'm sorry. I'm trying to put Payne corporations back in order and trying to look for Andrew at the same time, and the whole thing is stressful. I di
OliviaI don't know how long we have been waiting but it has been hours, and we haven't found Andrew. Future is running out of time. We are all trying to keep it together for her. Tay has been on his phone for hours too ordering people to find Andrew. Dad went home with Nora a few hours ago. Shawn stayed behind. What I don't understand is how Andrew could just disappear without any trace. It's like he doesn't want to be found. "How is it going?"I ask Tay as he seats down next to me."Jessica says she has something and will call in an hour" he informs me and I push his hair off his face."You need a haircut"I comment as I dig my fingers into his hair."I know, with everything that has been going on it slipped my mind," he says and I kiss his temple. "You need to rest. You have been here since last night. Go home and sleep for a while." he orders and I roll my eyes at him. "I will go home once I know Future is out of danger. She is my friend" I say and tuck a strand of my hair behin
OliviaI wake up to a light kiss on my temple and I smile knowing very well that it's Tay."Hey," I say and open my eyes. He has a towel wrapped around his waist and using another one to dry his hair."Feeling better?" he asks and I nod. I push myself up."What time is it?" I ask and tuck my hair behind my ear."7 pm" he informs and I gasp. I slept the whole day."How is Future? Did you find Andrew?"I ask quickly. "She is okay, don't worry," he says and pulls his sweat pants up his legs. He slips in a long white sleeve t-shirt."Wash your face and come downstairs. I made dinner" he informs, kisses my forehead, and walks out. I sigh and roll off the bed. Now I can relax that Future is okay. She frightened us. For a moment there I thought she wasn't going to make it. I brush my teeth and rinse after. I wash my face and dry pat it. I pull my hair into a messy bun and walk out.Nate and Tay are seated around the counter with a glass of wine each. A small white bowl with lasagna in it.
OliviaTwo weeks and four days passed as a blur. Future is now back at home. First, she was so mad at Andrew that he had to sleep in another room for a few days until she forgave him. When Tay asked him why he left he said that he needed time to think and that he didn't mean to take that long. I also had an appointment with James and everything is fine. Just had to take prenatal vitamins everyday. We also found the gender of our baby and we are having a baby boy. Another boy in the Payne family. Nate has been...Nate. Him and Rachel seem to be on good terms since she is coming to my father's place tomorrow for Christmas lunch. He also kicked Andrew and Future out because the baby is stealing his sleep at night. They didn't even have a problem since they were also planning to move. Tay was against it and I had to convince him that it's time to move on. Andrew has a family now and they want to raise their child in their home.Nate still refuses to make peace with Shawn and I pray he does
