Good thing I brought my clothes and stuffs with me in my suitcase, I can easily find something to wear that I like.
Now that I am in New York, I can also try to go back to my apartment in Manhattan, I don’t think it is being thoroughly watched by the police again.I wake up from the bed and I walk towards the door so I can lock it. When I have, I remove my clothing and put them in a neat pile.I need to shower, I feel a bit icky.This beautiful room has a bathroom and I am going to make use of it.When I enter the bathroom, I am impressed at how nice it is. It is the nicest bathroom I have seen.And the size of it is jaw dropping. This could even be a second bedroom.I walk towards the shower and I turn the water on. I then walk over to faucet and I look at my reflection in the mirror.I look a bit drained, and my face seems pale. Maybe the shower would help.I open a cabinet near the mirror over the fWhat is Robert doing here?“Henry..” I say his name in a warning tone and he raises his hands in defense.“Trust me, I didn’t know he was coming or even your lover.” He defends himself and I sigh.“Don’t tell him I’m here, I will be upstairs.” I tell him as I wake up from the couch. I walk past the maid and I head to the room.***Henry’s POV***Well, this is a surprise.“Are you certain that he said his name was Robert Jones?” I ask the maid and she nods.“Yes, sir.” She replies politely.“Okay, okay. Let him in.” I tell her and she nods again.She curtsies as she excuses herself.I didn’t even know that Jen had a lover, and the fact that she chose to become intimate emotionally with the greatest playboy of America seems comical, but yet sad.I place the remains of the apple I was eating done on the coffee table as I stand to my feet.Soon, I see Robert Jones walking in. The l
My nod was the only visual confirmation that my guards needed.The guard that Robert fended away hits him with the end of the gun in his gut and his doubles over and falls to the floor.He lets out strings of cusses as he coughs.As the guard is about to hit him again, I raise my hand for him to stop.“Stop, it’s alright.” I say as I study Robert on the floor. He is in a kneeling position and he looks like he is in physical pain.“Henry...” I hear a voice and I look towards it. It’s Jen, and she is walking towards us.Damn it.“Stop this, please.” She begs as she gets closer to him.Robert scurries to his feet and he turns toward Jen.“Jen, Jen. Thank God you’re alright.” He says as he tries to hug her but she dodges him.“Don’t touch me.” She spits and she walks to me.“I had this handled, you did not have to come out.” I inform her and she shakes her head as to say no.“Viol
There’s a feeling you get after you just cried you eyes out. It’s an odd, but yet satisfying one.This is first time since my parents were murdered that I have cried this much. The pain I feel is stupid, but it doesn’t stop me from feeling it.Why am I crying over a guy?This is one of the reasons I chose not to indulge in relationships or anything related to love.I was way better when my heart didn’t yearn to be with another. I was at peace when my memories weren’t filled with images of a man.What Robert did is forgivable, it honestly is. I have done worse. But I think what hurts me the most is that he was doing all this even after all the intimate moments we shared together, as if they meant nothing.That part is unforgivable.He played me like a stringed instrument, and he would have kept on playing me if I didn’t find out about it. I miss the old me. The old me did not have time to give her heart to
“Wow.” Henry gasps.“You look amazing.” He smiles as he says this.I have never seen Henry act this way, he is literally flustered. This makes my confidence boost a bit.I have not been out for a while now, and with Robert and everything going on, I started to feel a bit insecure.“You’re ready for us to leave?” I ask him as I step of the room. He keeps staring at me in awe.“Ye—yeah.” He stutters and I chuckle.He gestures his arm towards me and I hold it as if I am his prom date.“Let’s go clubbing.” He says and then smirks.We both exit the house and I notice that a nice car is already ready to take us. A driver sits in the seat and two other guards open the doors for us to get in the backseat while another guard sits in the front.Some would say all these securities are a little too much, but it’s really not. Henry is almost like a public figure in London. He literally hangs out with the Q
“Henry..” I say in awe and he chuckles.“Here’s your drink, boo.” The bartender calls for my attention and I receive the drink from her.“What is this?” I ask her as I hold the glass of liquor in my hand. It is cold to the touch.“Stop asking questions and drink up.” Henry suggests and I ignore him. Those four shots of tequila would soon be kicking in, I’m sure of that.“Drink it and find out.” The bartender says with a smirk. She watches as I bring the glass to my lips, tentatively sipping some of the content from it.I feel heat rise in my mouth and throat as I swallow it and the bartender chuckles at my facial expression.It is actually not that bad, it has a sweetness but the alcohol content seems high.“Do you like it?” The bartender asks me.I take another sip before replying her. I’m starting to enjoy the slight burn when the drink goes down my throat.“It’s not bad.” I say and she smiles proudly
A light buzz sounds in my ear and I twist and turn on something that I think is a bed.My eyes flutter open and the first thing I see are the white ceilings.Where am I?I begin to look around and I soon realize that I am in a room. A strange sensation fills my body and I feel lightheaded.I try to sit up and I do so successfully. No one is in the room with me and I have a feeling that this is a hospital room.I made it clear to that guy, no hospitals!I am a fugitive and taking me to the hospital is basically the same as taking me directly to the police station.My identity would be uncovered without me even being conscious.“Oh, you’re awake.” A man enters the room and his voice startles me.I watch him carefully in case I have to fight my way out of here.“How are you feeling?” He asks me and I don’t answer. I only study him.He is wearing a formal white shirt, black trousers,
I can’t fathom that I have a literal baby inside of me. It is so fascinating.“Hey, there.” Henry enters the room and startles me when he speaks.I stroke my hair and I smile.“Hey, Henry.” I reply.He looks like he was in a war. I believe that he is having one of the worse hangovers right now. He drank so much last night.“Are you feeling alright? You gave me quite a scare last night.” He says and I sigh.I instinctively look at my stomach, and then I lift my eyes back to him.“Yeah...I guess I drank a little too much.” I say with a tentative smile.“Did the doctor tell you anything?” I ask and he walks closer to me.He is shirtless and has on baggy pajama pants.“Oh, he didn’t say much. He only said that you drank too much and you need to stay hydrated and rest.” He informs me and I nod slowly.Good, that means the doctor did not tell Henry that I am pregnant. “That’s all?” I ask him and he nods.“Pretty much.” He replies.The dull he
“Where are you going?” Henry asks me as I walk towards him. He is in the living room slumped on the couch.“At my apartment.” I reply him and he chews on the half eaten apple in his hand. This guy is always chewing on something.“So soon?” He speaks without looking at me. His eyes are now glued to the giant flat screen TV.“Yeah, I guess. And oh, I’m using one of your cars.” I inform him and he looks at me.He studies me from my toe to my head and he smiles.“I see you are back to your old self.” He says with a smirk.“And you can use whichever car you wish to.” He adds.I thank him and I exit the house. There are a lot of cars to choose from. I may choose the black sleek Ferrari, it seems to fit my personality more.“Ma’am, how may I help you?” One of the guards walk up to me and asks.His features remind me of one of the clients I worked for some time ago, he was Asian and very wealthy.“Henry gave me permission to use one of the cars.” I inform h
