My eyes drifted over to Bellamy as he sat on the chair with his fingers threaded through his hair. I watched him from my position against the wall with my arms crossed over my chest.
He was worried, so was I. Extremely worried as I anticipated the news that we all so not patiently waited for.
I couldn't ignore my frantic heartbeat as my anxiety washed over me and I kept on racking my brain over my impulsive decisions that were
Ezekiel stared at the surgeon in disbelief as the surgeon's words echoed in his head a million times trying to register it.Robyn, lost?"What do you mean we lost her?" Bellamy asked, his voice barely coming out as more than a whisper.
You would think after three years of marriage we would be growing stronger and our love would be flourishing like we predicted it would, but instead, it's quite the opposite.Walking away from him into our house from that dreadful party he dragged me to, I unzip my dress pulling down the straps and letting it pool down my feet. Kicking off my heels and ignoring his calls for me to stop.Walking upstairs to our room, I took off my undergarments letting them leave a trail behind me, normally I wouldn't make such a mess but I am just tired of everything.Entering the bathroom, I took a shower trying to show him how much I'm not interested in his whining. As the hot water cascaded on my brown skin, I let my tears be one with the water, I couldn't hold on anymore.I couldn't pretend that I'm okay with everything, turn a blind eye to everything he does for the sake of keeping our marriage together, to make sure that our vows live just like we promised eac
Waking up had to be the hardest part of it all, I wasn't even going to pretend I'm okay, better yet there was no one to pretend to.Bellamy did come back at some point in time this week but I couldn't look at him, not when he's so happy with his new life. He would mostly come back to fetch his stuff or check if I had signed the papers.I had yet to sign those papers but I couldn't find a pen anywhere in this room that has been my habitat and safe haven for a while, I moved away from the master bedroom because of all the memories that were in there.My phone had been no better seeing as to that I still had to delete his pictures but I couldn't bring myself to do that, I couldn't find the will to get rid of anything that represented us, I couldn't get rid of us.Finding the courage to finally call my mother and tell her what's happening in her worthless daughters life, I brought the phone to my ear and heard the antagonizing sound of the call
Two years laterThe men all sat in a room going through the files their bosses assistant had handed out to all of them.Studying the contents and learning everything in detail they waited for him to come in and brief them.Ezekiel stared at the picture of the girl in the file memorising every feature and curve, he found her extremely gorgeous and enchanting. Paging through the file he learnt more about her, her age being twenty-four she was young, really young and he couldn't understand how she somehow fell in Reed's radar.Although he was admiring the girl, Ezekiel was one to always do his job without any distractions, and he only hoped he wouldn't be stuck with monitoring.Reed entered the room, and just as the room was quiet, it stayed quiet waiting for the boss to speak."The file you're all looking at is of Robyn Barreau, Bellamy's 'ex' wife," he raised his fingers in inverted commas before putting his
Realising what I had just done, I opened the door again and he was still standing there. This man was gorgeous and he was smiling at me, and he is my new neighbour!"I'm sorry for doing that, that was super rude of me and I normally don't act like that. Oh god, you probably think I am a weirdo and I'm just making it worse by rambling off and not getting to the point which I will right now. Hi, I'm Robyn," I stretched out my hand for his and he just looked at me amused bringing his hand to shake mine."I'm sorry, I didn't get that because you said it all so fast. What's your name again bunny?" He's obviously not from here, he has an accent but I can't pin it anywhere, "Canadian," oh so that's where he is from."Bunny?" He only smiled and cocked his head to the side still holding my small hand in his huge hand that felt rough but nice to hold, "Robyn, I know it's a name that's normally given to boys but-""I like it," he said looking into my eyes, "Well I'm
HOW WE MET.I was standing in front of the wall trying to navigate where my first class was, I came early so that I could find it quicker but no luck here. Giving up I turned around and somebody bumped into me making my books fall.The person quickly helped me pick up my books and left in a rush, he didn't even bother to offer me an apology. Walking away to the class that was just down the hall, I entered and it wasn't fully packed yet.Sitting alone, I took out my note pad and I doodled as I waited for the class to begin, for one this isn't what I wanted to take but my mother said accounting would be the best foundation for me and a great career, I would just 'fit in great'.One thing with my mother is that I never have a say against her word, it's either I do as she says or get out of her house, perks of being the only daughter, I have three older siblings and they are all boys and have absolutely nothing next to their names yet t
I had just gotten back from another meeting with Reed, he wanted to know our progress and if anything was bothering us and whatnots, just a huge fucking waste of time.Slumping on the couch I tried to massage my head but thinking of how Robyn went out with this Jason dude was unsettling to me and if it hadn't been for the meeting with Reed I would have followed her, just to make sure she was safe.I heard the door slam closed and there stood Robyn in her shirt and shorts with her hands on her hips looking flawless as ever even if her braids are tied in a weird way right now."Where the hell were you Ezekiel?" she asked still standing by the door and I just stared at her, "Don't look at me like that, you weren't here when I came back," she whined walking over to me and throwing herself on the couch before putting her head on my lap and threading our fingers today."How was your date?" I asked smirking but I wasn't happy she went out with Jason. She s
It had been four months since Ezekiel moved into the building, and had been two months of us having conversations while we drank tea, he still didn't like it, but I vouch he would come over not only for the conversation but for the tea he so 'hates'."You won't believe what Mrs Hades asked me today!" I exclaimed remembering my conversation with her today earlier on before I went to work."What did she ask you?" he asked amused already knowing where this was going, so Hades had to be the woman who knew everybody's affairs and I mean everybody in this whole building, if you ever wanted to get information from her about your enemies, all you had to have was a bottle of wine and some weed, and get everything you ever wanted to know from her that easily!She is in her sixties and she has quite a tall finger, it just seems shorter because she's old and it looks like she's bending over slightly. She was slender and had deep burgundy hair that was cut short but it defin
Ezekiel stared at the surgeon in disbelief as the surgeon's words echoed in his head a million times trying to register it.Robyn, lost?"What do you mean we lost her?" Bellamy asked, his voice barely coming out as more than a whisper.
My eyes drifted over to Bellamy as he sat on the chair with his fingers threaded through his hair. I watched him from my position against the wall with my arms crossed over my chest.He was worried, so was I. Extremely worried as I anticipated the news that we all so not patiently waited for.I couldn't ignore my frantic heartbeat as my anxiety washed over me and I kept on racking my brain over my impulsive decisions that were
I couldn't stop glaring at Reed, not because he was the 'brains' behind all this deceiving, but because he had the audacity to bring my mother into his stupid plans.I prayed that wherever she was, hopefully at home she was okay and with dad because if he would dare lay a finger on her I would kill him with my own bare hands with no care whatsoever."Staring at me won't help with anything," he said checking his nails for
I straightened out my grey dress and made sure I looked like how I was expected to look. I plastered a smile on my face and greeted his employees with a smile while making small conversations with the ones I knew.I made my way into the elevator, to which was held open for me by a man and I gave him a thankful smile. He entered the elevator for with me and pressed the exact elevator button number I was heading to."You don't ha
The apartment was quiet, dead quiet as a matter of fact, the only thing you could hear was Jay's groans every now and then and my lips would pull up in a proud manner. But they were just merely a reminder to my own wounds that still needed tending but I wouldn't let it happen because I'm too stubborn.I looked at every single man that was still alive and in the room with me, none that I wanted to hurt except for Reed, but I was told to be a good girl and I was trying.
I sat on the couch staring at the same spot on the wall for the past hour, I could feel his blood and mine sticking onto my skin but I didn't want to wipe it off.I didn't want to do anything, I didn't want anyone next to me, I didn't want to think, I didn't want to talk, I just wanted to be alone and at peace.But I couldn't have any of that with all these men around me, my senses had kicked in and I was at high alert, I could
I watched Ezekiel as he tied my wrists together but not as tightly as Jay had before, I could move them a bit in the binding, although it was a bit uncomfortable it was better.We stood in silence as he gathered my hair in his hands and tied it into a ponytail. His hands rested on my hair a bit longer and he pressed a kiss on my forehead."We should probably go," I said breaking through the silence. He put his hand on my back a
"If you want Bellamy, why do I have to be the one tied?" Robyn asked looking at everyone else but me.I understand she felt anger towards me, probably not just anger but also betrayal and I guess there is no explanation in the world that I could give her just to have her look at me like she used to.When I had returned with our breakfast, I entered my apartment and called out for her but didn't get any response. I walked to my
I was standing in a house that I've never seen before wearing a beige cotton dress that fit my body perfectly well, I loved the way it hugged my curves and how it allowed my boobs to breath through the little V that was there."Robyn!" I heard my name being called and I looked to my left but didn't see anyone there, I walked off into the direction of the voice, I had heard that voice before.
