Just Got Lucky (BOOK 1) 25
25L I N D Y"Thanks Jake." I answered. He smiles. "No big deal. You're my friend. But I hope Milo's not mad at me."I smiled to reassure him, "No. There's nothing to be mad about anyways."I spent the entire time with Jake and we talked mostly about college life. He was still adjusting to the changes that I am also going through and I couldn’t help but agree with him because we were obviously going through the same thing. It was a very light and friendly conversation with Jake and if only Milo would have the chance to hang out with him, I think they would make good friends if Milo wasn’t too jealous.I was feeling sad that we fought over something so petty. Milo had never been this jealous to anyone and it was something that really surprised me because he has always been so calm. Yet, with the attitude he gave me earlier was really something else.Jake walked me back to the ladies' dorm building just to make sure I was safe. It was thoughtful of him to do so and I felt happy that he

26L I N D YThe next morning, I woke up with no message from Milo. Have I done something so awful that made him go mad like at me like that?I felt sad knowing that he is still so mad at me as if I have done something horribly wrong when in the first place he didn’t listen to my explanation. Being a teenager, I decided not to message him too because I can play this game as well. It was childish of me to jump into the crusade but I couldn’t think of it as my fault since Jake was in the same place as I was. I continued with my day and decided to attend class focusing my attention to the lessons. Fast forward and it was lunch, I shared a table with Jake. It has been days since I haven’t talked to my other friends and it seemed pretty much unusual for me. Usually we would hang out to eat dinner but lately they are just gone. “You seriously can’t stay in the dormitory.” Jake blurts out. “What do you even mean?” I chuckle. “It isn’t a safe place for you. Griffin could just potential

27L I N D Y I was comforted by the dorm officers because I was still literally in shock. It was hard to believe that I managed to get away from Griffin and how thankful I am that I am still alive right now. I was then escorted to the security guards’ area where they allowed me to stay for a little bit until it was safe to go back inside.To be honest, I don’t want to sleep here after what happened in my dorm room. I am too traumatized to even sleep at all. I am still a bit antsy and worried out of my mind that things would happen again and Griffin would pop out of nowhere. I still have that vision of how the knife pointed right at my face.I decided to message Milo: Please call me when you get this. I needed someone to hear me out and I needed Milo the most at a time like this. I sent him another message: Please I need you.I sat on my chair and decided to message Jake too since I was reminded that he asked me to message him if things went wrong. I can’t think of anything and anyo

28L I N D Y No, this wasn’t happening. It can’t be. I just can’t accept this.I see Milo flirting with another girl as they lounge in the booth of this crowded and ear-splitting club. My hands were shaking in anger as my armpits feel like it was sweating too. The humidity of this club was hot and I can see sweaty people dancing on the dance floor.This wasn’t happening. Milo could never do this to me, he would never.My tears streamed all over my face and my heart was hurting too much as soon as I see them kissing each other. I was completely in shock to see how Milo calmly slides his hand under her dress. I could tell from the woman’s face that she was being fingered as she continues to kiss Milo. I couldn’t accept this. I wasn’t enough to him. I cried my way out of the club because I had no guts to approach him after what I have witnessed. I will never understand why he could do this to me knowing that we are going to have a child soon. Why would Milo do this? How could he do th

29L I N D Y I cannot believe that Martha is actually here.“Oh my gosh, you are here!” I gaped and hugged her as soon as she got close to me.“I have missed you so bad!” She says as she tightens her hug.“I have missed you too.” I answered.She pulls herself away and glances at Jake, “Hey Jake. What’s up?”Jake smiles, “Hey.”“I thought you went to New York for your modeling career?” She asks.“Modeling?” I repeated as I turned to Jake.“Yeah, it didn’t work out.” Jake answers shyly with a rueful smile.“You’re both on the news quite recently. I saw a few snapped photos of you together. Is Milo okay with that?” Martha asks. “Please tell me you are still together.”“Milo and I are absolutely fine. He is cool with this for the meantime, at least I have someone who can protect me.” I answered as I glance at Jake. “Anyways, what are you doing here Martha?” "Oh, baby girl I have a lot of things to discuss with you.” She giggles.I have terribly missed her so much. She furrows her brows

30L I N D Y“I am beyond the word happy right now!” She exclaims excitedly.I smile.“Does Milo already know?”I nod, “He was the first one I talked to about the pregnancy.”“I am happy that he is responsible enough as a man after getting you pregnant at such a young age. That’s why he got you this house huh?”“One of the reasons.”Her brows creasing, “Now why do you look like you are sad?”“I don’t know. I am happy that we have a baby but…. I just don’t know how the people will accept this. I am still a teen. I’m still so young and this could possibly ruin Milo and his career.”Martha rushes to my side and gives me a warm embrace, “Look I know you are always so worried about what other people would say and how other people will judge you. But don’t you think that it is time for you to stop worrying about what other’s would say if you do this or you do that?”“I just can’t help it Martha. I always end up worrying about the fact that I could possibly be the reason why Milo’s career wo

31M I L OI groan as soon as my phone kept ringing over the dresser next to my bed. I don’t know what time it was but I guess it was already three in the morning. I reached for my phone half asleep and half awake when the call ended. I rub my eyes then I take a good look who just called me and as soon as I notice that it came from Lindy, I hurriedly called her back. “Hello?” Lindy sobs softly on the other line. “Lindy baby what’s wrong?” “Milo…” her voice soft, almost like a whisper, and sounded scared. I can feel her cupping the phone with her hand as it sounded a little breathy. “What’s going on?” I ask again as I pulled myself up from the mattress.“Someone is watching me from outside the house.”My brows, “What?” I feel a little bit nervous that I pulled the duvet off me. “What do you mean? What are you talking about?” “There was an unknown number who messaged me and it said I’m watching you.” I feel a little fright beginning to grow, “Where are you? Have you made sure you

32M I L OJake dated Bianca Annalise. I don’t even remember who that woman is but she didn’t really matter. What mattered was Jake.Maybe he is bisexual? I can’t stop myself from thinking and worrying about his sexuality because he seems to be around Lindy all the damned time.As soon as I reached the studio, I didn’t think about anything else but the conversation I had with Paige earlier in the café about Jake. I tried to assume that possibly she was talking about the wrong guy or maybe she is lying to me just to get back at me after her modeling career flubbed. But what’s more frustrating to me is the thought that makes me wonder if Lindy did even know about this. Did she know he was a model in New York? Did she just lie to me about his sexuality so that she would live there and I won’t suspect anything?No. A voice in the back of my head heeds.She couldn’t lie to me over that. I know her better and she wouldn’t. What if Jake is the one lying to her about his sexuality and ever
