Just Got Lucky (BOOK 1) 30
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

33J A K EI hated school. As soon as I finished college, I only had one goal and that was to become a model and do whatever it takes to become one. I am not very good at academics and hell I don’t even want to lift a bone in studying. I didn’t know how I survived high school and passed all that crap.I hated football too although I used it for scholarship since my father is a completely broke human being. I used to do part-time in waiting tables and it was something I was embarrassed about but I needed the money. Although I almost seemed to resort to joining exotic male dancers but then there’s school. I know I have more potential in me and I know I look damned good. I get it, I am charming and sometimes it’s just so easy to get girls these days. Most people think I am an aloof, or so they say I am because I don’t really like to talk to people who are not really worth my time. I didn’t have much male friends in high school because they are always so intimated by my presence to whic

34L I N D YAfter my last lesson, Jake showed me some images, and as soon as I saw them, a shudder ran down my spine. They were not something that I wanted to see, not with what is happening to me for the past few days. Immediately when I saw pictures of Milo and Paige having a date at a coffee shop, I felt as though my entire world was whirling with rage and fury. Why would Milo meet up with that woman in a coffee shop? What things are there left to talk about? Why in hell was she even meeting him in the first place and what else does she want from him!?How dare she touch his face in such a way!Since he is well aware of how envious I am of her, I find it hard to believe that he had the guts to actually meet with her in public. He was actually meeting her, so it makes sense that he did not even message me at all for the whole day today because he was seeing her.It is absurd that he had promised me that he never cheated on me and yet he is out there meeting an ex who took advantage

35I breathe out heavily, "How could you say that about a guy who actually opened his home for me?!”Milo annoyingly runs his palm over his face before he pushes his hair off his forehead, “That is the problem! He is not a hero here!”“Hero?!" I gaped before I scoff. "Hero or not, he was the one who was here and not you!” I paused and realized that my words went too far knowing the current situation that we are both in. I can tell from his eyes that he was hurt by what I said and I have never been more sorry. “Milo, I did not mean….”“You are right anyway.” He answers as he nods at me and it hurts me that those words slipped from my mouth even before I could think about it. “You are absolutely right. I was never there when you needed me and it fucking kills me every time I think about that Lindy!”There was silence."Do you have any idea how it hurts me so much that I am here and I am not with you?! You have no idea how I want to quit with everything with work and just be with you!"“

36L I N D Y“It’s Gwyneth.” Milo smiles.I was able to breathe as soon as I found out that it was her but I was surprised to know that she is there. Anyways, I am happy that she came to visit me.“I wonder what took her so long to get there.” He adds while I watch him drink his water. “I’ll get it.”He nods and I leave the phone as I rush towards the door. Upon opening it, I see a smiling Gwyneth who quickly leaped towards me and gave me a sweet tight hug. “I missed you!” She exclaims. “I’m so happy I came.”I pulled myself away and smiled at her. She looked exhausted, “I’m so happy to see you being here.” I said as I gestured for her to enter and helped her with her luggage.“Damn Milo did buy a pretty nice house.” Gwyneth commented.I chuckle softly, “Yeah he did buy a pretty big house. I am kind of embarrassed just thinking about it.”“Oh Lindy, it’s for your safety that’s why he bought this place. It took him weeks to find this safe haven for you and your baby. Although he’s an

37L I N D Y The following evening, after we drove Gwyneth to the airport for her flight back to London and bid her a temporary goodbye, Milo and I decided to have dinner in a restaurant. As much as I wanted Gwyneth to join us, she had to leave because she still had paperwork to finish we soon as she gets back. The paps were literally following us everywhere we went to and it was almost pathetically getting me a little annoyed. Despite the struggle of being surrounded and followed, I felt happy knowing that I was finally able to hold his hands in public again as we walked along the streets of Connecticut. It just proved to everyone who doubted our relationship that we are still together and that the news about our breakup was never true. There were even fans coming up to our table asking for a picture and Milo was just kind enough to smile for the camera and sign autographs. Personally, I think they should have respected Milo’s personal time since he was having a meal but then he
