Just one night Actions
ANDY’S POVThe deafening silence that passed in the room after I had explained every single detail to them could be recorded.They were both dumbfounded and couldn’t find any words as they just stared at me in shock.“He is really cruel” Angela finally speaks and I run my hands through my hair for the second time, trying to rein in my anger.“Why would he do something so extreme? Try to take someone out completely because they are carrying your baby? It almost seems unreal” Ethan states calmly as he begins to pace back and forth in the sitting room.Ethan spoke calmly, but most of the time his actions don’t match his voice. He’s pacing right now like he’s about to loose it but when he speaks, you’d think he was narrating a movie or something.“But do you really have to go confront him? What if he tries to hurt you again?” Angela complains and I place her hand in mine before speaking.“He would be too shocked to see me alive before he can do anything” I shrug.She lets out a sigh of co

I can’t seem to wrap my head around the whole thing and I’m not going to lie, the fact that I can’t feel my legs as to be the worst thing to ever happen to me.“Get some sleep I’ll be back to check in on you. If you need me, just ring the bell okay?” She instructs softly and I nod, still no wanting to talk.I hear the pitter patter of her footsteps retreat and the door shuts softly, as she walks out of the room. I run my hand through my hair as I adjust the duvet on my body.I let out a deep sigh before closing my eyes, but I quickly open them back up remembering what happens whenever I try to sleep.First, I thought it was my mind just playing tricks on me and I was just hearing or imagining things, but I was sure I h
