Just one night More frustration
ANDY’S POV“I’m sorry Miss, but they are no vacancies at this point” The manager tells me and walks back into his office and I sigh, running my hand through my hair as my frustration runs through my veins.You have got to be kidding me. This is the fifth café today and I was getting exhausted. At this point I think I am out of breath.None of the cafes has had any vacancies, even the ones that had a huge billboard with the words clearly written, still told me they didn’t have any vacancies for me.I know Drake must have something to do with it, it’s been three days already and almost every shop in town and none of them agreed to give me a job.I would have to go out of town and maybe take an afternoon shift, because I would have to used all morning to get to work.But I think I need to go home now. My legs are beginning to hurt so bad and I just need to sit down. I decide to seat on one of the chairs in the café and take a rest. I rest my head against the table. I guess I can rest my
Just one night Involvement
DRAKE’S POVMy hands swipe across my table in frustration and the files on it go flying to the floor, the cup of tree crashes to the floor.“I didn’t tell you to get a teenager involved!” I yell at him as he stands stoic and unmoving.“He wasn’t-““Shut up! Your main focus is her! Nobody else but her! Ruin HER life!” I was getting more and more frustrated by the second.Why can’t she just be wiped off the face of the earth? Why does she have to be breathing?And this…this idiot just had to get a teenager involved.“Wait…did she…by any chance, call my name?” I ask him. My reputation was still on the line here and my father’s approval of me.If he knew I was doing something like this, I am not sure he is going to approve. But I have to do what I have to do. It would break my father if he found out I got an ONS pregnant and probably make marrying Stephanie a little hard.If he found out, he might have to force me to marry Andy and I don’t even want to stay ten seconds with that living, b
Just one night Panic? seperations?
DRAKE’S POVStephanie helps me get settled in bed quietly as once again try to get some sleep.It was getting to a tradition now, but I still wasn’t used to this. I wasn’t used to this at all.No matter how sleepy I was, the deeper I try to fall into a deep slumber, the louder the cries get.Then I know what’s coming next. The tightness in my neck and the tight congestions in my chest area.Multiple times the doctor had said I was fine, and there were no symptoms of what I was complaining about. Even after observation, results came out the same.It was starting to look like anytime I was getting a check up or trying to get treated by the hospital, the symptoms disappear, but when I get home. It is a whole different story.Something new has to happen every two days and sometimes persist for the whole week. Three months into this lifestyle and I still can’t predict what happens next. Except for the ones that had seemed consistent.I wasn’t getting any better and that was a fact. But And
Just one night Numbness
DRAKE’S POVShe stands to her feet and walks to the other side of the room and looked out the window making me frown.“She always bragged about it in school and said she would be able to trap any man with it. It was a big flex of us” She turns around to look at me as I stare with a petrified look on my face.“Wh…what do you mean?” I frown.“I mean…she cursed you on purpose Drake” She Informs me and crossed her arms and my throat constricts as it begins to tighten.Why did she have to say it with so much… fierceness.That was too scary.I heave as my breath hitches and my throat gets tighter.Why am I so affected by this? Why does it hurt so much to know? I should have known this.I should have expected this to happen. Why am I so shocked? Why-?“Drake are you okay? Oh God, Drake…!” Her voice sounded a little distant and I could barely make anything of it.I focused on my breathing, simultaneously trying to stay away as I was slowly drifting.“Drake! Stay with me!” She yells at the top
Just one night Choices
STEPHANIE’S POVThere are a lot of things that one would have to do to live. Some things might seem despicable, and some things are just done because the universe wants it to happen.But either one it is, I’m going to do what I got to do.Not because I want to do it, but because I don’t have a choice. And as the saying goes, what is worth doing is what doing well.Because I don’t have a choice, then it is worth doing.My job got harder when Drake became paralyzed and couldn’t do anything for himself. It got annoying and frustrating when I had to be around him like every day and the only time I can be alone is when we are at work.I have to be some goody two shoes and I have to marry a man I barely know or love because that is the only way I can live.It’s pathetic, I know. But one of the worst things in life is when you don’t have any other choice but to do something. Because it is the only solution to salvage a situation.It’s pathetic to say the least and embarrassing too.I know on
Just one night Malcom
ANDY’S POVThe constant beeping of my alarm clock wakes me and I let out a groan. I go to roll out of the bed, but I quickly stop myself jumping wide awake.You’re pregnant Andy. Your days of rolling of the bed are over. I remind myself and running a hand through my hair.My hand gets struck and I knew I had to do something about the bird nest that is my hair.My off day was on Sunday, so that was the only day I knew I would be able to make my hair, but right now I had to get ready for four hour ride to work and I was dreading it.I wasn’t used to it yet since this was my third day. I don’t even think I would be getting used to it anytime soon.I easily get tired, I easily get hungry and almost every emotion I feel is to the extreme. If I am happy, it’s too much, which is a far stretch because I don’t think I have been happy these past few weeks.If I am sad, even worse, I cry on impulse. I could just think about crying and the fountain is on.It’s just too much for me to handle.I q
Just one night Drake’s embarrassment
DRAKE’S POVThe slight struggle to put on my trousers take a while longer than it should as my legs refused to receive strength.I had a doctor’s appointment today and I think it was best I told my doctor about the witch I impregnated. Maybe if I told him it had some spiritual backing of some sort, he would have a better diagnosis.I was getting more and more frustrated by the minute and as the days passed I was beginning to have questionable thoughts.But I knew I couldn’t leave my Father alone in this world. It is already hard enough for him that he has to suffer a stroke and slight paralysis. If something were to happen to me at this point. It would break him and I seriously didn’t want that to happen.I am doing all of these because of him. Trying to get rid of that pest because of him.My father had always hated polygamy, of any sort. He preferred one man and one woman. It was the reason he set me up with Stephanie and it was also one of the reasons he was so happy that he even a
Just one night More lies
DRAKE’S POVI watch the doctor as he takes my samples again, and placing them in the small tray.I let out a deep and tired sigh and I stare at the doctor with a bored look on my face.“So doctor, how long would it take for the test results to be out?” Stephanie asks and I zone out of their conversation already knowing the answer.If this turns out to be the same after this….if there is no change in the results after this, I would have to rankle Andy to come to me. That would be the only way to get answers out of her.For some reason she would always answer my questions. Like she knows I would ask them. She always had a response to everything.But it all made sense when Stephanie explained that she bragged about it so much in high school.She just needed to find a rich man to pin it on and unfortunately for me, I became the victim. I had to be the one to bear the ruins.At first, I thought this was some sort of joke and a prank, until days and weeks passed and I couldn’t move a lot of
