My Boss Next Door Chapter 0026
My prayers go unanswered. As I stand in my apartment's bathroom, I stare down at the pregnancy test stick. The plus sign stares back at me. As if to taunt me that the things I’ve wanted were only achievable in this manner. “He walks away from our marriage because I can’t give birth.

Do I want to put a child through all of this? Spending the next several years fighting against Ryan over material things is one thing. But the life of a baby? This is all he’s wanted. Even before marriage, we’d talked about having kids and growing a family together. “I don’t care if

“Oh God, have you even gotten any sleep?” I blurt out shamefully to the tall man before me. Derek’s face is quite tired, but there’s something else being held back at the same time. Does he have something to tell me? Am I fired? Dammit, I hate this suspense. “I was just headi

He really is such an attractive man. “My best advice? Start preparing for a long battle. Be ready with the time, the energy, and the money. I know anxiety isn’t something you can cure with a snap of your fingers, but it can be tamed.” I turn my head sideways as if to question him.

My jaw falls open and I swear it refuses to return to its position. Why on earth is Derek my screensaver?! I widen my eyes and stare at my boss, incredulous. “Did you look through my phone, Derek?” At work, I’d opt to call him Mr. Anderson. But something about this has me stating his

“My girls really do like you,” he’s saying as he finishes looking through the pictures. “Oh?” I ask, feeling like a complete utter idiot as I try to find words to say to him. God, have I never spoken to another human being before? I’m starting to wonder just how bad my mood swings wi

My arms are positively full of groceries. I’m doing my best not to walk into any walls or drop anything as I go. But I’m trying to do this in one trip. I look around my pile so I can see where I am in relation to the front door, but that’s the one mistake I shouldn’t have made because severa

“Yeah, but I understand that adults need time to themselves, and that you work harder than anyone I know. If there was a reason for you to need a night off or you have an emergency, it’s good to know someone’s there, right?” Derek seems to think on this, tapping at his chin as he does. He ru

This can’t be good for the baby. Next thing I know, I hear ringing in my head. My eyes are super weak, and it’s difficult to crack them open. Well then. I guess I was able sleep after all. It’s bright in the room, and I can tell it’s late morning already. My tired eyes look around, finding my ph

I fall to a thunk on the ground, my hip and butt taking the brunt from falling out of my bed. My eyes are still mostly closed, but I know what’s going on. The nightmares are here once again. I know the cold sweat and the feeling of being clammy. And it seems like it’s all falling back to one thing

I sigh. “If you can’t issue the order, then legally, there’s nothing you can do. So even though he’s been harassing me, showing up at my house, all of this? He’s still able to get away with it.” “Bullshit,” he sneers. I get into everything, explaining Ryan’s appearance earlier in the week, the w

Working from home is a little easier than just getting through the day. I got permission to stay out of the office for the rest of the week. Getting lost in the information and phone calls is better than brooding over my ex. Friday is busy, but having taken time off, I blow through all my notes, c

Even I’m not this heartless. How could I ever want that for anyone, even for such selfish people like Melinda and Ryan? “Ryan left me because I lost the baby. I went to the hospital. When he got there and I told him what had happened…” she bites her lip, tears falling down her face. She crosses he

“Why the hell are you calling me?” I snarl. “I’m going to call the cops, because this is against the fucking restraining order.” “I know, but please don’t, though!” She sounds desperate and out of breath. I don’t know if I’ve ever heard my cousin beg before. Kind of odd. “What do you want?” “I

My heart yearns for each word on my screen. God, am I just a complete idiot? I keep doing this to him, trying to make the right decisions when they only make me feel hollow inside. Maybe I should have him come over. Discuss everything. Actually have a real conversation instead of pushing what I wa

The past few days have been hazy for me. Trying not to get lost in the daze of emotions has been tough. Derek called and left a message while I took a nap one day. “Stay home, focus on your health. I’ve cleared it with all the appropriate channels.” I’m going to use up all of my sick and vacatio

The police have been through the apartment and have spoken to us individually. While Lily and Annie went inside, I’ve been out here. I can’t move off this stoop. I’m frozen to the spot, and even if I wanted to move inside, I don’t know if my body would let me. “Esme?” I look up at one of the det
