“Hijos de perra!” Harry and I shouted as we walked across London. In reality, we were already overdrinking, and of course, we would do it just like that. After I finished drinking and shouting, Harry left me at my apartment, but before he let me open my door, he made me look at him intently. I know we're both drunk, so a lot of what we say now won't make sense tomorrow.“Victoria.” His breath smells like alcohol, but despite that, he smells pretty good. “Do you know something?” He asks me with his red lips so close to mine, while I feel somewhat attracted.“What?” I asked him, trying to push him away, to open the door to my apartment.“I think you'd look better with me than with Dustin.” I try not to fall into this game of finding someone to blame, so, also a little drunk, I tell him:“Harry, you should go home, it's late.” But he doesn't think the same way I do.“Listen to me!” He shouts, putting his hands against the door, blocking my way. “You and I have to be together!” I just lau
Work will always be work and even though I hate that idiot, he's still my boss. So I do what he asks me to do all day long. Our conversations didn't become personal again, so I acted like a nurse in front of Dr. Mark.When break comes I go to the cafeteria, and when I arrive I see the cooks happy to see me.“Nurse, Victoria!” A young woman yelled at me from the kitchen, so I ran to the kitchen when she saw how happy she was.“What happened?” I asked with a smile on my lips, while I looked at them very happily.“Her cookies sold so well, people are asking if there are more. Don't you want to do some more?” I just nod my head happy to help.So I go behind, to give the cooks a hand, since I'm quick, and my cookies come out well-made and hot. The doctors and nurses at the hospital bought many cookies, and even the people who were in the waiting room couldn't resist the smell of the freshly baked cookies.When everyone finished eating, the cafeteria was emptying, there were only two tables
I had never experienced these types of symptoms in my life. Neither the dizziness, nor the tingling going through my entire body, but I know a lot about that sensation since I am a nurse and many people have felt it, and that is never good.I'm still worried about what happened with the lady from human resources, so even though I was very tired, I opened my eyes and screamed:“Boss!” Out of nowhere, I hit myself with something hard, and I fell instantly. Then I noticed that I was lying on a stretcher, and the thing that hit me hard was a palette of notes that a doctor had in her hands. “Ouch!” I expressed in pain, while I ran my weak hands over my hard forehead.Then I heard a melodious voice behind the paddle, and when she removed it from my sight, she let me see a woman with red hair and pretty honey eyes.“Don't worry, the boss isn't here.” She mocks me while she tries to make me feel less worried.“I'm sorry.” I apologize as I try to get back into bed, but I feel uneasy.“You don'
I had to leave the city as soon as possible, but before leaving I had to talk to the head nurse, because if she fired me before then, making the trip back to my hometown would be a waste of time and money."It's great that you're here!" She told me energetically when I showed up the next day. "I wanted to talk to you about your dismissal." I just swallow while I sit in a chair in front of her. "I won't say goodbye to you from the hospital.", because a doctor asked me not to do it.” He tells me while wrinkling his nose.“Dr. Steward?” I asked her confidently since he always defended me against her.“No, Dr. Mark.” I'm just surprised, what is that doctor thinking?“The truth is that I am a little doubtful,” I commented to her now looking at my belly, which is not big at all and is almost flat.“What are you talking about?” She asks me, passing a candy through her mouth.“I suppose he wants me to stay out of some pity, but I have to tell him that I will have to return to my hometown for
The weeks passed quickly, and I was still thinking about the abortion, even when I tried to stop it. My mother called me every night, telling me that it was a good idea to have an abortion.Seeing Dr. Mark didn't help me either, every day seeing him and knowing that now I'm carrying his child and that he can't know that he exists, it's hard.I drown my sorrows cooking in the cafeteria and I cry every time I make my famous cookies that are a hit in the cafeteria. When I finish, I know I will have to return to reality. My job is not easy, since I have to take long shifts, this time I had to be with Dr. Mark at night. Without a doubt being with him made me nervous. He didn't make a pass at me again, maybe I hurt his pride, but he has mine so crushed that I no longer care one bit about what he feels. As I am making my rounds around the rooms, I run into Dr. Steward, who is also making his rounds.“Victory!” He calls to me when I try to avoid him, so I continue on my way without looking ba
I was never able to take care of myself alone, so taking care of 324 now is a little more difficult. Eating at my regular hours and resting was not my best option since the work is demanding and I suppose that for now, I have to raise enough money so that when 324 is born, he will have a good life.My schedules are not the best in the world, since the head nurse has taken it upon herself to punish me for all the problems I have had, so of course she sent me to the night shift.The night shift is not only at night, but I also have to be with Dr. Mark in the morning, since I am his assistant. My work with him ends at five in the afternoon, and the night shift begins at eight at night and ends at five in the morning.I haven't been able to sleep well, even though my break is in the cafeteria. The owner of the hospital has offered to pay me to work there on my breaks, I think I have made more money as a cook than as a nurse.On one of my thousands of night shifts, I encountered a patient
Several weeks later.Knowing that Liza has forgiven me has been the best thing that has happened to me after knowing that she was waiting for 324. My heart is now beating strongly and I am in a better mood, even though I still don't lead a healthier life. Food is always the problem, now 324 won't accept the food I give her, so I visit the bathroom several times a day. My stomach hurts a lot now, and sometimes I feel like I'm going to faint, but I manage to stay up for 324.The work has always been hard, since I started working here everything has become very tedious, but now that Dr. Mark ignores me all the time, his indifference is difficult to ignore, since he is now more rude than before. When I talk to him, he asks me to be quiet and constantly tells me that my voice is annoying.I do nothing but just do what he says. In a professional sense, I can say that I am more encouraged since the owner of the hospital has asked me to work part-time in the new restaurant that will be built,
The next morning, the sound of my IV machine started ringing, I woke up scared, but Ross silenced the noise by pressing some buttons, while the IV continued to flow.“I was scared.” I told her putting my hand on my stomach.“Silly.” She says, laughing a little at me. “Doctor Patricia told me that I can discharge you.” I smiled happily. “So I will take away the IV and give you clothes that I brought from home.” She was an angel in my life. She treated me as if she were just another patient, so she put me in the shower and then changed me as if she were a child. I was happy that someone was paying attention to me.“It's time for you to go home.” She tells me, looking into my eyes, “You have to rest, the boss asked me to tell you.” Now she is trying to comb my black hair, while I stare at her.“It seems like she already found out that I'm pregnant.” I didn't want her to hate me more, but it seems like she doesn't hate me so much now.“The whole hospital knows it. “I close my eyes cursing
The next morning.I wake up faithfully happy, my eyes staring at a broad-shouldered figure, as I run my hands over her smooth skin. He kisses my neck passionately and I can smell his skin.“Tell me one more time,” I ask him while I mock him, I know he doesn't want to be mean to me, so he does everything I ask while making me believe that he is going to love me all his life.“Do I have to do it?” He asks me as he raises one of his thick eyebrows.“Yes.” I answer as I move between the sheets happily.“It's okay.” He runs his hand over his face, clearing his voice. “I love you, Victoria.” Now he says it heavily, while I scream, which fills the entire room. His house is so big and clean, that I suppose his fine bed makes me feel like a queen, but I can't help but see that I bring life to his room.“God, I love that you say it!” I said, running my hands once more down his back. “I love you, Dustin.” I guess kissing him every minute makes his lips break. He just scoffs, but I help him say a
I pack my bags quickly, while I'm listening to my mother scream at the top of her lungs.“What do you intend to do? Do you think he will still love you? Even though you rejected him?” Thousands of insecurities were going through my mind, I guess she was a little right, but she didn't stop packing my bags. I grab my son and take him to the car.“Don't go, Victoria.” She begs me as she grips the car door tightly. “He will reject you and if he loves you now, it's because they have his child, don't confuse it with love.”I was about to listen to my mother, maybe she is right, I have had these problems since I met him, he is a person who cannot be loved instantly, but when I look at my son, I realize that everyone deserves a second chance.“I'm sorry but if I don't try, who knows what will happen tomorrow.” I get into my car and without leaving a trace, I leave Staithes. I still remember my mother screaming, reminding me that Dustin would never love me, but if he didn't love me, he would l
“Father?” Liza tries to get her father's attention. “Stop this!” She asks us while she sees us angry. I guess it's not the best scene after a reunion of so many years.Austin just leaves the place fuming from his ears, while I stand there stunned by what he just told me. Will he take my son away from me? So scared, I also fled the place, getting into my car without even saying goodbye to Liza. So, very scared, I drive six hours back to my small fishing village, where I will at least be somewhat safe, away from him.When I get home, I take my son up to our room, and I notice that my mother is not at home. While I put Austin to bed, I take off his clothes, and when I take off his jacket, something falls to the floor. I ignore everything to cover my son, who always suffers from the flu this season. Afterward, I prepared food to get out of that difficult ordeal. I don't want Dustin to take my son from me, and I even less want him to start investigating my whereabouts. I pray this is just
The next morning I woke up early as always, I packed my bags and the car to go on a trip. It's my first time leaving Staithes, so I tell my mother I'd take Austin on a little holiday, so he can forget what happened at school. She agrees with me, while she knows that Austin is the most important thing for both of us.Before we leave, my son goes into her grandmother's room to say goodbye to her, while I wait for him in the car, while I turn on the GPS. My son returns to the car with a letter in his hands, but I don't pay attention, he just keeps it in his pocket.The journey from Staithes to London by car is five or six hours. My son couldn't even last half an hour of the journey, and he fell asleep like a baby. His eyes and his skin reminded me so much of Dustin and Liza, and even though I have never lived with Dustin, I feel like I can smell his perfume as I run my nose across his skin.When we arrived in London, the air was blowing hard and the rain was drenching everyone outside. A
Several years later.I wake up to the sound of the doorbell, so I get up without shoes and run to the door that is ringing more than once. When I open the door, I find the postman, who brings my letters every Monday.“Hello, Victoria,” the old postman greets me, while he tries to keep his bicycle on the road. “You got three letters.” He tells me with a smile on his old lips.“Thank you, Tay.” I replied, closing the door and opening my letters. They are all about payments, so I let them fall to the floor while I look at the clock, it's already six in the morning, so I run to my room and put on clothes for the cold.Then I make breakfast, and when seven in the morning strikes, I return to my room and wake up my dear son.“Hello, love.” I say lying down next to his black hair and long eyelashes. “Austin...Austin.” I try to wake him up, while I run my fingers over his brushed cheeks. “It's time to go to school.” "I whispered in his little ears, so my little boy opened his big honey-colore
Dr. Mark has been so cruel to me more than once that I can't even count how many times he has humiliated me, but when he tries to love me, he does it completely in his own strange, twisted way.I always say I won't fall into his hands, but he has me tied around his fingers, so I have no escape. He came into the shower with me, at first it was strange, since it had been so long not being together for more than seven months, my inner self was too happy, so much so that it wanted to jump even though I was pregnant.His hands passed all over my body, giving me massages that made me enter a different dimension. My head completely blacked out, his hands and soap running all over my body, including the parts I knew would make me sigh loudly.“No one has ever given you a massage like this.” He tells me as he runs his hands along my back, while he slowly eases himself into me.“No.” I tell him with my eyes closed, while I grip my hands in the porcelain tub.“As a doctor, I know the weak points
“Enough!” I screeched tired of his games, while now he is nice I know his kindness will end when the sun rises.He slowly kisses my unsuspecting lips, while I close my eyes without hesitation.“Just give me this chance.” He whispers to me with his champagne-scented breath. “Give me one more night.” He asks me as his brown eyes fill with tears.I fall exhausted before his nostalgic gaze, while we both undress completely, to share a small tub where he massages every part of my body, while the most obvious hiding places of my body are found with great ease by that clever man.“Why are we doing this again?” I asked him as he pressed his forehead to mine, and our breaths became one.“Because I want to.” He answers as he smiles and kisses me, so we can get back to the fun of our game.I gave myself completely, while I knew that he was enjoying the love of his father, but when the sunrise, I realized that this was over very quickly. Spending an entire night with him made me realize that mayb
The days and months passed quickly, like a breath in the air. My stomach was already very big, seven happy months of enjoying 324 inside me, without a doubt I suffered too much since I needed someone by my side in difficult times, but I only had myself and the help of 324.The restaurant was completed when it was exactly seven months old. My joy in knowing that I would cook and be half the boss of the place made me happy, but on the other hand, it hurt me a lot that Dr. Mark made my life impossible. What more did that man want from me? If he has already taken everything from me.The good thing is that these last seven months he has spent ignoring me, for me it was fine since then he wouldn't hurt me, although his indifference still bothered me, I had to put up with it.The day the restaurant opened, I was very happy that we finally opened the doors, to the public. That day Dr. Mark did not show up for the opening, since he had a lot of things to do, so I opened it together with the di
The next morning, the sound of my IV machine started ringing, I woke up scared, but Ross silenced the noise by pressing some buttons, while the IV continued to flow.“I was scared.” I told her putting my hand on my stomach.“Silly.” She says, laughing a little at me. “Doctor Patricia told me that I can discharge you.” I smiled happily. “So I will take away the IV and give you clothes that I brought from home.” She was an angel in my life.
