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
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
“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
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
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
My first day in London was cold enough to be forgotten. The weather was horrible, and my legs were shaking like a pair of noodles. Things in London are so different from my hometown. Everyone is from top to bottom and no one stays still, while there are so many lights around the city, that sometimes I am blinded by them. Before this change in my life, I lived in a town called Bunbury, a town where nothing at all ever happens. So I was very lucky to be sent to cold London. My arrival in this city which seems like a dream was somewhat sad. I didn't have anyone to pick me up from the bus station, but despite being alone, I'm still happy to be in this city and to be able to work in one of the biggest hospitals in London. But despite having good luck, I realized how difficult it is to take a taxi in this city, because it was crazy, maybe because everyone works and is always busy. I paid £3.5 to stay in a crappy hotel, and even though the hotel room wasn't that expensive, I was immediately
But then I think about my boss, who may be a forty-year-old grumpy guy who has a lot of experience. I immediately deduced that he would be a great man, since in medicine it is very difficult to be one of the best, without having spent years and years of study. “Come.“ Ross grabbed my arm and pulled me hard. She seemed to be very nervous, as she dragged me towards the nurses' station. “Fix your hair.“ She runs her hands through my hair, trying to fix it. “He's coming.” She sighs nervously while I try to understand why he's making so much fuss. Seconds later I understood what was happening. Luxurious and clean shoes, perfect suit, white coat, upturned nose, eyes that kill, bushy eyebrows, and that mouth that caused an orgasm when seeing it. “Doctor Mark!“ Say all the nurses who are in his path. “Good morning.“ Ross said as he passed by us as if we were worthless. “Good morning.“ The doctor answers with his raspy voice, while I already feel threatened by his incredible demeanor. “
Dr. Mark had kissed me. I can't help but be surprised by it since I thought he hated me. His lips slowly detach from mine, while his hands leave my pants without saying more. Then he fixes his robe and leaves the cubicle without saying anything to me. He leaves me alone while my head tries to process what just happened.“Why did you allow him to kiss you? “ I scolded myself as I hit my head with my right hand. Before leaving the cubicle, I fixed my uniform so that no one would notice what had just happened in the place.And as I left the cubicle, I ran into Ross in the hallway, who looked quite worried about me, after spending quite a bit of time in the cubicle.“What happened? “The blonde asks me, looking at my pale face. “It seems like you saw a ghost. “She ran her thin hands over my forehead, trying to see if I had a fever or some other symptom that could be related to the medicine, but I just was falling prey to excitement and surprise.“He...”I was going to tell her what happened
