The next morning, a beautiful sun wakes me up, dazzling my washed-out face. I feel very happy and complete. Dr. Mark is no longer next to me, so I get up and put on his slippers and his wool sweater that covers me enough to go out to the living room.I look for him like crazy and when I get to the living room, I realize that he is sitting there with a new navy blue suit and his robe. He seems calm reading the newspaper, with a smile I approach him while my bare legs are more attractive with this sweater.“Good morning.” I unexpectedly placed a kiss on his cheek as I sat on the couch and tried to draw in the warmth, running my hands along my arms. He looks at me very little, he seems cold and not the same as last night.“Take a shower and you can take something from my closet.” He told me coldly.“What are you talking about?” I say without understanding, while I look at him.“I want you to leave.” He tells me furiously. “I don't want you in my house anymore until I need you.” You under
I know Liza is not my daughter, but I love her as if she were. Her father was too selfish with that little girl of hers, that I couldn't leave her alone, so I made sure she was comfortable.I filled her room with things I bought with her father's money, well whatever I earned by sleeping with him. Decorate her room as if it were a princess's, from the sheets to the curtains, also buy her a small white table where she could put all her medicines, and also a small mirror so she can look at herself whenever she wants.The nurses who take care of her helped me persuade her as I put all this together. After her, they brought her with a blindfold covering her pretty hazel eyes. She entered the place with a smile on her mouth, and when he untied the blindfold, her eyes lit up with happiness, and she even covered her mouth and gasped, “What is this?” She asked in disbelief, while she looked happy.“Surprise!” I say smiling.“Did you do it?” She asks me with tears in her eyes.“Princesses shou
The next day everything was different, Dr. Steward's lips stayed with me like a sticker. Nothing was the same anymore or so I thought, perhaps because I still had the taste of his lips in me. I stayed with Ross at the hotel all night, to take care of her and her children.The next morning, I got up early to get ready for work, of course, without waking poor Ross, who was still asleep. I was glad to see her rest, since as far as I know, Ross has never taken a vacation; She is always responsible and hardworking.After getting ready, I left the room quietly so as not to disturb anyone's sleep. Then I took a taxi that took me to the hospital. It was the first time I could afford a taxi, it was quite comfortable to travel in this one, while I didn't have to worry about thieves or missing the right bus. Upon arriving at the hospital, I found the nurses gathered in the room, seeing a small pink sign."What's happening?" I asked Alice, who is very aware of what the sign says.“You won't belie
“You have to go!” Ross yells at me from the bed, while she tries to convince me to go.“Why should I go? Do I look like one of those girls?”The truth is that I did not want to fall once again into the traps of Dr. Mark or anyone else, my pride was already devastated, and I could not receive another atomic bomb like the one that happened with that heartless man.“Go,” she begs me, as she stops eating some of the jelly. “You'll have fun, you'll look beautiful in a pretty dress.”She tells me smiling, while she imagines me dressed in a big dress.“And who will take care of you?” I asked her, folding her clothes, while I tried to convince her not to continue insisting.“I've taken care of myself for so many years, you don't have to worry.” I didn't want to, but Ross's look won me over.“Okay!” I agreed, rolling my eyes. “But I won't wear a horrible dress.”She smiles at me still. So I changed my uniform, to put on black pants and a simple wine-colored T-shirt. Then I leave the bathroom u
We got to his house as quickly as possible, he even left his car parked badly, since he was in a hurry. When we arrived at the entrance to his apartment, he carried me in his arms as if I were a princess, and with this beautiful dress that I was wearing, I think I was one in front of his eyes.He cleverly opens his house, while he leaves his things on the couch. Then he takes me to his room, climbing the steps quickly, while he still holds me in his arms, my cheeks begin to turn a little red, as I watch his muscles tense around him.Upon arriving at his really clean and spacious room, he takes me in front of his bed to lie down on it delicately, while he runs his lips along my neck, making me feel in heaven, and then puts his hands on my breasts on the dress.He slowly tears off the beautiful dress, but my kind heart doesn't allow him to do it, so I stop him.“Don't destroy this,” I beg him between kisses. “It's Abby's.” He ignores me and breaks it in half, shushing me with his tongue
One way or another, my heart broke in two knowing that Liza was in trouble. So I got into Dr. Mark's car, to go quickly to the hospital. I felt guilty as he drove fast through the streets of London. I couldn't imagine a world where Liza wasn't there, but I knew that sleeping with her father wasn't the solution, I don't want her to look at me and be disappointed in me.Upon reaching the hospital entrance, he throws his car keys to a nurse who is leaving the hospital. We immediately ran to Liza's room, but we didn't find anyone there, so Dustin asked a young woman from the administration about her daughter's whereabouts, she very kindly told us that the little girl had been taken to intensive care. So we both ran towards the place while trying not to fall with the plain shoes we were wearing. (Shoes with a plastic sole are usually used, which prevents people from falling in hospitals since the floors are usually waxed.)Unfortunately, they didn't let me in even though I'm a nurse. The o
Although I wanted to be at the exact moment when Liza woke up, I couldn't be there. I felt so bad for doing the wrong thing at that moment. Today was my only day off where I could relax, but all I wanted to do was buy a dress like the one Abby lent me, to try to thank her for how good she was for helping me.I had to take the bus to go to a nearby shopping center, but luckily I ran into Dr. Steward, who almost collided with me.“Victory!” He takes me into his arms, while I am surprised.“Doctor Steward?” I replied, somewhat embarrassed. “Excuse me, I was just going to take the bus.” But right at that moment the bus left in front of my nose. “Damn!” I cursed and then snorted angrily.“Where are you going?” He asks me with a white smile.“I was going to buy a dress, I had a mishap with the dress that Dr. Miller lent me, so I want to reward her with another one.” Dr. Steward has always been very nice to me, so it doesn't seem strange to me that he proposed the following to me .“Do you w
In reality, my heart and my pride were in the same place, in the middle of me and I couldn't even recognize myself in the mirror. Who was that woman who had fallen in love and fallen in love with Dr. Dustin Mark? Of his lies, of his bad temper, and her insults.Now I don't know if I feel worse than a woman who cheats, or like the trash, I will always be in that man's eyes. I will never be a proper woman to bear his name or his surname. Maybe if I were like Dr. Abby I would be, but now that I'm showering and cleaning every trace of his being, of my body, I realize that I never wanted to get here.At the end of the bath the dream also ended, I didn't want to do this anymore, it was like a drug that you can't quit, and when I'm conscious I feel bad for having ingested it. But I will do it or he will do it. I gathered all my clothes while he was sleeping threw out the dirty clothes, and then looked for my clean clothes. Today I had to work, so I got dressed slowly, and when it was five in
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. 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
