Spirals: Tattoo in my mind 51 Thanksgiving
BRYNE There’s so much I’m thankful for. I open the door for my mom and I help her out of the car. Today is Thanksgiving and we’re spending the day at Bailey’s mom’s place. “It’s been more than two years since I’ve been in Greenville” my mom adjusts her dress and smiles widely. “Bryne” Bailey runs to me and throws herself on me. I hook my arms round her waist and close my eyes. I’ve missed her so much. She pulls away and looks at me deeply, so deep that my heart is already melting. “Happy Thanksgiving, I’ve missed you Rhino” she whispers and kisses my lips softly. My mom clears her throat and Bailey steps away from me looking already flustered. “Happy thanksgiving Bailey, it’s been long” my mom pulls her for a hug. “Happy thanksgiving to you too mom” Bailey says and they pull away from their hug. “Thanks for taking care of Bryne, even though he’s a jerk sometimes” my mom tries to whisper the last part but I still heard her. “Thanks too mom, I know he can be annoying sometimes

BAILEY Bryne looks at me and I know what he’s thinking, Jordan hasn’t gotten over Audrey and I don’t think he’d ever get over her. Audrey’s eyes land on Jordan and for a second her eyes widen and she pauses in surprise. She looks away almost too quickly and turns to speak to her mom. Jordan eyes is still fixed on Audrey and I look back and forth between Audrey and Jordan. God! This situation is amusing and I think it’s amusing to Bryne too. “You know what Jordan, you’ve been eye-glued to Audrey since she got here, just cut the drama and go talk to her” Jordan actually takes his eyes off Audrey for the first time since she got here and looks at me after I say that. “Yeah man, it’s obvious you still love her” “Do you think she’ll want to talk to me?” Jordan asks “Yes” I pat Jordan on the back “Oh, that’s great because I won’t talk to her!” Jordan turns around and Bryne looks at me with an equally confused expression. “What’s wrong with you Jordan, sometimes you just need to let

"Don't get all like that on me Jordan" I laugh and I'm sure he's rolled his eyes already."Bailey" "Oh my God! Aunty K" I turn around and hug my aunt very tightly and she laughs. "I've missed you, where did you hide yourself" The last time I saw her was when I was about to start college, I miss her so much. She once lived with us during our childhood and she helped me with so many things, I used to call her my elder sister then because she looked young, she still looks young though."Too tight" she pats my back and I loosen my grip on her."I missed you too Lee, you're all big now, look at you" she pulls away from me to have a better look at my body. "I always knew you were going to have beautiful curves"Bryne walks past us and sits beside Jordan on the table."You have a lot of talking to do, first about that hot guy" she whispers We walk to the table and she goes to talk to my mom. I sit directly in front of Bryne and Audrey is beside me. "You didn't tell me Jordan was going to

Bryne gives me the last plate and I put into the plate rack. He didn't let Kara and I do the dishes, he insisted that we do it together. Kara already left the kitchen a while ago because she couldn't stand seeing us get all 'lovey', little Devil!"My mom and I are staying at my dad's place here, we won't go back to Charleston till next week. I can't get enough privacy with you when she's around" Bryne leans on the sink beside me. "We'll figure that out, we'll try not to be loud" I chuckle and he folds his arm smiling."How possible is that" he quirks his brow up and I roll my eyes"I'll try to be less loud" I add "The whole weekend is just for us, no fighting, just us" he intertwine his fingers with mine and drops a light kiss on my hand. "Come on, we're done here, let's go"He leads me out to the living room where my mom, Ms Kendall and Audery's mom are. "Mom, I'll be leaving now" Bryne says"Okay sweetie, I'll be staying with Ms Halsey this night, the three moms' are having a than

"How was your week?" Bryne asks"I met Cole-ouch" I scream as a sharp pain passes through my knee."Are you okay" Bryne sits up immediately and I nod."It's just my knee" I relax my knee but Bryne uncovers the blanket and keeps my knee on his laps and starts massaging it gently. "Ouch!" I exclaim as he touches the spot that pains me the most. "Sorry about that, does it hurt here?" He touches another spot and I shake my head in negation. "Have you taken your pain relief?" "I'll take it later""I'll get it for you, where is it?""Over there" I point at the other couch and he goes over and brings it, with a bottle of water as well."Thanks" I swallow the pill and he gets the bottle of water and medicine bottle and keeps on the table.He comes back to the couch bed and continues the massage "I'm just happy you didn't hit your head when you fell from the stairs"."I'm happy too, everything just happened quickly, I was on the third step and then I see myself rolling down and hitting my kn

I stare down at the pregnancy strip in horror.I don't know how to feel about this. It's scary! I can't be pregnant, I'm on birth control pills. Could some skipped days cause this? "Fuck" I place my hand on my forehead and shut my eyes tightly together. My whole life was about to start and this? I feel like crying but the tears aren't coming out. On one hand I'm happy about this, Bryne, the father of my child, he shouldn't find it difficult to accept but I don't want to pose anything on him. Both our lives are about to start for me to bring this up now. I'm finally about to start a lovely job and Bryne is about to take over his dad's business and join the elite club and this. I sniff and throw the strip into the bin. I don't know how to tell him about this, I'm not even ready to tell him yet. I hope he isn't awake yet.We'll work through this, that's what he always say whenever something goes an opposite way. We'll work through this.I place my hands on my belly and stare at my r

BRYNEI pull up at my dad's driveway and Kara immediately gets down. I'm so exhausted from the shopping and I honestly wonder how women do this thing and not get tired.Kara is worse than Bailey when it comes to this, we've basically bought so much that there's almost no space in the car for the bags. I know Bailey will be angry when she sees this but how did she expect me to handle Kara, Kara that literally scares me.I bring out some of the bags and Kara brings out some too. "Wow! So you guys lived here when you were younger" she stares at the building and I laugh."Nah, I spent most of my childhood with my nana, I don't think I've stayed for up to a year in this house, that's why we all call it my dad's house" I struggle to open the door and Kara follows me in. I drop the bags on the couch and go back to get the rest. I pack so much and Kara does the same but the bags doesn't finish. "We'll get the rest later, let's find Bailey to check out these stuff first" Kara rubs her palm

BRYNEI lead Bailey into her house but she doesn't respond to me. She has been this way since she got conscious and I hope she gets better. I'm so happy she was discharged, I wouldn't stand spending another hour in the hospital. Kara has gone to my dad's house to get all the shopping bags over to Lee's house. I can't keep her at my dad's place, my mom may come home anytime and I cant explain anything to her yet. Bailey goes to her room and I follow her."Lee please talk to me, say something, anything" I can't bear the silence. "I was just so careless, I couldn't-" I wrap my hands round her waist and pull her to me. She can't blame herself for this, she shouldn't take all the guilt to herself. I'm at fault too, I didn't listen to her enough to understand. She sobs quietly and I rub her back. We'll work through this, I know we will. "Why didn't you tell me?" "How could I tell you, I was scared" She sniffs and I tip her head up to look at me."I told you I want to be involved in

"Hello mom" I say impatiently. My mom always has a way to interrupt us. There's shuffling at the the other side of the line "Hey B, uh can you guys come over for dinner at dad's place, sorry for the late info I totally forgot"No way. "Mom, it's not possible" Bailey hits my side lightly "You can't turn your mom down" she whispers"You're with Bailey?" My mom asks. "Yeah""Great! Please put the phone on speaker" I roll my eyes and put the phone on speaker. I know Bailey can never say no to my mom and my mom knows that too, that's why she wants to talk to Lee. I already made a great dinner for the two of us, but Bailey won't think about that, of course it's my darling mother. I roll my eyes again and Bailey hits my arm."Hey Bailey, I know it's already late but can you guys come over for dinner at my place? I would've done this later but my husband already booked my flight back to Georgia and it's tomorrow" my mom's persuasive voice sounds and I'm sure it has already convinced Baile

Bryne.I need her to understand that losing our baby wasn't her fault, I need us to go back to being us before the miscarriage. "Thanks Bryne, for every thing, for being my back bone, for being more than a boyfriend, for being so gentle with my heart" she maintains eye contact with me while stroking my face with her thumb."You don't need to thank me for taking care of you, you're my responsibility Lee" I kiss the inside of her palm. "let's go eat""Bryne I- okay, let's go eat" She steps away but I grab her hand and bring her closer. "What do you want Lee" I whisper over her ear and she claims my lips in a slow kiss. I want to go at her pace, I need to go at her pace even though all I want to do is to grab her and make her scream my name multiple times. She looked so sexy in the dress this morning and it took me all the strength I had, to stop myself from responding to what she was unconsciously doing to me, when she kissed me, I almost couldn't control myself again and then she sc

Immediately I get back to my office, I sit on my chair and remove my shoes. I don't think I can survive another minute in this shoe. I sigh in relief and massage my feet once I take the shoe out. It's been four hours of intensive practice and thank God for the lunch break else I would've died inside that room. I got to watch other journalist do other shows and I was given instructions about how everything is going to happen. Honestly, I can't wait for Friday and from the look of things, Baddie can't wait for Friday either. Baddie really made the whole practice interesting and I already feel so relaxed with him. Baddie says he likes that kind of atmosphere and so do I. Baddie reminds me of Derrick, when everything is settled, I'll take Derrick's lunch offer. Baddie walks into the room smiling. He sighs and slumps into his chair. "Hey we could have lunch together. There's this place at the corner of the street, it's pretty good"."Maybe next time, I really can't walk in this shoes, m

BaileyBryne pulls up at the parking lot of the building. Today is Monday, my first day at work and the excitement isn't as much as I expected it to be.Bryne squeezes my hands and I smile. Bryne has been everything since I lost our child. He has been over caring and I'm just so surprised at how perfect he's holding everything up in this situation. I hope my sour mood isn't going to affect my first day at work, I don't want to give out any first impression of being grumpy. "I know you'll do great" Bryne hands me a jar of cookie and I want to decline but it's my mom's cookie and who dares decline it plus he won't let this slide as I strongly refused to have breakfast. I take a bite and another and another till I'm done with four cookies. Bryne smiles, handing me a bottle of water. "Thanks" I gulp down the water and check my self in the mirror again for the 100th time today. You can't blame me for that, appearance matters as a new employee and a journalist at that.

I plop down after wearing my rubber gloves, I dip the floor scrub into the foamy bucket of water and I scrub Bailey's blood stain from the floor of my dad's kitchen.Today is Saturday and I'm happy Kara agreed to keep Bailey company even when she's supposed to go back to college today. I told the housekeeper and the cook not to come here today because I'm sure they would've felt obliged to clean the blood from the kitchen floor which I wouldn't like them to do. My mom told me to pick her up in an hour's time and I hope that I'll be done with this by then. I scrub the floor harder and wipe out the foam to see if all the bloodstain is gone and I repeat the process after seeing some stubborn stains still on the floor. I've not discussed the plans I have for the company with my mom yet even though I'm sure she'll be uninterested in it as usual. Sometimes I wonder if my mom actually loved my dad because shortly after my dad burial, she moved to Georgia to be with Khaka, her boyfriend wh
