Now Mary was obviously stranded. Why did she even keep her money? She shouldn't have done anything about it and just left it there.

She was truly lost, and all she wanted to do was curl up in a ball and cry. She wished Helena was here; she would know what to do. And she wouldn’t be so careless like her.

But that was not going to happen, there was only one thing for her to do now; she was just going to walk around in search of a job, and maybe miraculously, she would be able to get one, and they would offer shelter to their staff.

But if there was no other option, she was going to find a convent that would be willing to allow her to spend the night. although she doubted it was going to yield any fruit.

She had already passed eighteen years, and that was the limit for getting accepted into a convent.

Mary dragged her weary body along the street, ignoring the nasty stares she got from women and the ravenous looks men were giving her.

Her legs were aching from all the walking. She was tir

    "Want some bread? Jack asked, pointing to the brown bag beside his seat. Mary could perceive the scent of the pastries throughout the car, and it was making her salivate. But she tried her best to hold herself together."No, thank you." It pained her to say the words, but she politely declined. Mary couldn’t trust it; it could be poisoned, for all she knows."Alright." Jack left it be, and they continued their drive in silence. But every now and then, her stomach would growl in protest as it was totally empty, and Mary clutched it in pain. "Are you sure you don’t want to eat? I promise it is not poisoned.""Thank you." She declined politely as she faced the dashboard. She tried to take her mind off the scent of bagels she could perceive, and Jack chuckled at her antics."I understand your fears." Jack said as he opened the bag and took a bagel. He bit into it, chewing slowly. "See?" He opened his mouth to show Mary. "Not poisoned. Here, have some."Mary looked at the loaf he was offer

    The man whose name Mary didn’t know stood still for a moment, his hard-on long forgotten. He couldn’t stand the tears, as he didn’t know how best to comfort the owners. And seeing this beautiful stranger in front of him crying was putting him off.Although he paid for sex, he liked the sex to be enjoyable between the two parties. It was better that way and more pleasurable, and at the end, they will both be satisfied. Also, the other party wouldn't have to scream raped.He stood for a moment, watching her cry her heart out, and he wondered if this was her first time doing this. If it was, she must be having second thoughts about it, hence the tears.But this was beyond a first-timer's experience. Her tears were coming from a place of deep anguish. He moved closer to her, trying to comfort her as best he could."There, there." He patted her back as she continued sobbing. "Just let it all out."Mary’s cry increased to another crescendo. She couldn’t believe she was almost going to have

    Mary left with Jack, leaving Lincoln behind. They entered his car, and this time it was completely silent. Each was feeling the sting of betrayal and lost in thought.Meanwhile, Mary was thinking of what Lincoln had said to her. As she was leaving with Jack, he had squeezed some bills into her hand and a written note with his number."I know this may not have worked as planned, but you can always reach out to me if you are in need, and I will be happy to help." Lincoln had whispered in her ears.Mary had received it with gratitude but was unable to thank him before Jack went out, and she had to follow suit."I must apologize for what happened earlier today. It was wrong for me to assume you would be interested in that kind of work." Jack apologized to Mary, his tone sounding sincere."It is alright." Mary replied. She had pretty much forgiven him when he offered to give her another job. She watched from the window as the car passed them, and anytime she saw a G wagon or a Tesla pass b

    They took the stairs down, as there were no elevators in the building. And as they passed the second floor, Amy said. "There is a strip club on this floor and room for private dances."Mary was appalled by the words; she couldn’t believe that Jack would hire strippers. But then he had tried to pimp her out the first time they met, so it wasn’t all that shocking.Then a thought flashed through her mind, and her eyes widened as she imagined it. "Excuse me,""Yea?" Amy turned to look at her briefly."Does that mean we are also going to be working as strippers?" Mary asked, because if it were so, she was going to have to table your resignation letter now."Hahaha. Your face." Amy gestured to her face as she burst into laughter. But Mary's frown only deepened, not finding it amusing. "No, we don’t strip. Jack has girls working in the strip club. But if you are interested, he can always move you there."Mary shook her head. She doesn’t think she could do that. "No, I think I am okay with th

    They finished the food and sat down on the bed as they waited for it to digest."Won't you be penalized for skipping work to stay here?" Mary asked because she didn’t want Amy to get into trouble because of her."No need to worry your pretty head over that. Jack gave me permission to take the day off. Besides, there is still something we have yet to do." Amy smiled, the little dimple on her left cheek showing, and Mary returned the smile."What?""We have to go shopping." Amy announced with excitement. She loved shopping, but Mary didn’t share this particular hobby."Shopping? With whose money?" Mary's mind began to race. Had Jack seen Lincoln give her the money and wanted her to spend it on clothes? Mary was planning to keep it for future emergencies."Where did you sound so shocked? Jack gave me cash so I could take you shopping." Amy explained as she shifted into the bed."Why? There is no need for that; I already have clothes." Mary argued, trying to look for ways she could reduce

    Amy was right, because by the time they got downstairs, the restaurant was already closing, and there were just a very few people there, finishing up their meal.They help with the general cleanup, arranging the chairs and stacking them on the tables so it will be easier to organize the next day.They finished the job in no time, as there were a lot of hands helping them, and they gathered at the counter. Damon was sharing the leftovers with anyone he cared for, and Amy was able to snag a burger for herself and Mary."Do you want to go to the bar?" Amy suggested again, trying to persuade her friend. She wanted to check if the hot guy she had been eyeing was there, but to her disappointment, Mary shook her head. She wasn’t going there anytime soon."But how do customers enter the bar if we block access here?" Mary asked if she noticed they were locking the front door."There is another door outside that leads straight to the bar, and they will use that to enter." Amy explained, and Mar

    Nicholas woke up from his slumber shitfaced and hungover as hell. Not to mention the splitting headache that was hitting his forehead. Thankfully, there was usually a bottle of aspirin on the nightstand for days like this, and there was also a bottle of water.He had taken to the habit during his bachelor days, when he woke up almost every day with a splitting headache.Nicholas opened the cap and threw two tablets into his mouth, chasing them down with water. He collapsed in his bed, lying on his pillow, as he felt the drug doing its work. And in two minutes, his head stopped feeling like it didn’t belong to his body.He turned on his side, his hands searching the bed for his phone, till he found the cold electronics, and he picked up. "Shit." Nicholas cursed as he looked at the time. It was past 10 a.m., and he should have been in the office by 9.He unlocked his phone, squinting as the bright light attached him. There were different notifications from a lot of people, but he only o

    Mary didn’t end up getting a divorce.No matter how she tried, Nicholas refused to sign the papers. But they got separated.She had moved out of the mansion to get her own accommodations in a bid to find herself. She had gotten a new apartment away from the hustle and bustle of New York City.She was willing to start afresh, and she hoped that the new environment would help.His friends have been against it, especially Helena, seeing she had moved there in search of her and was given a job by Nicholas.But Mary had reassured her that there was no need for all that. Helena had no issue with Nicholas, so there was no need to try to quit her job.But Mary had refused Nicholas help; I mean, there was no need to when she had his credit card and did whatever she wanted with it.But she had chosen to spend it wisely.She had gotten a job as a model for a small clothing line that deals with curvy ladies, and Mary liked every bit of it. She got free clothes every now and then, so it was an adde

    The next day, Mary was no better; no matter how much Nicholas had tried to seek an audience with her, she always found a way to escape. Gone are the days when she was the one begging for his attention.She didn’t have such time; instead, she had taken to exploring—a harmless one, though.It began when Nicholas had come back from work rather early, unlike his usual self, and he found a strange lady sitting in his living room and his son playing around the house.Nicholas was alarmed, and he entered quietly in order not to startle the lady while his hands reached for his phone to call 911."Oh, you are back. Good evening, Mr. Harrington. I will be taking my leave now." The lady stood up to go, but Nicholas prevented her."Who are you, and why are you in my house?" Nicholas asked; he still had the police on speed dial and was ready to call them if necessary."I am the babysitter your wife hired. Here." She stood up and handed him something that seemed to be a card. Nicholas eyed the card

    "Oh fuck." Mary cursed as she saw the doctor approaching her. The only time she decided to unwind and let loose was when he decided to be here.She sighed, lifting her eyes to the sky; only there was a ceiling preventing her. Why was the universe out to get her?"Well hello? Mary, is it?""Oh hi. Lewis." Mary greeted him cheerfully, still slightly tipsy from all the drinks. "Fancy seeing you here?"Lewis chuckled, finding her assuming. "I should be asking you that. I live here, and I am familiar with some people here. You are the one that is sort of a stranger here.""Yea. I live.." She gestured outside the door and frowned. Where exactly did she live again?"Let me pour you a drink." The bartender said to Lewis, already reaching for a bottle of wine on the shelf."There is no need for that. I am not staying long." He refused the drink."Oh, that is alright. You can pour me his share; I would take it." Mary offered and swerved to grab the glass. But a firm hand stopped her."I don’t t

    Mary stormed to her room, bolting the door as she got in and headed straight for the sofa. She dumped herself on it and continued eating from her bowl of fruit, but she was seething inside.The audacity he had. How dare he come back home after so long? The only thing he could say was, "Hey, I got your message."Mary was seething in her seat. Has he always been this nonchalant and uncaring, or has she just been ignoring it all this time? She couldn’t help but wonder.Well, it didn’t matter what the answer was because it ends today. She was done being the doormat he could just toss aside. Starting today, it was a new Mary.She stilled as she heard footsteps coming close to her door, and her ears perked as they listened for movements. But the footsteps stopped just in front of her door, and there was silence.The footsteps resumed, but this time away from her, and Mary sighed in frustration.He was such a coward.If she could have her way, she would have spent the rest of her day in her

    The surgery was successful, and they removed her appendix, but Mary was required to stay in the hospital for monitoring for another day. It was to be for two days, but she had refused, threatening to leave on the same day, so they came to a compromise, and it was for an extra day.She had been away from her son for so long—the first of a kind—and she was starting to get worried. She could imagine he would be crying his tiny lungs out, and she couldn't bear to think of that.She had woken up from the surgery with a foggy head and tenderness in her abdomen, and as usual, she was alone. She didn’t bother checking up on her phone for any messages from Nicholas because it was already obvious he didn’t care.He had yet to reply to her message from two days ago, so there was no way he would be here.With nothing to do, her mind began to wander to different places, but most especially to Nicholas, or rather, her unfortunate relationship with Nicholas.After minutes of deliberating about the a

    The kind doctor, whose name Mary hadn’t bothered to learn, had taken an interest in her, and he had been helping her run the hospital stuff.He was lucky enough to be able to fix an operation for her with the surgeon the next day, so she had to be hospitalized.Mary spent most of the day sleeping in; the drug they had given her was making her feel drowsy, so she didn’t know when time passed by.But the young doctor had taken it upon himself to look into her case, especially when he found out she had no one with her.He had taken it upon himself to always check in on her when he wasn’t so busy, making sure she was well covered and the pillow was comfortable for her, and Mary appreciated the gestures.Her head had been fuzzy from all the drugs they had been pumping into her, and she was slippy in and out of consciousness.She had woken up later in the evening to see her phone swimming in a sea of messages and calls. All from Amy. Mary didn’t hesitate to call her, and she waited as the c

    The mini-get-together ended on a high note, and it was safe to say that the three had become best friends, and Mary couldn’t be happier.It was easy since Helena and Amy had similar characteristics and were able to get along easily. She was happy that she had two females she could rely on, and Cole had two aunties who loved him dearly and would spoil him rotten.Everything was slowly looking up for her; even her academics have been going well. It wasn't as easy as it felt, but with time it had gotten easier for her, and she dare say she was enjoying the classes.But one thing was still stagnant. She and Nicholas were yet to make any headway.In fact, it had become so bad that she couldn’t remember the last time she and her husband saw eye-to-eye. It was Cole who had been keeping her company; otherwise, the house would become too suffocating for her.At least she had Netflix, and there was always food around, so she used that to comfort herself.Mary has been feeling some pain in her s

    While Helena may not be living with them, the girls were still communicating as Helena was able to get a new phone and they had gotten really close.Mary had been the happiest since Amy came back, and she was happy to have her friend close by. Everything seems to be looking up for her.It was just to introduce her friends to each other that was left. Amy had no idea how Helena looked, and neither did Helena. Although Mary has mentioned them to each other, she has been planning how to bring them closer so it would be a sisterhood.It was the weekend, and that means Nicholas was out of town for a meeting. I mean, when is he never out? Mary barely sees him nowadays, so she arranged the meeting at her house.She was preparing the meal that they were going to have, all while praying that they liked each other. It would make her life easier if it were so. At least Cole would have two aunts, and he could be taking turns passing the night at their house.She had put the last batch of muffins

    Helena is here.The words were something Mary thought she would never hear, and it was as if they weren’t true, but her childhood friend turned sister was in the living room, sitting and waiting for her, and Mary didn’t know how to act."Get your act together, Mary; it is just Helena." She said to herself as she stood in front of the mirror.It had all begun when Cameron called her that one Helena was in his home and wanted to see her. She hadn’t believed it at first and thought he was playing a fast one on her, so she had asked him to bring her over.And it turned out he wasn’t lying. Helena was actually heard.But she saw them as they were getting out of the car, and she panicked and ran to her bedroom."It will be fine. It is just Helena." She said to the reflection of the mirror, and she heard Cole huff as if in agreement with her.She went towards her son, who was attempting to stand on his own, and she picked him up. He let out a cry, angry that he was disturbed. But Mary ruffl
