What was I going to tell him? It is like he has already known about it, but wants to hear it from me?

This is what I have been trying to avoid, to face my past. But you can't run from it.

"I don't like when I am being lied to, miss Hayden," he emphasized. I wanted to roll my eyes. But right now is not the right time.

I sighed. "he's my ex."

"I know," he said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. You see guys.

"I have a meeting at 10, you're coming with me," he said.

So that was it? He surely knows how to scare the crap out of someone, I thought he was going to fire me for a second.

"uh... Okay." I said looking around, I have no idea what to do next. So I just stood there.

Awkward.

"you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing," he said after some time. He was looking deep into it.

What was I supposed to be doing? I have no idea, I have never done a job like this before and he knows that. He's probably trying to get on my nerves as he seems to enjoy that a lot. I would

    It felt like the world stopped rotating at that moment. I can't believe it's truly her. But the look on her face proved it. The hatred she has always had for me.Tears slipped from my eyes, I missed her so much. I hugged her.She stayed frozen. I sobbed on her shoulders. "Layla," I whispered sobbing."where have you been? I thought you were dead. I missed you so much." I said crying.She pushed me away from her, i fell to the ground. What just happened?I looked up at her. She smiled bitterly."you're such a great actress, you should go apply for it and I'm sure you'd win an Oscar. You've always been the better one, which is all an act, slut." she snarled.She had always used words that would leave scars on me. I got up from the floor, i noticed a bruise on her hand. "does it hurt?" I said taking her hand to look at the bruise, but she yanked it away."it's funny how you act as your care, and it doesn't suit you, quit the act!" she snapped."I am-" she cuts me off."you have always

    I turned around to see her, just as always she was glaring at me.I was so lost in what just happened. "what are you doing here?" she asked.I didn't bother to answer her, that's not the question she should be asking now."who is that guy?" I asked. "what does he want from you?" I asked and she scoffed. "How is it your fucking business? I told you this before, never interrupt with my life matters," she said arrogantly.She was hurting me emotionally. I wanted to be a part of her life, but she wouldn't allow me."A man was here and he thought I was you." that got her attention. She dragged me inside her apartment and locked the door."How the hell did he find out about this place?" she asked herself. That only made me more curious."what? Layla, you have to tell me, who is he?" "my ex," she said after a moment of silence. Her ex.And I thought he's a serial killer or something. I sighed. We could bring him down, right? All we had to do was to call the cops."If he's disturbing you li

    I looked out the window, seeing the skies, it was fantastic. I sighed as my mind wandered off to Carrie again.I hope nothing bad happens to her while I was gone. And I hope she called me and tell me she is okay.What if she calls me now? She wouldn't be able to reach me! "what are you so hyped up about," he asked. What did he mean? Oh yeah, I was probably hyped."When are we coming back?" I asked."as soon as I am done with the contract," he replied."When is that?" "next week," he said and my heart jumped. I can't be gone for a week.Layla. I internally cried."why?" "n-nothing," I replied almost immediately. I looked out the window again. Praying nothing bad would happen and everything was going to go just fine.I slept off.~I woke up when someone nudged my shoulders. I slowly turned my head to see a lady, Xavier wasn't there. Where could he be?"we've reached ma'am." the steward said. Ah. So he left. One minute it seems he cares for you and the other he doesn't seem to care

    My heart suddenly started beating fast. Why had she called by this time, did something happen? Had that guy come back."L-Layla, are you okay?" "y-yes, how can I not be okay? I'm perfectly fine!" she said. I removed the phone from my ear. She was okay. She was just drunk. I breathe a sigh of relief, putting the phone back in my ear."why had you call?" I asked slowly."I want to tell you something, come over." had she forgiven me...?"do not think I forgive you. I'd always hate you Lily." she sneered through the phone."ugh! Just come over." with that, she hung up. She doesn't seem to be in trouble, did she just want me to come over?I sighed going back to my room. I was in front of Xavier's door when I heard that lady's voice. "Xavier, please. Let's continue." you could tell she was trying to hold him.Why do I feel comfortable about this?"for Christ's sake! We're engaged! This is normal." she screamed"get.out." I heard him grit.I walked closer to the door. This was wrong but my

    My heart almost dropped. I had to go back immediately. I hope she was fine. Oh god. I quickly ran back to the meeting room. They weren't done. Just my luck.I can't wait. I need a quick flight back to Los Angeles. But we were in another country! With tears in my eyes, I walked to Xavier."c-can I talk to you, precisely now? Please." I asked. He rolled his eyes but stopped when he noticed some tears in my eyes."excuse me," he said. before standing up and walking out. Immediately we reached outside. "what do you want?" he asked like it was the most casual thing to ask at that moment. This is not the time for me to get mad..."c-can you book a flight for me to go back?" he tensed at this. Then glared at me."I'm sorry miss Hayden, but that can't be done. We're not done here." he might add I'm sorry, but he didn't and wasn't sorry."please. I beg of you. I'd do anything. You can add to my schedule after this. I-i don't mind." I pleaded. "and what are you going to do back there." I can'

    I moved away from him. What was doing? I looked up at his face, it held passion, love, etc.Did he still love me? But I know I did not have the same feelings I had for him a few years back."uh... Thank you for bringing her here." I wanted to tell him this 'thank you for bringing her here. You can go now. You are not needed here anymore.' But that would be plain rude and stupid of me, especially when he helped. But I didn't feel comfortable around him.I turned back to look at Layla, I was trying to avoid his eyes. I could feel his stares burning through me."she is my child, right?" he asked and my heart stopped. I knew he was talking about Carrie. Oh god."w-who?" I asked playing dumb. He might have already found out. Now I can't help but feel scared that he might take her away from me.He was going to reply when his phone rang. He went out for the call. I sighed. The thought of losing Daisy is something else. He can't do that.Relax Lily, no one has said anything about him taking

    "You!" She sneered coming at me. Oh god, what was I going to do? She was going to kill me. But why?I have no idea. 'I saw the way you were looking at that female assistance of yours, don't tell me you like her!' Yeah, I think I know. She thinks Xavier likes me.She stopped when she saw my name tag. It was Layla Hayden.But that didn't stop her from giving a death glare. I looked down. I hope she wouldn't fire me. If she does...She turned to a man in the suit. "For how long has she been working here?" She asked him."She has been here two years now ma'am.""Two... Years?" She asked unbelievably."Yes ma'am.""Is she active at work?" She asked. "Yes ma'am. She even won best flight attendant of the year." He pointed to something on my dress. I looked down at it. It was a beautiful badge. I didn't notice that till now."And perhaps, is there any chance that she might have a twin sister?" I froze. "I'm not sure ma'am, her record shows no family member."Everybody's heads in the room

    "Ah, you're awake. Good morning" It was Jack. How did I get here?! I shifted away from him, a look of pain crossed his face when I did that."H-how did I get here?""I saved you. Do you remember?" He was so calm. he has never been this calm.Flashbacks of yesterday ran through my head. She was going to kill me! But how did he know?"I have to go," I said getting up from the bed."To where? Xavier's place?" He said Xavier's name with disgust.And yes, that was where I was going. To see my child."Carrie is here." He said.What?! That means he has met her. But I still have to leave this place, there was no way I was going to stay here.I pretended I didn't hear him, you could tell he was growing angry and irritated. That's how he has always been. He gets angry quickly."Leave, please." I pleaded. I had to get ready. His jaw clenched before going outside.Immediately after he left I ran to the door, locking it.I quickly had my bath. It was funny because all my clothes had already been

    "I-isn't that too soon?" I asked not because I didn't want to get married to him. If there was a priest here right now and everyone was okay with it, I wouldn't have hesitated.But Xavier, was he okay with it? Like I mean... "It's not." That took me off guard, seeing that it was coming from Xavier, he would also get married to me if there was a priest here. I smiled. "See? It's not. Don't worry about this Lily, I've got this, you just relax." Xylia said with a huge smile on her face and the others agreed.To say I was happy was an understatement, I glanced at Xavier who was busy with his phone. Seriously?Soon we were done eating, I had wanted to help them at least do something but they wouldn't let me do a thing.Jessie has changed her attitude towards me since she heard about me being pregnant and I don't know how to feel about it.I saw Carrie running around with a little boy and a girl, they must be Xylia's kids. They were so cute. good looks do run in their genes. "Ahhh." They s

    "Why? It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." He said. "Well... You don't remember anything from that... Night." I said trying to sound confident but failed miserably."I do. You think I have bad memories like you do?" He said and I scowled.The nerves."Well..." I said lost for words, so he does remember. What the hell is wrong with my brain. I had always forgotten about stuff."Well?" He said, the smirk never leaving his face. "Can you close your eyes?" I asked and he raised an eyebrow but did it anyway. I walked slowly to the bathroom, looking at him as if he was peeping, immediately I got into the bathroom I closed the door. I heard him chuckle.With a sigh, I quickly put on my clothes and came out. He was still on the bed."Uh... You can use the bathroom now, there's a new toothbrush in there, come out... When you want to." I said. I was just seriously lost for words. "Hmm." I heard him hum.I quickly rushed out of the room. Why do I feel like that?! You gotta get used

    I placed my hands on my face, trying to hide the fact that I was crying and blushing. I sniffed a couple of times.I felt him bringing me closer to him. "What did you want to tell me?" He asked raising an eyebrow.Oh yeah. That.How should I say this? It was so overwhelming. I sighed. "I'm pregnant." His eyes widened for like three seconds before they beamed with happiness. Taking my hands in his. "That's great news, I feel like the luckiest man on earth." He said kissing my forehead. This was a dream come through... Dream? You dreamt of this?! My subconsciousness screamed at me.Well... Maybe only once. But just in case this is all still a dream, I don't want to ever wake up. "And I feel like the luckiest lady on earth," I said and he chuckled.I like it when he does that."You do?" He asked pecking my lips. "Hmm hmm." I hummed and wrapped my arms around his neck and licked his lower lip.I don't want this to ever end. It felt so good.We finally broke apart. I sat down back on my c

    I got out and walked not waiting for his reply. I just had to clear things up.Getting into the store, I bought a pregnancy test kit. I have gotten pregnant before, but I just want to be sure if I was pregnant or not.What if I was? This was so overwhelming. By the time I had reached home, it was already 4:22 pm. "What took you so long? You had me scared." Layla said immediately I got into the house.Her face held so much relief. "I... Uh, ran into an old friend." I said. She looked at me suspiciously before nodding her head."Did you get it?" She asked. I know her and I know that there were so many things running through her head, that she wanted to ask me questions."Yes," I said going towards my room direction, she called. "Lily?" I turned towards her and hummed. "You know you can tell me anything, right?" She asked.Yes, that would make our relationship stronger. "Yes," I said with a smile before I walked to my room.I had bought three pregnancy test kits.~My eyes widened lookin

    I was in an empty room alone with Layla. It was dead silent until she sniffed. I was on a rollercoaster of emotions. Why can't everything just be fine? Why can't I have a normal life? My Carrie... She must have been crying now, oh god.After Lester had spoken earlier, he got a phone call and went out, saying he would be back, it's been two hours since he had left.Does Xavier know I was missing? I hope he knows, I hope he would be able to find us before it's too late because Lester might as well kill us, he is a psycho.The door suddenly flung open revealing Lester, a huge grin plastered on his face. "Miss me? Cause I sure missed you both." He said with a smile, it made me sick.He walked up to us at a slow pace and sat down on the chair he had sat down before which was close to where we sat down and he grinned again.I wanted to know if Carrie was okay. Is she? "Where is my child." I asked and his lips formed an 'O' "Oh, the little girl? Don't worry she is fine." The way he said it

    "We need to talk." He replied before I could answer. Yeah, we need to talk.If only I could just remember at least a thing from last night. I blushed thinking about what we had done. I've been blushing a lot lately. "Hey, it's ready, you can come and eat now." I snapped my head up to see Layla.Two months later:It's been two months since that incident occurred, and it has been two months since Xavier and I have been together.My life has been pretty normal and I've got used to the fact that Xavier and I are together.I lay on my bed, I was sleepy, I've been sleeping a lot lately."Mommy." I heard a voice call. "Hmm?" I hummed still not getting up. "Mommy wake up." I couldn't bring myself up, I was so tired. "Mommy." She called again. It was so unlike her to call me like this. If everything was okay, she would've just laid on me.I opened my eyes slowly seating up. My eyes widened when I saw a guy looking at me amusedly. Jesus. "Finally up, sleeping beauty?" He mused. "I've always

    What does this mean? Was my question now, does it mean we are a little voice cut off my thought."Mommy!" I turned around to see Carrie running up to me, I looked behind her, it was a smiling Xylia. Was she for real? She was so beautiful, beside her was a little girl's hand, she was so cute."What a great sight indeed, seeing you two together warms my heart. And we had a great time with Carrie, right Cara?" She asked the little girl beside her and she nodded her head frantically and giggled."I'm so sorry, I forgot about the meeting up with you after the dinner," I said as soon as I remembered what she had said earlier."Lily, you don't have to be sorry, I should be the one saying sorry here... I came at the wrong time, I'd go now." She said as she took a hold of Daisy's and Cara's hands."Hey, you-" before I could finish she had already walked out. "You wanted her to be here? At this moment?" No, but I wanted to get to know her. She is nice and seems fun to hang out with. "No, but

    What does this mean though? Are we dating already? Of course not silly. Then why had he brought me here?"I-is that why you brought me here?""Yes.""Are we dating?" I don't know where that came from, it slipped out of my mouth.He looked amused. "No.""Then... W-why do I have to see them?""They wanted to see the lady I love." He said bluntly. Oh, a blush crept to my face. I smiled shyly, tucking my hair beside my ear. But then I remembered his mother.No doubt she hated me. I bent down and carried Daisy in my arm. "Come." He held my hand, i blushed harder.We stopped at a table. I noticed how his mother's smile dropped when she saw me.My stomach churned. "Dad, meet Lily..." He looked at me before he continued. "My girlfriend."His girlfriend?!"Such a beautiful young lady! Nice to meet you, I'm Xander." He introduced.No doubt he was a kind man, unlike his wife. She looked at me weirdly before faking a smile. "Nice to meet you again, Lily." She said.Xander raised an eyebrow at Car

    We drove for like 40 mins, we stopped at a huge mansion. I thought we were going to a restaurant or something. He came out and walked passed me. I scowled.Holding Carrie's hand I trailed behind him. There were men in suits, they stood at the entrance of the house but they separated when I was about to pass. Whoa.I quickly passed, entering a big building, some people were arranging the hall, maybe they were going to be a party, I guess."Yeah, this is her." I saw Xavier talking to a lady, she nodded at me and motioned for me to follow her. I raised an eyebrow confusingly before I followed her.We reached a room, i walked in with her. Did he bring us here so we could sleep here? Of course not, why would he do that? I sat Carrie on the bed. "I suggest you go take a bath now." She said.Why? "I'd be right back." She walked out. I slapped my face frustratingly. I moved to the door where the bathroom must be. And there was a bathtub, I'm pretty sure they had kept something inside that wat
