THIRTY ONE

ELIZABETHThe party sucked but I smiled through it, the introduction with the ex had gone way better than I had anticipated and that was thanks to Jason steering her away from her direction.“what do you think?” I asked Mara as we both sat at the VIP table overlooking the other guests.“I want to go home, soak my feet in some stress relaxing warm water with cheeseballs in one hand and then watch some TV program until sleep finally comes knocking.” She whispered to me earning the disapproving stare of a woman on our right, no doubt on of the aunties.She stuck her tongue out at the woman and I laughed, trying desperately to hold it in.“I’m sorry that I dragged you all the way here, I really should have just let you go with that oddly vivid description of what you would love to be doing at the moment.” I said smiling sadly at her.I could feel the beginning of tears and blinked my eyes furiously,Stupid pregnancy hormones.“the reason why I am here is because of women like that looking

THIRTY TWO

JASONI would agree with Elizabeth, days later that the party indeed sucked and the only reason I was able to still be at it was because of my father and her.The introduction to my father had gone better than I expected, maybe it had something to do with his cancer and the fact that it was also his birthday but he gave no trouble at all which was something for me to be worried about, I made a mental note to talk to him after the circus of a party and know his thoughts.The remaining of my family members were nowhere to be seen and so Mara, Elizabeth and I decided to stand over at the island and get a drink at once. Of course, Elizabeth went for water because she was now pregnant and had to avoid anything at all that would affect the baby inversely.“look who the cat dragged in” my sister called.I hadn’t seen her in a long while and so we hugged before I introduced her to Elizabeth who had a big smile on her face.“oh look, it’s the surrogate” she had said.My hands stilled in anger

ELIZABETHSomething was wrong… I had no idea what it was but as I lay in my bed in Jason’s family house, I knew something was wrong.I suddenly felt it, the reason I had woken up in such a panic, a sharp jab in my stomach was enough to get me sprawling on the ground so I could crawl away from whatever was causing me pain.I saw it… the blood, trailing me from the bed and onto the ground as I cried.A blood curdling scream tore from my throat as my knees buck and I fell, crying and crying.It was a big house so chances were that I had not been heard. I slapped a hand to my mouth crying as I frantically looked around for my phone.I was losing the baby, something had to be done, all these and more ran through my mind as I finally located my phone and dialed Jason’s number, sobbing.“Elizabeth, are you okay?” he asked, I had woken him up from sleep.“I...I…don’t… please come, I am losing the baby.” I cried, the phone falling from my hand.It was only a matter of seconds before he burst i

THIRTY FOUR

JASONThe chances in young females who have never given birth are low and also for virgins, the only way we can be sure is if you are to have actual sex with the lady…The doctor droned on but it was fine to say that I was not listening to him, my thoughts were filled with concern for Elizabeth and how she was taking this worse than I was.The call from her had snapped me to attention and seeing her in a fetal position on the floor, trying to protect the baby was my undoing. I did not want to think about what could have been but what was right now and my plans were to make sure I did everything to make her forget this unfortunate incident.“are you listening to me, Mr. Rodrigues?” the doctor asked after some time.“you were saying?” I responded, still not listening.“you have to have actual sex with your girlfriend if you want her to get pregnant.” He said.“I hear you doctor and we will consider that, just please make sure nothing happens to her.”Mara was waiting inside the room wit

THIRTY FIVE

ELIZABETHI was discharged from the hospital with strict warnings to watch myself for the next couple of days, Jason had been most supportive and sometimes when I was still in the hospital, I wondered if it was all a dream and I would make up and realize I had just been imagining the whole scenario including the loss of my baby…My baby? Was that what it had been? Is that why I was this devastated, I thought“A penny for your thoughts?” Jason asked, smiling into my eyes.Why was he so happy? I thought fleetingly.“why are you happy? Shouldn’t you be sad about the baby, just like I am?”“oh, do not mistake the smile on my face for happiness. I am sad that this did not work out but I just need you to rest and then we shall talk about what we shall do next.” He said.What we shall do next? Could he have been more obvious about his dismiss of me?I kept quiet throughout the whole ride and pretended to be asleep because I did not want Mara worrying about me or Lucien giving me the side eye

THIRTY SIX

JASONI hit my head in frustration and headed to the island… I needed a damn drink, a very strong one.“what did you do to her?” Lucien asked, following me.“damn if I knew, she has been like that since the whole incident happened and I am really trying to be the strong one here. Does she have any idea how much I am blaming myself at this moment?” I asked mixing myself something strong.“maybe this time around you could show it? I believe she is hurting and needs someone to hurt with.”“when did you become such an expert on these matters, dear brother?” I askedHe was right, I was hurting in more ways than I would care to admit. I had desperately wanted just this once to be a father and it wasn’t that we could not always try again but it just put a dampen on my hope.“what do you think I should do?” I asked.I could not believe I was actually asking my brother who, a month ago was actively doing all he could to soil Elizabeth but it seemed that since the time he left, something had ch

THIRTY SEVEN

ELIZABETHYou would think that after the conversation we had and after the kiss we shared, that Jason and I would be on level ground with whatever was going on between us… well you thought wrong.After the conversation with Jason, the next day he decided to resume work. According to him, he had a lot on his plate and could not continue to wallow while more work piled on for him. It was just a ploy to get away from the house and me because the next day, he was looking everywhere else but at me and even when I had tried to engage him in a conversation, he had barely added two words before going to his work area.It was as though he was embarrassed about sharing what he did with me last night and he did not want a recap of it or for us to get any closer. I was hurt and told Mara about the whole everything.“you might be overreading meaning into his actions. I am sure he does have a lot of work to do.” She said, reassuring me.“I know he does Mar but I cannot help but feel that he is runn

THIRTY EIGHT

JASONThe sight of Elizabeth was driving me crazy… hell the mere thought of her was enough to send blood rushing to my lower region, I was a gentleman but not where she was concerned. She had me stuck in the eye of a needle but was blissfully unaware and ignorant of it, which did nothing placate my aches.I had tried avoiding her for these past few days by staying at the office till it was late and even visiting the club to check on their progress, something I delegated to Caleb, my assistant but even her scent lingered everywhere in the house.She must have noticed my ever grumpy mood and always kept her distance most of the time. Today was no exception, I was thinking of her and barely concentrating on the report in front of me. It was like a disease that I wanted to rid myself of but every time I would imagine some scenario in my head and think of what she would say too.“Jason Rodrigues, you are going crazy” I muttered to myself, shaking my head repeatedly.“it is quite obvious yo

THIRTY NINE

ELIZABETHMara was true to her word and came over with a bag of clothes, she had gone shopping without me but that was fine, I did not think I exactly had it in me for the walking and trying out clothes. She bought me a red and extremely short dress while she got herself a black number, matching pair of panties and heels so long, I could barely walk in them.“I invited some of my friends over so we can all go to the club together.” She told me.“what friends?” I groaned struggling with the shoes.“Hermes and his girlfriend Athena; weird names, right? Apparently, their parents thought it fitting to name them after Greek gods or something. Anyways, Hermes has a car and is going to be driving us to the club and then from there to any other place we would like to go. Tonight, we party.” She squealed.I wished I shared her optimism, it was quite true that I had been bored out of my mind these past few days and hours ago, I could do anything to get out of this house but right now, I just wa

FORTY

JASONIt was almost noon time and I could hardly wait to be done with work and go to the club for some relaxation, the plan was for Lucien to meet me there but I was going to call him and confirm his availability, I did not want to drink alone. I got up and walked to the window of my office and looked out, I had a very great view of everyone and everywhere bustling with activity. I could see a woman trying to calm a wailing toddler down and a man standing far apart from them but watching, he was no doubt the father and did not want that sort of drama. She was saying something to the child who suddenly stopped crying and then she brought out a dollar bill from her purse and handed it to him, he bounded away to the nearest candy shop, smiling like he had not just been crying some minutes ago.There was another couple too, holding hands and I wondered immediately why I could see myself and Elizabeth, walking side by side and hand in hand like that one day… it happened suddenly though, on
