ELIZABETH'S POVQuite a Sunny day!The sun glowed against my skin in such a way that it brightened everything else but it couldn’t find its way to the cold feeling I was having in my chest.I had stood in front of the mirror longer than necessary this morning wondering how I was going to pull this off.I looked to be as the most difficult thing I had done in recent weeks and the thought of it was closing down on my mind clouding it with so much darkness I wondered if it was going to ever see daylight.The cold feeling thawing at my heart slipped down slowly tgtiw my nerves till it was colonizing not just my body but my soul—It was either anxiety or fear, one of the two.I could feel it slid into my stomach throughout the night that I’d lain awake for hours thinking of how today was going to be like at kist it was an excuse from having to think about Cole and debating what I would do.For my conscience, for my sanity, for the baby — doing nothing wasn’t an option— I needed the ba

ELIZABETH'S POVLooking past this man a long trail of air trickled in through the open door, drifting through my hair.I blinked my eyes, my eyelids fluttering.Was I Shocked?Most definitely, that was the only emotion I was capable of expressing at that point in time, nothing more.Expressing emotions was totally the worst thing I would ever try doing—I suck at putting up a good act when it comes down to emotions.From shock to anxiety and so many other emotion that should be quite expressive, all I felt at that moment was shock.Shock about everything yet it remained dormant in me.There was a name for this feeling, a name for how I felt at this moment —NumbI felt Numb—Unable to breathe, unable to speak , unable to do anything.All I did was stand right here in front of this person and could not mutter a word.My heart rattled heavily as my eyes fluttered at face of this man, his cologne filled the air and made it intoxicating.I most definitely felt a rush if it through my veins

ELIZABETH'S POVThis was the last thing I was expecting, and it was happening in the least expected way—The baby was not due to come till next week.It was the main reason why I had fixed my leave to that time, to make it more embarrassing it was coming at a time like this with Adrian right in front of me.My mind was completely taken over by a different type of anxiety, it happened in a way that it gripped me quite deeply in my heart.He lowered me to the car again slowly, he did look like he had no idea about this as he kept on running his hands through his hair numerous times in just a few minutes.His hair looked ruffled as he looked to be panicking.Adrian drove as easy as he could, moving with the car slowly—beating the traffic, following only the traffic light.The trip to the hospital was quiet, he did look like he wanted to know everything going on in my mind but he didn't want to ask.Perhaps, it was fear or anxiety.Why is the baby coming at a time like this? Was it norma

COLEIT had been eternity since she left the truth was I felt a huge part of me leave with her, it was though I was covered with a lot of darkness …every bit if it hovering around me like an snoring darkness looking to sniff the life out of me.That was what it had gad become without her an absolute mess, and there was nothing I could ndi about it, at least not in the way people thought about it or people wanted.Living with Evelyn had been totally hell, it was like like living right with the devil and trust me she feud made life a bit difficult for me.Here I was trying to fix a lot of things that had to do with my life at moment but it did look like she was after just one thing after all this long while and that was spending my money.The truth was I should be dealing with a lot of things now, I should ne trying to get over all of this and that included the past and everything that and to do with it.Yet some how the past had a way if coming back right after me, it had a way for sh

ELIZABETHFive years later…All I could think about was that one kiss.It had barely been a dinner date and he had been so sweet about everything and at the last moment he had kissed me.I had known Adrian for five years now and he had been sweet to Riel and myself, he was the reason why my son had a somewhat father figure in his life but no matter how much I had looked at it I couldn't just fully commit to him.He was rich, handsome and Charming quite alright but we just couldn't work.It had been five good years and it was until two years ago he had loaned me enough money to start a clothing business.Now with all the debt paid, I was living the life of an independent woman right at the edge of the city, that was how I saw myself.It didn't take anything from the fact that I was still hurt by the past.Perhaps, that might be the reason I didn't want to commit.There is this fear of what happens if he turns out to be another Cole .The thought of that had been the major reason why I
