While she was still pregnant, he had already started growing distant but not like ignoring her existence in the house completely like he was doing now.The way he treated her was like a slave who was only around to take care of the baby. Their own baby!He slept in a separate room and was never home. When he got home most nights, he was always drunk and ignored her.He hadn't touched her in months! She found herself worrying why she even married him.

Ruined

Cara was silent. The drive to her apartment seemed longer than she thought. Yet the deafening silence prevailed without competition.On arriving at the entrance of her complex building, Romeo pulled the car to a stop and made to open the door to come down but Cara didn't budge.He stopped and turned to look at her, hands still clinging on to his seatbelt. “Carina?” He called her name softly. “Are you alright?”She turned to look at him, her eyes staring into the magic green orbs he called eyes. “Are you alright?” She threw the question back at him.His thick brow arched skyward. “What? What do you mean?”“Back there, you seemed… angry.” She hesitantly responded, not knowing the words to use and how to put them carefully with each other.His hands finally slipped away from his seatbelt as he relaxed into his seat with a silent sigh. “How could I be alright when he talked trash about you? And besides, what does he know about me to say that nonsense he said? Does he think everyone is lik

Pick Up Your Car

Cara threw on her clothes and shoes as she got ready for work. Her hair dangled in a ponytail behind her while a black skirt wrapped around her curves. A white long sleeved shirt over her shoulders with a black red bottom heel.As she reached for her bag, her phone started to ring and she felt anger dawn upon her as she saw the name Chris on the screen.She didn't know why she hadn't deleted his number after all these months.Taking a breath to calm herself down, she answered the call in a stern voice. “What is it?”“You still have my number saved on your phone.” He said with a calm tone that was highlighted by surprise.“Is that what you called to check?” She angrily questioned him. “Because if that's it, I want you to know that some of us are busy– too busy to be playing games–”“Your car is ready, would you like me to deliver it to your address?” Chris cut her off asking.She swallowed her anger and responded. “No, tell me where to pick it up and I'll be there.”“Okay,” he responde

A Bad Day

Cara went to work in her car, trying to calm herself down before arriving at work. She had a conference meeting and she didn't want her bad mood to affect her business.She parked in the parking lot and remained there for more than a minute.‘What the hell did he take me for?’ She asked herself. ‘How dare he think I am miserable without him? The only reason I am feeling miserable is because I have been seeing him too much lately!’Chris really did think lowly of her. He had expected her to burst into tears and fall into his arms, apologizing for their divorce and kissing his feet in gratitude for wanting to give them a second chance.He refused to accept the fact that he was a terrible husband and a terrible person and that was what led to their divorce. He refused to take the blame for what he did wrong and expected her to fall at his feet and apologize.More importantly, he hated the fact that she was spending time with hot stuff--Romeo--and wanted her to apologize for cheating on h

Cheating Chris

Cara stared at her ex best friend in awe, her expression though remained unchanged. "What?" She asked confusedly. "Warn me? You came here to warn me?" Her eyes creased as she asked. "Yes, don't act so surprised, you ought to have expected this after the recent things you have done." Jessica confidently spoke.Cara's lips curved into a smirk, she crossed her arms below her breast and relaxed into her seat. "Go ahead and enlighten me on the recent things I've done. Go on, I'm waiting to hear your threats."Jessica was engulfed in rage at Cara's confidence in the situation but she refused to let it get to her. She believed Cara was trying to push her to the edge of her patience and she won't let her get her way."Cara Smith," Jessica positioned herself in a confident manner with her back straightened and head held high. "I understand how you must be feeling, yes, it might have been a year but it must feel like a few days to you.""What nonsense are you spewing from that wretched mouth

Tricks

She blinked. Clearing her throat, she managed to rid her face of every look of surprise but not after Cara had seen everything."You think that..." Jessica started but swallowed before continuing. "You really think that I will believe the words that come out of your mouth?""Looks like you already did." Cara smiled. "But hey, eat it up, puke it out, I don't give a f*ck, I already served the meal warm and delicious. Now if there is nothing of importance that you came to see me for, kindly get the f*ck out of my office and my company. Oh and darling? Never step foot in this place ever again or I'll freaking get you arrested!"The look on her face was stern which made Jessica understand that that was no empty threat.She cleared her throat dryly and managed an empty smile. One that barely touched her lips spoke less of her eyes. "I'll get out of your hair... For now. As long as you steer clear of my husband, I don't think we will have a problem.""Yay thanks." Cara rolled her eyes along

Caught In The Act

Jessica listened to the beep sound indicating that he had hung up in a state of awe. She couldn't understand why Mathew would say such words to her.Why were they no longer friends with Chris? Because he chose her over his wife at the time? How could they take Cara's side when they feigned ignorance for so long when they knew she and Chris were always hooking up?What a petty move! She thought to herself. Trying to pretend like they weren't guilty as well."Fine!" She exploded at the phone. "I won't ever call you because I don't need help from shitty people like you!"That must have been the reason her number was already blocked in Max's phone.Hissing, she picked up her bag and threw it on her shoulder. If Chris was anywhere in the world that she knew of then it would be his favorite club.Hopefully he wasn't there.But she dashed out of the house anyway and hurried to the club. Not even thinking twice about her son that was asleep upstairs.Even though he wasn't making a single soun

The Weekend

Cara picked up her bag before closing time to leave. The investors had apologized because they had to cancel the dinner. Each of them were busy with something important that had come up and she didn't actually mind it.She was too tired mentally to even relate properly with them so it was a good thing that they had to call it off."Hello Maisie?" Cara called her personal assistant. "I'll be heading out early, any report you would like to share before I leave?""Can you wait for just five minutes ma'am? I'll be in your office before then with a report." Maisie responded."Okay, no problem. I'll be waiting."She hung up and relaxed into her seat. Five more minutes was no problem.Exactly three minutes later, Maisie was in her office with a report tendered properly. Cara went through everything and was finally done after about fifteen minutes."I'll be on my way now." She said to Maisie who responded with a bow.Getting to her feet, she heard a knock on her door and the secretary popped

Armani Kid

Romeo blinked.It took a moment for him to understand what he had said correctly and the reason she was feeling so flustered. His eyes shone in realization."Oh wait no!" He exclaimed. "That is not what I meant. Okay, uh it's not what I meant to say. What I meant by what I said is that I want you to spend a fun weekend with us."Cara's brows creased. "Us?" She poured confusedly."No, uhm..." He rubbed his forehead and cleared his throat. "Okay. So a few close friends and I-- we knew each other from business and whenever they were throwing a party or hanging out somewhere, they always invited me so I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to invite them too. Anyway-- we are going on a cruise to celebrate, spending the weekend on a cruise ship and it would mean the world to me if you could attend it."Cara sighed softly. A sigh of relief. Why was it so flustering spending time alone with a man? There were women out there who hooked up with strangers and called it one night stands so why did

The Dinner Request

Romeo's brow twitched upward as he stared at Cara who didn't take her eyes off him. Why was she acting like she had just heard something ridiculously absurd about him? And she refused to get off the phone already so he could ask her about it!"Oh uh... I'll... I'll see what I can do about that." Cara hesitantly responded, finally looking away from him. She hung up and slipped her phone into her purse. "Okay firstly," Romeo started. "Whatever they said, I didn't do any of it."She let out a soft chuckle. "What in the world are you talking about?" She continued outside of her office after twisting the door knob open. Romeo followed. "I mean, the way you were looking at me made it look like they--whoever you were on the phone with--said something unbelievably terrible about me which obviously i didn't do cause I am just a little sweetheart." He smiled. Cara looked up at him as if he had just told a lie and his brow arched. "What's with that judging look?" He asked her. She smiled a
