Damaged Chapter 21: the Secret Life of Amory Williams - Spin
I’ve been at this damn club every night this past week, and I’m still no closer to getting Loyalty to talk to me. She’s got a lot of people on her payroll since tonight is Saturday and she is not even here, but I don’t recognize any of her staff present. The staff is easy to distinguish since they all wear crisp white short-sleeve button-down shirts, black bow ties, and black shorts. I see Charlene by the bar, so I turn back into the smorgasbord of bodies and grab a young and ditzy-looking waitress as she goes by. “Hey, do you need a drink sir?”, she asks me all flirty. I pulled her close and told her, “among other things. Can you tell me how I can reach the owner”? “She’s usually in her office upstairs. She doesn’t work in the club on weekends. If she’s not in the office, she’s in her apartment right next door! The door is always unlocked, so if she doesn’t answer when you knock, open the door and yell for her”, she tells me with a wink. “Her name is Amory Willi

I wake up to Jonny already here, he has Stephany dressed and ready to go. “Say morning Mama”, he says to my daughter as she straddles his lap and he raspberries into her neck, making her giggle. It says a lot about a man who is willing to take care of a little girl. It says even more, when it’s someone else’s little girl he’s willing to take care of! I headed back to my room to get ready for the day and as I walked back out of the bedroom, the front door opened in front of me, and in walked Spin. “For fuck’s sake, Spin”, I snapped at him. “Knock”! “My wife and daughter live here, why should I?”, he responds without apology. “Mama”, Stephany squealed as we reached the living room. “Ready to go Gabby?” I said. “Airplane YaYa”, she tells Jonny. “Airplane?!”, he says, playing along. “My princess wants to fly”?! “Fly YaYa, make Gabby fly”, she tells him. He gets up from the sofa with her and flies her around the room before crash landing in my arms

As soon as I rise, I hop in the shower, then grab Brenda and we ride my bike to the car dealership where I get talked into buying a fully loaded hybrid Subaru Crosstrek. From there, Brenda goes with me to some kids’ store and picks out a converting car seat. Because my daughter is already two, I get one of those that you keep in the car permanently until the kid grows out of it. I also got persuaded into buying a stroller, and since I doubt Loyalty will let me just carry my daughter everywhere, I consider this a good thing. It was after two in the afternoon when I finally showed back up at Loyalty’s apartment, and knowing that the door was unlocked, I just walked right in. “For fuck's sake, Spin”, I heard Loyalty say from behind the door. “Knock”! “My wife and daughter live here, why should I?” I snap back while she just rolls her eyes at me. “Mama”, Stephany squealed as we reached the living room. Jonny sits on the couch with his feet resting on the coffee tabl

Since I struggled to sleep all of last night, I spent all day Monday in bed. My parents spend the morning with my daughter and head back home in the middle of the afternoon, leaving Jonny to tend to Stephany. I head down to the club on Monday night, and things are relatively normal. Like my life is starting to get back on track since Spin showed back up in it. Speaking of, I haven't heard from him since he left on Sunday, but it’s not like we have each other’s numbers or anything… But weren’t we supposed to race?! As I was about to leave the apartment on Tuesday, there was a knock on my apartment door. That’s weird, since everyone usually just walks in, it’s always unlocked. I opened the door skeptically to find a man standing there in a suit with a clipboard in his hand. “Can I help you”? “I’m looking for an Amory Williams”, he says. “That’s me!” I answered. “Amory Williams, also known as Loyalty Hart, you’ve been served”, he says as he hands me a Mani

On Monday morning we all headed back upstate. I stop by the garage and make sure things are in order, signing off on whatever I need to. Brenda can handle the rest later! I stop back at the house to grab clothes and plan out how I’m going to work out giving three years of anniversary presents to Loyalty. I know it’s odd that I still got her stuff when she’s been tryna divorce me, but we’re still married and that was something worth celebrating to me until the very end! Brenda takes care of the court matters, and since we know exactly where Loyalty is, we can send the marshal right to her to serve her. It’s Wednesday when we all head back down to Brooklyn. I haven’t heard from Loyalty since Sunday night, but then again, it’s not exactly like we have exchanged numbers or anything… Not that I’ve changed mine! I’ve been checking up on her through the video link, and every time I do, Jonny is with her. Sunday night he slept on her couch. On Monday he actually left for a pe

I wake in the morning still exhausted! My mind is in overdrive debating the options. My phone won’t stop dinging from Jonny’s family texting me about the afternoon barbecue. I peel my drained ass from the bed and stumble out of my room… It’s sooo early! As I get to the living room, I find both Jonny and Spin each passed out on the sofas. “Well, isn’t this the most hysterical of bromances I’ve ever seen”, I say loudly, stirring them both out of their sleep. “Have a good night boys”? Jonny smirks at me while Spin glares. “Come on Jonny, we gotta go! If Nina or anyone else texts me one more time I think I’m going to snap”! “Who is Nina, and where are you going?”, asks Spin. “Nina is my mother and we’re supposed to stop by her house today”, Jonny says. Spin raises a brow at me as Stephany waddles into the living room and throws herself on top of Jonny. “We're going to see Nay Nay”, she says as Jonny snuggles her. “Yeah princess”, he tells her. “Put you

“Well, isn’t this the most hysterical of bromances I’ve ever seen”, Loyalty says loudly, causing me to jump out of my sleep from where I dozed off on the couch. Jonny sits up from the other sofa when she says, “have a good night boys”? I don’t find her amusing right now, my neck is killing me and since Jonny does this regularly he probably slept on the more comfortable of the two sofas. “Come on Jonny, we gotta go! If Nina or anyone else texts me one more time I think I’m going to snap”, she says somewhat aggressively, but he chuckles. “Who is Nina, and where are you going?” I asked. “Nina is my mother, and we’re supposed to stop by her house today”, Jonny says, as my daughter stumbles into the room, still half-asleep, and tosses herself on top of him. “We're going to see Nay Nay”, she says as Jonny snuggles her. “Yeah, princess”, he tells her. “Put your bathing suit on under your clothes, okay”? She nods and heads back the way she came without even offering
Damaged Chapter 25: Heading to My Hometown - Amory
I woke the next morning to a quiet house, Stephany still asleep in the bed with me. I take a shower and dress in a pink backless spaghetti strap sarong wrap midi dress and a pair of matching heels. I walked out to the kitchen and started making pancakes! Jonny is the first one up with me. I swear he is good at like four hours of sleep. He gets the coffee started, then hugs me from behind. “You look beautiful this morning, mi Amor”, (my love) he says before kissing my cheek. I chuckle and say, “funny, I feel like shit! I have so much on my mind, and I think it’s time I got some stuff off my chest”! “Okay, let's hear it”, he says as he takes a step back from me. “Spin needs to hear it too”, I tell him. He nods, taking in what I’ve just said, and fixes his cup of coffee. Stephany joins us, and Jonny gets her a glass of watered-down apple juice and a few pancakes from the stack I’m still working on. She eats them with a bowl of strawberries. Spin finally wakes a
