Skyler's P. O. V " Let me in Skyler." Patrick murmured against my lips. "Please." I shuddered, not knowing what to do. He coaxed me with his lips, even has his hands touched places. A moan escaped my lips and his hold tightened on me. All of a sudden my senses came running back and I snapped my eyes open. " Patrick stop!" I yelled, pushing away. He looked at me, suprised. I looked away, my body shaking. " I-i can't let you. I'm sorry." I whispered and got out of the water, desperate to be away from him. He didn't move from where he was. " Why are you doing this!?" He said after a while. I stopped but didn't turn. " It's, it's better if we just stayed away from each other. " I said and I hated myself for the words that came out of my mouth. Too late to go back now, I added. " Goodnight." Something squeezed my heart so painfully, tears slipped out of my eyes. Without thinking, I ran out of the place.... Getting into my room, I slammed the do
Skyler's P. O. V Just like Randy had promised, he sent the address of the bar and I arrived at it. Walking inside, I began looking around for him. When I didn't find him, I met with one of the workers who directed me to where he was. Nodding my thanks, I walked to the direction where they pointed. And there he was, his head on the table as if he was sleeping and a couple of bottles in front of him. They were right, he was dead drunk. Taking a deep breath, I walked towards him, lightly tapping him on the shoulder. " Hey... Wake up." I muttered but he didn't move. I made him sit up and he groaned. " Come on Patrick, I have to get you out of here." " No. " He muttered, his speech slurry. " Go away. Leave me alone." I searched his pockets and found his card keys, he had come here with his car. I contemplated dragging him to his car but with the way he was drunk, that would be impossible to do alone. I quickly requested for help and one of the workers were kind en
Skyler's P. O. V Shifting uncomfortably in my seat, I tried not to look at Patrick's direction. His gaze has been on me since the meeting started. Even though I dared not glance at him, my body still prickled. What if he remembered? That question hasn't stopped haunting me. I desperately hoped he didn't, I don't think I can bear a confrontation from him. Mr Kentucky, the owner of the company was talking about a bunch of things I didn't quite get but they were mostly based on Patrick. As the meeting was rounding up, he asked Patrick if he was satisfied with the operation of his company and would like to continue to continue their partnership since he's proved their transparency. Sitting up, Patrick cleared his throat and began talking. " Well, I am greatly satisfied with the operation of this company and would love to continue with the partnership. " He replied and Mr Kentucky beamed. " That's great to hear. This is one partnership that will greatly benefit both
Skyler's P. O. V Sitting in my apartment and crying my eyes out, I couldn't help but think about what will happen today. Today Patrick would be leaving to New Jersey and I did nothing to stop him. I'd probably never see him again and if I did, he wouldn't want me. How could I have let this happen? I was about to go into another round of tears when my phone rang. I stared at it before sluggishly picking it up. A part of me wanted it to be Patrick. It wasn't him. It was Evelyn, a friend of mine who had introduced me to Mr Kentucky. I dried off my tears, sitting up. Taking in deep breath, I picked up the call. " Hey..." I called out, my voice hoarse. " Hi.... Are you okay? You sound weird." " Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little sick." " Oh, okay." " Why'd you call?" I asked, clearing my throat. " Uhmm, since you're not longer working with Mr Jamison, I thought maybe you'd like to come with me to Singapore, we could find a job there. " She announced.
Skyler's P. O. V " What!?" Evelyn asked. " How's that even possible?" " I slept with him while he was drunk and left before he could realise who I was. " I replied, cleaning off the tears. " How could you do that? " Evelyn asked. Shaking her head, she added, " Who is this person anyway?" I took a deep breath, shuddering. " Patrick... Patrick Jamison." " Mr Jamison? Your former boss? But, he already left for New Jersey! " " Exactly! How am I going to tell him I'm pregnant for him if he doesn't even remember he slept with me? " I said, looking up at her. " Oh my God... This is worse than I thought. What are you going to do? " " I don't know, " I muttered, staring ahead. " I really don't know." We fell silent for a while until Evelyn glanced at her watch. " Oh, shit. Our flight will take off soon. But you can't go like this. What are we going to do? " I sighed, standing up. " I'll have to stay behind then." I replied. " You go, I
Sylvia's P. O. V " Skyler, are you pregnant?" I asked but Skyler didn't say anything. Picking the rest of the things from the floor, I held her hands and dragged her to her apartment, watching as she opened the door. We walked in and she sat on the couch, not meeting my gaze. " I asked a question Skyler, are you pregnant?" " Yes! " She suddenly screamed. " Yes, I'm pregnant. " She said, her eyes glistening with tears. I was gobsmacked. " For who?" I finally asked. " For Patrick." She muttered, her voice barely audible. My mouth hung open. Skyler, pregnant for Patrick? How did that happen!? " H-how?" I stuttered. She sighed heavily, before telling me everything. I could only stare at her, too shocked to speak. " How could you let that happen!? How could you have gotten pregnant for him?" I said once she was through. " I don't know okay? All I know is that I'm pregnant and I don't want to be a mother yet." Tears streaming down her
Skyler's P. O. V " Skyler, is it true you're pregnant?" He asked and I gulped, all the blood draining from my face. I stared at him for a long time, unable to say anything. Eventually he gave up asking me and walked right in. " How did you find out?" I found myself asking. " How are you even here? " He didn't look at me, just glanced around. He stopped when he saw the drugs on the table. Stomping towards them, he picked them up and glanced at me. " Have you used this?" He asked. I shook my head. " No. " I whispered. He picked them up. Looking for and finding the toilet he poured all of it and flushed it down. Then came out, still fuming. Walking towards me, he stopped just inches front of me, his eyes boring into mine. " I asked you a question Skyler. Are you pregnant? " He muttered, his voice low but very angry. I looked down, tears forming in my eyes. " Yes." I whispered at last. " Yes, I'm pregnant." " Why didn't you tell me?" " I di
Sylvia's P. O. V I just arrived home. Coming out of the airport, I made to call Alex. " Hey..." I greeted when he picked up. " Hi. You're back?" He asked. " Yeah." " How was it?" " It was fine. And the meeting was a success." " That's great news. Can't wait to see you this evening." He said and I slowed down. " This evening?" " Oh... Nevermind. Was thinking about the surprise I had for you. " " Really? Then... I can't wait to see you this evening!" I said, squealing. He chuckled. " Bye now. I'll see you soon. " " You too." I hung up, smiling gleefully to myself. Picking up my pace, I hurried out of the airport and boarded a taxi, going home.... I arrived home to meet a very eager mom. She was waiting for me. " Hey Mom... Good morning, or what time is it?" I said and she chuckled, ushering me in. I dropped my bag on the couch and glanced at her. " Good morning dear. How was your trip?" She asked.
