It wasn't until evening that I left Daniel's room and it was because I got a text from my dad to meet him in the living room."Do you have to go?" Daniel groaned as I attempted to get to my feet."What do you seriously expect? We've been together for the last five hours. I got a text from my dad." I sighed, "don't worry if I can, I'll sneak in here and we will spend the night together.""Uh, best trip ever, this is the kind of work I love to do, getting paid while doing nothing but spending time with the woman I love the most." He leaned forward to try to kiss me when his phone also notified him that he had just gotten a text. "It's your dad and he wants me downstairs as well.""Ugh, I wonder what's come up now. " I clicked my tongue and hopped off the bed."You go on, I'll catch up with you guys later." He said.I nodded at him and didn't bother to go to my room first, I just smoothed the wrinkles on my clothes out.Dad, Danny and Henry were waiting downstairs for me. "Hey dad, what'
I had no idea when I slept off but when I woke up it was night time. I blinked multiple times trying to make sense of where I was and then realised the pain I was feeling in my ankle and everything suddenly came back to memory.I sat up properly in bed and reached for my phone beside me. I flinched when my bedroom door came open and looked up to see who it was, "Daniel?""Henry, actually," her came further into the room holding something in his hand and coming further into, "hope you are doing better now? Does your ankle still hurt? Do you think you can walk properly?"I smiled at him, "trust me I'm fine, see?" I wiggled it in his face. "I'm fine don't worry too much about me.""Good to know you're doing fine, I've been coming to check regularly but I didn't want to wake you up." He handed the pack to me, "your dad asked me to give these pills to you.""Ok thank you," I nodded at him."You must be hungry, you've been asleep all day I'll bring you something to eat so you can feel bett
Daniel povIt was only a few days but it seemed like forever since I had been at my apartment. Just as I got out of the bathroom, I could hear the finishing bits of my ringtone playing , running the towel through my hair, not bothering to wrap one around my waist since I was home alone.I picked my phone up and the phone call ended. It was Jennifer. I still had my heart unstable from her father's claims and what he had said. I decided to put my clothes on and return the call. The man had not given me the chance to say goodbye to her. Just asked me straight to pack my things and ordered a driver to take me to the airport.When I had on my clothes I laid on the bed in my shorts and tank top pulled my phone out and how the number again there was no answer. I thought maybe she was upset with me for not picking up earliery.I couldn't stop thinking about her the whole time. I didn't think it was fair of her dad to ask me to stay away from her especially because he had no right to be such
Daniel povGetting ready for work the next day did not seem like it normally would, I was actually reluctant to leave my house especially after my encounter with Mr Jenner last night I felt like he was going to lay me off sooner than later now that he had suspicions that I probably had feelings for Jennifer. Well better start looking for another job that could maintain my luxurious lifestyle.I tried to call Jennifer this morning but her phone number kept taking me to voicemail so I gave up. She has not returned any of my calls from last night and the only conclusion was that she was either angry or her father had put something in her head against me.Wasn't she at least curious to know why I left? There was just so much work for me on my desk because it was Mark that I left for a business trip so thankfully nothing at piled up and I just had to look at the most recent advertisements that we were going to be placing when a knock came on my stall. "Who is it?" I raised an eyebrow in c
I immediately went after Jennifer this time around I wasn't really bothered that there were so many people looking at me. It was crag to me how quickly I lost her in the sea of heads but then I found her taking the main exit, I immediately went after her, holding her wrist to stop her when I caught up with her but that was a mistake because with her free hand she slapped me hard across the face and turned around to leave. It was a struggle for her because regardless of the pain stinging on my face, "I'm not letting you go until you listen to me, let's go somewhere, coworkers are watching ""Let them watch!" She snapped at me and yanked at her wrist again, breathing heard. It wasn't my intention to hurt her, but letting go of her was not an option right now. "It's not what it looks like, you have to trust me.""So what is it then!" She shook her head and smiled sarcastically, "oh my God Daniel we were only separated for a day, you know I was starting to think oh hey maybe you actuall
JenniferMy phone buzzed in my hand when I got to Stella's apartment. It was a text from Daniel.'i just spoke to Sarah to need to give me a chance to explain myself, where are you?'"Stella's." I simply texted him. There was a huge that was off about this place and I wanted someone to know where I was at least. Not like she'd kill me or anything.I turned my location on and knocked on the door of her two bedroom she shared with her college roommate.She opened up in her night gown, her usual bubbly behaviour vanished."Hey." She sighed."Well so you going to let me in?" I raised a brow at her. Things were already as awkward as they could get, she didn't need to make it even awkwarder.It was already past seven and one of the main reasons I had agreed to come here was because even when I wanted to listen to her side of the story I basically had nowhere to go to."Yeah sure," she stepped aside and let me in. She couldn't hide how awkward she was feeling, clearing her throat and cracki
I jumped to my feet when I saw Jennifer's call coming in. I realised now that I had missed her text message telling me she was at Stella's and I hurried to answer the phone, so much going through my mind. I wondered if she had maybe gotten in a fight and now someone was calling me to tell me she was not doing okay.When I'd been unable to reach after leaving their house. I had gone straight for a bar to drink, longing for the feeling from the night I was drunk."I just saw your text, are you okay? Why did you go there? Is anything wrong?" I don't know what I was expecting but definitely not the calm voice that came after."Relax Daniel, I'm fine, I'm just waiting for a cab to come get me or something...""Where are you?" I asked her sharply, not waiting for her to finish her sentence, "I can come get you." A whole sense of relief washed over me."I'm at the bus station actually, I wanted to see if I could find a bus that would take me to your place from here but there isn't so...""My
JenniferWe laid in bed naked next to each other, my head on his chest while his hand stroked through my hair strands, just sniffing his scent and being here with him was all the peace I needed in the world right now.He kissed the top of my head and sighed, "Stella showed me a video today, that's what led to her being in my office today.""What was it about?" I looked up at him, drawing circles along his chest with my index finger."She showed me a video of your sister basically making out with a random guy and so I was at your house earlier today just to confront her even after I saw the video I still had some doubt that she would do something like that, turns out I went at the right time, the child she is carrying isn't even mine."It took me a moment to process his dirds before I finally blurted aloud, "what?!""Yeah you heard right.""That can't be real, it can't be.""I can't believe it either.'"The only reason I fucking agreed to this whole Henry madness is because I thought i
