NATHANIEL'S POVIT was merely a question yet it did a lot to cause my heart to quake heavily as I searched my heartfor the rightful answers."Was I in love with her?" I asked myself deep down despite the fact that I knew the answers to my questions already.The thought of what the answers might be was causing my heart to rumble, Or was it from the fear that whatever I was feeling she couldn't match it effect toe to toe?Amy saw my hesitation to answer her questions, she watched as I attempted to drown wherever I wanted to say with a gulo of sweet- sour red wine.That was what the answer to her question did to me, created a sweetness as it filtered through my ears in a melodious music yet as it settled on my heart it created a sour feeling sort of."I have the answers to my questions already." Amy said, chuckling. "So if you love her this much what is stopping you from going to her .""I don't know what you are talking about, I never admitted to loving her.""Yes, you didn't but your
OLIVIA'S POVNATHAN child growing in my womb seemed to take everything out of me.First it had been my period, then it disrupted my eating habits and now I had to deal with my driven emotions.The baby was ripping every bit of emotions out of me and I could very much go crazy.I stared at my swollen foot as I rested it on a soft cushion.To say it is an eyesore would be an understatement, cause it was more than that and the fact that all these things had to come naturally.At times it bothered me. I had to carry the burden alone, I had to admit that the child craved the presence of his father on my occasions but there was nothing I could do about it.It was just like my brain was refusing to listen to the cravings I was having budding up inside, my heart was whispering this craving yet my stubborn mind was adamant on going through all this alone."Who Needs A Man."I said aloud reading out the title from a chapter I had been skimming through over the last couple of days.I had picked
NATHANIEL'S POV.IF we got a penny each for the whole time we stayed quiet we would most certainly be richer men.We were driven by a hired driver, so it was only Alexis and I, two long time friend's engulfed in a plague of thoughtful silence.I was desperate to know what he was thinking. As I could see the way his face was puzzled looking all gloomy and very unhappy at wherever he was thinking about.What could it be ?Was he having trouble with Jane? . I thought to myself looking out the window to the other side.The driver had one hand on the wheel, with the sun glinting off his dark shades blocking off the rays from the sun glittering far ahead of us.The only words Alexis said all through the trip has been when he joked to mw about the driver being blind behind those glasses he had been wearing.It was a good thing the driver had taken it off once when he wanted to refill the fuel. Only when we were able to comfirm that he had not actually been blind.The car soon starts sl
NATHANIEL POVMy heart wouldn't stop beating fast and he knew exactly why.There was every reason for my heart beating so fast but the more I tried looking for a reasonable term to describe this state of my mind the harder it was for me to come in terms with reality.I tried looking for any bit of emotions to start up my heart that appeared to be in an almost hibernated state but I couldn't.Anger, shock …anything that would make me feel aligned with the pace of my heart.I could still hear my heart beating faster, faster than I can even count…It seemed to me almost like madness the more I thought about It, of course it might Alexis had called it a mere assumption but I had known him over the years he had never been wrong about the same thing twice.If anyone would know if she was pregnant or not it most definitely had to be Alexis with his knowledge about this type of things.Oliva getting pregnant had been the last thing I my mind but now that I could string one and two together
OLIVIA'S POV"WHAT!" I tried to wrap my mind around what Jane just said .She just got back from Alexis and you know the person at the hotel and she was gisting me about something that had gone down there while we smoked.I had been craving a stick off late and when I had bumped into Jane reading a magazine and having a pack to herself I had reached for the box myself pulling out a stick and lighting it up watching the musky smoke rising as I puffed it out to the air.It was unhealthy for the child so they said and it was funny. Jane didn't try stopping me when I reached for the box or even when I reached for the Zippo lighter.It was a cold evening with the temperature of the room lower than it usually was.I could feel my pulse racing as the clock ticked, my heart kept faster at the bit of information just dropped.As much as I had tried telling myself I wasn't so committed to whatever we both shared, the thought of him still flickered in my mind and this time it did with intense jea
NATHANIEL POVImagine Dragons "Radioactive" played from the radio of the black tinted Rover where I was hidden, perfectly camouflaged not just from the world but from her as well.It had been an hour and a half and there was still no sign that they were at the mall as Jane had told Alexis.I wasted no time getting into comfortable clothes before heading to the mall after copying the location of the mall from Alexis' phone after he slipped into the shower.Without much regret I knew prying into Alexis' phone was a bad thing to do but I did it anyway, he would be mad at me of course but I was certain he wouldn't mind me doing this as well.He had called me immediately after he got out of the shower and I told a white lie that I was down the road trying to get us lunch.Literally, I wasn't lying to him …right there on the chair was a lunch of Taco's I had planned to give to him as an offering for my sins when I got back.Three hours was encroaching when I heard a knock on the window s
OLIVIA'S POVTHE Mall was filled with the noise from people and running children, soft music played over the speakers as we took the escalator.For the next half an hour that passed we went around the groceries section filling our trolley with edibles as we talked and chatted away minutes out of our life.Jane's phone rang again the third time that afternoon, by then we were getting a few perishables and some other baby things I would be needing in the future month.She muttered a word under breath I couldn't hear as she picked the call. I couldn't make out what they were talking about but apparently the two love -birds were involved in quite a long conversation I didn't want to be involved in so I walked away to another part of the wall.I saw two pregnant women walking into a room holding a gym mat. I got curious and walked towards the door that was left open.Walking toward the door, I stopped by the large glass wall and stared at myself for a while. My other self looked sick an
NATHANIEL'S POV"You should have just let me approach her ." I grimaced as we drove fast a few trees laying on a straight on both sides of the road.I was still mad at the fact that she was pregnant and seemed it fit not to tell me about the existence of the child, our child.What if I had not come down to Mexico for this break or decided it upon myself to go somewhere else. I thought to myself.Alexis had remained quiet all through too, he knew too well that speaking would definitely ignite the whole issue and so he stayed mute and listened to the reporter over the radio.I was mad at everything including myself, mad at the fact that she had done this and the truth actually when I thought about it deeply would be that she had no choice.Was that a good excuse the good side of my heart was trying to give her?I scoffed at the thought…"You are driving too fast, man." Alexis said.It was the first words he had said since about One hour, twenty- five minutes and ten seconds. I knew t
