" That!" He said pointing towards the direction of the car, I turned around following where his index finger points.
" Oh no. The car is on fire! " I scream, as I grabbed Greg's left hand and helps him up and supports him while we moved faster and far away from the car which is about to burst into flames. A bit far away from the flaming car, Greg snatched his hand away from mine." Hailey your bags are in there, I need to get them!" He limps as he ran towards the car." Greg No!" I wail at him but it was too late for him before he could reach the car, there was a loud explosion which threw him far away from the fuming car." Greg!!!!" I shouted as I ran to him, while laid on the ground. His clothes were torn and the skin on the elbow was scratched and wounded when he came down in full force." Greg, Greg! Are you okay?""Mmmm! he groaned as he nodded his head to my question. I'm fine you need not worry. He forced a smile. Suddenly his eyes lit up agaiRelated chapters

Hours later, I arrived New York City. Stepping down from the plane as my feet touched the ground, it hit me instantly that I have nothing, no luggage, no destination, no money. The only thing in my hand is the cell phone given to me by Greg's driver. "The phone!" I said out loud . Quickly I proceeded outside the airport, there as I stood at the Exit way , I switch on the cell phone and browse through the contact list. Greg's number is the only contact in it as I click dial on the number while placing the phone on my left ear, the number isn't going, I hung up and dialed again but it yields the same result. I continue dialing over and over and over again but to no avail, his number is switched off. I felt frightened at this point, I am right here, at the biggest city in the world and I'm lost, I have no nowhere to go or whom to go to. " I shouldn't have come here, I have once again made a big blunder. I should have gone back home to new Mexico, to my mother." I weep sil

I pick myself up from where I am left, again, in a dark alley, in the middle of nowhere. I start walking towards the boulevard, suddenly there was some sort of climate change as the night breeze turns chilling on my bare skin.I endured the cold air as I found a means of shelter at the restaurant across the street, walking into the diner, I carefully took a seat right next to the window while blowing some warm air into my hands with my mouth." Hello, what can I get for you?" I heard a voice say and I turn to find a lady dressed in casual jeans and a black crop-top,She wore a frown on her face, that compliments the dark shade of lipstick she was wearing. She had this mean temperament, I felt awkward talking to her. " Umm....hi, can I get a cup of coffee please!"" What kind?"" Huh?" I barely understand what she meant." I mean what kind do you prefer, how do you like your coffee, expresso, De cafe or......"" Oh, sorry now I get it. C

We got outside the store but she continues walking towards the taxi stand so I follows her, I'm clueless about how all of a sudden I feel safe with her , like I have faith that she wouldn't do anything bad to me." Hey! erm... I will taking a cab from here, by the way you can keep the money for the meal, so you are free to go!" She says sweetly." Erm... Thanks a lot. I really appreciate your help and what you did back there."" It's pleasure.... Take care." She stops a taxi and jumps in " 5th Avenue!" I hear her say to the driver before shutting the door.The car leaves, as stood there and watched. Suddenly it occurs to me" why didn't I ask her for help? At least she would have directed me to a decent hotel or motel I can spend the night in!.....Urgh! You can be stupid sometimes Hailey!"_mumbling to myself, while I stood there at the side of the road with no idea what to do next. Right now, I wish I have a smart phone at least I can find my way around this giganti

" Babe!!" She calls out, which got me wondering, " Is there someone else in the apartment?" Well my question is answered when a guy with a towel tied around his waist, his looks aren't anything striking at all, but I don't think I am in any position to be judgemental, I'm merely a guest in their home." Oh, hey babe!" The gentleman walks up to her and gives her a warm kiss on the cheeks," Hey, why are you tying a towel! Can't you see we have a guest here?" She whispers to him." I just came out of the shower when I heard you at the entrance... Don't give me that look, I'll go put on some clothing, Okay?" He steals a glimpse at me and continues out." Don't mind all that, come... Have a seat, I will be right back!" She leaves me all alone in the living room and proceeds to her bedroom.A while later, " her boyfriend " I presume, walks into the room while shining a bright smile as he moves towards my direction." Hey, sorry about earlier. I

" phew! It's been such a stressful day! I surge into bed and drown myself in the softness of it. I wonder how Greg is doing?" A cinch of melancholy gusts through my body.My eyes become heavy while I stared at the awning, slowly but steady my eyelids could no longer hold the inevitable call of nature, as I dozed off, eventually.The next day, I wake up in the morning to the loud noise coming from outside of my window and I jump out of bed as I proceed into the bathroom to ease myself and wash my face, while doing that I took a little time looking at the mirror and resumes my thinking from where I stopped last night, glancing at the mirror, gazing into the eyes of my reflection in the mirror. My thoughts go feral, as I couldn't get myself to focus, still hunted by my tragic past. I remember when I first moved to Phoenix, I had a dream, I had a goal, that made me wake up every single morning and face my day with a bright smile on my face. Where is that girl who wanted

Standing there in the kitchen watching as she exits, It feels like the earth should open up and swallow me whole, " you shouldn't have said that, you stupid girl! Curse you! Curse you! Curse you! I scream in my head. Why am I still standing here?"I promptly trotted into the guest room and straight to the bathroom, in a moment I am done with my bath and leaving the bathroom with this thought in mind, " How do I go to her and ask for clothe to wear?" This question bugged on my mind during and after my bath, until I came out of the bathroom to find a pair of blue jeans and a white T-shirt with a pair of new sneakers laid on the mattress, deliberately, I proceeded to the row awe-stricken at how someone could be so nice at heart.Sliding into the pair of slacks and the shirt, they were a little tight on my body giving that I am a bit more larger upstairs and the down side as well but feet slips into the sneakers as though they were perfectly measure and m

I hurried behind her as we arrives at the bus stop, we awaited in lull for the bus to arrive.Though I am standing behind her I could see through her shattered heart, what she is feeling at the moment and how much she is praying for none of this to be true.I also prayed and wished that none of the things that had happened to me were all just a nightmare, that the man I once loved is still the same man I fell in love with.Perhaps I am a mere outsider to her, she chose to wear a mask and bury her excitements deep down inside of her, I want to walk up to her,give her a wake up slap and hug her tightly until she pours her heart out, I want to tell her how strong and pure hearted she is, a plethora of things I need to say to her but I don't know how to do that when she isn't giving me the recourse.Eventually, the bus arrives and she turns to me and goes, " let's go, this is our bus!" Then she continues and gets into the bus and I came behind her, while She si

" Is this how you want to pay me back for everything?" I hear her say in a trembling tone, gradually I walk up to them and stand still behind Sam, the situation She caught her boyfriend in, she couldn't curb her sentiments as tears unhurriedly run from her eyes down to her cheeks, " I gave you all my support and more, I loved you unconditionally Jordan, I even took you in when you lost everything and this is how you repay me? Jordan with the two women he had escorted into the boutique to lavish my money, they all gaped with no blithe of concern on their faces." Sam, I'm sorry for all this but I can never betray you, I only took the cash from the new girl because I'm in desperate need of a financial stipend, thanks to that money I was able to pay off the five grand I'm owing on the mortgage and spoil myself a little!" He says with a grimace.I can feel my blood boil in rage, I clench my fists and just as I am about to go give him a piece of my mind, Sam grips my wrist. " I
