Abigail Hayes~•~I was in a bind.I was wondering whether I should go to my mother’s house and tell her that I was pregnant or wait until it started to show so she wouldn’t be very mad at me and only help me through it.I knew it was wrong, but my mother was a very dramatic person. She liked to make big deals out of small situations so who knew what she would do with a deal as big as this.She was surely going to ask about the man and I just didn’t know how to tell her that I was sleeping with my boss while he had a wife and his wife found out so he divorced her, then I found out I was pregnant but we were not on good terms so I didn’t know what exactly he thought about it. That didn’t exactly sound smooth, did it?I was still in my room pacing around when I heard my phone ring. For a second, I feared my mom somehow heard my thoughts and was calling me but it turned out to be George.He had made me unblock his number on Monday when he accompanied me for the check-up. It had been thre

Abigail Hayes~•~We were not poor, but we weren’t rich either. We never struggled to get the things we wanted but that was because we never tried to live above our means. We had savings but they weren’t over the top or anything.This was why when I heard the news of my mother’s sickness, I was frightened. She had cervical cancer and it was just as expensive to treat as other cancers. Every other thought flew out of my head as I tried to imagine where we would get such money from because I obviously couldn’t let the cancer take over my mom’s life.I was stunned. I didn’t know what to do or say. All I could do was wrap her in what I hoped was a warm hug as tears freely flowed down my eyes. It seemed like she was trying to be strong but as soon as I broke down in her arms, she broke down as well. We stayed in each other’s arms crying for a few good minutes. My problem seemed so minuscule compared to hers.“Does Olivia know?” I questioned when I finally pulled away from her.She wiped m

Abigail Hayes ~•~George was good at keeping promises. As soon as I asked, he had transferred the money to my account. He told me he was going to transfer the rest after I signed the contract. I didn’t really care about the rest of the money. I just wanted to be able to afford my mother’s treatments. I told him not to worry about the rest but he insisted on keeping his end of the bargain. He was supposed to meet me today, but I had to take my mother to the hospital. George had gone as far as finding one of the best doctors to treat my mom. I was thankful for it.My mother questioned the source of the money but I dismissed it and told her it was from my savings. When she reminded me that I was not rich enough to have fifty grand sitting in my bank account, I then told her part of it was from the loan I took from the bank. It wasn’t like I liked lying to her. I just couldn’t tell her I got paid to get married.I stayed with her as the doctor told us the process of her treatment. She h

Abigail Hayes ~•~When I first told Maya that I was getting married to George, she screamed. Then, she asked if I was serious to which I answered positively.At first, she was skeptical about it but after I explained exactly what had happened between us in the past few months, she was happy that I was getting married. She didn’t care that a contract was involved. She was just happy to be a bridesmaid and to see me walking down the aisle.Too many things were happening at the time and I was feeling overwhelmed by everything. I had always dreamt about having the perfect wedding even if I never talked about it with anyone. It was one of my fantasies. And in my fantasy dream, I didn’t see myself getting pregnant before getting married or even having a contract marriage. At least, I had enough money to take care of my mum. She was getting treatments from one of the best doctors in New York. All thanks to George. I got up from the bed and made my way to the bathroom to have a nice and r

Abigail Hayes~•~“You look like you didn’t get any sleep last night,” George commented as soon as I opened the door to the passenger’s seat and got in. For some reason unknown to me, he was driving the car that I used to drive while I was working with him but I decided not to say anything about it.“Thank you,” I responded sarcastically and he chuckled.“When did you get home last night?”I couldn’t even remember. “I can’t recall. I think four or five in the morning.” I’d forgotten I had to be on the road around eight to get to the hospital. My mother was getting discharged today. She wasn’t done with her treatment but she was done with the first process.I was more than happy she didn’t get to the point where it couldn’t be treated anymore before telling us about it. Olivia eventually found out about it the day she found out I was getting married since my mom had to be hospitalized the next day. She cried a lot but she was happy our mom was being treated as well.She had been living
