Kathy PovI thought I had gotten tougher and stronger and that I won't tear up again but it turned out that to was far from being the strong woman I thought I was because I cried myself to sleep and woke up with tears in my eyes, I was sick too and had to throw up when I woke up, I understand the sickness was due to my pregnancy but, this much sadness and loneliness wasn't because I was pregnant no it was because that's what it is, that I am sad, that my life wasn't going the way that I would have wanted it to go and the universe wasn't showing mercy on me, I felt like I was feeling all the sadness in the word, my only friend and companion was my unborn baby, I laid in bed with nothing to do, willing myself to get up and at least eat, but I didn't have the will not the strength to, so I just laid there, wishing for the hundredth time that I was having a long unpleasant dream, that I will wake up and laugh it off and move on with my life."Kathy?"I heard the reason for my sadness cal
Cross Pov"Hey man, what's up?"Dean said walking up to me at our regular bar, it's been a while I have saw him and I didn't even think he would show up, as I thought he was still mad at me but when I called him, he said he was on his way and indeed he came, I stood up to shake his hands and sat back down nursing my drink."What's up? You don't look happy, did something happen?""Yeah, it did,""Okay, spill,""Kathy wants a divorce,"I disclosed, I hated even saying the words, it tasted bitter in my mouth, I couldn't imagine my life without Kathy."Okay, so why are you sad about that? I thought that's what you wanted right?""No, that's not what I want,""Hmm, so what did you do?""Why do you assume I did something?""Isn't it obvious? Why else will she want a divorce if you didn't do shit, cut to the chase Cross, what happened?""Something happened with Ginna and it got to Kathy,""What happened? Did you sleep with her? Dude I warned you""I didn't sleep with her, I didn't but Kathy
Kathy PovAs I sat at the restaurant waiting for her to show up, I thought of what I wanted to tell her, I wasn't the one who reached out so I didn't know what to say to her, what does one say to her husband's mistress? I didn't even know how to react to her yet, I will just wait to find out when she arrives, Cross has been calling my phone nonstop since about three hours ago but I didn't bother to take his call, I hadn't bother to go back home after I finished at the hospital and had just went around town, going into the hospital earlier for a proper test alone hadn't been exciting and the doctor confirmed that I was indeed pregnant and the fact that it was still in the early stages I shouldn't stress myself much or do anything hard to avoid a miscarriage, but the thing is I was already stressed, I know I should try and reduce stress and not meeting Ginna might help but I was too curious to not here what she had to say, I decided that whatever she says I won't let it get to me much,
Kathy PovI was woke by Cross's voice, it took a while to get up and I went to open the door without thinking, only when I had opened the door did my mind begin to process that I wasn't supposed to be talking to him, it was too late and I couldn't just shut the door in his face."What do you want?"I asked eyeing him"Why didn't you wake me up when you got back? Didn't you see my calls?""I saw them and choose to ignore and I don't recur us talking about telling each other where or when we are coming back home,"I said wanting him gone so that I can go back to sleep."Kathy, can you please not do this?""Do what? I haven't done anything here, you are the one that woke me up from sleep, and bet you I am so fucking tired so please,""You should have woken me up when you got home, I was worried about you,""Are you sure? Or were you worried Ginna spilled your secrets the more because I met her, and I guess she might have told you since you told her we are getting a divorce,""Yes, she sp
Unknown Pov"What did I tell you about making a rash decision Ginna?"I shouted at her, she has been hiding from me since yesterday when she had gotten back from seeing Katherine even though I had warned her not to make any rash decision but the bitch was been led by her emotions and by the fact that the man she wanted to reject her and if I am not careful, she will make a decision that will get us both in trouble."What would you have me do? If I don't get Cross how am I supposed to get money from him, you are the one that suggested the play that lead to us having issues, if you had just let me be Cross's friend then we would still have been getting money from him, I don't know what you are thinking when you decided we should do that,"She replied. I couldn't blame her either, I knew I made a mistake too I had been betting on the fact that Cross still had feelings for Ginna, I didn't know the bastard would pick his wife over her if I knew I would have stuck to the original plan and w
Cross Pov"Are you okay? Do you need anything?"I asked as we sat on the plane going back home, but she ignored me like she has been doing since our earlier conversation at home, at least she agreed to go home with me, and she was going to stay with my parents too, I had been surprised when she had said that, she had even told my mom about how she knew how much I want to be home before Anna gives birth, I had been already looking for excuses to give but she had saved the day, I had expected her to be madder at me after she met with Ginna, but the reverse was the case, even though she wasn't talking to me right now, she spoke to me last night and even let me share a bed with her, which was progress and also she sat in the car with me on the ride to the airport and didn't shout at me when I touched her either, and she hadn't talked about divorce, all she had told me this morning was that she didn't want our parents knowing we had a fight which I was okay with, I didn't want them knowing
Kathy Pov"Cross, can you tell him to stop? I feel nauseous,"I let out, gripping onto Cross's hand, I had been happy that I didn't feel sick during the flight here but I guess it came late cuz I was about to throw up in this car if the driver doesn't stop soon."Hey, stop the car,"I heard Cross say and the car came to a stop by the roadside, I rushed out just in time as I emptied the contents of my stomach."Hey baby girl, are you okay?"Cross asked standing beside me and patting my back."Do I look okay to you?"I shouted at him, removing his hands from my back in annoyance, spit out, and eyed him."I am sorry, I don't know what to do or say,""Fine, get me water,""Can you get us water please?"He asked the driver who looked like he wanted to be anywhere but here, I rolled my eyes when Cross handed the water over to me, I washed my mouth with it before drinking some and handing the empty bottle over to him, I left him there, I didn't care what he did with the waste, I just wanted
*****The next couple of days were quite busy in the house, everyone was so hyped for Anna giving birth, she was moved to the hospital today since her due date was Friday which was the day after tomorrow, I could finally visit my family after four days of being in Arizona, it's not like I couldn't go since but I didn't want to go alone and Cross had been busy taking care of some work related stuff, compound with the fact that I was weak for the first two days, now sitting in our shared bedroom, I texted my older sister that we were ok our way, we were all gonna meet at my parent's house and they were already there, Nathan included since he has been living with our parents since he returned, I didn't know what to expect from our meeting, the last time we had all been in the same room was when Nathan had said he was leaving and since then the four of us have never been together at the same time, we use to be so close, and I wondered if we could go back to the way we were."What are you
