Kathy Pov"What? You would choose her over me?"I asked trying as much as possible not to give him any reactions."Don't make me answer that, you wouldn't like my answer,"He said he wasn't even looking at me, he was looking everywhere else but at me, which was okay because I didn't want those eyes on me either."Dude, I already know your answer so it won't be a new thing, guess what? I am used to people not choosing me, so it won't hurt like you think it will,""Is that so?"He asked, I actually wanted to laugh at him but I just kept it in, I didn't want to give him any reactions, he didn't deserve it, he would choose her over me? he was just coming home for the first time in three days and he dared to tell me, his mistress will be moving in with us, and that's the only reason he even came back because if not I am sure he wouldn't have come back to this house, well, like I told him, if she moves in here then we are done, I ain't gonna sit and watch the son of a Bitch do such to me, e
Kathy PovI just stood there staring at him, I couldn't believe him, he had the nerve to ask me that, I could say the same for him, he was the one who hasn't been around so why did he think he could ask me where I have been."And you think I am going to answer you?""What the fuck Katherine? Do you know how scared I was that something had happened to you? And you weren't taking your calls either, at least learn to answer your God damn phone,"He cursed, I rolled my eyes and made to pass by him, he stopped me with his hand, I shoved at him."Get your hands off me, why were you calling me? why does my staying out late have anything to do with you, you don't care about what happens to me remember? I am not your business, so don't fucking act like you give a fuck about me,""Katherine!!"He barked."Cross!!"I shouted right back, he looked around before pulling me by the hand and dragging me into the main house with him, I fought ticket his hand off me but he held in too strong, he was st
Kathy PovI woke the next morning thinking all that happened last night was a dream but the tenderness of my private areas was proof that it did happen, I laid in bed, not feeling like living the house or going to school, I didn't have much to do in school today as the project was taking more of our time in school, I had semester exams soon too, I looked around my room trying to make sense of what happened last night, but as much as I thought about it, I couldn't come up to anything. When I had woke up last night and I was alone, I had felt like the biggest fool in the whole world by letting Cross lay his cheating hands on me, I felt ashamed of myself for not being able to tell him no and had left the room quietly and came back here, my body had been too exhausted to overthink which is why I was doing the overthinking now, I felt like he was trying to either get on my good side again or he was trying to manipulate me into believing and trusting him again, I wasn't buying any of his sh
Cross Pov"Aha, finally,"I said pulling her close, I didn't know just how much I missed her until I held her in my arms, I couldn't sleep last night with her in this room, I thought about it and decided I didn't like fighting with her, I didn't have to love her to care for her, and I did, I cared for her, so I decided not to go to work today, and spend the day with her, I went out to get her something as a form of a bribe but she hadn't even looked at it, she had looked at me with so much hate and sadness that it made me feel bad for everything that I had put her through these past few days."I still don't like you Cross,""I don't like myself either, I am sorry for what I said okay, it won't happen again,""You promise?""Yes,""And there is really nothing going on with your ex? I know I shouldn't bring her up again but I can't help it, she is the woman you love and I feel helpless,"She said, I pulled her back into my hug."Ginna is not a threat Kathy, don't worry, I promise I am
Unknown Pov"I don't want to do this, I can't do it,"The bitch said and I rolled my eyes, she was acting out again and I hated it, she was always doing stupid things, going off the goal and we didn't have that much time, I didn't, she could act out, she is not the one at risk if been arrested, she had all her papers intact, I needed to leave this city soon, I didn't get approval before coming here and the police here always ask for means of identification, if they find out I am using a fake ID I might get in trouble."Come on Ginna, why are you doing this again, it's not that hard, we need the money, so don't act out, don't ruin this for us,""I am not ruining anything, I just don't want to do this anymore, I can't, I can't ruin Cross life over my greed, he is a good man, I made a mistake coming here to get revenge on him, he didn't do anything to me,""A good man you say? A good man that didn't show up when you were bleeding and losing your child with him? If it wasn't for me you wo
Cross PovI drove into Ginna's apartment and quickly got off the car, I had been trying to call her but she wasn't taking her calls, I knocked on her door calling her name, she didn't answer, I imputed her password and step into the house, it was quiet."Maybe she is not home,"I said as I walked towards her room calling her name."Ginna?""I am here,"Came her weak reply and I rushed into her room, she stood there looking so scared, I wondered what happened and why she wasn't taking my calls."Ginna, what happened? You scared me," I tried calling your phone after you call but you weren't picking, are you okay?'I asked, looking around the room, she was alone, she had tears in her eyes."I am sorry I called you, I went to the gym and when I came back, there was a man there, I was so scared that I had called you, but he already left now, I don't know who he is,"She explained."Oh God, I should have come earlier, but I was coming from Kathy's school so it took a while to get here, are
Kathy Pov.The thought on my head throughout the rest of the day was, how was Cross going to react to the news of us having a baby, we haven't talked about having a kid before, but I don't see him having any problem with it, he was excited for the birth of Anna's twin which was due next week which is why he wanted us to be in Arizona when she gives birth, we were leaving for Arizona by Friday, so much have changed since I got married and left Arizona, I have changed a lot too, maybe gotten more mature, and now I am going to be a mom too, Marilyn had asked me if I could handle both a child and a career, and honestly, I haven't thought much about it, so I just told her I will go with the ride, if it gets too much for me then I will pause school and concentrate on being a mom, I can always go back to school anytime.I called Cross already that I was home and he didn't have to go pick me up from school. I went to meet Nora in the kitchen, I wanted to cook something for Cross myself, feed
Kathy PovI sat on my bed sad and feeling stupid, I never imagined my life could get worst but the universe really had a way of bringing me back to the reality that I can never truly be happy for once, I thought I would be lucky but maybe not, but this hurts more. I laid in bed wishing for it all to be a bad, bad, dream but it wasn't, each time I open my eyes, it just didn't go away, I got up from the bed and walked out of the room, going over to my car, I thought of driving to his office and giving him a piece of my mind right there, but I couldn't, I didn't want the humiliation that comes with doing that, so I went back upstairs to the room, I couldn't even cry, it was as if the tears that came with the initial shock was all the tears I had left, I just continued staring around the room, with no form or directions, all my mind could think about was leave this house, but I couldn't leave without first confronting the bastard cheater, I needed to see his reaction.A knock on the door
