Consequences Eleven
Samantha pov'sJordan was sleeping crookedly in his chair, and I still didn't sleep at all, even though I'd been sedated by the nurse, I slept for two hours and then woke up. Since then I've been here, trying to think of everything that's happening in my life, thinking from the beginning of everything, from the discovery of the pregnancy, and even everything looking like it was resolved with this damn marriage, nothing works, the path just seems to narrow more and more.I close my eyes for a few minutes and imagine my life trodden by three paths. I am single and childless, single and with a child and married with a child. I imagine each of the three, in the smallest detail, but what stuck most was me being a mother, woman and loved one. I didn't want to think about that possibility, but after what happened, what he did for me and the baby and everything he said, this idiocy doesn't get out of my head for nothing. I don't want to feel things for him, I don't want to fall in love, I onl

Samantha pov'sHe was still standing in the doorway watching me. I bit my bottom lip, trying to find a reaction. The atmosphere was strange, not the strange one when we fought, it was of a different kind... “Jordan? What is it?” I decided to break the silence."You took so long, so I thought something had happened." he said vaguely."Everything is fine. I was just talking to the baby.” I said low smiling and he laughed."Like this? They can't hear…or can they?” he asked in confusion."Yes they can, they feel any reaction from the mother, what happens around them and it's always recommended to relax and talk to them." I said looking at my belly and smoothing it over the towel."Interesting. Can I play?” he asked and I was surprised."You can." I said softly and he approached. Jordan stopped in front of me and touched the top of the towel. I just bit my lip."Could you take the towel off?" I really want to play. I was speechless at his question."I don't think so." I said nervously.“Sa

Samantha pov'sToday I turned three months and one week old. I could feel a small difference in my body, but nothing that would draw attention. I was skinny, I had practically no belly and sometimes I even doubted that I was really having a child. After the scare I had a few weeks ago, certain things started to take a different path and, I confess, I'm surprising myself.Jordan is trying to change some things, to fulfill what he promised me. He has been present at certain times and every once in a while asked about the baby. Whoever advised him, they did a great job and I can only say thank you for that.Yesterday I had a visit from my father, Jordan was not here. For the first time in my life, I felt completely uncomfortable with him, with someone I loved so dearly. Maybe it was because of the things he had said to me, the way he forced me to marry him, I don't know but, is it wrong to stop loving someone who has your blood? Your parent? I tried to be as natural as possible with him,
Consequences Fourteen
"Sam?” I hear his voice from the other side of the door, but I ignore it.He doesn't have that goddamn right to say whatever he wants, and then come here with a straight face and talk to me."Listen to me please, I only ask you for a minute." says again, I take a deep breath and walk to the door, but I don't open it."What do you want Jordan?" I say leaning against the wall."Can you open that damn door? I want to look at you.” he says and I give a snarky laugh."For what? Look at me, while throwing your shit in my face, just to see how bad I look?" I throw at him."Damn Sam, that's not it! Can you hear me, then you decide what you think is best." I bite my lips and take a deep breath, but I end up doing what he asked. Jordan was shirtless, with wet hair, a sign that he had taken a shower and soon after, he came here to talk to me. He's a bastard, he came that way just to take my focus away... I look into his face and see how tired he is, see the frustration seeping out of him."Satis

Jordan's sister was his opposite.She was sweet, fun and friendly.In recent weeks we have begun to closer, she's been like a second sister to me, just like Becca is my first.Having other women around makes me feel good and I can talk openly with them without worrying.Jordan is a little distant, but whenever there is time left from whatever he does, he talks to me, asks if I need anything and then disappears. According to his sister, college is killing him, mainly because it is the last year of his course.I can't complain about the lack of attention (because lately I'm so needy, it's unbearable), After all, we have nothing."What do you want?” I look at the blonde girl in front of me."It could be a strawberry milkshake." I tell her.My then sister-in-law invited me to go for a walk and, of course, I didn't refuse. I haven't been out in a while, I just stayed inside that apartment, looking at nothing. We were at a diner near the house, making small talk."And then? How has my broth
Consequences Sixteen
The next morning I prepared a very strong coffee, because my hunger had tripled and it wasn't just any little thing that satisfied me. I made chocolate waffles, bacon and eggs, the good old cereal and I couldn't miss my strawberry smoothie.When I was almost finished, the door opened and Jordan walked through it, he didn't sleep at home last night and I can already imagine where he was yesterday."Good morning Sam.” he says when he notices my presence, approaching and placing a kiss on my forehead."Good morning. You want? There are even chocolate waffles." I say and he nods as he sits down next to me."Thanks, I really needed it. I barely ate last night." he says and I notice the deep circles under his eyes. I get up and go to the kitchen getting a cup and putting coffee for him and taking it to him."Take it here, it will help a little." I say while handing him the cup.He looks at me for a few seconds and, saying nothing, smiles sideways and shakes his head. I sit down again and to

As I gaped at the monitor screen and at Patrick, I felt Jordan's hand slip from mine. My heart was a thousand an hour, after all, I was only waiting for a baby, in the last two ultrasounds I had done, only a single fetus appeared, nothing of a second.I looked at the father of this... These children that I'm having, and he was literally white, pale, looked like he was going to pass out any moment in that room."How come twins? Two? But Patrick, but…” I sat down on the gurney and tried to come up with a train of thought."Two? Holy shit.” Jordan walked over and sat next to me, I touched her hand and, she was super cold."Is everything okay?” I ask softly and he takes a deep breath and looks at me.“I'm just, I'm just surprised.” he says."Patrick" I turn my gaze to him, and he watches me "How is that possible? Can you explain it to us?” He nods."Jordan needs you to get up please, and Sam needs to lie down again. So I'll show better and explain." he says and we agree.As soon as I lay d
Consequences Eighteen
We were lying on the couch and naked.Jordan kept his head on my legs and I stroked his head, running my fingers through his blond strands. The silence wasn't uncomfortable, everything was quiet after what we did there in that room. I didn't regret it, I didn't feel guilty, in fact I had enjoyed a lot of what happened between the two of us. But there was one detail that I was aware of: Brenner had someone, he was with Jessica, even though he never told me and, it was something I already suspected even before I met her and I didn't want to come between the two, I wouldn't spoil their relationship, for my mere desires."Jordan?" I call him.“Hm.""I don't want to spoil the mood, but I know you have someone else and I don't think it's fair what happened here." I speak and hear him sigh. Jordan then turns to me."How can you be sure of that? I mean, about me having someone?” she asks."Maybe it's because I see your reactions when you're on the phone, or when you sleep outside and arrive s
