~~Hazel~~

The sunlight filters through the curtains, casting long pale rectangles on the floor.

I stir, slightly sore down there.

My eyes flutters open slowly, scanning the room.

I'm on a bed of course, tangled in the sheets, my skin sticky with sweat and something else.

The air smells like…the man from last night— expensive cologne, and the raw scent of what we did.

Except…I can't place a face.

I recall collapsing onto him, and his hand running over my bare back.

My gaze shift to the cold bed

    ~~Hazel~~The sunlight filters through the curtains, casting long pale rectangles on the floor.I stir, slightly sore down there.My eyes flutters open slowly, scanning the room.I'm on a bed of course, tangled in the sheets, my skin sticky with sweat and something else.The air smells like…the man from last night— expensive cologne, and the raw scent of what we did.Except…I can't place a face.I recall collapsing onto him, and his hand running over my bare back.My gaze shift to the cold bed beside me.He's gone.Of course he is.I facepalmed, the memory of last night flooding into my head.I was a mess last night. I can't tell how long we did it for, but my body tells me I went over limit.That's the longest sex I've had.Five…six rounds?I honestly can't tell.But it's certain he wanted this baby…the effort and the real work he put into it says so.A knock snaps my head to the door.I push up on my elbow instantly, pulling the covers over me. Every muscle in my body complains, a s

  • Divorce? Never Letting Go!   07 My Lanie

    ~~Sebastian~~Lanie.It's her.It's truly her.Something inside me locks in place. How the hell is she here?I've looked everywhere.Turned Poland upside down and I…. thought she just wanted me gone.So I let her be.Fate must have a weird way of taunting me bringing her to me again.She bolts, fast, like the room is on fire.I don't even blink.I follow.The bouncer along the hallway turns as she scurries off, her hand slamming hard against the elevator button.Willing it to open up.It does.I stride toward her, eyes fixed on the damn elevator.It about to close when I storm in.She shrieks, not out of fear.It's like air has left her lungs, and right now she probably wish the ground could open up and swallow her whole.But it's me going to do just that.“Lanie,”“Get…” she starts choking on her words. “Get away from me,” she says, stepping back.I step in front of her. “How are you here?”Silence.She turns her face away but I reach for it, forcing her eyes on me.Maybe she sees it

  • Divorce? Never Letting Go!   06 In his bed

    ~~Hazel~~I peered out of window and the driver's parked right out, waiting.I tug at my bag slightly, trying to quiet my mind.9PM.And I'm standing beside my door, trying not to panic. My heart is knocking in a weird rhythm behind my ribs. It's not because I haven't trained my mind for this. Not because I haven't had a one night stand in the past— but because this time, I'm not just looking to scratch an itch.There's a bigger picture. A bigger risk. One that took all the encourage in the world to give in.And it's going to show up as two pink lines in a few weeks and alter my life forever.I bite down on my lip and force a breath down my lungs.One thing is certain though.I'm ready. Peak ovulation. Prime conception. I right myself, straighten my spine, walk to the door, pull it open and step out.The air outside is cool. Much quieter than the chaos in my head.I make a beeline all the way to the car, my eyes fixed on the dark windscreen.I pull the door open and slide in.The dr

  • Divorce? Never Letting Go!   05 It can't be him

    ~~Melanie~~As I step out of the elevator and into the hallway, nerves twisted in my stomach.My mind is racing, but I force a smile as I approached the reception desk.It still feels surreal to be here.It been over a decade since I worked, and I'm more than happy to start out.But yet, that didn't stop my nerves from growing with each step I take.I'm on a black corporate dress that Tamara sent to me last night and it hugs my curves perfectly.Yeah, I looked the part without doing too much.The lady behind the desk lifts her eyes as she sees me.“Melanie Johnson?” she asks with a raised eyebrow.I nod. “Yes, that's me.”“Mr. Daniel is expecting you,” she points to the tall door along the hallway.I give her a soft smile and turn toward the office of Mr. Daniel, the HR of Basxon.I knock once and pull the door.A middle aged man sits on the large swivel chair, slowly looking up as I inch closer to his desk.His gaze lingers long enough to make me feel like I was being studied.“Good

    ~~Hazel~~I find myself in a waiting room of the doctor.I can't recall the last time I've been to the hospital.This might sound weird but I never get sick, except this one time Jason ran a fever.So it kinda feels strange been in here.Not just that. My nerves are at it again. This is getting real, it's not cold feet, it's fear of what happens next.Just then the door opens and in walks Fiona with a warm smile.“Ms. Simpson,” she says walking up to me.“Good morning, Fiona.” I greeted here. “And please call me Hazel,”She was being way too formal, and I figured she has a huge role to play in this, so it was better to be cordial, at least.“Very well then,” she says, settling beside me. Her eyes trails my face. “Did you sleep at all,”I nod.But that's a lie.I was terribly nervous all night, it was hard to sleep. But I'm not going to admit that to her.This was a business relationship. I have to seem competent and show I'm capable of carrying a baby.“I did,” I say.Her eyes lingers

    ~~Melanie~~It's okay to start over, my friends had said.But how do I erase almost a decade of memory?Hurtful memories.I still have them, the bad nauseating dreams.Even this morning. I'd wake up trembling at least twice every week.It used to be worse.Happens practically every day.But the virtual therapy did it's thing. I got better, I mean for a while I believed it'll all get better.Tian made me believe that.Made me believe I deserve more.But it wasn't for long.Nathan found out anyway. He took my phone and there's no way to reach Tian.But I think that's for the better.I can't hope. I can't believe. Life has thought me that trust matters.That hoping is useless.The moment I spent with Tian was one of my happiest but that's it.A beautiful memory I'd carry forever.That's all it'll ever be.My phone dings. A new device Tamara got me.It's Hazel calling.I know they're all scared.They call more than five times in a day.Probably thinking I'd hurt myself.I mean, in their de
