How can your life go from 0 to 100 so fast? I was your typical good girl, perfect grades, never got in trouble etc. That was until I met him, Owen Adam's. We met in our last year of high-school and he made me believe I was the one. And I believed him because I wanted to feel loved. We dated for a year, and then he broke up with me, cause I didn't want to have sex.
I saw him again, two years after our graduation. Since we had friends in common, we saw each other at our friend's birthday and decided to be civil. But we got really friendly and drank a lot that night and ended up having sex at his place.
"Hey, last night was fantastic." He kissed me.
"It really was." I giggled. "So, what now?"
Stupid me thought, maybe this is our second chance to be together, but I couldn't have been more wrong.
"You should leave, but if you ever want to fuck again, call me." He smirked.
"I thought-"
He just laughed, and told me he only wanted me for sex. I felt like an idiot. I dressed up quickly, but before I left, I punched his balls. I hope I don't have to see him again.
.............
And I spoke too soon, cause even though I didn't want to see him, I kinda had to. Which brings us to our current moment.
"Owen, say something."
"This is your problem not mine, I'm leaving the country with my fiancée." He said with so much anger.
"My problem? It takes two to tango, you asshole!" I was furious.
"We used protect-"
"No we didn't, we got careless because we were wasted." I wiped my tears.
"Get rid of it!"
"No, I'm a month pregnant and I'm not going to get rid of my baby. I just came to let you know that I'm pregnant with your baby, so you don't get surprised in the future."
"I don't want that baby, you can do whatever you want it."
I just looked at him and wonder, what did I ever see in him. "Goodbye."
..........
I went home and told dad the news, he told me that a baby cost too much and it was best to put it up for adoption, that wasn't going to happen, I miss mom. She died 5 years ago and dad was never the same. He started gambling and losing all of his money and even mine, the one that I worked hard, day and night.
I want to become a Pastry chef, but the scholarship that was offered to me, only covered half of it. And dad didn't want to pay for my career, so I work to the closest thing, a cute little bakery called, Aurora's Sweets. Is very popular here in New York.
"We have no money left, so you better ask for a raise, I have tons of debts to pay. And now with your baby, we will have no money!"
"Whose fault is it? You gamble a lot and lost all our money!" I was furious. "How about you start working again. I don't know, Get your company back on track."
Once upon a time, dad was a successful business man. Had his company, he run it with mom. When she died, he didn't care about the company anymore, fell into a dark place and never came back. But the one thing he never did, was to move on, meet someone new. He said he had the best and wasn't going to settle for less.
"Being there would only bring me memories of us together. Besides, I lost all the money and no one wants to do business with me. I'm a joke in the business world. And I already owe one company so much money. I have only ten more days to pay it or I will land in jail." He rubbed his hair in frustration and then yelled.
"Well, unless you win the lottery, you can always sell this house." I suggested and he glared at me.
"I will never fucking get rid of this house. It was your mother's dream to have it so I rather land in jail!"
I give up, I just shook my head and went to my room and locked it, I lay on my bed and rubbed my belly.
"I know I'm still young to be having a baby, but I can't wait to meet you." I smiled looking at my belly.
I need to find a new bank and make a savings account. One that dad doesn't know of and save money until I can leave this place. I can't keep living here, is too toxic and I don't want my baby to grow up in this environment.
Life has been great to me, but it could get greater if my dear father would step down from CEO and pass it on to me. His condition was, that I need to get married. He wants me to settle down with a nice girl and have kids. He is crazy if he thinks I'm giving up my freedom to play house. So I just work for him. But I know one day, I'll be the one in charge and giving orders. "Your dream is just one step closer. Just find some fake wife and done." My best friend, Matt told me. "He would know that is all well, fake. He wants it to be real." I sighed in frustration. "On the bright side, dad has been away for three months so, I can just tell him that I met someone." He left me in charge of everything for three months, and having this much power and everything under my control, has made me want to be CEO, so bad. I think he thought that I couldn't handle it, but I showed him that I was more than capable for this and ready. "Then back to my suggestion, get a fake wife and everyone is hap
I got ready, and before leaving, dad just gave me a hug and that he was sorry. I really hope he gets it together. "We're meeting my parents right now. Behave and follow my lead." He said as his eyes were focused on the road. "Yes Master, whatever you wish." I rolled my eyes. He chuckled. "My sister will be there too, she will ask you how we met, where, when and many more. Don't get nervous or you'll blow up everything before it starts." "Don't worry honey." I kissed his cheek, "everything will be alright." I wanted to slap him so hard. As always, I spoke too soon. He parked in front of a mansion and as soon as I opened the door of his car, I threw up. "Seriously Savannah!?" "It's called morning sickness!" I huffed, "I can't control it, okay." "What's with the yelling?" We turned to see, a young woman. "Wow, morning sickness has gone wild." "Sorry, I'll clean this up. I couldn't help it." I said sheepishly. "Don't worry about it, I'll send someone to clean it." She smiled, "I
Luke, got busy with his dad, so instead of two weeks, we waited for two months to get married. So now, here I am all dressed up for my wedding. "You look beautiful." Valerie, smiled at me. "You're finally showing." I rubbed my belly and smiled. I’m three months today. I can't wait to find out what I'm having. Luke, has been bringing women and banging them for the past week. I hope he is wrapping his dick, or else he might get a surprise in 9 months. "I'm so happy, I get to marry the love of my life and we're having a baby together. Doesn't get better than this." I grinned at her. "True that. Now let's get you down that aisle." She smiled. I walked alone down the aisle. It was best this way. I'd be lying if I said he looked ugly. Luke, is handsome and he knows it. Which brings the question again, why me? Why not someone else? The only good thing about this, is that dad is finally getting the company to the old ways. He is out of the country right now, with a few clients. Have I fo
A week went by, and since I'm three months old pregnant, we said I didn't want to travel for safety. He told his parents that once the baby is born and old enough, he would take me to a proper honeymoon. I was so bored in this place. Sure is big, has everything you could entertain yourself with. But I'm used to being active and not locked in a house. I went to his Room and knocked. He opened the door and gave me an annoyed look. "What do you want?" "Good morning to you too, sweetie." I batted my eyelashes. "Savannah, I'm busy getting ready. What do you want?" "Since I'm bored and you owe me." I said as I entered his room. "I have a request, actually two." I sat on his bed. "Talk fast, I'm losing my patience." He said as he put on a tie, and was trying to make a knot, but was failing. This is what happens when you do things without patience. I got up and walked over to him and removed his hands from the tie and fix it for him. "There, all done." I looked up at him as his eyes w
The next day I heard a very loud knock on my door. Ugh, I checked the time and it was 7:30am. I'm going to kick his ass. I opened it and he just entered the room. No good morning, nothing. How rude. "It's really early, why are you here?" I yawned. "Let yesterday be, the first and last time, you talk rude to Laura!" "I told her the truth, besides the whole, I see you as a money sign." I rolled my eyes at him. "You saw us?" "Yeah, I heard her annoying voice, and guided me to the kitchen, I thought you two were gonna have sex there." I told him. "How do you put up with her annoying vo-" "Savannah," He was about to lose it. "Laura, is just a friend who I really care about." I sighed. "Luke, you don't care about her, nor even love her. She left you for years." "Pfft. You know nothing. And I told you to stay out of my private life." "Listen to me very clear. You force this marriage on me, I'm behaving and acting like a loving wife, just so you can get whatever it is that you want."
Monday finally arrived. Luke, gave me a car to drive around, instead of taking the bus or a cab. I decline, but he somehow won and I took the car. On the bright side, no sign of Laura. We entered the classroom for our first baking class and I was on cloud nine. At least something good came out of this marriage, I get to do what I love. "Chocolate pie. Easy for your first class. As the semesters advance, some desserts will be difficult, but that's what we're here for, to learn and get better." The chef told us. As I worked on my pie, the chef approached me and smiled. "I admire you, Savannah." "You know me?" I asked as I, grabbed the chocolate. "After this class, let's go to the cafeteria and talk." With that said, she went to check on others. Okay, that was weird. Though her face seems a little familiar. I'll ask later. After a few hours, we finished our pies and she graded us. Some she said were good, and some weren’t. "Looks like someone has experience." She said in between b
I ended up falling asleep, I thought he was going to come to my room and yell at me. But he continued his party, I guess luck was on my side. Hours later, I heard a loud bang on my door. Okay, I was wrong. I dragged myself to the door and opened it. If looks could kill, I'd be dead right now. "I'm sleepy, how can I help-" "What the fuck, Savannah!" I yawned as I walked to the couch and took a seat. "What?" "You know exactly what. Why on earth would you throw a vase on his head!?" I pressed my lips together to hold me back from laughing. He just stared at me. "It wasn't that bad. He deserved it." I rolled my eyes. "That was like watching a freaking cartoon character get hit by something." "I'm-" Yeah I couldn't hold it anymore, I laughed. "Stop laughing." He sighed. "I had to say that, our crazy neighbours fight a lot and that one time I got hit by a plate on the head." I laughed some more. "He believed you?" "Not the brightest bulb in his family." "Admit it, it was funny
Luke went after me and we got in the car. Well that was after I gave him hell."Nothing happened." He said as his eyes were on the road.I sighed, "I'm tired, Luke. Between Laura and Grace, I can't anymore, they annoy me so much. And some of your friends were rude, and you didn't even say anything.""I was going to, but like always, you went ahead with violence.""You make me sound bad. All I did was defend myself, you know. It's not like I have a husband who loves me and wants to protect me." I shrugged. "The one I have, spends time with other girls.""Do you have feelings for me? Is that what this is?""How could I? We're in a loveless marriage. And is not like we spend time together. The only time we did, was that day at the park." The thing is, when I first saw Luke, at my dad's business parties, I developed an immediate crush, then I met Owen, and that crush disappeared. When I saw, Luke again, months ago, I got a little excited. But that didn't mean I wanted to get married, lik
