"Listen Ace, I know it's a lot on your plate, but you're just going to have to work harder in classes and less on the ball pitch if you want to go to college." Miss Gray said as soon as I was present.
Less time on the field?
“Miss Gray…”
“Football takes you to college to get your degree but your grades are also a dealbreaker. Well, just your math grades.”
Football is my life, it's the only other thing I'm great at.
“Yes I know, Mrs. Gray, but you're just gonna have to trust me, I'm working on it." I replied. &
“Hey.” She called as she sounded a little off.“Hey baby. I’m on my way.”“I’m at Timmy’s right now, I’m on my way home.”“The restaurant?”“Yeah, I had dinner with my grandparents.”“Oh… sure.”“See you soon.”“Definitely.” He dropped the call.“Did you tell him?” Rhoda flashed a sad smile.
Nine Years Later: 2021.“Get a maid.” Marilyn said to him.“I don’t need one, I barely even stay home.”“Yes! Because you keep crashing at my home.” She smiled.“And? You love it.”“Definitely not more than I love you.”“But…” he smirked.“But I’d love it if I have some no-Ace time with my new husband, we have vacations planned you know…” she blushed and he gasped dramatically, expressing his shock.
I paced my room thinking of what to do. There was no excuse to give Dad. I was expected to get married in two months and finally take over what’s rightfully mine.I was beyond ready for the job’s stress and responsibility. But the marriage part, not so much.I was fine with my numerous one night stands. That lifestyle best suited me. It was also a bonus knowing I didn’t even need to speak to have them head over heels for me. My looks and appearance already seal the deal way ahead.I could easily date any girl of my choice but they are far too cheap for my taste. I wanted a girl who wouldn't drool over me. One who could stand her ground and not follow my every whim like a hopeless puppy.I poured my
“Alright, I’m ready.” He smiled as he exited the closet, clad in a new pair of shorts only. His bare chest out in the air.He dimmed the bright lights and she pointed to his cake.“I fixed some candles in it, want to blow them out?”“Yeah, sure.” He inched towards the cake.“Make a wish.” She said.He shut his eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candles.“Woo!” She cheered.“Thanks.” He grinned.
“Hi I’m Donovan.” Ace’s attorney extended his hand for a shake.“Audrey.” She smiled as she gladly accepted it. “You’re young.” The comment couldn’t help but slip out.“Yeah, let me guess, when he said attorney, you expected some grandpa to show up here. Didn’t you?”“I won’t even lie.” She said and they laughed.“I see y’all have met.” Ace showed up, a bright smile on his face.“Hey bro.” He shook hands with him.“Alright let’s get straight into it.” He sl
Her phone rang as she just got done with the dishes. It was Liam. She placed the call on loudspeaker.“Audi…”“What'd you do now?” She knew when he was hiding something.“How’re you doing?”“Liam get to the fucking point before I hunt you down.” She warned.“You know how you… have no friends?”“I have f-”“Except Jane.” He deadpanned.“Fine, what’s your point?”
It was happening, it was finally happening. She still couldn't believe it. It was her wedding day already. She was going to be a wife and most excitingly a mother. Audrey couldn't contain her joy. “We would be a happy family and do things togeth...” “Okay its all done.” the makeup artist said, yanking her away from her train of thoughts. She arose from the seat and the stylist fixed her dress, fluffing out the tail. There was a knock on the door. “Who’s there?” “Liam.” He called out from the other side of the door.
The plane landed at Bora Bora. I brought us here for her honeymoon, just to fulfill all righteousness. She was just like other girls, she’s like her. All selfish and materialistic. She had no idea where we were. I kept it a secret so I could surprise her. She got out of bed dressed in jean shorts and a crop top. I had the flight attendant get her that. “Hey.” she said approaching me. Why is she so clingy? “Hey.” I whispered coldly and she responded with a smile before walking the opposite way. I decided to ignore her and watch her come to me like a puppy like othe
