The next day i had my bath and changed my clothes, I couldn't hide my puffy eyes or even the eye-bags i woke up with, but all that didn't matter, i wore the best clothes *it shouldn't even be considered as someone's clothing * but it's the only thing i have to wear. I packed my hair into a ponytail and took my phone .

I didn't have money for a cab or bus so i just walked down to the hospital

*Well it wasn't as long as I expected*, i went straight to June's room and she was awake, i put on a big smile on my face and approached her

"Juju" i smiled at her although my heart was breaking my sister had to make it

"Bre bre " her voice coming out as a whisper 

"Why am i in the hospital Bre?" She asks and i swallowed the lump in my throat

"You are a little sick sweetie, so I brought you here to get better" i tell her

"Is it the flu" she looks at me and I couldn't find my voice so I nodded "i have to go to work Ju, but I'll be back to see you" i tell her and she smiles

"On your way back Bre, can you get me some doughnuts, I haven't had one in a very long time please " she asks and i nod

"I'll be back Ju" i kissed her forehead and walked out of the room, wiping the tears that may have fallen

I walked out if the hospital *now i have to find a job* i spent the entire afternoon job hunting without success, i went to a coffee shop, a restaurant, i even applied as a cleaner but i was still rejected 

*Maybe it's not them and it's me, obviously it has to be me. Who would want me to work for them*

I walked to the park where i saw different parents with their children, i sat down looking at them. How they played with their kids, how the mothers blended with the children *i wish i had all of that*

Tears clouded my vision *goodness this is too much for me* i hung my head on my hands as tears dropped down my eyes, i wiped my tears and sat up straight, standing up i started to walk towards the hospital. Getting there i went straight to June's room and saw that she's asleep, i walked over to her bed stand and stroked her hair

 "June, I promise i am going to do my utmost best to raise this money" i kissed her forehead and stepped out of the room and tried to get the doctor 

I saw him at the hall, talking to some patients and i stood there awkwardly watching the exchange between the both of them. After she left he turns to look at me 

"Good day miss" he smiles at me and i muster up a little courage and gave him the fakest smile i could muster

"Good afternoon doctor, you said i could do the test today" i tell him and he nods

"That's true, if you would follow me please" he says and i walk beside him

"Have you checked on your sister ?" He asked me 

"Yes i have, I'm just coming back from her room" i tell him

"That's fine, Alright let's go in" After the test was conducted i waited for the results in the doctor's office 

I say down in the doctor's office, nervously waiting for the test result's, my palms were sweaty under the air conditioner, i heard the door creak and I turned expecting to see the doctor but instead a man of about 30 years, 6'5 tall came in, a brunette with a green piercing eyes came in

His green eyes looked at me "I'm sorry, is doctor hales not around " he asks and i lost the ability to speak so i nodded

*goodness, I really am nervous about this test*

I watched as he left and I fidgeted with my fingers, the door opens again and this time the doctor comes in, sitting opposite me he brings up the test and wore his glasses

I prayed silently and he cleared his throat

"Miss, I'm afraid you're not a good match for June" he says and my legs went weak, I couldn't even open my mouth to talk, my hands started to sweat so much and shake

*I couldn't even be useful to help my sister* 

Tears streak rolled down my cheeks, I couldn't listen to anything the doctor was saying, i just kept nodding.

I saw his mouth stop moving and i stood up to leave, The doctor held back my arm

"Don't worry Aubrey, everything will be alright" I nodded and gave him a weak smile, he had never called me by my name, but now he did it must really be serious. 

I couldn't find it in me to go back to June's room, so I just walked out of the hospital walking aimlessly. I saw that my phone started to ring

*who could be calling me* 

I picked it and heard the voice I thought I would not ever hear again, the one person that abandoned my sister and i was calling.

"M-mom" I whispered, hoping and praying it was her"

"Hello mom, is it you?" I asked but the person wasn't replying.

Sighing i cut the call and walked to where my legs took me too, tears rolled down my cheeks as i walked back home and met my landlord standing in front of my apartment.

*it couldn't get worse than it already has*

"Good evening Mr David" i greeted him but he looked at me with anger

"Save your nonsense Aubrey, i have been waiting here to see you especially, i need my house rent please" he demanded and my palms started to sweat again

"M-mr David, please I'm really sorry for delaying your rent. I have been working so hard to pay , June has been in the hospital but please give me a week and i will pay" i pleaded with him and i saw pity in his eyes

As much as i hate people pitying me, i also pitied myself

"I know you're a good person Aubrey, but i also need my money so i would be giving you a week to gather it" he says and walks away

I sighed heavily and walked in

I heard Aubrey yell over the phone and I groaned internally, She was getting more cranky and demanding everyday, Now I am out trying to get chocolates and Icecream at Two in the midnight "Yes Babe!" I replied and heard her sigh over the phone "You're tired of me, aren't you?" She says sadly and I groaned internally "I can never be tired of you babe" I tell her"So you are getting my chocolate and Icecream?" She asks excitedly and I rolled my eyes "Yes, I am on my way back" I say and I heard her giggle, I cut the call and drove towards the house.Since Aubrey got pregnant, I've been going out of my mind trying keep up with her midnight cravings, Well Aubrey and I got married here in NewYork about two years ago in a simple manner, well Aubrey wanted it that way and U couldn't object to it!Having married her was and Is one of the best thing that has happened to me, also her getting pregnant, It still seemed

    Aubrey's Pov1 Year After"Aubs, you need to calm down" Amanda says and I looked at her "Calm down! Calm down! We aren't even done with the decorations yet, how do you expect me to calm down?" I said and shut my eyes closed, I was really fustrated at this point that I didn't know what to do. My phone starts to ring and I picked it without checking the ID "What!!" I bellowed into the phone and heard a deep chuckle "You might want to rethink that help I offered" Chris says and I groaned internally "Fine, do your magic!" I say sarcastically and sat down looking at the mess that was made, Amanda was no where in sight after I yelled at her already but I mean, can you blame me ? My restaurant opening is tomorrow and I haven't even gotten half of anything done, Now I know you are surprised to hear Resturant and not a Coffee shop but I guess changes are part of life.I changed my mind from a Coffee shop and decided to open a restaurant, Amanda has been hired as the chef even though I was agai

    Aubrey's PovI couldn't believe what I am about to do, Here I am with Chris half naked on the bed, he stands up and unbuttoned his shirt, I averted my gaze away from his toned chest, I heard him chuckle and his fingers touched my legs up to my thighs, The sensation I was feeling was indescribable, I felt his fingers grazed my inner thigh and I gasped, he slowly laid unto me as his lips found mine again, I slowly melted into the kiss and his hand grazed my feminine part even with the pantiesHis lips left mine and slowly and kissed my neck down the parting of my breasts, My breath hitched as I felt his breath linger on my nipple before his tongue circled my nipple, I felt my stomach flipped, I shut my eyes tighter as pleasure flowed through my body, I have never before felt this amount of pleasure, I shuddered at his touch (Not in a bad way, but in a good way) His lips left my nipple and kissed my tommy way down, I felt his lips down my abdomen and still going down, I f

    About a week and a half has passed and I've seen Noah about twice, Chris calls me everyday to know how I am doing and even Emila has called me, June whines into the phone at every opportunity she gets about how much she misses me and wants me to come back home, I couldn't help but laugh at her silliness.I already visited my old home although it is now occupied by some other people, I got flashes of my childhood with my parents and how much they loved each other until it all went south! I saw Hannah once and she got teary eyed on seeing me, she kept apologizing to me She genuinely felt guilty about me leaving the town but I told her it wasn't because of her or her mom!Everyone kept complimenting me on how good I look that I almost started to believe it, Maybe I actually did look good, I can say my staying here did make me feel better about myself, I no longer felt paranoid about Isabelle or Nicole, I felt more peace and at ease just by being here and I totally loved it! I visited my f

    The next day, Chris's call woke me up from bed and I smiled immediately I saw his name on my screen "Hello!" I say and heard some shuffling over the phone until he responded, we spoke for a couple of minutes and hung up the call.I got out of bed and had my bath , I wanted to visit my dad's grave today, after five years! I know it is long overdue but you can't blame me for that, I prepared myself mentally to face my dad, even though he wasn't alive I still felt his presence more constant here. I sighed and walked out of the hotel, trying to locate where I could get flowers, I saw a flower shop across and I went into get someI came back outside after I had gotten one and I stopped at Taxi to take me to the town cemetery, It felt like I was going to see my dad physically even though he was dead but then again, I could feel his presence more around here"We are here ma'am " The taxi driver says to me and I looked up to see we had gotten there, I searched through m

For once in myife simce my mom left us, I would be going somewhere without June and I wanted too, of course I know June would be in safe hands and I don't have to worry about anything here!"Aubrey!"

I replied and he walked closer to me, enclosing me into a bear hug, I sighed as I got comfortable in his arms "I will miss you Aubrey!" He says and I chuckle "It's just two weeks, Greenie" I say and he chuckled and kissed my forehead, I tilted my head upwa

    Aubrey's PovThe time seemed to stop as I looked back and forth at Chris and Isabelle who were both laying on the floor with blood surrounding them! I couldn't think straight as I clutched Chris's shirt tightly, Some nurses and doctor came over immediately and took him on a stretcher, My mind could focus on anything, I couldn't think about anythingChris just got shot because of me! He got shot with a bullet that was meant for me! I rushed out with the strecher that Chris was laying on as tears streamed down my face "Please help him" I cried hysterically "Doctor White has just been shot, Get the operating room ready please " I heard someone say as we approached a room "Aubrey, you can't come in" I heard the familiar doctor say and I looked at him "B-but, he is.." I stuttered, still crying and he holds me by my shoulder "He will be fine Aubrey, Really he will be fine" He says and I watched as he walked into the room Chris was wheeled in, I stood out there pacing a

    Aubrey's PovIt felt like I was in those action movies where they throw a knife and you catch it but No, this is real life and a knife is being thrown at me! I ducked my head and looked at the knife that was currently stucked into the curtainMy heart beat went up from 50 to 200, I just had a knife thrown at me, my palms were sweating as hell right now as i shakily looked at Isabelle who was smiling at me "Aww, Such a shame! Shall we play this game again?" She says and i shook my head profusely"Isabelle, please! I would leave your lives, please!!" I pleaded with her and glanced at the door, hoping and praying someone would come in"You shouldn't look there, no one would come here to save you, everyone is busy with that fire incident! So no saviour for you" She says and pulls out a gun, where from? I don't know!"Did you think I brought only the knife! Haha, you really cannot be that stupid right" She says and I looked at her shoc
