160. PROMISES

I ate breakfast awkwardly. The doctor had checked me then said he would liaise with my previous doctor, switch my file to him because he would take over everything concerned with my health. I was not sure how comfortable I was with that. I had loved my doctor but we would see how it went and I would switch back if not happy with Ryan’s. I loved that Ryan’s doctor did house calls so I did not have to visit the hospital. I was eating and Ryan was just staring at me. The sun rays were coming from behind him, making him look like God’s favorite demon. He wore suit pants and a white shirt which was simple but somehow looked so good and so expensive. Of course the top buttons were open, showing his chest. He wore a gold necklace. He looked ravishing, a bad boy in his true form. His hair was neat but in a messy way. I kept stealing glances at him from the side of my eye while gulping my food down. My manners were out of the window, I was starving and they had set up a large table just for

161. BIT BY BIT

“Hi mom,”“Hi baby, how are you, my pumpkin pie?” My mom’s cheerful voice made me smile.“I am good mom, I am actually coming over. I have important news to tell you and dad.” “Really!” My mom’s excitement was pouring over to me. I never thought I would bring such news to them. “Yes, and I am coming with someone, we’ll be staying the night.” “Neria, who is it? What is happening? I can’t wait, tell me please,” I giggled because I could just imagine her in my head, she was a very impatient person.“No mom, I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you over the phone.” She sighed, “Okay, let me go to the market, I will cook a feast, I can’t wait. I miss you my angel.” “I miss you too mom, love you.” “Love you too my pumpkin, bye,” My eyes moved to Ryan who’s stare had moved from wanting to lock me in the house to confusion. He seemed uncomfortable sitting there. “Can we leave now?” Sean asked from the front seat.“Yes,” I said back cheerfully, having shared the location so they could GPS it. I

162. THE INSANITY OF IT ALL

I am sure Ryan regretted asking what I was reading, and the other two were blaming him. Not only did I completely turn the music off, I told them the story from the very first book I had read. Even when he got a call I paused then continued as soon as he dropped the call. No one had ever asked me about my books. This was my time to shine, and I was so happy because it was the best romance series ever. Did I talk all the way to my hometown? Yes, yes, I did. “In fact, I think all men should read romance novels. They wouldn’t be so bad in relationships. Actually, they could learn a lot.” Was my final sentence as I huffed out, done telling them about the romance series I was reading. “Are we done now?” Ryan asked, seeing how hopeful he was. I had tortured him way too much; I felt bad pushing on. “Yep, that’s where I am right now.” I said back gleefully, lucky for him, or he would be hearing more about the brooding single cowboy dad who was too prideful to realise he was in love with

163. FLASHING RED FLAG

*Added trigger warnings for the book: suicide, self-harm* “Mom,” I jumped out and ran to her. “My pumpkin pie!” She ran to meet me and scooped me in her arms. We nearly fell, both laughing out loud. After a mini second I finally pulled my head up, eyes falling on my dad. “Dad!” I sprung from mom to him. He also scooped me in his arms and hugged me tight. He smelled like he just stepped out of a shower. I am sure my mom screamed at him to get back to the house then threw him in the shower. It felt like an eternity while he hugged me. I then stepped back. I was truly happy. “Mom, dad, I brought you someone.” I said, stepping back giddily. I turned, showing them Ryan. He stood a few feet away, hands on his side. His eyes were focused on something and as I followed his gaze, realized he was staring at my dad. A chill went down my body. For a long second no one spoke and the air even fell silent I swear. Ryan looked stone cold and frozen. My heart began galloping in fear.“We brou

164. A BLOODY CHOICE

I cried myself a river silently in the backseat while the rest of the car was eerily silent. Ryan’s head and shoulders were on my lap. I ran my fingers through his hair. My head told me to leave, my heart told me to stay. I knew which to listen to but for some reason I was reluctant. It was too early for this. There were no attachments at all. It should have been easy to pack my bags and leave. I heaved and a hiccup followed. In my head I kept playing it over and over again, it got scarier the more I went through it. What was Ryan going to do with my dad?The cry pulled out again and the cycle began. I just wanted to fold myself into a ball and drown in my sorrows. My eyes caught on my ring and I stared at it. Was it really worth it? I knew it wasn’t. Knew he wasn’t. What if he turned violent with me? What if next time he would be charging to me? What if he did and Sean is not there? It was the longest drive of my life. When we reached the house Sean jumped out and walked around t

165. BREAK MY HEART ONE PIECE AT A TIME

I tossed and turned. I could not get Sean’s words out of my head. Once again, I picked up my phone where I had written my notes. What I had thought would be a twenty minute talk turned to a two hour discussion. “When he gets anxious you will see a tweak on his right eye. His right hand will start slightly trembling. He will conceal it with his left…...” The conversation bled back into my mind. Sean taught me all the signs and how to assist once noted. He taught me which pills to give Ryan in different situations, told me what to give if he is triggered or anxious when drunk so I don’t overdose him. I stared at the long list, running my eyes through it while my heart was soaked heavily. It left me emotional, once again feeling the emotions nearly consume me. I did not know if it was pregnancy hormones or what, but I just wanted to keep crying. I don’t know if it was because this, mapped on my screen, was now Ryan’s life, pills and triggers. I swallowed, refusing to pity him. Ryan w

166. AT HIS MOST DANGEROUS STATE

Sean’s P.O.V. I could see it in his eyes, he had made a decision. I could see it in his eyes, he was done. If I had not seen the chopper land, he would have left me and we would have lost him forever. It had happened before but rarely had it gone to this state. It had taken everything to pull him out of this state before but this time, it seemed different.This time he was worse, bad, and at the very bottom. No one dared to talk in the chopper, not knowing where to even begin, panic heavily gripping me. Even speaking could cause a tragic chain of events but I had to. Heavily, I worried about Neria. She had seen him at his most dangerous. What had he done to her? When waking he usually could not differentiate between nightmare and real, making it dangerous to be around him..I stared at my phone, waiting for Fina’s report on Neria, was she okay? I would never forgive myself if anything had happened to her. I felt the weight of it all weigh heavily on me. My phone buzzed.Fina: She’

167. WITHOUT HIM

Neria’s P.O.V. I woke up and was consumed with gloom. The morning sickness left me crying my eyes out over the toilet seat. I cried then just lay there, head on my arms, staring with red eyes at the white tile. When I finally got up my limbs felt the torture of the pins and needles sensation. It probably had been an hour just sitting in that position. I took a shower and walked out, not wanting to leave the bedroom. When I walked out, the bed was made and Fina waited for me. I could not even greet her, just stared and gave a short wave. She bowed her head back then followed me to the closet. None of us talked. My body was heavy. She helped me get my hair done and get dressed then tucked me back in bed. She seemed far away, her eyes nearly as vacant as mine. Were we worried about the same person? Every time I closed my eyes I saw that tortured look Ryan had worn, as if he had been broken with nothing left in him. I wrapped my arms around myself as I lay in bed. Breakfast was broug

168. MRS. ALLISTER

I had rested plenty the previous day but I was still tired. “Someone is here to see you ma’am,” Fina said when I got out of my shower.I frowned, wondering who it was but also happy to get a break from the worrying and torturing myself.. “Maybe wear something good for going out,” She added. “Will I be going somewhere?” I questioned Fina. “Maybe, “ She said with a mischievous look which made me excited. I loved surprises. I let my hair down, wore tailored cream pants with a black cardigan and a gorgeous trench coat going with flats, before walking out. I was still trying to learn everyone's names but there was just so much staff and I was bad with names but I greeted everyone with as large of a smile as I got. I had never seen people so happy to see me. Fina walked with me to the living room. “I will bring over breakfast.” She said then took one look at the two ladies waiting there before leaving. The two women stood up. They looked lethal and ready to take over the world. Smart

169. NEW FOUND FAMILY

Whoever said rich housewives did nothing definitely lied to us because I was more than exhausted.My days were packed and busy. I had slept in a hotel for three days in the week because they were building my studio back in the house and did not want me near there for safety purposes. It was cool by me and I was so happy because my studio was large and gorgeous. Of course most of it was pink, I could not help myself. It’s not like I would have a lot of people in there, it was just mine, my personal heaven where I could record my songs. It inspired me to put out my own music under my new registered record label. I was not doing it for fame or money, I just wanted other people to hear my songs from me, with my voice. It felt so dear to me and I was inspired by the recent events of my life. We picked two brand new cars for me, all details fine picked by me and my personal shopper, Rosebella. A personal designer was picked for me, doing nothing but designing clothes exclusively for me.
