"Huh? Oh, yeah! You can come over. I need some help unpacking.""Sounds good. I'll bring a couple of beers and we can watch a wrestling match on pay-per-view. I hear it's one of the big events tonight."I didn't want to correct him that they weren't really called pay-per-views anymore. I found myself using older terms too and it wasn't like we usually watched wrestling either. I couldn't remember the last time I watched a match. Likely when I was still enlisted and it happened to be on in the dayroom. Other than that, I had never bothered to watch it willingly on my own."Yeah, let's do that. Get something a bit hoppy if you can.""I'll do my best to get you one wearing a tuxedo if it will help you get out of whatever funk you're dealing with."We both laughed. That was always something I could count on with Maurice. He knew when something was wrong with someone before they ever said anything and knew how to make them smile."I'll see you then."I tried to tidy up the condo as best as

I covered my nose as I made my way down into the subway. It smelled like someone had farted multiple times, and the smell was trapped in a strange bubble that everyone existed inside within. Graffiti covered one of the walls with a mixture of regular spray-painted tags and a few scribbles with markers. Further ahead, one of the overhead lights flickered, adding to my headache. I turned away from the light as I passed by, focusing on the ground to avoid stepping on someone's shoes.I turned another corner into the main subway area where the trains would pull in. One rail on each side with multiple pillars dotted the landing. I leaned against one next to the yellow line on the left side where the train I needed would pull in.The one on the right was the first to arrive, sending large bursts of hot air swirling through the platform. I closed my eyes against the warmth and let out a heavy sigh. Mine should arrive in a few minutes if the signs were correct, and if no kid decided to surf o

JAREDI leaned back in the chair as the other board members argued about the next steps in our expansion plans. One group proposed investments in additional real estate and to build a new apartment building in Manhattan while others said it would be better to start expanding our service offerings. None of it interested me. Something about how the day was going made me not confident in anything. I wasn't going to make any final decisions today.My phone consistently buzzed almost non-stop. I wanted to answer it, but the discussions were so heated, it was difficult to get away. I had no idea who it was, but if they were calling me this much it had to be important. I hoped they would leave a voicemail so I could follow up after the meeting.The door leading to the hall cracked open. Jessica poked her head inside and raised her brows as if to silently call me over.I cleared my throat and stood up, "Pardon me, gentlemen.""But sir!" one of them exclaimed.I shot them a glare and straighte

I snatched it off the hook and flipped through the pages before stopping on the last page. Pregnancy. She was pregnant. It didn't make sense. I had seen plenty of women early in their pregnancy and not once had I heard of someone finding themselves hospitalized because of it. I glanced back down to see if I could get any other clue as to what was going on. I flipped back to the first page and noticed her blood type was underlined a few times."RH negative."I put the chart back on the wall and walked back into the room. I sat in one of the chairs and pulled out my phone to search for anything online. Most of the articles listed mothers needing special treatment, because those with Rh-negative blood could attack their child's bodies and make them increasingly sick as well."Damn it!" I snapped and shoved my phone back into my pocket, "You shouldn't be dealing with this."I could check the chart again to see if there were weeks listed for her pregnancy, but it was starting to get loud i

We made our way inside the apartment building and into the elevator. No one else joined us as I hit the button for the fifth floor. We stood there quietly, an awkward silence between us."Your perfume," Jared said suddenly."What?""It smells nice."I sniffed my shirt. There was a faint scent of my perfume from the day before. I barely noticed it, but I made a mental note to use it again the next time I met with Jared.The elevator stopped on my floor and I led him toward my apartment door. My heart raced as I unlocked it. I couldn't remember the last time I had someone stop by my apartment, let alone a guy I liked. I leaned my forehead against the door and sucked in a deep breath. I needed to pull myself together. He wasn't here for any fun things. It was just to make sure I got home safe, eat some pizza, and talk about the pregnancy.Jared put his hand on mine and twisted the key to unlock the door all the way. "Let's get you inside."I slumped on the couch and put a hand on my stom
