Stay a while

They finally allowed her out of the hospital, they finally gave her all her medical records, finally told her that her baby was okay and nothing bad had happened to him, it took a while but Raya Bridges finally walked out of the hospital with her head bowed in utter frustration about how corrupt the hospital was. Their reasoning for keeping her hostage was that she one not the one who had paid for the hospital bill, it had been Ms. Markis and because of that, they did not owe her any explanation, they were not obligated to tell her anything about the care she had received, that they had told Ms. Markis all of that, even forwarded Raya's medical records to her so they were fine and not in the wrong by any means.They were being really rude to her because of how angry the Matriarch had been when she left, even threatening to cut off donations to the hospital because of how disrespectful and insolent Raya had been. Everybody from the hospital, even the receptionist at the front desk, th

Two:just tonight

Arlo's request caused Jenny's heart to beat really fast, her entire body came alive because of one phrase from the absolute love of her life“can you sit with me for sometime?” He had asked, her heart felt giddy at the thought that he wanted her…her! To sit with him, she felt accomplished, it felt like every single thing that she had ever wanted was finally going to be hers.it was finally working, Her secret obsession was finally starting to see her…like really see her.It felt like a full circle moment, like the universe had finally decided to stop giving her Lemons and instead decided to give her a tall glass of really chilled lemonade. Jenny smiled to herself, she had all these pent-up emotions. One seemingly harmless phrase from Arlo Markis and Jenny was already imagining their life together, she was already thinking about how beautiful it would feel to see him get on one knee and propose to her. She was already wondering what they would name their babies, she was sure that she w

Her fantasy

Raya had never hated anybody as much as she hated Raphael at that moment. The fact that he thought that he had the right to tell her what she could and could not do irked her. The fact that he thought she would just obey him, that she would forget everything she went through because of him, everything he and his psychotic team put her through, everything they put her mother through, how she was thrown out of his house for something she does no still understand, how he had watched from the window of the room upstairs as his chauffeur who had made it his duty to make her life a living hell since she got there ruthlessly threw her out.All these memories came back clearer and more stronger, it fueled the anger she felt towards him, made her want to rebel against him even more, made her want to make him feel every bit of pain and resentment and abandonment that she had felt in those moments.“You cannot tell me what to do!” Raya said. The driver stood awkwardly by the side of the car, no

Panic mode

Jenny's eyes widened in shock when Arlo leaned in to kiss her. She wanted to relax into the kiss, she wanted to savor the moment and keep the memory stored for later but for some reason she couldn't. This was what she had wanted since the beginning, this was what she had been dreaming of all day every day but now that it was happening it did not feel right, something about it felt off…forced…wrong. Jenny pulled away from the kiss, she looked away, awkward and Slightly embarrassed, it did not feel as she had imagined that it would, there was no fireworks in her chest, no butterflies running rampage in her stomach, nothing, it felt like nothing, just empty and hollow like it should not be, like it was not meant to be.Jenny's cheeks were crimson with mild discomfort, she avoided Arlo's gaze, and instead stared into her hands. Arlo of course noticed this discomfort and immediately became apologetic.“Oh shit, I'm sorry about that. I am such an idiot! I just thought…I'm such an idiot, I'm

Accidental meetups

The noise; the moans and low groans sounded like it was coming from somewhere far away, like somewhere from the inner rooms. Arlo was unsure if the sounds were real or it was just his mind making it up, he hoped that it was his mind making it up, he hoped that none of it was real but him standing there, the sounds rising and falling like tides in a beach proved to him that the scenario was anything but fake.Arlo felt a fear like he had never before. There were two things that could happen, two things that he can do; he could either walk away from all this and pretend like none of this ever happened or he could confront it head on by walking into the room and catching Vivienne doing exactly what he knew she was doing. Walking away was a safe choice, walking away would mean that he would not have to go through any of the heartbreak that was threatening to happen, walking away would mean that they could move on with this and maybe he could even forgive himself for kissing Jenny and who

Torn

Raya stood in front of Mimi's house. It was a Victorian style brownstone house which looked awkward amongst the other more modern suburban ones that surrounded it. She sighed as she stared straight ahead at the small gate that stood in the middle of the short fence. The gate and fence did nothing for security, it looked like it was there more for aesthetic reasons than for security, it complimented the general outlook of the house but it would of course not ward off any intending intruder.The sigh Raya let out was a sad one, once again she was going to be a burden on her oldest friend, once again she would have to lean on Mimi without any idea of how she might one day return the favor. She was empty handed, she did not have the mind to go back to her former apartment to pick up her things and even though she had wanted to, there was no way that that would have happened because there was no way that she was going to let Raphael's driver drive over there for her to pick them up because

The bait

The document in Raya's hand looked like it had been ripped up in anger, there were only a few pieces of it in the pillowcase. Raya felt horrible for prying and checking something that she was probably not meant to see, she put it back but then the curiosity crept up again. There was this instinctive feeling, this tiny voice in her head telling her that it was important for her to see the content of the document, that it somehow has something to do with her.With shaky unsure hands she opened all the crumpled pieces and laid them on the bed, she arranged them in the best way she could, it seemed like the bottom half of the document was missing but from what she could gather from the document, it seemed like the Mimi house was about to be foreclosed.Raya dropped the document, her heart thudded rapidly in her heart, she knew how much the house meant to Mimi, she knew all the beautiful memories that had been made here, all the irreplaceable memories that they both have had here. She look

Don’t walk away

Are you actually dumb or are you just trying to annoy me?” Maybelline said immediately the door swinged open and Arlo walked in. She was sitting in the large dark entrance room which had the fireplace that had come with the house when they had first bought it. The spitting sound of the fire burning up the wood seemed to echo Maybelline's anger. She had seen the entertainment news, she had watched her son being smeared with cake,she had seen the whole disaster that had gone on, the uproar that was caused by Arlo's ex-girlfriend Zara showing up. Maybelline had of course made her own plan to destroy Arlo and Vivienne's engagement party, she had of course set things in place to make sure that the proposal did not happen. Her plan was something a bit more subtle than what had ended up happening, her plan was something simpler, it was something that could be easily covered up and smoothed over before the media would get a hold of it. She had implanted s plant amongst A
