JENNA“What's happening mommy?” My fingers shook against the edge of my phone as I dialed my husband's number for the umpteenth time that minute. “David pick up!” I muttered under my breath, my voice cracking as the sound of two to five year olds running around rolled into my ears.I waited patiently for him to pick up but like all the other times I've called, the response I received was the same. Always the same. “Hello? You've reached David Parker, do well to drop a message after the ring.” My heart ticked heavily in my chest. Heart issues. I rubbed a hand over my chest to soothe the pain clawing at my heart but that didn't help. Seeing my two year old pull at the seams of my dress with teary eyes was equally devastating.For months, I reminded him of it. I couldn't believe he still forgot. Tapping on the end call button, I bent over to my daughter's level. “Don't worry, Chloe. I'm here and your birthday will still be a blast even if daddy is busy.”I brushed a loose strand of he

JENNAMy heart beat thundered against my ears. It was all I could hear. Either that, or the sound of distant voices in the background. I could barely make out the words in them. I just heard them.I tried to look around, to get my eyes to open but they didn't heed me. They stayed close on their own Accord, binding me to darkness for a long period of hours with my heart pounding heavily against my ears.My mind pulsed with a thousand questions. The one with the biggest weight was easy. Where was I?I tried to see if I could navigate. I tried to feel.I didn't feel a thing for the next few hours.And when I did feel, it was the sharp prickling pain that braced my veins. My breath caught in my throat and for the first time, my lips moved. I coughed.My eyes opened next.I saw lights. Bright ones.They bit right in, making me squirm on the spot I laid.Then I heard sounds.Repeated ones.“I see you've woken up.”I heard a voice cutting through the air. Soft. Light.Comforting.I turned my

JENNAMy flesh burned.The moment the both of them left, the silence in the hallway echoed in my ears. I moved around the room, legs trembling as I tried to think of the next step to take. I was restless.David had left with the divorce papers but the pen laid on the bed. I stared at it from where I stood for a long while before I moved towards the bed, reaching for it when all of a sudden, a knock came on the door and I jumped out of fear.The sound shook me to the core. The door pulled open and I turned almost immediately to see the nurse strutting into the room.She gave me a cold hard stare before she opened her lips to speak. “Why did you get up? You need a lot of rest.”I shook my head. “My whole world is crashing and the thing you tell me to do is calm down? If anything, that is the last thing I'm going to do.”My chest flared. I was beginning to panic.What about Chloe?She was all I had.How was I going to feed and raise her?Am I going to survive?A lot of questions swirled

JENNA“Sign here.”The nurse at the counter spine softly cut I saw right through the softness in her tone. I saw right through the pitiful smile she had on. I'd caught her laughing alongside a bunch of other nurses when I made my way out of the hallway. She froze when she met my gaze.I caught on to the fact that they were gossiping about me really quickly. The way they quickly dispersed immediately they saw me sold it out immediately. “Pen.”I didn't need to meet her gaze. The pen rolled to my side and I caught it, my head kept low. I gripped it tightly, scanning the discharge documents on the counter before I started signing on all the necessary fields.My fingers moved stealthily.And once I was done, I whipped my head back up, sniffling like it was nothing.“If that's all, I'll leave.”My lips quivered. The people walking in and out of the hospital couldn't take their eyes off of me.I walked out of the building with a rising heart ache. I moved slowly, eyeing everything and ev

BRANDONI really should've let the driver do his job.One second I was downing shots at the bar and the next, I was here, hands clutching the wheels tightly as my heart pounded heavily in my chest.I wasn't supposed to drive drunk. The shitty bastard I called my driver just happened to get on my nerves too damn often so I flipped the pages. I sent him back to the mansion and drove even if I could barely make out my surroundings.And now, I ran into a lady.I rushed out of my car instantly, my heart thumping heavily in my chest. When I got close enough, I bent over and reached for her. I stared down at her.She had a slender figure. She was barely conscious but I could still hear the ragged breathing puffing out of her nostrils. “Help.”I bent over immediately the moment I heard her whisper.I grabbed her arm slowly before raising her into my grip. I almost didn't know what to do. If it weren't for the gigantic hospital building right in front of me, my brain would've blanked out.

JENNAI jolted awake with a rush of adrenaline.A dull ache wrapped around the back of my head. Something about the hazy memories from last night. It all came rushing back. Like some god forsaken nightmare gnawing back at me.I pictured three moments.In one, my fingers quivered as I worked them against the discharge slip in the reception. In the second, I shuffled out of the hospital and ordered an Uber ride.And the last?Chaos.Total chaos.My breath hitched and for some awkward reason, my senses awakened.The soft smell of pine in the air was the first thing I noticed.The first sight that graced my eyes was the high ceiling.My ears welcomed the repeated beeps of a life machine.I didn't bother to wonder where I was. I'd lived this scene before. Except I didn't expect the walls to be this white and for the ceiling to be that high.The hospital room I stayed at had low ceilings and it reeked of antiseptic. Not pine. I lowered my gaze, yawning slowly as my eyes darted around, check
