CHAPTER THIRTY

Once I was back to my bed, the neighbors had put a curtain in the middle of our beds to separate the two of us.I lay back in my bed yet my stomach grumble loudly due to the enormous hunger i felt .I turned to my side and ignored it.I looked at the curtain, there silhouettes could be seen from my end, a male silhouette had joined, guessing the girl’s father had returned. I turned to my other side as a wave of loneliness washed over me.I held unto my pendulum stomach and was whisked away into sleep.The next day , i woke up early , washed my face, I had no soap and nothing, no one around here played with their necessities.After using them, they kept them far away.I never minded, I walked away around the neighborhood, marking ever turn I’d taken to avoid getting lost.Good thing , we were in a town, as I walked , their echoing laughters vibrated in my ears, there Spanish language too, the aroma filled the air as I walked .Then I noticed the restaurant at the head of me.I k

CHAPTER THIRTY ONE

I quickly nodded.“I am fine.” I said casually. I did not notice that the piece of paper that contained the address had dropped until I’d walked a few feet away from where I’d stood.“Monique, you have dropped something, I think it’s a pa.. per.” She hesitated at the end of the sentence. I quickly turned and rushed back to where she stood.I yanked the piece of paper out of her hands quickly. It tore into half, I felt my blood boil with rage immediately .“I am so sorry,” Maribel said as she bent down to pick the other paper that had fallen down .“No it’s fine, forget it,” I muttered as I quickly bent down to grab the paper out of her hands. I just didn’t like how she’d opened the paper and read something that was private. She stood up at once, I didn’t realize when the back of my head knocked my nose and made me groan in pain.I held my nose as I felt the pain radiate through my body .“Oh my God, I am so sorry ,” she muttered as much made my blood boil even more.I felt my han

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO

There was no way that I was going to buy a hundred dollar dress without money . So I never left. I’d rather the manager sent me away by herself.I dared not to take a step away.“I said that I am here to see the manager, and I ain’t leaving without seeing her,” I stubbornly replied.“Monique, we better leave before things get worse,” Maribel said while clinging to my hand and pulling it. I hesitated.“We are so sorry, me and my friend are going to leave,” Maribel said to the waiter who nodded yet her gaze not leaving us.“No, I am not going anywhere until I see the manager,” I grunted. The waiter looked like he was tired of his in that moment.“You better leave before I call security on you,” he muttered through gritted teeth while not trying to sound too loud.“Monique, please, let’s go.” Maribel said.“No,” I replied boldly.“I demand to see the manager,” I muttered while not leaving my posture, my gaze sharply stared at the waiter.“Security ,” the waiter signaled the big

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE

I realized how I’d lost my job before I’d actually started.“You scared us for a minute,” the manager said like it was nothing.“I am so sorry, please don’t fire me yet , please,” I quickly stood up and fell on my knees as I begged the manager. He pulled me up immediately not allowing me to stay on the floor.“it’s fine girl, I completely get it, don’t worry about it, you still have a job here,” he reassured me. I sigh loudly .“Just go ahead and wear the uniform, I want you to collect all the used cutlery and wash it, including plates and glasses of wine,” he continued to explain.I quickly picked the uniform , walked to the room and wore them just like she’d said, they hang over my body properly that I had no worry of my pregnancy being noticeable.She then leads me to the sinks, I find the essentials needed in order to wash the utensils, soap , everything .A few plates were still in the sink, I carefully grabbed one and washed it clean, Soon, the huge pile of plates was clean. I

I then reached for whatever I thought was money and headed to the hospital, I did not check the amount considering the pain I was feeling had blurred my vision.My phone rang, I quickly reached for it and answered.“Hello,” I groaned through the phone.“Girl where are you ? Are you… okay?” The familiar manager’s voice beamed through the line.“No, I went to the hospital, I think I am due today,” I replied shakily, while out of breath.“Ohh, why didn’t you let me know, send me the address, I’ll come see you,” He said.I cleared my eyes, and gapped widely. Midelin hospital, it read.“Midelin..Madeline. .. hospital, something like that,” I replied while feeling the urge to go to the restroom shoot Up.“Oh, Midelin hospital, okay girl, wait there, On my way there.” He said as I heard the other end go silent.I looked at the dark screen while trying to find Maribel’s number.The damn sun was making it harder, so was the pain, I was partially blind at that moment.Luckily, a nurse sa

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE

I sat on the wheelchair and was wheeled to the labour suite.By the time we got there, I was feeling the urge to push.Immediately, they helped me change into the hospital gown and led me inside.While inside, the midwives prepared everything that was to be used for the operation.“Get ready to push,” one midwife said, I was beyond ready.“Where is the father of this baby?” The nurse asked, I shook my head while in pain.“We can not perform any thing on you without the baby’s father’s consent, we are a Catholic Church that believes in togetherness,” the midwife hesitated.The pain was overwhelmingly strong, I called Shatra, maybe he could handle them.The look on her face was filled with confusion .“What’s going on here?” She wondered.“They need the baby’s father to consent,” I whimpered while out of air.“What is wrong with you people? What if my friend was rapped huh? Can’t you see that she is dying?” She desperately yelled at the nurses.“We just want someone to pose as

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX

While taking care of Anayas, the hotel called, mostly the manager , urging me to go back, i couldn’t because of Anaya, I had no body to leave her with.One afternoon , after I’d washed our laundry and decided to take a quick nap, my cell phone vibrated, Shatra was calling me.I picked it up while dissatisfied with her constant nagging about the job.“Hey Shatra, you better find another person for the job and leave me alone,” i immediately said through the phone.“I see, you quit the job,” a male familiar voice beamed through the line.“Mateo!” I was surprised to hear his voice, it had been quite a while since he’d last came to visit me and Anaya.“Where are you?” He asked.“I am at the help center,” I answered as I sat up in bed.“Okay , I will be right there,” he said as he hang up on me.I sat up in bed and waited patiently for him to show up.After a few hours of waiting, he showed up, except with an arm sling around his shoulder.I quickly walked towards him with Anaya in my

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN

Personally, I’d never been to Mateo’s apartment before, whenever I was picking Anaya, I would find him in front of his apartment building and he would urge me to go with him inside.This time around, I accepted, we walked through the long corridors of the building, over the endless steps until we stood in front of a grey door.He turned the key, we entered, the fresh smell of mints, baby diapers and shaving cream hit my nose. His house was simple, two cushion chairs, a table, a tv, and the rest of the house equipments, it was simple, mixed with elegance.For a man, I did not except him to be organized in such a manner, everything was in its place. I noticed everything, even Anaya’s photos.He’d framed her photos , it should have felt weird for me to see him hanging photos of a baby that isn’t his but I was already used to him being sweet towards her anyway.He quickly rushed over to his kitchen.“Coffee or water?” He asked me.“ Water,” I said a as I quickly turned and found the nea

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT

I walked in front of him , i could feel his puzzled look burning my back, as soon as i walked out of the lobby to the streets, i let out the air I was holding, I was too nervous to say goodbye to him.He called me a cab, which he always pays for to take me back to the help center.He opened the door for us, and we got in.He leaned through the window.“Call me, when you get home,” he said , I dared not to look at his face . I nodded.“Okay, see you,” he said as the cab driver drove away.As we drove past everything, one thing i couldn’t get over with, were his eyes, that man had always been hot and I’d never wanted to see him like that.Now that it had happened , I was getting cold feet over it, mixed feelings. I’d never want to go through what I’d been through, not again.I didn’t realize that we’d arrived in front of the help center until the driver beckoned me.“Ma’am, we are here,” he muttered, trying not to hide his accent.“Oh,” I got out of my daze, opened the door and w

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE

I left work early that evening, then walked to his apartment, I met him in front of his apartment, properly dressed in black sewed trousers and a T-shirt.“Hey, good evening, how are you doing?” I asked as I walked towards them.“We are fine but missing you,” he muttered as Anaya squirmed with excitement the moment she had my voice in her baby stroller.I bent towards her and tickled her,“Well i missed you too,” I said while bent, making everything seem like there wasn’t no context .Then I stood up and looked at him.“how was your day?” I asked, I had no idea why I even asked such a question because I’d never asked it before.“Good, actually,” he responded.“And you?” He asked.“Good,” I responded with a lower tone.“Ya?” He asked , I quickly nodded.“Okay let’s go, I have a friend of mine who has recommended us to these affordable nice apartments, follow me,” he said as he wheeled the stroller.We walked quietly for a while, it was in the evening so the streets were so full
