Tears, pain and aches flew by her as they dwelt in her. Seeing the numerous messages from her colleagues, now ex co workers questioning her about her choice of resignation broke her and she couldn’t help but clench her fists. How was she supposed to explain to them? What was she even going to tell them?
“Tell me Alexa, what made you change your mind?”
“Did you fight with someone?”
“Did someone try to force their self on you!”
All these messages kept flooding her phone and she couldn’t take it anymore, she just couldn’t. She switched off her phone as she threw it to the side, she could not answer their questions, not now at least.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Tears streamed down her cheeks, one day would come, perhaps she would be able to answer their questions then.
She placed her hand in her bag as she took out her wallet, opening it as she checked it thoroughly, she needed to be sure she had enough money. Even if she didn’t want to take care of herself, she had to think about her baby.
She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that she had enough money to move far away from Nolan and then start life afresh with her baby. She swallowed, this would have to be for the best.
She sighed as she opened one of the bags, staring at the baby supplies in it and she couldn’t help but be grateful for Anthony, at least he had gotten her baby these things.
She sighed, she could move away and start life anew even though she didn’t have that much money but then, at least she had some money to rent a dingy apartment and then start little by little. It was like they said, little drops of water made mighty oceans.
She would be like those little drops, she would make sure she made and prioritized every single chance she got.
TWO DAYS LATER…
Tears streamed down her cheeks as she twisted the Knob of the door before walking into the house, it was a small apartment which looked very dusty and old and it felt like rats had occupied the house for a very long time.
She coughed as the dust filled her nose and she walked to the window as she pushed it open with force. The window was stiff which meant it had being closed like that for a very long time.
Staring at the condition of the house, she could undertand why it had being deserted for so long and she turned to the man at the door who was staring at her questionably, he would definitely never have believed that someone would take this house.
“Will you take it?” He asked, just to be sure.
She nodded as she sniffled, “yes, I’ll take it.” She told him as she clenched her fists to stop the tears from pouring.
“That’s good then” he told her. “I’ll have it cleaned.”
She walked to the side as she held on to her stomach, “you’re my only priority, I’ll make sure I take care of you, no matter what” she spoke to herself as she rubbed her stomach.
