Cross your heart

Christina’s POV~


Well, well, well… Kevin actually came back. What a nice surprise. He was sitting down on the sofa and he looked distracted by something. Some thoughts ran through his head while he ‘watched’ the TV. “Hi Kev…” I smiled. He just muttered a ‘hey’ without looking at me. “Can we please talk?” I asked. “I’m sorry about lying to you for this child. I am really sorry. Am I forgiven?” He let out a heavy sigh and turned the TV off then setting his eyes on mine. “Pack your stuff because you’re leaving. Tonight. Sign these divorce papers and go. I don’t wanna see you again,” said Kevin, harshly and it hurt me. “W-What?” “JUST DO IT!” he yelled. That made my heart fall down to my pants.

No hesitation made, I signed the papers, went upstairs and quickly packed what I needed. “Here, take this money and this credit card,” Kevin said, handing them over. “It’s yours. The least I can do so you won’t die in the streets.” That’s not nice…

I thought I could give him one last hug, but he didn’t let me. He didn’t even LOOK at me. Like I’m a stranger. Am I stranger?


Tears sneaked up to my eyes and tried to leave them, but no. I won’t be that weak again. Where could I go now?

Yes. I know where to go. Yup, it seems like I’ll have to go there… I got in the cab and told the driver my destination. Let’s just hope I’ll be able to stay there.


~2 hours later~


“Hello? Anybody here?” I asked as I entered the big ranch. What else do I have left? My grandma’s sister lives here as a housekeeper and I guess she can help me. “Christina? It’s you! My dear Christina!” she said, coming downstairs to me. She gave me a big hug that lasted really long. “Hi there Marie. I need a favor to ask…” “Sure, what is it pumpkin?”

She always calls me PUMPKIN!!!


“Can I please stay here? And please, don’t call me Christina. Here, I’m Stacey. People can’t know who I really am… and I’m pregnant… long story…” I mumbled the last part. “I… guess you can stay here for a while. Uh… about that pregnancy thing… I won’t bug in if you don’t want to tell me.”

Right after she finished, some boy that looked about 18 or 19 years old, came downstairs quite happy. “MARIE! I need your-oh, hello there!” he said, smiling at me. “H-Hi…”
“David, this is Ch-” “It’s Stacey,” I corrected Marie. What if this guy knows Andy? I really don’t want to see him too. “David.” “Well, now that you know each other,” Marie said. “Davie, can you show her around?”

“Sure, no problems. Come on Stacey.” He picked my hand and led me out to the yard. There were so many hard workers. I can’t imagine how they’re feeling. “So, what brings you here?” David asked me. What am I going to say? Oh damn… “I… I just came here to stay for a few months… I think 9 months will be ok.” Let’s hope he doesn’t understand what I mean with this. “You’re pregnant, aren’t you?” he asked directly after a sigh. I nodded and tried not to make any eye contact with him. He gave me a hug and my head got only ‘till his shoulders. He is tall. I’m small and he’s tall. You know how big of a difference is it when two different sized people stand together? “Where’s the father?”



I made a few ‘ums’ and ‘uhs’ before answering the damn easy question. “He doesn’t believe it’s his and he doesn’t care…” Those words I said, hurt me so much. I don’t even know if it’s true. Does Andy really not care about this? “Hey… don’t sob into my shirt… it’s new,” he smiled and that made me giggle too. “I can show you your room if you want.” Aw, he is just so sweet. “Sure… I wouldn’t mind that…”

“And there is a girl that will stay in the same room as you,” he added. I wonder who could it be.


He lead me upstairs and we entered a small room with two beds. Probably the other girl already made herself home. “Davie! Oh, who is this?” the short haired blonde girl said. “Stacey, this is Juliet. Juliet, this is Stacey. Have fun,” David said and left the room.


“Well, you know my name, I know yours. What brings you here?” Juliet asked. “I… uh… long story…” She turned around and took something out of her bag, and gave a little piece of paper to me. “You can always call me if you wanna talk. I’m kinda leaving today, so I hope you enjoy the whole room for yourself,” she smiled.

I returned the smile and put the paper in my pocket. These are going to be the longest 9 months of my life…

Notes

Hey! I'M BAAAAAAAACK!

Sorry for being off for so long >.< it felt like decades to me. I had no inspiration, so much drama was going on in my life, and Thursday kinda made my life better and greater and all. If ya wanna know what happened, I'm gonna link the place where I wrote what happened, in chapter 29. Yeah, I'm updating today only this story.

So, what do you think will happen with Christina, or as we say, Stacey?
Why did she change her name?
