Goner

I waved goodbye to the guys as the taxi driver arrived for us.
"Where to miss?" The driver asked. I was about to say my address until Andy got inside and handed the driver a card.
"Take us there please." The driver
"I um what? Andy no!" I shouted. I quickly jumped off the car and started walking away.
" Yazmin please!" I heard Andy behind me.
"Leave me alone Andy. Whatever you are trying to do, it wont work anymore. I moved on from your pretty little," I turned to see that nobody was there. "Lies." I looked around.
"Andy?" I said.
"So you do miss me when I'm gone." I heard Andy from behind me. I screamed.
“You ass! You scared me!” He chuckled as I started walking.
“Where are you going?”
“Home. Where else?”
“Come to my house.”
“To bang?” I laughed. “Nah I’m good honey.”
“Please. I want to talk to you about the baby.”
“The baby is in the past.” I stopped my tracks. “He is now in a better place.”
“Why didn’t you contact me?”
“I tried to! But someone had changed their damn number and forgot they had a girlfriend hanging back in their hometown!” I cried.
“Yazzie please!”
“Don’t you Yazzie me! I trusted you Andy! You betrayed me and left me like I was just another girl!”
“Look! I know I failed you! I’m sorry! I went back to Cincinnati after the year. I looked for you all over. I looked for your parents, then they said that they had moved away. I knocked every single door just to find you. I asked for you and even held a picture of you, with black hair. I searched and searched until your friend told me what happened.”
“What friend?”
“Sam.” That name. I remember her. She was with me every time I wasn’t with Andy. She knew I was pregnant. She was there with me when I went to the hospital because the baby wasn’t moving. She was there when they told me he had died in my stomach.
“She said how you were so broken. I even let her beat the shit out of me because I know I hurt you after she told me what I had done. But she never told me about the baby.”
“She was correct on not telling you anything about it. I was gonna be a boy. My baby. My baby Emmet. I lost him and all because I worried about someone who didn’t even remember that i existed.”
“I thought about you every day. But I couldn’t come back because it all happened so quickly. Tour, fans, music. When Sam told me what happened, I thought you moved on. I thought you were already married. Possibly with a child. But now that i see that those haven’t happened yet, I will try again. I will try to win your heart again, no matter how long it takes. I will do it again.”
“How will you do that? Don’t you know that my heart stopped beating for anyone a long time ago?”
I started walking away again. I felt his hands on my arms and he turned me around.
“Let go of me!”
“I know i will make you love me again.”
“You know nothing about me!”
“Please just give me a second chance!” He said, in near tears. I stopped fighting.
“I won’t do that. Because I know your new girlfriend is pregnant. I know she is pregnant with your kid.”
“Juliet?”
“Well who else have you been fucking?” I said, freeing myself as he let go. He was shocked.
“I-I didn’t know that.”
“Well you wouldn’t like to make the baby grow up without a father now would you?”
I walked away, not looking back. Just like he did to me. He walked away without looking back.
