I know how it feels like and I don't want anyone to experience that kind of pain which would kill us day by day.
"He was with me because of my money, when I told him that I lost my job he broke up with me saying I was nothing but a useless penny which he has planned to get rid off earlier." She sobbed hardly burying her face between her palms.
Ohh! God!!!
"Shh... He is not for you. He is just a pain ass who doesn't know the difference between gold and copper." I tried to ease her pain but I know it won't work.
"He was acting so weird for these days even made a silly fight over small things but now I understood why he did all of these." She wiped her tears and blew her nose.
And now I get the point why she was distracted from her work sometimes.
To my surprise, she smiled at me and hugged me again. "Thank you, Riya. At least I got my job back." I was taken aback of her sudden change. She was a crying mess just a while ago and now she is acting normal pretending like nothing happened to her.
She is so confident not only in her work but life too. If I had in her shoes I would have been fallen down for a month thinking all my misery.
"What made him change his mind?" She asked knowing the reason for her termination.
"We made a deal."
"A deal?" She asked.
"Yeah, I agreed to go with him to the party."
She gave me a 'are you serious' look as masking her tear face into a frown.
"Just one day and it is not going to change anything." I assured her and gave her hand a light squeeze.
"I'm fine, Riya. You faced more than me. I wanted to be strong like you." She gave a weak smile which I returned with equal favour.
"See you tomorrow." I said and she nodded her head. She may good in pretending but I know she was a broken shell inside.
One thing is sure, her pillow will get heavy rain on tonight.

Finally, after days and days of hard work, our senior year exams were over. We were free from what we call hellhole. I was so excited to see him again and tell him the news that would change our lives forever.
We had absolutely no plans for the future, not yet at least. All this time our main focus was only on our upcoming exams, which thankfully ended. But in the end, things turned against our wish and God blessed us with a baby, and now just a little bit of patience and then a little bundle of joy will be joining with our little family.
I was seven weeks pregnant with a healthy baby. At first, I thought that I had some viral disease. Don't blame me! The dizziness and nausea made me think that way up until yesterday.
Me carrying his child inside my womb made my heart jolt with happiness. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs saying 'I am officially going to be his. We are going to welcome our new little family member!!!' Unfortunately, I was on the college campus and I didn't want to scare away the students.
I wanted to see his face. I wanted to see his expression. I wanted to laugh at him seeing him in a shocking state with mouth wide open, unable to believe if what he just heard was true or his ears were betraying his imagination.
Maybe I would shoot a video and keep it as a memory to reminisce in the future. Or maybe I would show his reaction to my little baby when he or she grows up
I wanted to pinch his cheek saying 'Yes, it is true. We're gonna have a family of our own' I wanted to enjoy all the moments: when he comes closer and embraces me in his arms tightly when he'll say he is extremely delighted to have this baby!!!
I wanted to feel his fingers caressing my cheeks as he wipes my tears with his thumb and gives me an assuring smile saying 'Everything will be alright and I'll be here for you no matter what happens'
"What if he will not be happy with the news?" My conscience asked me again. I had this question running through my mind since yesterday.
'Nope.' He was on cloud nine when Rachel, his sister, revealed her pregnancy. He discussed how he is going to take care of the baby and how he is going to spoil him.
Rachel told us yesterday after confirming the gender from the doctor that it's gonna be a boy for her.
"Don't worry sweetheart. Dad will take care of you." I said to my little peanut while rubbing my stomach lovingly. I became so attached to this baby over a night. The baby was made out of our love.
Even though I was drowning in the sea of my deep thoughts, I didn't miss watching my man walking towards the parking area whilst whistling and spinning the car keys around his forefinger. No doubt, he will make the sexiest dad ever. I grinned and adored the beauty of my husband.
He looked dashing, clad in his white T-Shirt and black Jeans. His hair was a mess as he had raked his hands through it multiple times. His face was shining with armor and he had a faint smile on his lips. He was probably thinking of me.
He expected me to be there in the parking area, just like any other day. Oops! I'm late. "Kayish!!" I called his name but it didn't reach his ears.
I started to run like a penguin towards the parking area after him, I couldn't feel my legs. To be honest I was so sore that I couldn't even walk. I stood in front of him panting heavily, It took me a fine second to calm down.
