Chapter 59
New drama?
Chris’ POV:
The fight was an impressive one. I had always had faith in Megan for being up to the task. However, it has been a long day, and I need to rest.
“What the hell happened here?” I asked myself as I let the door opened.
It seemed like someone was broke into the house.
“Cling!” I heard a sound from the kitchen, and I rushed to see what was going on there.
I tiptoed gently into the kitchen when I caught sight of a woman, clad in my robe.
“What effrontery!” I concluded rushing at her in anger grabbing a pan in my hands to defend myself.
“Stop!” I felt someone grab my waist from behind as breathe heavily.
“Where you going to hit her?” Hailey was standing face to face with me after so many years.
“You!” I exclaimed as anger built up in me at once.
“What are you doing here? And how were you able to get in here? Do you know that I can sue you for trespassing?” I asked her continuously as she looked on, not bothered by all I had to say.
“Shh!” Hailey said as she tried to put her finger over my mouth in a romantic way.
“Don’t you touch me.” I screamed at her.
“You are talking too much!” Hailey said as she took my hands.
“I know that you own this apartment, but I still have a spare key, remember?” Hailey said as she showcased the key.
“Okay, it is great that you are back to give it back to me, so hand it over now.” I stretched forth my hands to take it away from her, but I guessed she was here to play games with me.
“Oh, Chris! Why are you so fast about it?” She asked me and drew closer to me.
“Chris, I have missed you a lot and I am back to have you, but it feels that you moved on too quickly.” Hailey said as she whispered romantically into my ears.
“Leave me alone and get out of my house! Now!” I yelled at her.
“And get that dummy out of my kitchen!” Seeing the dummy clad on my robe only made me madder than I could imagine.
“So, you want me out of your house all because of her?” Hailey asked me angrily.
“Chris, do not do that to me, I have made my wrongs, and I am sorry for that.” She pleaded and grabbed me.
“No- no! Leave Hailey!” I told her as o tried to let go off her.
“You hate me so much, Chris!” Hailey said and busted into tears.
“Hailey, I understand you are back and wanting to talk, but I need you to understand that my anger and hurt aren’t just going to disappear. Your actions caused me so much pain.” I explained to her.
“I have had to work hard to move on. I am not willing to just forget what happened and go back to the way things were. If you want to make amends, that’s one thing, but I need time and space to process my emotions. And right now, I’m with someone else who respects me and makes me happy. I deserve that, and I won’t compromise on my own well-being.”
“Talk?” Hailey asked me.
“I am not here to talk to you; I only want you back and do not even care about your anger.” Hailey fired back in tears.
“Chris, I know I hurt you, and I’m truly sorry for my mistakes.” Hailey begged.
“But I can’t help how I feel – I still love you and want to be with you, I cannot see you with that Megan woman.” She said referring to Megan.
“Do not speak of Megan in such way, she is my girlfriend… put some respect on her name.” I ordered her.
“Whatever!” Hailey rolled her eyes.
” I know I don’t deserve it, but I’m hoping you can find it in your heart to forgive me and give me another chance. I promise to work on myself and regain your trust. I can’t imagine living without you, and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make it right.” Hailey told me and grabbed me for a kiss.
“Let go!” I pushed her away.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang that left the door opened, then Megan came on out of nowhere.
Her eyes widened in surprise, but she shrugged and decided to wave it off.
“Your girlfriend is here!” Hailey bluffed.
“What a…” Hailey tried to say when Megan cut in.
“What a what?” Megan barked at her.
“You are so shameless, Hailey!” Megan said.
“Hailey, you have got some nerve showing up here after what you did to Chris!” Megan fired at Hailey who stood staring at her unmoved by whatever she was saying.
” And Chris, I thought we had something real – are you still caught up in her games?” Megan turned to me.
” You deserve so much better than someone who would cheat on you and then try to manipulate you into taking her back.” Megan said with disappointment.
“I am not going to stand here and watch this happen because I am more than disappointed.” Megan said.
” Chris, make a choice – are you with me or are you still stuck in the past with her?” Megan asked as I found myself caught up in a web.
“Whatever, I will just take my leave.” Hailey told us.
“Megan has seemed to be protective their relationship and is not afraid to stand up for herself and her partner. But let is see who wins this game.” My phone beeped with Hailey text as she left.
“Wow, you were amazing with whatever you did here!” I told her.
“And how did you find here?” I asked her again.
“It’s the bad guy’s again, they were trying to get me again, so I figured out this could be the only safe place.” She explained herself.
Hailey storms into the room and looking wretched say:
“You may not want me back, but our son does.” Hailey says as she pulls out a photo of a young boy who looks just like me.
“Son? What are you talking about, Hailey?” I asked her as she left without looking back.
