Baby Daddy For Hire

"Hey Baby! What's up?" I asked luke with a wide smile plastered all over my face. Luke is a long time boyfriend of mine...we've been together dating since junior highschool. we attended prom together... celebrated each others birthdays always and now we are in our senior year graduating. Luke and I practically grew up with each other since our dads are also friends,they run a business together back then that's why luke and I became close. "Took you long enough," he said coldly as I sat down in front of him at the coffee shop. My smile instantly fade as I look at him looking so cold and serious. "What's the matter? Why'd you call me here?" I ask feeling nervous. He look so serious that I couldn't read his mood right now and that makes me feel uneasy. "Listen Isabelle..." Napalunok akong bigla sa sinabi niya.... It's the first time I heard him say my name. He used to call me issa or baby but now he called me by my full name which is unusual. "Is there a problem? Come on you can tell me..." I said trying to hide the tense I felt between us. "I ask you to come here because I wanted us to take a break," he said while looking at me straight in the eye. "Take a break? You mean go on a vacation?" I ask pretending to not know what he meant. I know exactly what he meant because I've notice the changes on how he treated me recently...he started to get cold towards me,avoiding my calls and not talking to me for days. "No issa... I meant I wanna break up with you... End our relationship!" he exclaimed "Break up? But why so sudden? Did I do something wrong?" I ask trying to stop my tears from falling down. "Because I don't think I love you anymore..." "Why? Is it something I did? Something I said? I'm sorry... Just please let's fix this!" I pleaded "I'm tired of you... Thats why I asked jessica out, I mean jessica and I have been dating for months now and I think I'm inlove with her," I was taken a back with what he said. I didn't expect him to say that,I know that jessica and him are close friends but I didn't think that they would cheat on me. "You were cheating on me?" I ask with the hint of pain in my voice. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to hurt you but just look at you... jessica look so much better than you! And you're also clingy and boring...always talking about school stuff when we are together! I'm sorry I just can't be with you anymore!" "Luke please...don't leave me! I will change my look...I won't talk school stuff anymore...just please..." I cried begging him to take me back. I know that I didn't look like jessica,he's right...jessica is so pretty,she's the cheer leader and she's very popular and I know that I can't compete with her. "I'm sorry Issa... I just want to enjoy my life and I can't do that with someone so boring like you,"that hurts, like a knife stuck in my chest! With that he left me there shocked and confused. I started to walk home even though I have driver assigned by my dad to drive me from home and school. My tears started running down my cheeks... Feeling heartbroken, I just walk and walk and walk....until I later arrived at home and immediately heard my dad crying and begging my mom. "Please honey don't leave! I promise I will do better! Just Don't leave us..." My dad cried begging my mom not to leave but my mom seems to have made up her mind already. "Mom where are you going?!" I asked.. My mom look at me coldly as if I am not her daughter. "I'm leaving! I Can't take it anymore! I can't be with your dad while he struggles with his company.. I know he will eventually declare bankruptcy and I cannot live being poor! I deserve so much more.... I deserve to be with someone who can fulfil my needs!" Mom shouted as she shove me and walk pass by me. "What about me? What about Dad?" I ask hoping that she would change her mind but she just look at us without even a hint of guilt in her eyes. She turned around leaving us, as she drove away by her car. My father and I beg her not to leave but our plea fell on a deaf ear. I wanted to go after her... I wanted to stop her... I wanted to run and make her come back... But My knees weakened that I drop to the ground trying to process what just happened. Did my boyfriend and my mom just left me? Did the two most important people in my life just left me? Why? Am I that boring to be with? Am I so annoying to be around? Am I not important enough to them? How can they leave me like that? Sitting there on the ground feeling helpless beside my dad made me feel so alone. My tears wouldn't stop pouring down my face... I felt so weak... I was so confused... So Shocked... So hurt... So heartbroken! For days I prayed so hard hoping that they will come back to me... I wished that luke will realize that I'm the one he truly loves and he's just confused... I wished that my mom would realize that we are her family and that she loved us more than money... I prayed to have a whole family again... I wish that I could see my dad smiling again... I prayed that the pain would just go away... I prayed and prayed.... So hard every night.... But I think no one is really listening... "Why won't you answer my prayers?!!" I shouted in my room asking God why aren't he answering me. I watched my father sobs every night... My heart felt like someone stabbed it with thousand of knives... Seeing dad like that broke me... I can't even explain how painful it is to watch him fell apart... that day I realized that there's no one who could help me and that they're not coming back anymore and that same day I promised my self that I won't go through this pain again... I wont let someone hurt me again like this! Never again!
