Amaya’s POV….
As much as I hate to admit it, I knew that I needed him, the moment he left my house yesterday, my whole life was on fire, I had to think about it a lot before I called his number, as much as I hated it, as much as I hate the fact that he is the only one that I can help me because I don’t have much money; I spent most of my money on this stupid wedding because I wanted to do something good for Harry, even thought we would be getting married the court; I had organized something romantic, I had completely forgotten about that until two hours ago, when I got a call from the people that injured, all the money that I was used was gone and I had also organized something else for him, I can’t even cancel it and it’s due in four days.
I abated mauled for wanting to do something good for him, I had thought since he was always good to me, I would end up the slanting hood of him and this is something I didn’t like about myself; whenever I like someone or want to be with them; I end up doing a whole out for them, I end up going the way out for them, I don’t have a care for the world because I want them to be happy, I guess I felt the same way for Harry and I hated it, he is in his apartment happy with his pregnant girlfriend and here I am, in a car when rain is falling so much.
I had gotten to Adam’s office to find him and he was not there, the guard was sweet enough to help me with his home address and I knew I had to see him, I needed to know that we were on the same page and I know that’s he wanted me to be his wife, I have some field to it, all I wanted is to meet him.
I could not wait until tomorrow, I had felt like the apartment wouldn’t be mine if I had to wait till tomorrow and I would end up losing my job and I may end up being on the streets, I can’t imagine that happening to me, I would not be able to honor the invitation, they would have me killed if I don’t come because I have nowhere to hide and they always know where I am, they are keeping an eye on me. I knew have to set my priorities, I needed to make sure my life got better and I needed to make sure that I didn’t make any mistakes anymore.
I have to focus on myself and my fixture and I have had done with any man, I don’t want to fall in love, I don’t want to come close to anyone and I didn’t want the idea of anyone coming too close either, whatever is going to happen between Adam and I is hoping to be strictly professional and it’s all going to be for the sake of my money, for my new life and I know I would be able to build a new life with all he is willing to offer and I would be able to hide.
I just have some rules, and I had hoped he would agree to it.
I was pulled out of my thoughts when the car came to a halt, and a breath escaped my lips when I realized that the rain had become heavier and I could glance at Adam’s home, it was large and I had hoped that he would be home; or else I have no idea where to find him, I have no idea what I am going to do if I can’t find him till tomorrow, I had just hoped he would pick up the Goddamn call, I had looked he would check his voicemails and ring me back or at least send me a message, I was starting to get upset.
“Are you getting out?.” The cab driver asked, his voice pulled me out of my thoughts and a breath escaped my lips, the heat of the car was keeping me warm and I was starting to feel better, a breath escaped my lips and I knew that the meter was running and I didn’t have much money, and it’s raining which meant I have to pay double as twice; I know that I can’t afford that at the moment.
“Sorry,” I whispered, I glanced at the rain one last time before I handed him over his phone, I placed my phone inside my purse, I didn’t want it to get spoiled and I had little to nothing to do I had to be careful.
I headed out of the car and I felt a wave of rain wash over me, a breath escaped my lips when I headed toward the door, I laid o ok on on it, there was no way he could hear me knock under this rain and it was getting louder at the moment and I knew that I had to pound louder.
I felt like a loser; I felt like a fool and I felt like I had little to nothing, I was angry at myself and I was annoyed and I knew that life would have been better if I didn’t meet Harry if I stayed at my old apartment; even if I would lose my job or if I don’t have any money at all, I knew that I would not be on the streets, I would know that I would be fine and I have a roof under my head, and I know that I would be fine and I know that things would have been better for me.
I was worried and scared that this deal with Adam may end up ruining my life, I was scared that I would not be able to handle it and I was scared that this may ruin my plans, I knew that everything I had to do, I have to be smart, I have to calculate my moves and I have to have an idea of what I am doing, I messed up when I was with Harry; I was thinking with my heart.
I have to remember what Dad always tells me to do, never use my heart to think; you will end up making mistakes, always make use of your mind princess, because your mind will never deceive you, he has always been right about things, as much as I hate to admit it, I wish I had listened of him and this would have been different.
I hooked off the thought and I started to knock over and over again, the sounds of thunder filled my ears and I rested on the former of the porch, my eyes filled with tears and my hands were wet and cold, there was no way he would hear me, I could yell all days and scream all day and he winds hear a thing, the thunder is enough to make him not hear anything.
I knew that I had to find another way, maybe I should stay here, he was bound to come home some time and I knew that I couldn’t walk under this rain, I knew that there was no way I would be able to find a cab until I walk toward the entrance of the neighborhood which is a little too far, either way, I knew that I had to stay here; I beg to wait, I have to find him and I have to speak to him.
I watched as the rain fell against the floor, it was cold and wet, the soft breeze danced across my skin and I knew that I was going to be sick after today, I could feel it, and my mind wandered off to Adam, I have heard a few things about him, maybe a little form Harry, Harry did not like to talk about work with me evacuee he felt like I would not understand any of this and I didn’t ask much about his work, and I have seen a lot of magazine covers with his whole family, I have never really bothered about him maybe it’s because I didn’t even care and Harry did not like to discuss business rival.
I knew he didn’t like Adam, the moment he knew that I was going to strike a deal with the company, he didn’t want me to, he told me a few times and I ended up lying that I would not be a part of the deal, sometimes last week I had made up my mind that I am not going to be able to work with Adam and I would have gone ahead with the plan if I married Harry.
I would have been stupid to lose my job, be in an apartment that is not mine, and be married to a loser, maybe it was good he cheated.
I was pulled out of my thoughts when the door opened and I stood up.
Adam.
