5:45pm
"Location please" Jade said over the phone, holding the steering with one hand and the other hand pressing the phone on the left ear.
"Already there babe"
"Perfect. You'll see me soon"
"He's already there waiting"
"Great, I'll be there. Is the area clear?"
"Yeah. Nothing's different"
"Okay. Help me hang up"
Beep. Dess hung up
** ** **
Jade dragged up the hand brake as she made out of the car. She scanned the whole area and found everywhere cozy. She searched round to find Dess but was out of sight.
She looked passed the transparent glass and found him seated already staring at her.
She opened the door to the restaurant and walked up slowly toward him. All these while, his gaze never left her.
She sat opposite him on a table and ordered a bottle of cocktail.
"Hey" he finally said after a long time of silence
"If we're calling this a meeting, it better be so. Get down on it Buston I have no time to Waste"
"Right. About our situation..." He suddenly was out of words.
All these while, she kept her gaze right into his eyes
"First off. You look stunning. I can't help but say Jade... And I'm sorry we turned out this way, I'm sorry things got to this point. But we can work it out...
"Cocktail order" the waiter said interrupting the convo
"Please drop" she turned to him and smiled. "Please continue"
"Yeah. So as I said we can solve this together. Let's get married, we would adopt kids and no one will know. Even if they ask, my mum or yours we'll say we rather want it that way" he said smilling sheepishly
"You think this is a joke? You expect me to keep this from my mum all my life? You think the trauma of knowing I can't give birth is a easy thing? I fucking can't bear children all my life!" She yelled as tears dropped down freely. The whole restaurant turned and looked at her table as she was already in tears. Buston was short of words. He never took anything serious and seeing her cry in front of him was what struck him most. She has never did. He knew her to be strong and harsh. But what was before him was a complete soft woman.
"I can't have children Buston, ever" she sobbed not minding the crowd.
He just kept mute staring at her as she sobbed into her palms.
He knew he didn't love her. Not a bit. Even while making out with her. Being friends with benefits, he pretended he liked her because she was extremely attractive. His friends tried having her during their group's internship in a firm they all interned where he met her. And surprisingly, he was the only person she wanted to talk to.
They started going out on events and parties, Jade started having a thing for him but all what he enjoyed wasn't the emotions attached to it. She started making moves but he kept seeing and blocking them.
Then she had the first pregnancy. "Abort it he said" and she did
Then the second "abort it. We aren't ready for a baby yet. After we get married. Or do you want to stop your career now?" She thought about it and did so...
And then just last month was the seventh one. The doctor said she might not make it. But she did. Then it came with a consequence "your womb is damaged" he told them.
Then that was it. He stopped calling her nor picking up. She tried several times to get in touch but no avail. She didn't know his family at all, never met them. And it's the last week of internship. She's about to return home and be called to bar. How was she going to tell her mum. Is this the secret she was going to carry all her life?
Both came from a rich family but certainly, her mum would want a grand child. She would also want to know how her baby would look like...
They've been seated there for minutes with her still sobbing. Not minding the crowd, he stood up and went over, took her hand in his and dragged her up. Even if he didn't feel anything for her, he wasn't so evil to see and allow someone suffer because of him.
Taking her by the waist, he took the door out and into his car. He drove off. To his apartment...
