Unexpected Love

Chapter 25

Ann-Kathrin's P. O. V.

Mario has been gone for a few days. He's somewhere to play a couple matches. I hate to say it, but I wasn't really paying attention when he was talking to me. Beckham was fussy that day and I was so stressed out.

Things have been good though. I just miss having alone time with Mario. Now that we have a baby and he has football, I feel like we're never together anymore.

My family and Mario's family have been so great though. Today, my mom, sister and I are going out to lunch with Mario's mom.

We get Beckham ready then we all drive to the restaurant. We go inside and sit down. Mario's mom coos at Beckham, taking him into her arms.

I laugh and look over the menu, deciding on what I want to eat.

Mario's mom says, "Have you heard from Mario?"

I shake my head, "Actually no. Not in like 2 days. "

My mom raises her brows, "The father of your baby hasn't called to make sure you guys are doing okay?"

I shake my head, "No, but I'm sure there's a logical explanation. "

That when Anna points to the tv on the wall of the restaurant, "Ann-Kathrin. "

I look up and freeze. On the tv is E! News and there's a picture of Mario. With another girl.

There's a couple pictures. One of him and the girl holding hands, one of them laughing together and one of him looking at me the way he use to look at me.

I look at everyone in shock. I clear my
Throat and put Beckham in the carrier. I stand up and give everyone a weak smile, "Beckham probably needs a nap so I'm going to head home. "

I walk out before anyone can say anything, driving back to my parents.

I put Beckham down then lay in bed. My phone rings. It's Mario.

I answer, "Hi"

"Hey baby. How are you doing?"

I can hear the hesitation and worry in his voice.

I bite my lip and say, "You saw the story about you, didn't you?"

Mario sighs, "Listen, baby-"

I cut him off, "Do you even have football matches this week?"

Mario quickly replies, "Yes!"

I bite my lip to stop from crying, "Who is she?"

"I met her from one of the guys on the club. We went to a night club and I was introduced. Ann, you have to understand. I've been so stressed out. Taking care of you, Beckham and having football. "

I snort, "So, to help you out, you go and shag girls? Tell me Mario, are there more?"

I'm met with silence on the other end of the phone.

I laugh sarcastically, "You've got to be kidding me. Well, Mario, stay a little longer. Shag a few more girls. And when you get back, I will be completely moved out. Don't worry. Have fun. Tell the girl you're fiancé says hi! And by the way, no way am I marrying you. I'll make the calls to cancel things. Have a nice life. "

I hang up before he can respond. I throw my phone against the wall and start crying. I don't remember falling asleep. But I guess I do while I'm crying.
