I dry myself before stepping out of the bathroom. I get my blue Pajama and put them on. Getting into bed, Theo looking at me worriedly.
"Baby, are you mad at me?" He asks and shakes my head no.
"Goodnight," I mutter before looking away from him.
My eyes lids get heavy and I finally fall asleep.
The next day I came up alone in bed. I let out a sigh, walking to the bathroom to do my business and flushing the toilet. After doing my normal routine I make myself breakfast.
Having omelet and mango juice I go back upstairs and into the bathroom. I brush my teeth. Walking into the closet, I pick out my black pencil dress with black slides.
I don't bother putting on make-up. I tie my locks in the back. Putting on my stud earrings I walk out with only my purse and phone.
I grab the keys to my Audi and lock the place.
I take the elevator to the garage. Getting into my new car I drive off to the cemetery but first stopping at my favorite flower shop. Fifteen minutes later I arrive, parking the car I walk to my family's grave.
"Mummy, Papa, Meredith..." I trail off kneeling unable to even talk.
It has been seven years since they passed away, every year I visit them twice a month. I have not been here in the last two months.
"Dad, mum, Meredith I'm sorry. I miss you all." I say dusting the cement and placing the roses on top. My dad used to get my mother black roses every day when he came home, they were my mother's favorite.
"I have not seen you off-late. I almost thought you gave up coming or you moved." I hear a familiar voice behind me and I smile.
"Lenny!" I stand up rushing to hug him.
I met Lenny six years ago, we used to bump into each other every time he came to visit his late family that's how we became good friends.
"I'm sorry I haven't come back to check up on you," I say to Lenny making him nod.
"I missed you, Lee," Lenny confesses pulling me into a hug making my eyes water.
"I missed you too," I assert pulling away from him.
"Well, tell me how you have been." He says intertwining my arms in his.
"Let's get to Eddies. I will tell you everything." I lead Lenny to my car.
"Nice ride." He comments before getting in.
I spot a guy taking pictures of us and I roll my eyes. Paparazzi. They have been following me around ever since the night at the art gala. Theo had assured me they would get bored with me and move to someone else but that has not been the case.
I pull away and proceed to the local dinner, Eddies which happened to be our favorite burger joint.
We get in and instantly get a table. A middle-aged lady, Winnie comes by the table to take our orders. I couldn't help but notice how Lenny stared at her, this has always been the case. He always looks but never does anything about it.
"Hello, I have to say I have not seen you two here in a long time. Lenny, I see you looking great as usual. On the other hand, Kaylee you rocking." She says making Lenny chuckle.
"Always a charmer my lady." Lenny teases making Winnie blush.
"So, the usual?" He inquires and I nod.
"Coming right up."
"Thank you," Lenny says.
We continue talking about what we were missing out on each other. Winnie gets our food and excuses herself.
Finishing our food we walk to the park. Our favorite spot.
"Maybe he isn't good with expressing his feelings. If he didn't care for you he would never get you out of that shit hole you were living in." Lenny says and I chuckle at his choice of words.
"Maybe you are right..." I tell him.
"Go talk to him. Go on." He tells me.
"Now?" I ask not wanting to leave Lenny by himself.
"Yes. We'll meet the next time you come to visit them." He tells me and I nod.
I hug him goodbye before walking to my car and taking off. I punch Crawford Enterprises address into my GPS and in fifteen minutes I pull up at their building.
I park my car, grabbing the phone I get out locking it. I run up the flight of stairs and into the glass doors. I nod at the security guy and he gives me a small smile. I go directly into his private elevator raking out the card he gave me.
Two minutes later I walk onto his floor and greet his assistant who gives me a wry smile.
I shake off the feeling and walk into Theo's office.
What the fuck?
"Theo?" I say my voice trembling.
Theo pushes Isabella away from him. He looks at me then back to Isabella.
"Babe, what are you doing here?" He asks looking at me.
"Coming to see you," I respond closing the door and walking over to where they are.
"Isabella, please excuse us," Theo says his voice pleading. Ooh wow.
"No Isabella, stay," I say sitting down and making myself comfortable.
"Alright. So should we tell her together?" Isabella asks to smirk.
"No! Don't you dare," Theo shouts.
"Cool down Theo. Isabella, what are you talking about?" I ask.
She laughs.
"I a..." Isabella starts but Theo cuts her off.
"You are not telling her anything. Shut up, Isabella..." Theo says running his hands through his hair.
She is pregnant. Ooh god!
"Is it true?" I ask Theo whose head shoots up.
The look on his face tells me it is.
"Yes, it is whore. Now leave." Isabella confirms.
"What did you call me?" I ask her standing up.
"Whore." She repeats and I take a step towards her.
"Don't tell me you haven't given him that pussy to him. Let me guess, you initiated it. He was with me yesterday and the d..." She says and I turn to look at Theo.
"Isabella stop," Theo begs.
"No, I am not going to stop. You love me and not this slut you have in your house!" She shouts.
Having heard enough, I take my leave. He calls after me and I ignore him walking out and getting into the elevator.
Getting off, I go through the glass doors and down the stairs. Getting into the car I drive to Theo's penthouse. I get there and throw my belongings in my suitcases. I get a cab and give him Hazel's address.
Fifteen minutes later he pulls up at Hazel's apartment. I knock on her door and Colin answers it half-naked. I didn't have to say anything, he pulls me into a hug. Pulling away as Hazel comes into view and Colin takes my bags to the guest room leaving me and Hazel alone.
"What happened Kay?" She asks as Colin walks back into the room with a shirt on this time.
"Isabella is pregnant with his child and he has been sleeping with her," I say staring into space refusing to cry.
"Fuck! I am going to kill him!" Colin says running his hands through his hair.
"No. Don't!" I plead.
"Tell me one good reason why I shouldn't!" He demands.
"I love him," I confess.
"Ooh," Colin mutters.
I love him.

Stay safe😊
