Broken

CHAPTER 10

It's been a week since Cole was robbed.

I was hopping things would change after we had that great conversation a week ago, he only slept in that night and was back to his routine I can't
complain I'm really getting used to it.

Cole knew how to treat me right,I remember those times that he always came home with a bunch of lilies my favorite flowers.

He is running a flower company but nevertheless I just found it special.Though I hadn't learned to appreciate them fully till he stopped bringing home the flowers that's when I got pregnant.

It's eight in the morning and I don't plan on waking up until later in the day.

I miss our morning cuddles and make out sessions. I was so used to it and was kinda addicted to it.

What a beautiful way it was to start a day with multiple squirts and several orgasms.

I cross my legs and squeeze my thighs together at the thought of that. I'm feeling aroused.

I'm horny.

I better get back to sleep, the bed is too big for me and I keep on tossing and turning till my phone's ringtone goes on .

I pull the duvet over my head to ignore the call but the caller seems to be persistent ,I stretch my hand from under the duvet to end the call but I end up receiving it and putting it on speaker .

"Kandy are there?"

It's my mother's voice and I immediately become alert and place it on my ear after switching off
the speaker.

"Good morning Mom?"

"Kandy can you come over I need you,"she pleads.

She seems a little bit shaken and her voice is cracking up.

"Is everything okay?" i ask concerned.

"We can't talk on the phone can you come over I know in your situation...."

"I'm on my way ,"I cut her short.

My mother is the strongest person I know and she never asks for help unless she badly wants it.

she has been battling depression and anxiety for years now and I know she needs me I need to go
see her.

I make way to the bathroom.

I take a warm shower couldn't wait for it to get hot to my liking I don't bother washing my hair I think my mother's call was more of an emergency.

I come out of the bathroom with a towel tied around my body, I pick my phone to ask for an Uber but I think it won't be fast enough.

I dial coles number and his phone is switched off.

I call Benny and he picks on the first ring.

"Hello there pregnant Mrs?" he says jokingly.

"Benny I need a favour?" I get straight to the point, the jokes can wait.

"Yes anything!" he says in a staid manner.

"I know you are busy at work so can I borrow one of your drivers to my mom's place it's urgent?"

"Right away!" he says

"Thank you so much." I say and hung up

I put on my Maxi blue dress and I tie my hair into a messy bun.I head to the kitchen pour myself some juice and drink it with some cookies as I wait for the Benny's driver.

I need the energy, you can't give what you don't have and i need alot of energy while handling my mother needs alot of support.

The car is here as I can here a car honking, Deth hasn't woken up yet she is been sleeping alot lately but I didn't bother to ask the more she sleeps means more peace for myself.

I jolt down a note for her stating that I will be heading to my mother's place and I hurriedly head to the car.

Benny is standing in front of his maseratti

"You came!" I say as I hug him

"Yeah I did I know you never ask for favors unless you need one badly."

"I asked for your driver?"

"I know you not only need a ride but a friend too So what's up?"

"Can I feel you in while on our way it's mom she needs me."

"Of course," he says as he opens the door for me helps me with seat belt and runs to his side.

I fill him In on mom's condition and he keeps on nodding every now and then.

It is a two hour drive from my house, I get car sick so fast that I hate traveling even a one hour drive is hectic for me.

Benny reaches out to his console and pulls out a blue tablet.

"Take this it will help with the car sick." he says as he hands me over the water bottle.

"Thank you so much." he knows me too well.

My mom lives in a very rural part of our state, that's not where I was born or grew up, she only relocated here when she retired as a teacher.

Her dream was always to live on the country side and as soon she was done with teaching a job that she loved with passion she decided it was to time to get a house in the rurals.

She is in her early fifties and she took an early retirement because of her condition, the depression really took a toll on her.

She is no longer the happy church going woman, she has now closed down on herself and she is always indoors.

My mom and dad are divorced and the divorce robbed her of her normal life, their relationship was toxic on and off yes but very toxic till dad decided to file for a divorce after cheating on mom a million times.

I was seventeen when Granny took custody of me after mom was declared unstable.

Loosing my dad and I at the same time really affected her.She has the purest form of love for my dad till now, as much as mom tried to keep it together she couldn't and granny took it as an opportunity to win me for her lonely soul.

I love my mom so much and she tried to keep her sanity it wasn't enoght to retain custody and that's why I'm gonna give the baby I'm carrying the best no matter what! A complete family no matter what because the trauma that comes with a broken family ain't easy to deal with.

"I'm feeling sleepy."I groan after a while.

He inclines the seat so that I'm comfortable and the next few minutes I'm sound asleep

"Kandy we are here." I hear someone whispering my ears.

I almost jump out of Benny's arms when I realize he is carrying me bridal style and we are
standing infront of our house.

"Benny put me down."

"Nope" he says grinning.

"Benny my mother will be out here any minute now" I say as we hear footsteps.

"No I won't".

I feel like smacking him on the head but I can't with the position I'm in.

The door handle is turned and that's when he puts me down and by the time my mom is opening the door we look so uncomposed and startled like we were doing something wrong as I try to pull down my dress down uncomfortably.

she raises an eyebrow and I wonder what she is thinking.

I'm gonna kill someone! I swear!
