Two people who have suffered for love. Two people who are hurting and need to be healed. One night, they find each other at a bar. Both drowning in the alcohol thinking it's the medicine. One thing leads to another. One word, desire! That night was...
Stacey I didn't say anything. He came closer and gave me a big hug.
I hugged him back on the edge of tears.
Elijah : I'm so sorry... Stacey : It's not your fault... Elijah : I don't want to lose you... Stacey : ... Elijah : Please don't let this get in between us... Stacey : Elijah, I can't do this. I know I'm not going to take it.
Stacey I pulled away from him and wiped away my tears.
Stacey : You know how I get... Elijah : I'm not going to get back together with her. I'm simply going to help her because it's also my child. Stacey : And I don't want to stand in the way. A child needs a lot of time and attention. Elijah : Babe, I can manage. I'll make time for you both. Don't think I'm going to forget about you... Stacey : .... Elijah : Stacey please don't- Stacey : I grew up with both my parents. That's why I had a happy childhood. Elijah : She's going to grow up with both parents. Just not having them together as a couple. Stacey : It's a girl? Elijah : Yes... Stacey .: You wanted a girl. Elijah : ... Stacey : It's not going to work Elijah. Elijah : Stacey please... Stacey : I'm sorry but I can't....
Stacey And here we go again. I turned around the moment I felt the tears coming out.
Stacey : You don't get it... Elijah : Then explain it to me so I can understand you. Stacey : ......I wanted to be the mother of your children. I wanted to be the one and only.
Elijah What she said was the sweetest thing but it hurts because it's something that can't come true anymore....
Elijah : Maybe we can't make that happen but you're my only and only love Stacey. Stacey : Call me selfish but I want you to myself. Clearly I can't ask you to do that because it's a kid we're talking about. Elijah : .... Stacey : You were all mine these past five months. I don't do well with change and you know that... Elijah : We can get through this. I know we can. Stacey : No......I don't have the strength to get involved in such situation. Elijah : Stacey- Stacey : No!
Stacey I turned around and wiped away my tears once again.
Stacey : I'm only going to get hurt more! I'm going to say and do things I'm going to regret! It's going to hurt us both. Trust me! Elijah : You need time to accept and analyze the change. Don't make a decision right now. Stacey : I was thinking throughout the entire night. I've made my decision and I'm not going to change it. Elijah : .... Stacey : I'm sorry..... Elijah : Don't say that.
Stacey He came closer to try to cup my face but i backed away.
Stacey : Elijah no......please don't make this harder than it has to be... Elijah : Are we really going to end it? Just like that? After five months of amazing memories together?.... Stacey : Thank you.......thank you for coming up to me that night at the club. The moment my life changed. You taught me so many things. Thank you for making me happy throughout the time we were together. I love you so much but unfortunately I don't have the strength to go on with this....Not like this....
Stacey I walked to the door and opened the door giving him the signal to leave.
He turned around and walked towards the door. He stopped before walking out.
Elijah : It hurts to see you gave up so easily. Stacey : Understand me!! Elijah : No you understand me!! You're not the only one who's hurting here! I understand your pain! All I'm asking from you is patience! Patience clearly you don't have. -walks away-
Stacey I slammed the door and sat on the floor as I completely broke down.
Maybe I'm being selfish but I don't know how to control me feelings! I don't do well with change. I don't know how to react correctly!
Stacey I didn't stand up. I opened the door from the floor. She walked in confused.
Arely : Why are you on the floor? Troy : Stacey crying... Arely : What happened?
Stacey She sat on the floor next to me and wrapped her arm around me laying my head on her shoulder.
Troy sat next to me opposite side from Arely. He hugged my side. I couldn't help but laugh a little in between my crying.
Stacey : Turns out Elijah's ex girlfriend broke up with him while she was pregnant but she didn't tell him... Arely : And now he knows. Stacey : Mhm Arely : Aw I'm sorry... Stacey : I broke up with him... Arely : How did he react? Stacey : He didn't want to... Arely : It's logical.....he loves you. Stacey : ....Did I do the right thing? Arely : Let's see.......it's not his fault. It's not her fault either. This is something that just.......happened. Are you really going to let that get in between you two? Stacey : It's not that easy Arely. Arely : I know but......he loves you and you love him. I just don't think it's fair for you two to be apart when there's so much love to give. Stacey : But I know I won't be able to see him with a child from another woman. It hurts you know....? Arely : I know....

Elijah Stacey?
Elijah : -opens door- What are you doing here? Lizbeth : I want to talk to you. Elijah : ... Lizbeth : Please... Elijah : Fine. Lizbeth : -walks in- I want to explain everything. Elijah : ... Lizbeth : I didn't tell Stacey because I wanted her to get back together with her boyfriend thinking it would give me a chance with you. Clearly I was wrong. Elijah : It was wrong of you to keep quiet what you shouldn't have. Lizbeth : I know I'm sorry... Elijah : It's not me who you should apologize to. It's Stacy. Lizbeth : Right.......I thought you'd be with her. Elijah : We broke up. Lizbeth : Oh.......I'm sorry to hear that.
Lizbeth Mission accomplished.... Thank you Rebecca.
