Soul-mates

09

Time flew by. No one has seen Avelina ever since the event.

Ava was pretty much enjoying herself with her dad whom she didn't know of. They went to the cinema. They weren't out shopping an played a piano. They even ad lunch. It felt too good for Ava. She even got her first phone. Avelina never wanted Ava to have a phone while she was young. She was planning on giving her an iPad on her birthday. But she was going to monitor it as she wants Ava to focus on nothing but her studies. So she can be what she wants have a luxurious life and not degrade herself like her mother did.

Soon it was dark outside. Ava hadn't returned home. Ashley also hadn't returned home. Avelina. She was on the road. Thinking of a place to go. She was still crying at the thought of losing her daughter.

Daniel Thompson was very rich. Rich means corrupt and if she had said no she wouldn't have seen her ever again. Even if she said yes she wasn't sure if she was going to see her. She came to a stop. It was a tarven/bar/club. Not many people were there. She locked her car and got out. Right now she needs a mom someone to advise her in situations like this. But of course she didn't have one. Her mom died when she was 19. When she was pregnant

She was all alone and Ava was the reason she was living. Before she found out that she was pregnant she wanted to kill herself so she could go be with her mom.

"Can I have white tequila and a whole bottle of a martini black' she said

The bartender looked at her suspiciously

"I can pay for it" she exclaimed

"Are you sure you want a whole bottle?" He asked with concern

"Yes" she made it obvious. She took out the money and handed to him.

"If you say so" he said giving out the bottle and shots.

She began drinking up.

"What makes you drink so much?" Asked the bartender

"The thought of losing my daughter" she said

"Why would you loose her" he asked

"Well her father came. Rich man and threatened to take her away. That fucker was never part of her life. 7 years. 7 fucking years. I raised her. With a help of my friend who turned to be my sister. Now he wants her and changing her name" she complained

"Why don't you hire lawyers" he asked

"He is a rich man. The only thing that will help me is taking my daughter away from him. She doesn't even know that he is her father. All she knows is that her daddy died in war. I was only 19 when I had a child. Couldn't write my final exams because I felt pain as my body was weak. They didn't even want pregnant people. I got there by bursary as my mother died I had to figure out a way to live and carry on with my life all by myself. All it took was one night at a bar. Ruined everything. I would have my own company. A man to take care of me and a happy family but no everytime someone asks me out I need to tell them about my baby. That is 7 years old and will definitely want a big birthday party" she said

"Sorry about your mom" he said as he gulped another shot of tequila and looking drunk as fuck

"It is fine we live. The day my mom died was the day I found out that I was 4 weeks pregnant" she said

"Your phone is ringing" noticed the bartender

"It is a private number. What if it is his lawyers?" She asked

"You never know. Maybe it is someone who loves and cares about you" he said

"No one does. Besides Ashley who is probably at her boyfriend's house. I love 2 people in this whole world. Ava my child and my Ashley" she said "I have a boyfriend. He went on a business trip and before he left h proposed to me. No one know about it as though. When he comes back or if he comes back we will get out of this hellhole. Find a ace far away maybe Italy"

"Are you sure it is his lawyers. I mean it has been ringing for too long" he noticed

"If you want to answer it. Be my guest" she offered

The bartender answered it and put it on loudspeaker.

"Avelina what the fuck. We had an agreement and here I am with Danielle waiting for you to fucking show up. What kind of mom are you" said Daniel frustrated

"Hello" answered the bartender

"Who the fuck is this and where is Avelina" asked Daniel furious

"Listen here you motherfucker you don't get to show up after 7 fucking years and claim to be the best dad. You don't get to judge me. So go fuck yourself. Ava and I were fine. Perfect before you" said Avelina. "Go die in a fucking ditch and leave me and my fucking daughter and I wish you can suck dick for the rest of your life and also get it cut off because you failed to be a dad to a child you fucking fathered. Bullshit after all these years" she said furious

"Where are you?" He asked. The bartender took the phone

"She is at Red Lagoon. Please come fetch her or get someone to fetch her. She is on no state to drive" said the bartender

"Keep her there I am coming" he said dropping the call.

"A shot please. This the white tequila" she said

"I am sorry but no" the bartender

"I can fucking pay" she said raising her hands

"I know but that is not the case. You are the case" he said

"I don't need your pity. Give me a drink and let me be. I will tip you well" she said

"Money. I get tips daily. I am looking out for you" he said

"You know what. Fuck you. I know the perfect place where they won't fucking judge me"

She said getting up. Not being able to stand properly.  Taking we phone, wallet and car keys

"You are in no state to drive. Look at yourself. You can't even stand" he said

"I am fine" she said attempting to walk

"If you drive. You will get hurt and that means that you might die. Who are you leaving your daughter with?"

"She has Ashley. I won't say dad because he might disappear for another 7 years" she said

"Avelina" called out Daniel

"Here thank you" he said handing 100 dollars to the bartender

"You get the fuck away from me" he said

"Let us not play cats and dogs right now" he said

He picked her up to the car. His car. A black Audi. The latest

"Leave me the fuck alone.  What will you do. Fuck me give me another baby make me sign an NDA agreement and come back after 7 years asking if we have met before" she asked

"Shut up" he said as he started to drive

"Leaves me wondering am I the only girl or are there others like me out there"

"I said shut up"
