polly's POV

I am going for some shopping right now, but honestly right now, i am tired, I've been walking for minuets , i insisted to go alone but right now I'd die for someone to help me , and like magic, a guy picked my plastics.

"please let me help you" he says 

"thank you" we carry on walking towards the exit

"how many months?" he asks me.

"uhm 4 months "I tell him

"you look rather young " he says.

"I am not" I say slightly laughing.

"we are here...do you want me to go with you?'' he offers.

"no I'll catch a taxi'' i tell him

"what kind of a person would i be if i let a pregnant lady catch a taxi'' he offers once more

"no please its okay" i tell him

"okay look i get it, stranger danger, why don't you take a picture of my  number plate and send it to a relative or friend ...you can scan my contact? live location?" he insists , and i end up agreeing. I direct him towards the house and we arrive and he parks his car.

"wait this house belongs to Arcel"he states

I nod my head waiting for him to say his point

He unlocks the car

"You're not safe girly" he gestures for me to go and he gets off with full speed

I started walking in the house and I couldn't help but this man.

"Hey!" Michelle storms in my room greeting

"Go away!" I scream

"Polly what's wrong?" She asks as she sits on the bed besides me. I told her everything.

"Polly you need to speak to Arcel, Caleb and I are going out right now " she raises her eyebrow waiting for me to agree

"Okay" I say and she gets up to leave.

I mastered the courage to speak to him.

*Knock knock*

"Are you double pregnant?" He asks after opening the door.

I slightly chuckle "haha don't jinx it"

"I'm sorry" we said in unison. Our eyes widened and we started laughing

"I'm Polly you shouldn't have to see that" he began

"It's your house Arcel" I assure him

"It is but... it's yours to now" he tells me

"I'm sorry I overreacted the other time. It's not easy to be cared for and defended, I'm used to me defending me no none else, I don't know if I can ever be completely comfortable but I ...I want to try, for you I want to learn" I say and he hugs me and it stays like that for a while until he decides to speak again.

"Do you want to go back to school when the baby is born?" He asks.

I look at him and take a while to think , it'll be like starting way all over for me.

"Don't rush it Polly, one step at a time ,huh?" I nod and we go back to  hugging.

Thing is... I'm satisfied with this life I'm scared that at some time someone is going to wake me up, and I'll realise it's all...just a dream.

I am so grateful him I am I just- I'm to defensive, I can never my guard down I just won't.

*Ding*
*Ding *

That's the doorbell, Arcel and I both stare at each other wondering if either of was expecting someone.

Parcel and I both went to the door and when he opened the door he liked slightly...annoyed?

"My son" the man greeted and that's when it hit fuck! Arcels dad!

"Dad" he simply said making way for.him to enter.

I was just about  greet him when he threw his coat at me, and looked around the house I looked towards Arcel and he took his father's coat and hang it.

"Dad this Polly " he said introducing me I stretched my hand intending a handshake but instead he just looked me up and down and nodded and his focus went to my belly by the way he's expression change I could tell he wasn't happy with his realisation.

"This is her? This is the baby huh" he asks obviously not expecting a reply from Arcel.

"Dad what is this?" He Arcel asks, he didn't look happy about his father's visit.

"What Arcel I can't visit my only son? My only child?" He asks.

"Dad you don't just visit I know you and I'm not your only child" he says and now I'm like hella confused.

"Yes you are " he says.

"Dad I know you're not happy with Zoe and CJ but dad they just want to live their lives dad, Zoe is still the same kid you raises and Michael... he'll come around" he says and I can really see in Arcels eyes he's hoping his dad would just agree.

" My only daughter is gay! My oldest son wants be a artist and you my last born son is a failure! You are so young and you are having a baby ! With a unqualified girl! You're not married " he stops talking because he's simply out of breath and I'm glad he did because from the corner of my eyes I could see Arcel clench his jaw and I held his hand  to calm down

"Get out" he said in a low manner " Get out!" He yells this time.

" with pleasure " I could see he relaxed a bit but he was still angry.
