When I left the company that afternoon, I rushed back home quickly to pick up River's lunch. Honestly I always had a feeling she was telling the truth when she said she was innocent. And now, after hearing dad's words, I really wanted to investigate more.
I drove to her university quickly. I wanted to hand her the lunch box personally, so I parked my car, and walked to her faculty. When I got there, I couldn't find her, so I asked around.
I felt anxious, and didn't know what to do. I took out my phone to call her, then a group of girls walked up to me. "You're looking for River, right?". One of the girls asked.
I nodded. "Yes. I am. Have you seen her?". I asked, as I eyed the girls outfit. She was wearing a skirt that was way above her knees, a translucent tank top that said 'free the nipples', and she really had her nipples free. She had her hair dyed in a bright pink and green color.
She had like a dozen piercings, and a tattoo on her belly that said 'cum dump'. I tried hard not to frown. "How is this shit even allowed on campus?". I wondered.
She popped her gum loudly in my face, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Yeah. I saw her. She went out with some guy named Spencer". She said, as she placed a hand on my shoulder.
I moved away from her. "Thanks". I said, and walked back to my car. I took out my phone and called River.
I felt my heart swell with anger. But why was I angry? Why did I care if she was with someone else? I wondered.
"River, where the fuck are you? I brought you lunch, and I can't find you anywhere. What are you doing right now? Where did you go?". I asked angrily.
I wanted to know who she was with, and why she didn't tell me before leaving the campus.
To be honest, I just wanted her and the baby to be safe. I didn't mean to hurt her with my words. But for some unexplainable reason, I just say stupid things when I open my mouth.
"I- I came to a café just a few blocks away from the university. Sorry I didn't inform you. I'll come back to the university now". She said, stuttering.
"No! Stay right there. I'll bring the food to you. Share your location with me". I said sternly
"Okay". She said before hanging up.
I got back in my car and drove off. I stopped by a dessert shop on my way to the café.
I waited in line to buy desserts for her. I collected the package and returned to the car.
I felt like I was trying too hard to be nice to her. I wanted to be certain that she was innocent. Only then would I be able to freely treat her well.
I placed the package on the front passenger seat, and drove to the location. As I parked my car, I was a bit hesitant to go into the café.
I wondered if she was in a relationship with the guy in the café with her.
As I walked to the glass door, I saw him take a tissue, and help her wipe something from the corner of her mouth.
She smiled at him and said "Thanks". I felt my stomach flip. I wanted to walk in there and punch him in the face, and tell him she's mine, but I decided to play it cool.
I walked into the café with River's lunch in my hand, plastering a fake smile on my face.
"Don't punch him. He's done nothing wrong - at least not yet". I said to myself as I walked towards them.
