Layler's POV.I wake up and I find myself in this beautiful warm room. The room is blue, the curtains on my left are brown, there is a fancy white mat covering the whole room, a chair and a table next to the door, a huge wardrobe on my right hand side.
Where am I? If this is a dream I better bump into my mother Quela for answers.I get out of the bed and I open the curtains. I see that it is still raining outside. I walk towards the table where I find a clock, it's 8:45am.
Flip I didn't sleep at home, I actually had plans to crash at Bauti's or Alvaro's house, I know very well that this isn't my room at Bauti's house, maybe I am at Alvaro's.I look down and I find that I am wearing an oversized brown hoody and a pair of skinny jeans, at least these fit, also the warm sleepers.
I decide to get out of the room and I observe my surroundings.The minute I exit the room, I see 2 rooms on my left and a main room right at the corner and on my right I see 3 more rooms.
I walk down the stairs and I see this beautiful marble fireplace and fancy stony walls, hazel couches, too much brown is going on.
I notice a male figure sitting on one of the couches, Jerry! I slept at Jerry's house, no wonder the brown, just like his office.
"Uhmmmm" I say.
"Oh hey, I made you a hot cup of coffee"
"Thanks" I am still standing and looking at him with an emotionless expression.
"Come on I won't bite take a seat" He says and I sit down and I drink the cup of coffee but then I remain silent.
"Croissants?"
"No I do not have much of an appetite"
"Okay suit yourself"
"You know where I am from when someone collapses we take them to the hospital" I say as I remember passing out in the rain.
"And where I am from, you do not take Layler Messiah to the hospital without her permission"
"What if it was something serious?"
"Well thank God it wasn't, the doctor said you are fine, you are just exhausted that's all"
"Okay"
"Yeah"
"Your life has too much brown going on" I say.
"Yours has too much black going on, you just need a Goth attire to top it off" He smirks, he is actually quite cute when he is in his comfort zone.
"Ha-ha funny" I roll my eyes.
"You can at least laugh, anyway brown is my favourite colour" Mine too but you don't have to know.
"Oh" I say as I take a sip of my coffee.
"Uhmmm" He says but I just look at him and he keeps quiet.
"Uhmmmmmmmuhmmm"
"It's either you’re gonna stop making that nauseating sound or talk"
"Why were you so upset?"
WAY TO RUIN THE PEACE!
You need someone to talk to… No I don't. Layler come on man talk.
"Nothing I am just exhausted, a lot can happen in a month, pregnancy, family secrets, work, all that brouhaha"
"Who is pregnant?"
Oops! Busted! My inner voice is louder than me."No one, please take me home"
The sooner I get out of here the better. I stand up and he rushes up to me and he holds me close to him by putting his hands on my hips."Layler I know" What do you know?
"You know?"
"I know that you are pregnant, and I know that it's mine, how long were you planning on keeping quiet?"
Forever and a day that's how long...wait he is way too calm, okay that is it I need to get out of here.
I push him away but he still holds a stiff grip on my hips. Dammit Jerry."I do not know what you are talking about" I look away.
"Is that why you came to see me last Saturday?" He asks but I keep quiet and he leans and he tries to kiss me.
"What are you doing?" I ask.
"You have blessed me with a child Layler and I...I am in love with you okay! I tried not to but I cannot! I know there is more to you and I know you love me too, that is why you did not get rid of our child the minute you found out, that is why you’re letting me hold you like this, at first you acted like you didn't like me, that might have been the case but I know for a fact that you were hoping that I would say that you should keep this baby which shows that you love the bond this child brings to us, tell me if am lying?" He says and I kiss him back with full force this time. He is a Mercy dear.
And with that I pull back.
"What child!"
"It's funny how you’re badass but your phone doesn't have a password, Alvaro wanted to know when you’re going baby shopping"
Flip he went through my phone!
"Fine you don't wanna take me home then I will call a cab"
I take the telephone on the wall and I start to dial, after that I go wait outside for the cab.
15 minutes later Jerry comes outside."Dude! I left you alone, leave me alone please" I say, my tone sounds more like a plea.
"I love you Layler, I know you might be my cousin and al-"
"My cab is here" I walk towards it, keep walking L and never look back.
