"Sit down, angel" Aziz laughs as I pace back and forth in the living room.
"Well...I don't want to Aziz" I whine. Of course, the doorbell rings.
"Don't you dare start walking over there" Aziz warned me as he got up from the couch and to the front door. I don't actually know why I am pacing the living room, but all I do know is that Aziz wants me to sit down but that ain't happening honey.
"Yes you are, you are 25 weeks pregnant and you need to sit your butt down," he told me before opening the door. "Hey, What are you doing here Mr. Myers?" Aziz asks. I stopped my pacing and walked towards the door to see who it was.
There was a heavier set man who I don't know here. He had brown eyes and dirty blond hair, with pale skin. I don't know who he is. "I'm here because we caught him, and we believe he has a son," he says to Aziz before his eyes trailed over to me. "Hello there, you must be Mrs. Greenwood," the man said as I blushed.
Aziz only laughed as he let the man in. "Kind of, this is Amberley," Aziz told him as he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him. "Angel, this is Mr. Myers. He too is looking for your father."
"Wait, you said something about a son," I say confused. If they're talking about my father, then do they mean I have a brother?
"We believe so, but I and your husband will talk about this. Your office if you don't mind?" The man tells me before turning to Aziz. The nerve of this guy! I might have a brother and he is trying to push me out of it! Ugh! He thinks I'm married to Aziz too, like, like no we aren't married I'm Amberley, not Mrs. Greenwood.
"Baby" Aziz whispers in my ear. "Go watch a movie. There is ice cream in the freezer. I'll tell you everything after okay?" He tells me. Ice cream?
I don't even respond to him, I just run off to the kitchen. "Amberley! Get your ass back here!" Aziz tells me but I just go to the freezer. I take out the tub of cookies and cream ice cream and start eating straight from the tub. Mmmm.
I look up to see Aziz standing over me with his arms crossed. He looks angry. Uh oh. "Uh Oh is correct. I better not see you run again, you might trip and fall and hurt the baby. Do you understand me?" He tells me and I shrink down in my spot.
After a moment I nodded. He kissed my forehead before walking back to the office to talk to Mr. Myers. "Meanie" I mumble before talking I big bite out of my ice cream.
AZIZ:
I walk out of my office with James Myers, laughing at a joke he had said. It wasn't that funny, but I need this man to like me.
We walk towards the living room and I see my angel passed out on the couch with a tub of cookies and cream ice cream and a jar of pickles next to her. Adorable. "How far along is she?" James asked me as he sat down in the reclining chair next to the couch. I decided to sit next to Amberley and rub her back, but still next to James.
"25 weeks," I say calmly as I look down at Amberley and pull a piece of hair out of her face. "She's having a boy, you know. His name is Joseph"
"Ah, my nephews' name is Joseph. Maybe they can grow up together" James says as he shifts in his seat to get comfortable.
"It was her idea to name him that, I obviously agreed to it. She came from such a corrupted childhood, I couldn't let her or that baby see something like that ever again" I confess.
"That's very kind of you Greenwood. Are you going to tell her about Stephen?" James asks me. I look down at my angel and just think. What am I going to tell her? That her brother is a demon too? She won't be able to handle it. I need to find him first and talk to him, make sure he is who he says he is.
"I'll tell her, but right now is not the right time," I tell him. I watch as she stirs in her sleep, but quickly calms down drifting into another dream.
"Aziz!" Ethan yells as he runs down the stairs. Both me and James shushes him so he doesn't wake my angel. I point to her once Ethan walks into the living room and his mouth goes into an O shape. That idiot.
"Well, you need to see this" Ethan says before turning on the tv, but immediately turning the volume down.
A woman on the screen is standing in front of a house in the middle of some woods and a picture of a man in the corner of the screen. But that's not any man, it's Jacob. Amberley's father. "This man right here was found dead in his own home. It has been told that he was selling his daughter to men for sex in exchange for money. The daughter is unknown, but it is believed that she may have escaped." I turned off the tv. That's enough for tonight.
"You are free to stay the night Mr. Myers. I am off to bed" I say as I set the ice cream and pickles on the coffee table, then picking up Amberley bridle style and taking her upstairs.
I laid her down on my bed and tucking her in. She looks so peaceful when she sleeps. What am I going to do? Her father is dead and she has a brother. I don't need my angel stressed and hurting our baby. I'll tell her when the time is right, but right now she needs as much sleep as she can get.
