Donald had never told me how rich he was... His house was enormous. His family gave me a really good welcome. They made me feel like a part of their family. They were so sweet and caring
"Donald, you should have brought Stacie here earlier. She's such a perfect girl!" Donald's mom complimented me. She wouldn't stop smiling, I guessed she was really happy to finally see her son having a serious relationship. Even his father, who looked really strict, couldn't stop smiling. Everybody was full of laughter
"You should visit us more often." His brother told me with a bright smile
"Stop looking at my girlfriend. Find one for yourself!" I could hear jealousy in Donald's voice. He looked annoyed to see other guys looking at me, even though it was his brother
"Stop right here sons. Stacie is watching you guys." His mom looked at me, somewhat embarrassed of her kids. But I just smiled at her saying it's ok, "Stacie, do you have siblings?"
"No, I'm the only child." Unlike many only child people who always wanted a sibling, I enjoyed my life of being an only child and never desired for more.
"Where do your parents live?" They started asking about my parents and my expression changed for a tiny second. "Is everything ok?"
"Yes. My parents divorced since I was 5. I moved to another place and lived till now." Because of me the atmosphere wasn't so good for a second which I felt bad. I didn't want to tell but I didn't feel like not answering his parents or lying to them
"I'm so sorry to hear that..." I shook my head saying i had gotten over it. We changed to other topics and chatted until 9pm
"It's pretty late now. I need to bring Stacie back." Donald said, trying to get me out of the conversation that lasted for hours. I had a really good time
On the way home, Donald seemed to have really deep thinking about something so I didn't feel like interrupting him. The silence went on for a while until he broke it
"Stacie, can we talk?"
"About?" I asked curiously
"Your parents, your life, everything about you that I don't know." To be honest I didn't really want to talk about it to anyone. I didn't want to bring up my past, I didn't want to remind myself. I had gone this far, I just didn't want to look back. I didn't answer him, just gave him a hesitant look. "We've dated for months. Maybe you don't want to open up about yourself now but I'll always be here if you wanted to talk."
"I wasn't born in a happy family... I was a mistake of a one-night stand. My parents got married without love. And they decided to divorce as they thought I was mature enough...even though I was just 5. Then I moved to Louisiana with my aunt. She took care of me until I was 14 and left me alone by myself, since then I started finding part-time jobs to make money for my life and my study. In my high school I fell in love with a guy, I devoted all I have to him. And it turned out that he didn't want me at all, he just used me because he needed someone who could provide him both money and sex. I soon to realize that I just wasn't born to be loved. I lost hope in everything and started one-night stand things." I took a deep breath and let out a sigh as I finished my words. I was on the verge of tears until I realized I've had enough tears for my past and it's just not worth to cry anymore. My past wasn't good at all, just full of b*llshit.
"You were born to be loved honey." Donald said as he kissed my forehead. He embraced me tightly in his loving arms.
"I want to know more about you too." I hugged him back and asked
"I didn't date anyone until high school. I fell in love with a girl. She meant a lot to me at that time...until i saw her naked in my brother's bed..." He let out a sigh. I could see the pain in his eyes as he recalled his memory "We might seem to be good brother like what you see tonight. But deep down I wish we weren't related. After that I moved here and didn't have any contact with him. He was the only one I could lean on."
