Brotherly Love: Chapter Two

Chapter 10: Happiness

A week later

I walk into the Vet Clinic, I was sick of being ignored by Gracie Ann and I wanted to talk to her and to see where things stand between us, not relationship wise.

"Hey Eve". I say to another Vet at the Clinic, she was filing some things into the cabinet behind the front desk. "Hey Sam". I say to the receptionist.

Eve and Sam both look up at the same time. Sam smiles wildly at me, and Eve gives me a warm smile.

"Hey Caleeb". Eve says finally retrieving the file from the filing cabinet. "Long time no see".

"I know, been kind of busy with life, you know how that goes". I say to her while leaning both my hands on the front desk.

"Sam? Can I speak to Gracie?, it's important".

Sam looks up from the computer once more, and nods to the direction of Gracie's examination room.

"Her and Jose are dealing with a Rabbit, broken leg, poor guy". She frowns.

"Thank you, I owe you one".

I walk towards the examination room, my heart in my chest beating a thousand beats per minute. I know this is going to be hard and I'm just bracing myself for the yelling and screaming.

I knock at the door. But there was no response. Growing impatient I open the door since it was unlocked. My eyes widen in shock to see Gracie Ann performing oral sex on Jose, one of her coworker.

"Really Gracie Ann?". She quickly jumps up, wiping her mouth and buttoning her blouse that were showing her exposed breast.

"What are you doing here Caleeb?". She grunts at me with her arms now folded across her chest.

Jose fixes himself behind her, and picks up a cage containing a white rabbit with a limp leg. He whispers something into her ear and walks towards me.

"Excuse me". He says walking through the door.

I wanted to turn around and grab him. Rip his fucking throat out. And Gracie? Everything in my body made me want to lash out at her and scream in her face at the top of my lungs. How could she do this knowing she was carrying our unborn child.

Was I jealous ? No. But she has my unborn baby inside of her and here I am finding her doing something that is not like her at all.

I slam the door shut, my angry eyes beaming through her nonchalant ones. She looked nothing like the Grace I first met, nothing like the Grace I thought I knew. She sits on the edge of her desk, crossing her legs with her arms still folded on her chest.

"Are you going to fucking answer me?". I snap at her.

"What was the question?". She ask rolling her eyes.

"You have seriously lost your mind, are you forgetting that you are pregnant with my child?".

"You haven't touched me in months, am I suppose to feel obligated to you? We are no longer together, I don't care what you do or who you do so you shouldn't give a damn about what I'm doing and who I'm doing it with!". She yells getting up and walking towards me.

At this point we were so close to each other, I could feel her breath clashing with mine. Anger lacing both of our eyes as we stare at each other with death glares.

"I don't care what you do!, but when my child is involved? That's when it becomes my business, you are acting selfish".

"Your child? Where have you been this entire month ? You missed YOUR child's first ultrasound! And you want to talk about I'm selfish? Fuck you Caleeb".
