Differently Same

Chapter 3

"Fill out this form and then you need to bring these documents." She said and pointed to the paper where a list of required documents was written.

"Can I bring back the form with the set of documents tomorrow?" I asked since my anxiety was taking over.

"Sure." She said with a sweet smile.

I cannot believe that i am doing this. I'm finally going to film school. I've been dreaming about becoming a director ever since i was a child. I gave up on it after marrying Dex. But it's unbelievable that I'm standing here with an entry form in my hand.

Dex didn't want me to go to film school. For starters, he thought it was a shitty profession. That should've been the first giant red flag that i should've acknowledged but i have no idea what was wrong with me. He also said that if i go to college, I'll be too busy to give him any time.

Even though it sounds so obvious that this relationship wasn't healthy, i was happy. I thought Dex was the love of my life. I thought he would be my everything. I thought we would grow old together, start a family, buy a house, have grandkids.... But he left.

Serves you right for staying with a man who cheated on you.

Annie's voice echoed in my head. Those were the exact words she said when i told her that Dex left me. It was harsh but true. I should've left the day he cheated on me but fuck me and my stupidity.

Busy in my thoughts, i didn't see where i was going and tripped over a big rock on the sidewalk.

"Woah, are you okay?" Someone said.

Well my face took a huge impact and a metallic taste started to appear form my lips. I tried to move my leg but it felt impossible. Something heavy was suddenly put on my head as an immese headache came on.

The stranger who inquired about my health, shook me by my arms before turning me around. He was saying something but i couldn't hear him.
Damn did i loose my hearing? How would i hear the baby crying?

Baby. Baby?! Oh my god, the baby?! Oh fuck. Oh i hope you're okay. Oh lord, please let it be perfectly fine in there. Please please please.

Tears started flowing from my eyes. I shut them tightly and started to pray until my limbs went loose and i couldn't open my eyes.

The above mentioned stranger's P.O.V

This was bad. That women was bleeding from her head badly. I hope she's okay. She also started crying before fainting. I wonder what that was about. She was thin, not that sexy thin but thin like you haven't eaten anything for 3 days. She didn't look poor. Her dress and coat looked expensive and she was holding a college application. Then, why did she looked like she hadn't eaten anything in days?

Anyways, i got my problem to worry about. I have a meeting to go to. Boss will kill me if I'm late. I'm already on thin ice from when Ashley came to visit and we took an hour long lunch. Fuck. I have to leave.

This is the most i could possibly do, right? I brought her to the hospital, I prepaid her bills. That's honestly all i can do. And let me tell you those bills were not cheap... But she looked too helpless walking down that street before she tripped. I can't get those images out of my head, especially not the ones in which she was crying, laying on the ground whilst bleeding. I have never seen someone so broken before.

But i have to go or i loose my job or worst, i loose the promotion to Jerry. Fuck Jerry honestly, the only reason he even has this job is because of his daddy. I wish i had a rich Dad. Life would be so much easier.
