Heartbroken
I walked into Mr Jonas office while Mrs Jonas was also there with her husband , Mr and Mrs Jonas are the owner of the restaurant I work as a waiter.
My name is Britany Bay.
I walked to Mr Jonas desk while Mrs Jonas was sitter, she looked at me with pity.
" Sit down " Mrs Jonas says.
" Yes ma" I replied and sit.
" I am sorry to tell you that this cafe shop no longer belong to us, we have run into lots of debts recently and we thought the best is to sell off the cafe" Mr Jonas says.
Tears began to gather up in my eyes because I have no where to go.
" Listen dear, we know your present condition that you will need some money and this is why we had decided to arranged this little money for you, you can use it to sustain yourself till you put to bed and get yourself a new job" Mr Jonas says and collects an envelope from her husband and gives it to me.
" You can get yourself an apartment, we would have bring you along with us but we have decided to move back to our country and see what we can do with the money with us" Mrs Jonas says.
I was trying hard to control my tears from falling down but I can't, a tear escaped my face because I would miss this family so much, they are such a wonderful couple, they didn't know me from anywhere, I had only slept in front of their cafe when I and my ex husband, a contracted husband got divorced few months ago, they took me into their cafe , gave me a job and even gave me a place to sleep in their cafe, I get to hit three times a day just because of this couple.
I looked at them both and smile with the envelope in my hand, I embrace Mrs Jonas.
" I will miss you so much and thank you for the money" I said with tears.
" You are welcome darling" Mr and Mrs Jonas answered in chorused.
I stood up when I heard a name called from
The TV that got my attention.
" The most elegible bachelor, billionaire business tycoon Mr Alex Blair is off the singles market, he just got engage to Miss earth , the one and only woman who has ever represented the nation and came back with a crown Lily Brown, this is something huge and I call it power and influence, they are going to set the celebrity world ablaze with their step out" a presenter said on the Tv.
I looked up and there was the Video of he and Lily Brown standing with she showing off her ring.
As I look into the TV tears began to gather up in my face again, to control my tears was so hard, I walked out of the office in a haste into one corner of the restaurant inside the store to cry.
I break down and cry with the envelope in my eyes.
I flash back to how I signed a contract with him and how we got divorced, I held my tummy and how I got the news of our baby on the day our contract ended.
I wasn't supposed to cry because what we had was a contract marriage but we fell in love along the line and I love him so much.
It all began a year and few months ago when my stepmom had come home saying her bosses daughter needs someone to go into a contract marriage with her fiancé to get back all his inheritance from his uncle who is trying to take away his inheritance.
My stepmom works with Lily's mom as a maid, my Dad is late so she has been the one shouldering the family responsibilities.
she overheard Lily's conversation on the phone with a friend that she pleaded that my sister should be given the opportunity to become Alex ex contracted wife but my step sister wasn't interested, we needed the money then, I needed to raise fund for my school while she needed some money for other things on the house, I had to convince my step sister into taking the offer which she agreed but unfortunately when my step sister got to Alex he found her way to younger and that was when I had to take up the role, immediately I was taken to him, he agreed to sign the contract with me, my step mom got the money, Three hundred thousand dollars, in my country it's a lot of money.
We had a civil wedding and I moved in with him because I have to be with him till the contract is terminated or till he gets his inheritance and thinks I can go away.
I never thought we would get along few months to the end of the contract that resulted in me carrying his baby.
Our love story began three months prior to the end of the contract when I had try visiting my step mom and realized I have been played by my stepmom, she relocated to Holland with the whole money, she sold off the house.
I was heartbroken left devastated, we don't usually talk but make sure I get what I want.
I didn't know he was back home when I entered into the living room crying, he was on the staircase staring at me as I break down and cry on the sofa, I didn't know when he got I front of me, it was when he spoke up that I realized he in front of me.
" What is it? He asked softly.
" You didn't find your stepmom and your step siblings right? He asked and sit beside me.
I looked into his eyes beside me and I could see he looked at me with lot of pity while I was wondering of how he knew I didn't find my stepmom and my stepsister.
