Chapter Twelve: White Hair Will Grow

"Yup, okay, thanks for calling, " I sighed and hung up the phone. I was at work feeling like I wanted to die.

Well, right after I bought my moms stuff, I went home and was investigated. You know it's hard trying to explain to your parents that you were being kidnapped. Yes, I did say parents, because turns out, my dad just arrived and I didn't even know that he was coming down today. My mom didn't even know.

He didn't tell her that they cancelled his meeting in Paris so he flew back. He just went to England and came back. Man, I seriously wish I went to England. Why can't I just poof up there or something? Then I'd meet English people and some new friends and hopefully find myself an English guy too.

Oh well, a girl can dream.

I rubbed my temple and sighed. Working night shifts was super hard. I needed to finish incomplete home work and assignments that I didn't do plus, I have a quiz tomorrow. Great.

I groaned closing my eyes and resting my chin on my palms, "I really shouldn't have watched Netflix all day," I told myself.

"You okay honey? " I turned around to see Martha looking at me with concern, "You look a little pale. Are you getting enough rest. "

I looked up and gave her a small smile, "I'm fine. I'm just a little tired."

She raised her eye brows and smirked, "Have you been sleeping enough? "

"Not really, " I replied honestly. Truth, I don't sleep much. I'm super hung up on Netflix that I can't sleep because 13 reasons why has my hooked.

"Well, you should start thinking of getting some sleep because-"

"I'm a growing teenager and I need at rest at least 7 to 9 hours or else my muscles won't repair and I'll start being cranky and I'll get old and then white hair will grow in every part that has hair, " I finished and released a long sigh making Martha raised her eyebrows.

"I was going to say because you're way too young to be sleep deprived but yeah-," she giggled a little, "-that works too I guess."

My eyes widened and I realised how crazy the last line of my little stress rant sounded: White hair will grow in every part that has hair?

I smiled and looked at Martha, "Right. "

"It's Saturday, go home and get a real good sleep, I'll finish up for you, " Martha said resting her hand on my shoulder.

"Thanks, " I gave her a smile and stood up packing my stuff. "Oh and um, how'd it go? The meeting the other family thing? "

She rolled her eyes and sighed, "It was okay, I mean besides the fact that Clyde's mother is convinced that the only reason I'm with him is because of his money. "

"They're old school, of course she'd think that, " I slung my bag over my shoulder and straightened up the strap.

"Yeah well, it's a little crazy because Clyde and I have been together for as long as I remember and we've also been hiding our relationship from his parents because he didn't want his mom to say something bad to me and make me feel bad and the, well, you get the whole idea of how these cliche stuff are, " she chuckled and tucked a piece of her brunette hair behind her ear.

I stared at her tummy and smiled. It was getting bigger and bigger everyday. I just loved how amazing it was that women could carry the weight not only of themselves but if another human tiny creature inside them. Feeding not only one but two mouths and looking after themselves which also benefits both the baby and the mother. I was always amazed at that.

"You want to feel it kick? " I got pulled out of my thoughts when Martha asked putting one hand over her huge tummy.

My eyes widened and I looked at her, "Sure, that'd be awesome. "

She moved around a little bit and got comfortable than turned around towards me. I kneeled down in front of her and she took my hand putting it on a spot in her tummy, just then I felt a little kick coming from inside her tummy that send waves of shivers down my spine.

I chuckled and looked at Martha who winked at me, "Talk to it. I actually think it listens. "

I smiled and tucked my blonde hair behind my ear and leaned into Martha's tummy to whisper, "Hey little buddy, come out faster okay?"

Martha laughed and shook her head, "7 more months Page. 7 more months."

"I know, still. I cannot wait to hold this tiny creature, " I said standing back up.

"Clyde wants a boy," she huffed, "He wants to have a little man around the house. "

I smiled, "He's sweet, and the baby is definitely lucky to have you both as parents. You'd make an awesome mom."

"Awe, you flatter me, " she laughed.

"Thank you, thank you, " I joked and took a small bow.

"Oh shut up and get home, stop kissing ass," she said giggling and turning back to her work station.

I said my good bye and walked out the work building heading to the bus stop. That yellow bee has become my best friend these past few days. Hopefully, I get my car back now that dads here. So that Aldan won't have to drive me, I wouldn't have to die because I'm sharing the same breathing space with him. Everything would get back to normal, hopefully.

One things for sure, Monday was not going to be easy.





















Question: Should I make long chapters or short ones are better?
