Hurt
Raven Pov
Blue called him daddy. Finally, she has a father figure in her life. I just hope it lasts. I don’t want my daughter to be hurt. And at the same time, I won’t fall for Ethan’s charms again.
But I had to go to work. Got a text from work that we had customers and just a few employees were available and he needed my help.
I told the father daughter duo I could not go to the park with them. It was upsetting seeing them both sad but I had to work.
I left with Amanda telling her to drop me off since she wanted to see someone around there. During the car ride, she was just smiling and chatting about how cute we were.
I just gave her a deadpanned look and said, “Not going to happen, Amanda. Don’t even think about going there”.
” Why not? He’s single and not to mention hot!”, she said, pouting.
“Come on Maddy you can’t just expect me to forgive him just like that after what he did to me.” I snapped my fingers for effect.
“But that was a long time ago, Raven. I just want to see you happy.” She said dejectedly
“Just drop it okay, I am very much satisfied living with my daughter ALONE,” I said angrily.
“Okay, whatever,” she said, rolling her eyes. “But just remember, he is the father of your child, you will surely forgive him eventually and who knows, maybe have sex with him!” she said, smirking.
“No! It will never happen”, I said sternly, getting out of her car.
“You are going to have sex with him!” she screamed. People were staring at us, embarrassed, I had to walk faster into the building blushing.
I went in to see Dave. He told me he needed help with the restaurant. And I helped him serve the customers since we were short of employees today. And people came from different places to check out the place so it was a very busy day
As I got to the next table to ask what they wanted I was surprised to see Ethan with Blue. I thought they were going to the park and, now he knows I work here, that is the last thing I wanted him to know. He will not agree with what I am doing.
He just looked at me. “You work here?”
“Yes, I work here, any problem?” I sassed.
“You can’t work here! No way! You need to quit this job. I don’t want you working Raven” he said angrily.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
See what I was saying, a control freak, I just looked at him and said, “You don’t own me, neither are you my husband. So please stop trying to control me. I’m not that girl anymore. I do what I want to do so fuck off”, then I left him there and told someone else to serve them.
I’m done with his nonsense. He can’t come back into my life and boss me over just because we have a kid together. No, I will not let him try and control me again. Never!
Ethan Pov
She works here? Why would she even work in this kind of location? How did she even get the job? And when I asked her to quit, her reply was surprising.
I just don’t like her working in this kind of environment where men can stare at her and do things to her and what not?!.
I have the money to take care of her and our kid. She doesn’t need to work.
Okay, she’s right, I’m a little controlling. I’m the reason she is here in the first place. If I hadn’t filed for a divorce, all this would not have arisen. I’m at fault.
I hurt her again. I should try thinking about how she feels about it and stop making decisions for her.
God, I’m so fucking stupid.
I looked down at my daughter, she was glaring at me. Oh, I’m dead!
“Go apologise to mama now!” she said, pointing her finger at me. Damn, she’s so little yet so scary.
I should apologise to Raven. I ran after her only to see her hugging a guy and he was consoling her, with his hands all over her.
Now I’m green with jealousy. Who the fuck does he think he is? He touched my woman.
I was livid! I moved toward them and blew up again, “Raven who is he? Is he your beau? Is he your sex pal or som-“, before I could complete my sentence Raven slapped me.
“You disgust me. Why will you say that to me? Yet again you’re jumping to conclusions. You know nothing about me. I don’t want to see your fucking face again unless it’s about Blue”, then she stormed out of the room.
Oh my fucking God. That was FALSE on so many degrees. But I just couldn’t hold my dialect. I was feeling angry and jealous at the same time. I just-Ugh!
The guy looked at me and I was outraged to see it was Dave.
He threw daggers at me with his eyes, “I thought you have changed Ethan, but you’re still the same. Most importantly, insecure and doubtful. That was the reason your marriage fell apart,” he said. He was just about to leave the room when he halted and said, “Just so you know, Raven and I are just friends and I’m happily married to my husband.”
I think he is right about my behaviour and attitude. I do have some anger issues, that was the reason why my first girlfriend broke up with me. I got so furious and punched her when she was talking to a guy, and I didn’t know it was her brother.
After that day she got so scared of me and broke up with me. Even though I tried to apologise to her she wouldn’t let me close to her without looking so scared. I have to work on that if I want things to work out between me and Raven.
And especially if I don’t want to lose my girls.
