Me

It’s good. I got flowers. Again

Abigail Ann

HOLY SHIT.

Me

Cry me a river. Text you later, okay? I love you.

Abigail Ann

I love you more, and of course.

“Azzaria!” Nicholas exclaimed, bursting through the door with two coffees. “Are you alright?”

“Do I not look okay?”

“I know you’re probably uneasy because of therapy…” My heart stopped, and my expressions froze. What did he just say? How did he even know this?

“I would strongly advise you to shut the hell up and let me be. This is a warning, Nicholas.”

“Your mom said you—”

“My what?” I shot up from the chair, anger in my eyes. “Get out. Now,” I shouted, and he left.

I knew that if I were supposed to talk to my mom in the anger I have right now, I would never forgive myself. All the more reason why my phone will stay off.

I loved her, endlessly, don’t get me wrong, but she definitely crossed a big line saying all of that.

Shaking that thought, I went back to getting work done. The day was boring and overly annoying anyway.

CHAPTER 16

Azzaria

“What do people even wear to a baby shower?” I asked Abi as we were on a FaceTime call. I was ranting to her about literally everything.

My hair and makeup were already done, but now it was time to choose an outfit. I didn’t have the most vast closet nor did I have time to go and buy something new.

Abigail, while munching on grapes, spoke, “Wear a nice dress. How about the red bodycon dress?”

“Abigail, I have about four red dresses. Which one?”

“The one that shows your curves—the tight, sexy one. After all, your boyfriend will be there, so you gotta look sexy and classy,” she said with a wink.

I chuckled and rolled my eyes, reaching for the hanger with the dress she had in mind. “Oh, stop it, and he’s not my boyfriend.”

“You’re in denial.”

“Sure.”

“I think he’s good for you, Azzy.”

I chuckled again, “Yes, I think so too.”

“You deserve happiness, and you look stunning. Go have fun and text me when you get there. I can message your mom as well, considering you’re still upset about what happened.”
