I found out yesterday, Jeremy and I are expecting. We weren't planning for this new little boy or girl in our lives. Jeremy couldn't hold down a job for more than two months, and my benefits for short term disability were running out. How were we planning on taking care of this little child, this unexpected little bundle that was supposed to bring us joy. How could I tell him we were expecting?
They had to put me in a cast. The thing itched like none other. I was happy when they told me my friends could sign it though. My mom bought me a pack of sparkle sharpies so my friends could write their names and draw pretty pictures for me. No one really asked about how I go the cast. I wasn't about to tell them my secret. No one needed to know the truth.
I was given a gift when I was placed into his care. He was the only one I could trust, the only one who truly cared about me. I don't know how I understood it then, when I was just a bratty little child, but this man, my legal guardian, he cared about me. and despite all of my instincts to never trust a man, I knew i could trust him. He gave me the gift of trust, but he gave me something more, the gift of love.
I was upstairs w hen it happened. I remember it clearly, my mother had sent me to get the laundry. I didn't have classes that day, so when it struck, and the dust covered my home. I was there. I heard their screams. those who saw it happen. I remember it clearly.
The string that held our relationship together was growing thin. Meggie wanted out, I could see it in her eyes. Everything about me was the opposite of her, and she felt like I was holding her back, at the same time, she was scared of the change that leaving a six year relationship would bring. I'm not sure if I can let her go.
Her lashes were long and dark. The thickest lashes I'd ever seen on a real woman. My sister had dolls with lashes that thick, but I was amazed that a living breathing human could have such lashes. She hardly ever wore mascara, I heard her admit to her girlfriends one day. She didn't need it.
I loved roller blading as a kid. The best part was feeling the wind rush through my hair and whip across my face when I went really fast. That's why I never wanted to wear a helmet. Fortunately enough I never got in any crashes. I can't imagine what would have happened if I fell.
When I woke up, I couldn't see a thing. My eyes felt puffy, and it was difficult to gather my surroundings. My arms felt heavy and it was a moment before I realized. I'd been chained to the wall. For what reasons, or by whom I didn't remember. I had to get out of there
Regardless of what she demands. I will always be there for her. Today, she asked me to cover of her while she walked into a store and held it up. I was the getaway. I don't care. I love her too much to say no to anything she asks. She has complete control over me.
