One More Chance novel Chapter 15

~~I don't know why I love you. I don't know why I stay. I don't know if it's worth the pain. But even when you slam the door and drive away, I still set the table for two. Babe, you know I'm waiting for you...~~~

Samantha's POV:

"Good morning, Mrs. Williams. Here's your breakfast."

"Jack." I smiled as she placed the tray of food on the bed. She insisted last night to stay and sleep in one of the guest rooms since Luke hadn't yet arrived.

"How's your sleep?" She asked, still smiling.

"You don't have to do this, Jack."

"I know, but I love to, so you'd better get up and fix yourself and I will join you to eat these delicious pancakes and chocolate waffles... Hmm." She really had to close her eyes and smell the food in front of her.

"Is he already here?"

She suddenly stopped in her tracks. "I think these pancakes are best with chocolate syrup!" She stood up, pretending not to hear me.

"Jack, is Luke already here?"

"Oh, yeah... I forgot to make a coffee, I'll be back---"

"Jackeline!" I yelled before she could even reach the door.

She turned to the bed, sighing.

"Haist, Sam." She said shaking her head.

I knew it. Honestly, I already know the answer, but I just don't know why I had to ask and literally hear it.

"Why don't you call him?"

"As if he would answer my calls."

A few seconds of silence had passed before she took the spoon and fork and started slicing the pancakes.

"You know what, I'm starting to get worried about you, especially now that you're two months pregnant. Will you still continue your studies?"

"Of course! It's only two months and we're graduating from senior high school."

"But what about your condition?"

"Jack, I'm just pregnant but I can still walk, I can still read, nothing's changed. And I don't care whatever people may tell me. I will graduate from this school year and show them that being pregnant is not a reason not to continue your dreams!"

"Ahh... that's good to hear, girl! Just always remember that your family and of course, me, your best friend, will always be here for you in every step of the way."

"Thanks, Jack."

When she left the house, I started doing my morning routine... I arranged some of my personal things, fixed my bed and sleeping sheet and then I took a bath before going down to the living room.

My mother-in-law temporarily assigned us their two maids te to us while we wait for the new maids to arrive.
