Olivia POV
It’s been three days since I found out about Tammy. I can’t believe it myself. What is Raphael thinking? Does he know? I bet he knows now.
Anna has been taking care of me a while should be the other way around. She is almost having her baby and I am being a burden to her.
I look around and no-one is home, I know they had a doctor appointment today. I walk to the kitchen to make some coffee. Decaf coffee. When I finished I took a sip and walked to the living room. I took a seat on the sofa and turned the tv on. E! channel it is, if there’s any news from Raphael this will be the first place to talk about him.
A lot of news from celebs were talked about and nothing from Raphael. I took a deep breath and decided it was time to let him explain. To let him come back to me and our baby.
I walk to the guest bedroom and grab my phone that was charging. I turn it on and I am hit by more than twenty text messages and a full voice mail.
Taking a deep breath I decide to listen to the voice messages.
“Olivia where the fuck are you?”
“Olivia please answer the phone”
“Olivia this is not fucking funny, answer the phone”
“Olivia where are you?”
“Olivia baby, please answer the phone”
“Olivia I love you baby”
My heart skips a beat hearing his voice. This messages repeated themselves over and over again. I deleted them all and when I finish my last one my phone rings. It’s Raphael.
“Hello” - I say answering it
“Thank fuck, where are you?” - he asks
“I am safe” - I say
“Olivia baby, we need to talk”
“I know” - I say
“Tell me where you are and I will meet you”
“You know where I am because by now you already tracked my phone”
“I am on my way baby, don’t move” - he says and I can feel tears burning my eyes.
“Olivia?”
“Yes?”
“I love you” - he says hanging up the phone.
I take a deep breath and walk towards the mirror. I look sick. The morning sickness is taking over my life, why do they call morning sickness if happens all day every day?
I look pale, I pass my fingers through my hair and I tie it in a messy bun.
I am wearing some of Anna’s yoga clothes. I don’t know how I am going to feel seeing Raphael, but I need to do this. We need to sort it out.
I walked back to the kitchen and made some toast. While I was taking the first bite I hear the doorbell.
I look at the little television and I see Raphael, he is wearing a brown leather jacket, his hair is messy and he has his sunglasses.
“Come in” - I say opening the door of the building.
Not long after he was knocking at the door.
I take a deep breath and I open the door to be met with a very angry Raphael. His eyes are dark and he has bags under his eyes, he looks like he aged a few years. His beard is bigger.
Raphael wraps his arms around me tight. So tight that I am struggling to breathe.
“I need to breath” - I tell him and he looks at me relaxing his arms around me.
“Why did you leave me again? You can’t leave every time something happens”
“Come in” - I say while he steps inside and I close the door.
I walk towards the sofa and I sit. Raphael starts pacing around looking at me.
“Are you going to say something?” - shit I haven’t thought of anything. My brain went to mush as I see how worried he looked.
Raphael walks towards me and kneels in front of me.
“Olivia, talk to me baby”
“She’s having your baby” - I say
“Yes” - he says
“Are you staying with her?” - I ask him
“No”
“What does she want?”
“Me”
I look up into his eyes and I can feel tears falling from my eyes. He didn’t hide it at least.
“I am having a DNA test done this week” - he says
“And then what?”
“She said I had to choose between you or the baby” - he says raping his arms around my waist and lowering his head on my legs - “but I am not leaving you”
“You can’t let her harm the baby Raph”
“I’ll figure something out” - he says
I plant a kiss on the top of his head and he looks up at me. His eyes are full of hope.
“Did you ever cheat on me?” - I ask him.
“Olivia”
“I need to know” - I tell him.
