LINA

Being alone and on the road brought a sense of deja vu. Just like yesterday when I did exactly the same thing. My next move would be to call Sharon like last time. Maybe I would even make the same mistake and have sex with another man. I chuckled sadly at that thought.

I have to do things a little differently this time. I don’t want Stefan to find me and Sharon would be the first person he’ll call. As much as I hate to do this, there’s only one person I can call right now. I’m just glad I saved it.

He picked up at the third ring. He must be busy, maybe I shouldn’t have called him.

Hello…

I sniffled lightly.

Hi Ethan. I’m sorry for calling this early if you’re still in bed or resting.

Lina?

He asked as if unsure.

Yes it’s me.

I croaked out chuckling once again. I’m being too emotional. Imagine crying while on the phone.

Oh my. You sound terrible.

I know.

I added chuckling while sobbing lightly.

No, I didn’t mean it like that really. What’s wrong?

It’s Stefan.

I couldn’t hold back the tears anymore.

Where are you right now.

I hurridely gave him directions.

Stay right there. I’m coming to get you.

He hung up. I rubbed my palms against one another frantically as I tried to get warm. Like I said, frigging deja vu.

Ethan maintained eye contact while I sipped from my cup of coffee. I’ll give it less than ten seconds before his curiosity gets the best of him.

“She came?”

He finally enquires. I dropped the cup facing him.

“Yup. Arrived in full glory with Stefan jnr.”

I chuckled again.

“Are you okay?”

“I’m fine Ethan. Once again, I’m so sorry for burdening you with my problems. I’ll think of some place to stay right now so I can get out of your hair.”

“You can stay here.”

He offered making me choke.

“But…”

“I’m out on work most of the times. I have a guest room that’s not in use and I promise to be a gentleman. I don’t want you staying in some crappy hotel. Please Lina.”

If he only knew I didn’t even have enough money to afford a hotel.

“Ethan, this is too much. What if Stefan finds out…”

“You aren’t his property anymore. You never even were. He might be my friend but no one deserves to be going through what you’re facing. I’ll handle Stefan if he finds out. For now, you just need to get yourself together.”

He reached across the table, holding my hand. I didn’t oppose letting his body hear spread across my fingers.

“No matter what, I’m right here. I’m here for you Lina.”

He declared staring right at me. I looked away.

“It’ll just be for a few days.”

I gave in earning a small smile.

“I’ll go set the room up.”

He dashed away making me smile lowly.

My phone began ringing. Sharon was calling.

Hi.

I greeted too tired to make an effort at sounding ok.

Did something happen? Stefan Pierce just came here looking like he was going to go mad. He was searching for you. I told him you weren’t here but he didn’t even listen. Are you ok Lina?

I sighed placing my hand on my forehead.

I’m fine Sharon. I’ll explain everything tomorrow.

“It’s all done.”

Ethan said from the hallway.

Who’s that?

She asked in a high pitched tone.

A friend. I’ll explain tomorrow Sharon. I have to go now.

I hung up before she could drag the topic any further and stood up with my bag safely tucked away under my arm.

“I just hope this won’t create yet another problem.”

I silently prayed.
