Why do the birds go on singing…? Why do the stars glow above…? Don’t they know it’s the end of the world…? The world ended when John lost your love with treason, unable to keep his lustful temptations under control.
It was too late to realize he lost such an important person to him, he took you for granted. Someone he vowed to love till the end of time, yet he broke that vow when he willingly allowed another woman in bed while intoxicated.
Everyone knew that drunk thoughts are sober thoughts… He couldn’t take back what he did; what he did with a new recruit while the entire base gathered for drinks. In the morning he could only stare at his wedding ring that rest on the bedside table near a picture of you.
Just by the tone of his voice when you received a phone call, you knew what he had done and didn’t allow him to explain himself. Unable to speak due to the words being stuck in your throat, you hung up instead. He knew he’d becoming home to an empty house.
He came home nine months later. Such a loving home filled with love and affection, now dead. No sign of life, nothing was out of place not even your clothes were missing. It was as if you vanished, he tried calling your number multiple times. They all went straight to voicemail.
He had to get groceries, and in the process he had seen you… With a baby in your arms? No more then a few weeks, John approached you. When he came face to face with you, he seen the once loving eyes filled with hatred and sadness.
The baby was no doubt John’s child, he wasn’t even aware that you were pregnant. The baby had his bright blue eyes, there was no denying that the child was his blood. He knew he didn’t have the right to be asking questions but he couldn’t believe you had kept his own child from him.
“Gabby… You kept my child a secret from me all these months…? You never thought about telling me? My own child.” He muttered through his clenched jaw. He was having a hard time to conceal his anger.
