Chapter 8
Joey wandered around the Bing's apartment, looking for the couple. "Anyone here?" He yelled. Monica opened the bedroom door and walked out. Her eyes we red and puffy, it was obvious she had been crying. Joey's wide grin fell as he looked at her.
"Mon, what's wrong?" He had a look of concern on his face. "Is it Chandler?" He asked.
"No, it's me...." Monica looked down at the floor, she couldn't face Joey.
"Are you ok?" Joey wrapped his arms around his friend.
"No, I did something terrible" She said, pulling away from Joey's embrace. "I.....cheated on Chandler" Joey stood there dumbfounded, thinking of what to say, but he couldn't...he didn't think there was anything he could say to make this all go away.
"Does he know?" Joey finally managed to get out. He was staring out the window, he couldn't look at Monica. She shook her head.
"No he doesn't" She noticed Joey was staring out the window, and glanced over there too. She saw her husband bouncing their niece on his knee and laughing. That was the way it was suppose to be. Their perfect world had crashed, and although she hated to admit it, she knew in her heart that it was over. Monica took her eyes away from the window and saw that Joey had left. She sighed and walked back into her room.
*******************************
Joey had completely forgot about everything, about his audition, and his child. All he could focus on was Monica and Chandler. He wanted things to be ok. He wanted her to take back what she did. The telephone rang, interrupting Joey's thoughts. He answered it hesitantly hoping it wasn't Chandler, he was afraid he might let it slip, and like Ross, he didn't want to be the one to tell Chandler.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Tribbiani?" A man on the other end asked.
"Yeah this is him" Joey said.
"This is Dr. Martin....I'm afraid I have some bad news...."
Joey swallowed hard. "What is it?" He asked.
"Ms. Smith is dead...." Joey's heart sank. "She doesn't have any family that we can contact, so if you don't take your child we'll have to put him up for adoption."
Joey didn't think twice "I'll take him" He said. "I'll come down and get him now...." Joey hung up the phone and left to get his son....
