A Favor

"Angela, I am going to find him for you. Bring him back so you guys can talk threw everything. Get back on the same page. And so you can tell him about the baby."

"No, Chiz don't. I told you I never want to see him again."

"Angela, I understand why you feel like this. Yes, he pulled a stupid move without talking to you first but if he comes back you must show him you still care and have love for him."

"But-."

"No Angela. I can see it in your eyes that you still love him so don't tell me anything different.

"You right. I do still love him but. Right know I'm just…just so pissed at him for leaving me like this."

"That's ok, Angela. It is ok to be mad at him. He left you hear alone, unprotected. Your just scared," he paused but continued seconds later, "I will leave tomorrow night. As of right now we need to take you somewhere safe. If word gets out about you being pregnant while I am gone I want someone to be able to protect you."

"But where will I go?"

"Just get dressed. I am going to take you to a friend of mine. I don't think he will mind."

"But-."

"No Angela, no buts. Please just get dressed."

"I was just going to ask you to leave the room," I said with a little giggle.

"Oh, I am terrible sorry. Please forgive me," he said as he left the room and shut the door behind him.

And as soon as he was gone I got out of bed and threw on a pair of blue boot cut jeans with a white empire waist top. I threw my messy hair up into a bun and took of the makeup that ran down my checks.

I was happy that Chiz was here but at the same time I wasn't. I just wanted to be left alone but I am glad he cares so much for me. I mean he doesn't have to. To him I am just another stupid human. I mean when Don first introduced us he didn't really take any notice that I existed but over the past couple of months he grew to like me.

"Are you dressed yet," Chiz asked from the other side of the bedroom door?

"Yes," I replied as I opened it.

"Great then let's go," he said as he pointed to the front door.

When we got outside and over to his red Chevy truck I jump into the passage seat and buckle up.

"So how far does your friend live," I asked after a couple minutes of silence?

"Just two towns over. It should only take fifteen minutes to get there," he replied.

"Are you sure he will let me stay with him?"

"Yes," he said as he looked over at me and gave me a look saying he promised.

The rest of the drive was silent. I just stared out the window thinking of what I was going to say when Don came back. Could I even face him? I still love him but can I trust him not to run away from his fears for a second time? I had no idea. I guess I just had to trust that he wouldn't.

When we reached the house Chiz opened my car door and I got out of the car. We walked up the steps towards the house and I stood behind him as he rang the doorbell. The door opened seconds later.

"Oh, hey old buddy," the man smiled.

"Hey Dick, can we come in I have a favor to ask you," asked Chiz?


OOO WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT?
