Lahat ng Kabanata ng HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Coraline's POVIt was past 8 and Elijah wasn't back yet, it wasn't that I was waiting for him to return but it was past time for dinner and I was starving, I crept out of the room two hours ago and went to the kitchen, the refrigerator was stuffed with food but I contemplated If I should take some food or not. Elijah was a smart man, he might realize that something was missing from the refrigerator. I closed the door and just grabbed an apple from the fruit tray. I would have to make do with a piece of fruit for now. I stayed in the living room until I heard the gates opening, I quickly rearranged the room and ran upstairs to my room. I lay in bed and counted the minutes until Elijah would come to see me, it would take another thirty to an hour for him to get changed, heat the food, and come upstairs. I busied myself scrolling through my Kindle, tricking my mind to think I was reading. After what seemed like an eternity, there was a quick rap on the door, I got myself into position

Coraline's POVI did not go to work the next day like I had said I would, nor did I go the day after. I laid in bed all day wondering if I was doing the right thing by wanting to get on with my life or if I should still be mourning my dead child. A week rolled over and on Monday I was tired of my little pity party, I got dressed and went downstairs to prepare breakfast for Becca and I, when I was done with that, I woke Becca up, bathed her, and got her ready for daycare. We were eating breakfast when Elijah walked down, dressed impeccably in a charcoal designer suit, his hair was slicked back and he looked ready to dominate the boardroom, so basically the way he looked every morning. He stopped in his tracks when he saw the way I was dressed, his eyes were slightly widened and his body was stiff, " you going somewhere?" He asked.I wiped the crumbs of eggs from Becca's face before responding, " Oh yeah, I'm going to work. It's Monday and I know the cafe is going to be very busy, Mei

Elijah's POVWhat gave her the right to think that I didn't mourn my child? I loved that baby, I didn't get to know them, I didn't get to hold them, I didn't even get to see them but I loved them with all my heart. Fuck Coraline for thinking that about me, what had she expected me to do when she had hit rock bottom, to hit rock bottom as well. I had to be strong for her, I had to be strong for Becca. Hell, being strong was the only thing I knew how to do. I couldn't stand her right now, I couldn't stand to be in this house with her, I needed to get out. I left the house and got into my car, I called Tyler first but he didn't pick and I decided against calling him a second time, he was going to be a dad soon, and he didn't need to deal with my bullshit, I needed to call someone I could get shitfaced drunk with and they would be down for more drinks.I called Kia, we weren't what I would call best friends but I knew if push came to shove, he would have my back for anything and everyth

Coraline's POV"How come Becca's here and not at daycare? Also, why were you late? It's so unlike you." Mei asked as we took our lunch break in her office.I sighed and gave Mei an 'I wish you didn't ask that question look', " Girl, it's a long long story." I sat down and waved Becca over to eat with us. I had left the house past 9 and knew there was no way I was going to drop Becca off at daycare without being gossiped by her teachers.Becca rushed over, sat next to me, took her plate filled with food, and began to eat. Lord, the child ate with gusto, you would think I hadn't fed her in a week."Cora, come on, tell me what happened. This is so unlike you, you're never late anywhere. I'm the latecomer." She patted her chest. I groaned and hid my face in my hands, God, this babe was forcing these words out of my mouth."Ok fine, I was drunk last night. Me and you know who, had an argument, and I was frustrated so I drank till I was blackface drunk and so I woke up late." I shoved some

Coraline's POVThe drive to Warren Multimedia was a long and tiring one. I stupidly believed that I could navigate the journey without using the GPS since it was a big and popular company but ended up getting us lost. I eventually made use of the GPS and we arrived at the company. Becca was antsy in her car seat and I could understand why, the poor girl just wanted to take a bath and rest after a long day at daycare. I unbuckled the seatbelt and helped her out of the car then I locked up and we trudged to the rotating door of the company.The moment my feet touched the tiled floor of the reception, I knew I had been teleported to another dimension and I didn't belong there. Men and women worked around dressed impeccably, looking like they had just stepped out of a magazine. They moved around comfortably and efficiently like they were made to be that way, I looked down at Becca and could see the excitement and amazement in her eyes, she was itching to let go of my hand and explore th
