Change Of Life, Me :) [good inspirational books .txt] 📗

me, was that even possible?

She was wearing a red dress that stopped mid-thigh in the front and was dragging on the floor behind her. It had a very deep v-neck and showed a lot of cleavage and she was 100% wearing a push-up bra. She had some tall black heels on along with a Gucci black purse that was to die for. I stood there in awe and she blushed.

“Come on, Kayla. You're faking, right?” she asks me in doubt of herself.

“Damn, mom. You look hot!” I say, “Hotter than me!”

“Don't say it so shocked, honey,” she says and smiles.

“Uh, for your information, I am dressed very appropriately because I'm eating dinner with you, so it would be kinda inappropriate for me to go out looking like, well, you...” I say.

“I'm just joking, baby. Let's go, we're gonna be late if we don't.” she says and runs out the door. She starts the car as I lock the house door and jump into the car. We drive away and to the restaurant.

“So,” Mom starts saying, “We'll be telling you the great news very shortly. But Kayla, honey-” I cut her off.

“Wait a second. We?” I asked slightly annoyed.

“Well, about that...” she says as she parked the car in the restaurant parking lot.

“We're not eating dinner alone, are we?” I asked knowing the answer and she gave me a faint smile. My anger slowly mounted and I raged out of the car to find two men standing just outside our car.

Chapter 5: I think it's time

 

One was about mom's age, maybe a bit younger, and the other, oh my damn, wasn't he hot. He was probably a senior and over rules pretty much every guy in my school on the hot alert meter. Except for my ex, Jake Reese. Dammit, thinking about him is even worse than before. Now I know that he's sleeping with my best friend. Before it was just feelings that still lived inside of me. I hate this. These thoughts made my eyes get watery so I tried to make them dry up my opening my eyes wide and blinked every once in a while. It slowly went away.

So, this really hot guy was staring at me while the other man was staring at Mom. We both stared back. I really wish that I wore something more like Mom. This is pretty much my most appropriate dress I own, not entirely true but, you get what I mean.

Mom and I slowly walked towards the two men. “Kayla, this is Christopher Wingston and his son.” Mom said but stopped her sentence there, she probably didn't know the guy's name.

“It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Kayla. This is my son, Liam.” the man says whose name is apparently Christopher, “Son, this is the lovely Michelle Simons and her beautiful daughter.” he finishes saying.

I could see Mom blushing from Christopher's comment. I flashed Liam a small smile as did he. “Shall we?” Christopher asked.

“Of course, of course.” Mom says as she wraps her arm in his and I walk side by side with Liam. While Mom and Christopher were trying to get our reserved seats, I whispered to Liam, “Hey, do you know why we're here?” I asked low enough for my Mom not to hear me.

“You don't know?” he asks with a shocked look on his face.

“What?” I asked concerned and slightly scared.

“We're getting married.” he says, “You didn't know about our arranged marriage, Kayla Anastasia Simons?” he says and then has a big ass smirk on his face. I was just about to cuss him out but the adults called us over. We followed the waitress to our table and while walking, Liam bent down to, right next to my ear and whispered, “I wouldn't mind if it were true.” and he had another smirk on his pretty ass face.

So let me get this straight, this guy, Liam, is implying that if we were being forced to get married, he wouldn't mind? What the f*ck is this? The 1700s? “So you don't know anything?” I asked him as we sat down at our table and pretended that I didn't hear what he whispered in my ear like 3 seconds ago.

“Sorry, babe. Don't know nothing else.” he whispers as he sits next to me. So he also has horrible grammar... Just hoping he's not anything close to Cooper- no. Stop it. Don't think about him, or Jessica or Jake. Just focus on... focus on the news Mom wants to tell you. Wait a second, in the car, she wait 'we'll be telling you'. Dammit mom. Just tell me already.

We've already finished eating our starters/appetizers and our main course was arriving. I've learned how Mom and Chris met (I've refused to call him Christopher because it's too long), I've also learned that Liam was actually a senior as I expected. The two parents talked mainly about their children whenever it got awkwardly silent. So I also learned that Liam is trying to get into some sport university or something. Where I, on the other hand have no idea what I'm doing with my life.

“So what about you, Kayla?” Chris asks.

“Uh...” I say unsure of what to say.

“Kayla, is unsure of her future.” Mom says to Chris.

“Oh, well, I mean that's okay, Kayla. You still have time to think about it.” he says with a reassuring smile so I send him back the best smile I could get out of this uncomfortable moment. We finished eating our meals in an awkward silence and ordered dessert. Mom and Chris were whispering to each other and giggling, she actually looked kind of nervous but was hiding very well. I am her daughter so I know but I don't think anyone else noticed. I was talking to Liam, well, mostly him talking to me, well mostly him flirting. I mean, I'm obviously used to guys flirting around me all the time but this guy, damn, wasn't he pretty. I mean, the hair, the eyes, the body.

“So you done checking me out?” he asks.

“Uh, excuse me? Are you done flirting?” I replied.

“Babe, if I were flirting we would not be sitting here right now waiting for our desserts.” he says so sure of himself and has a smirk on his face.

“Ugh,” I groan and the desserts arrive. I start to dig in to my delicious chocolatey

dessert.

“Okay, Christopher. I think this is the moment we've been waiting for. We have our desserts so everyone is happy and enjoying it. I think it's time.” Mom says and I am kinda freaking out.

“Okay. Michelle would you like to start or should I?” Chris asks.

“Go ahead,” Mom says.

“Okay, kids?” he starts but was cut off when Liam and I both cut him off and said, “We're not kids.”

“Sorry.” he continues, “Liam, Kayla.” he says as he already has our full attention yet Liam seemed not to care about anything that was happening, “Michelle and I are dating.” he says.

“No kidding./No doubt about that.” Liam and I both say at the same time once again.

“Kayla!/Liam!” my mom yelled at me and Chris at his son. We both gave fake apologetic smiles and they continued talking.

“And... we're all going to be living together!” Chris says and Mom has a big smile on her face to try to get us to smile but no. We both have blank expressions on our faces. “and one more thing,” Chris started saying again.

“I'm pregnant!” Mom yells and that certainly got a reaction out of me.

Chapter 6: You should go take a cold shower now.

“What?!” I yelled as I stood up from my chair. Mom had a shocked and hurt look on her face from my reaction but I felt exactly the same way because of what she just said. I grabbed my purse and ran outside of the restaurant. I sat down on a bench and searched through my bag for my phone. I unlocked it and clicked on Jessica's name but then realised that I couldn't call her. I closed my eyes and placed my phone on my lap. I took deep slow breaths to calm my self down.

“Close your eyes- clench your fists- act like the pain- doesn't exist.- Even though- it's killing you inside- you have no choice- but to put it aside.- Tears like diamonds- eyes like the moon- fake a smile- it'll be over soon.” I whisper to myself with my eyes still closed shut. I memorised this kind of poem/mantra thing. It helps me to not have a freak attack. I go back into the restaurant after a few minutes but go straight to the bathroom without anyone seeing me. I fixed my makeup since a few tears managed to fall. I also fluffed my hair up and took a deep breath which was very unstable from my recent crying.

I straightened up my dress and walked out of the bathroom. Sadly, Liam was standing there. Back against the wall, one leg up and his foot flat on the wall. He turned his head towards me.

“Hey there,” he says.

“Seriously, not in the mood right now.” I say and start to walk away but he grabs my wrist. Why do people keep doing that? But he was also careful not to hurt me. I turned my head to look at him and he spun me around so I was inches away from his body.

“Are you okay?” he says staring into my eyes and I look down at the floor. “Can you just let me go, I wanna go home.” was all I could say.

“No, not until I know that you're okay. Are you okay?” he repeats.

“Yeah, I'm fine.” I say so that he would let go of me but he uses his other hand that wasn't holding me and pushed my
