After that day,
Mr. and Mrs. Mason called me.
Both of them asked if I was coming back.
I said no way.
I had just barely escaped that place, there
was no way I was going back.
<
When I met Owen for dinner,
He was still bundled up.
I understood, he was pretty recognizable.
I booked a private room.
But of course, I ran into Mason.
He charged over and grabbed my hand.
“Sarah, you actually cheated on me?!”
“I thought you were kidding. I can’t believe you’re having dinner with this guy!”
<
“Who is he?!”
“Mason, are you trying to play the alpha
male?”
I rolled my eyes and then gave Mason a good
pinch on his arm.
When he let go, I pulled Owen back with me.
Mason was crazy.
One time, he trashed my suitcase for no
reason.
Mason’s eyes looked heartbroken.
L
“Sarah, you’re protecting him!”
I was speechless. “Am I going to protect
you?”
“Can you please leave me alone? You’re
exhausting!”
“We’re over, get it? It’s done!”
Mason said through gritted teeth, “Sarah, I’m
not going to let you go. You killed my baby,
you need to give me another one!”
Wow.
I thought I had misheard him.
L
“Mason, if your brain isn’t working, go see a
doctor.”
“Is your fancy security system just for show?”
“Jessica fell, I didn’t have anything to do with
it!”
I gave Mason a knowing look.
“This is like something out of a soap opera.
Jessica is trying to get rid of her problems
and put it on me. Maybe you should
investigate your precious baby mama.
I remembered that Jessica used to trap
people and use them.
<
She had a crazy amount of contacts.
I refuse to believe that she hurt her baby, just
to get back at me.
Mason looked shocked.
I gave him a scoff.
I thought I could finally go home.
But Mason blocked my path, eyes bloodshot,
tears welling up.
“Sarah, come with me right now, and I’ll
forgive your little joke!”
L
I gave him a look of disgust.
“Mason, are you okay? Maybe you should see
a psychiatrist!”
I walked around him, taking Owen with me.
“This place is bad luck, I see all the people I
hate. Let’s go somewhere else.”
Owen agreed.
