The first month was the worst. It was when he was at his peak when it came to Media attention. Everyone and everything knew what he was then because it was all that was ever talked about. Did you see his stellar performance or did you see the Japanese dragon he got on his back from the most famed Japanese tattoo artist of all time. Everything was about him. It was hard because I struggled, struggled to erase the memories of that night. It kept playing over and over and over like a broken record player.

230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2Ns7E4fTM
“This month has been peaceful with bang boy away”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNb91RbHGH
She falls onto the couch and smiles
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8VSSIiLW5
“So comfy”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymS3I7JZcQ
“Glad you like it”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILCOAJVPMN
After the first month those teasingly weeks until his arrival made me happy. I was happy to escape what I have made unprofessional and tainted. Tainted with what I swore never to do. But then something I never expected happened
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AkXP6dmJa
“Huh that’s weird”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30cXxEyHJB
Merriam hands me some pads and I take it
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcqSpE9V2y
“What”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCg1L8Ed3H
“Well my period is late”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kTpgrD231
She looks at me and my heart drops
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzN4ig6t3L
“It’s late”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIavArrlyjV
I repeat this over and over again before letting out a screeching scream
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljZHHgAdZ1
“NO”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGKXAaKaSU
Me and Merriam rush to the pharmacy and pick up a pregnancy test. I can’t have this happen, I can’t be pregnant there is no way. Once we Enter the penthouse I make a beeline for the bathroom and rip open the pregnancy test. After I pee on the stick I leave the bathroom and crouch down crying
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReV7jSqXCZ
“I can’t Merriam I can’t be pregnant”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyBrzZLGog
She walks into the bathroom and picks up the stick
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOUxEhCwMk
“I-“
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlNmBkyXwj
She walks toward me solemnly and bends down. In her face I can see her deepest of sympathies as I grab the stick and look
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DQ1t0KdXQ
Pregnant
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVb2p9ltQAy
I felt my soul rip from me as I lay down and cry. Merriam brushes my hair from my face as the past two days has been spent crying in my house and at work. I never thought about it but the memories of me eating and throwing up especially pop up now. Merriam will make different foods for me thinking that Ryder must have made contact with papa legba and sent me a baby since he is sometimes viewed as a fertility god.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZi0t8FMoY
“I doubt Ryder knows who papa legba is Merriam”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViZKBx4ZWM
She stirs the soup
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLsDqlDJ86
“You don’t know it’s hollywood after all. Now drink so you can get this baby out”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ibXclyOLh
After a week of throwing up my throat was sore and my mind was soo hazy. I know I have to tell Ryder and see what we do from here but the thought of that convo alone scares me. I sweep the floor and feel the urge to throw up but I try to hold it in
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv4mrm31j1
“GIRL HES COMING”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjMsmrVt9p
Merriam throws away all her plans about how to get rid of the baby brung by papa legba in the garbage and I prepare myself for seeing his face again. I hear the keys enter the lock and my body tenses as each agonizing seconds leads me closer and closer to seeing him again
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY0O9atXVF
“Hayyy maidsss”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHPJWL7C3s
A woman enters and it’s the same one he left with on tour. She smiles and gets closer to us
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxYiNI0kWt
“Ladies we will be having a party today”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3CgDuo08H
She rambles on and on but pregnancy brain is making me forget all of what she was saying
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRTcYLKKWj
“Huh”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2hJQNQEGG
Merriam laughs out loud and the lady looks dumbfounded
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ouWkWjwsR
“What you mean huh I said we will have a small party today so please make this place look like a marble beauty” she walks away and my eyes catch Ryder coming in. I can see the stubble across his face and also his hair now touching his upper back as he walks in with a suitcase.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gDihUOvvS
“Get these washed”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYZwZqhJ97
Merriam nods yes and drags his luggage away. We exchange a look then I turn away
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvKPMu1Dgw
“Make me a smoothie”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvjWOGiaA5
I nod okay and walk to the make him the regular. I hand it to him and go to walk away
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw3ZOBdKrE
“Stay we need to talk about your resignation”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpD1ZeJvSa
I walk back
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQh0d2FyvB
“I have collected the papers. I have signed them and will be mailed off today. They won’t know the real reason other than familial matters so relax”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6aNZAuTEz
I nod alright. Shit I have to pee
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPmQ9IMSHi
“I have to pee now”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FI1tfZZtj
I rush to the bathroom and pee then come back out and see him still sitting.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6EMrG82Da
“I’m sorry please continue”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5enjNLPb9
He nods okay
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb1pGllLyh
“Well I will send them off tonight but for now we are having 3 guest come in. Candlelit dinner is what I’m going after”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKrwkEUfMO
I have to tell him now
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3Vpe42T6s
“Ryder I need to tell you something”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFxut5JC5m

“I’m-“
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKDNYQV5ub
“ENGAGED YESSS”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88KSnFd6A5
The woman comes back out interrupting me and flings herself to Ryder. Merriam’s face screams don’t tell
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFnFhagTra
“Me and Ryder are happily engaged so I’m happy and hopeful of our marvelous future”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfyd5hM9g1
FUCK
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkuh0kFTFF
I rush to the sink and throw up. Merriam rushes to my side
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9Et4wyIPU
“What the fuck”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk775TjOwWY
The lady walks to me and turns on the sink
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsArqBSzFmd
“My gosh a better response then puking to my engagement would’ve been way better”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x86VADYPn
“I’m sorry”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8097ZOrFCA
I wipe my mouth with a napkin and Ryder looks at me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY44yw8AMI
“Upset stomach”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE4Rwafe9Z
“For how long”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxM05J41AgI
Ryder stands up and stands near the woman. His eyes dim as he glares at me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu324Q6Qmj2
“Since yesterday. I have been eating soup”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHVr46JaTK
“Eat more. Merriam make us all a nice soup”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjonZCIn0p
She nods okay and I sit on the far end as the others sit on the opposite end. He’s engaged to her, I mean it’s not like she’s a better choice then most women in Hollywood but if I was to keep the baby, she would be in its life. And from the looks of it that might be a bad idea.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKXetgXeHc
“So I was planning of a beach wedding”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH95vD70vhL
The lady shoves a magazine in front of me and points to the wedding a latest celebrity had.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5w25XK36b
“Looks nice”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJTmVpAYAf
She smiles and shows me her ring
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUmGpZVHRA
“24 karat diamond ring from monteque. I know it was a pretty penny to purchase”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqXlRkSWNk

230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28DWOOqB3b
“Psst”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz5sYqAjfn
Merriam hands me soup and whispers in my ear
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNK9NwKQjr
“He looks like he’s encountered papa legba”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Mab05jRTl
I quickly look at Ryder and see his regular unfazed face
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OSktRb1na
“I doubt that Merriam. Stop being paranoid”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiEPQ8KQYr
“What, can’t I as a proud Haitian woman tell you when I know a person has encountered an Iwa”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLZNwwWtFd
We both look at him then look away
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSqHKKMkRn
“Merriam keep your conspiracy theories on the low for now”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA05NzeXhdx
She shakes her head okay and eats her soup
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqO9dGp1PB
“By the way what did you have to tell me Sam”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6lc3a0TBs
I swallow my soup down hard as Ryder focuses on me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ088S9ojv36
“Nothing really”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2wOc8PtfY
“Alright then”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIqstoOH9V
He stands up and offers the woman a hand up
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5WU9jEVlO
“Although she introduced herself to you guys she hasn’t said her name. Maids meet Natasha. She’s my fiancé”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi8BujjAUL
We wave hi and Natasha waves back eagerly
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqeTjFhXuF
“Hi maids I’m so happy to be here”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjXHtHjnFw
They walk to the window to chat and I massage my temples
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiSni0SSZP
“Of all the fishes in the sea he choose a chatty one”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SDNk3iNe5
Merriam sits next to me and hands me another bowl of soup
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF0laLqgq4
“At least he looks content”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoBm9WUXcL
My phone rings in my pocket and I smile as I see James
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGfgqPkgNQ
“James”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhLgCZ9Pb9
“Sam”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAlkcK2oLM

230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgCgRFPAy6
“James you haven’t spoken to me in a while. what the hell”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8yYPlMQXI
“I know”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1kdB6v16z
“NO YOU DONT KNOW BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaiPU4kSex
I control my anger and feel my sadness start set in
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5JTKwXu3u
“I’m sorry Sam I really am-“
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8fZALNQtE
“No your not”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCGF2oufwC
I sob on the phone and sit down
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrekp5GEhS2
“Sam I wanted to tell you that I’m back in town”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZtZOpWMJh
“Really”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS9X9qLIzu
Like a dog my ears perk as happiness floods in
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4SamtPuN7
“Woah talk about a change in moods”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdYm4UT91r
I smile embarrassingly. Must be the pregnancy hormones
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh6ymOBHEW
“I’m sorry”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEE93q4QIq
“It’s alright. I know every Friday you leave early so when you do please change and meet me “
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mf3e3KDTK

230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVSnPx9klV
“You got my word. So how about tomorrow”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi6bPkjRIz
I smile
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5jB81GLZN
“Yeah”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YM8kRfeMc
“Alright I think you have to get going so bye”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDK8EPExpv
“Bye James”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwIzqth6fm
I hang up and walk inside the apartment to see Merriam and Natasha arguing
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0STt0DS1S
“MARBLE WILL MAKE YOU LOOK UGLY CHOOSE BLACK”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZEsls5Rdi
“BLACK WONT GO WELL WITH MY LIMITED EDITION GUCCI CULTURE”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZckpLG24E
“THEN EAT OUT THEN”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj3d7yqn8K
“FINE”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIJQ7FiwvH
I slowly close the door behind me and Merriam spots me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR0HFVARDs
“SAM”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nm7FqmzWZ
She storms at me and holds grips my shoulder
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliU1CxwJMW
“Does marble go with Gucci culture or the MARVELOUS BLACK”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MEMCd6KeT
I can see Natasha follow too and she pushes Merriam aside to speak to me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlZvPjHU49
“NO MAID. I think Gucci culture goes well with the MARVELOUS MARBLE”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZc3uV0odF
They stare each other down but my mind is focused on the bathroom. If I get there quick I might be able to pee
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmTUkAGdQb
“We’ll make what is it”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ71VmWhGW8
I look back at Natasha
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8zTBPQ5y2
“I think you should eat out”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hlbPs2LdJ
“TOLD YA”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAs1tKyBV0
They continue arguing and I run the bathroom to pee. Once I get out I see Ryder listening in on Natasha and Merriam. I take this time to place my gloves on and clean the penthouse door. I grab the bucket and slyly make my way to the apartment hallway and close the door. I take a deep breath in and start scrubbing with a scented detergent
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOF1snKtDh
“Trying to escape the arguing”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwFweJt9ra
The door opens and I look up to see Ryder. He closes it behind him and leans his back on the wall as I clean
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7eDeTz3uG
“Not really I just need to do my job”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ2r3w7CAp
I scrub all around the doorknob and bell
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20UtOpI8n4
“Your a weird one”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwbi9CNQxL
Ryder grabs the rag from my hand
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AKVmqcC8B
“Now let’s have a real conversation about what happened a month and a half ago”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w6x4rynZD
Petrified I grab the rag back and turn away from him
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2wMcVT74v
“There’s no need”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88JWkYzqKz
I get in all the nooks and crannies of the door as the memories of such night start to reappear. The last thing I need right now is to be triggered from such Events.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6QETpV48F
“Why not, it is the reason why your resigning”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k1Bl3DUqb
I place the rag down
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHcBtXlCBE
“Fine”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SGRmz9wNR
We sit on the windowsill and observe the bustling street life from above
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHusn5c2F5
“What happened that nice was a drunken mistake. I was upset about that man giving my dog some whiskey and cried. Everything I held in I cried and drank. You happened to be there so things happened to happen”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDdewHdDUu
I steer clear from Ryders eyes as I glance at the tall skyscrapers reflecting the suns light
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C1dGuRJK8
“So did you mean what you told me when you told me to admit that I hated my life”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66PoiVsizz
I sheepishly look away as I feel my face flush
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvfzO0bNek
“Yes. When your drunk don’t you always speak the truth”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfubNOC2eIZ
Ryder looks onward at me and shrugs
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJeXPaBfPz
“That is for me to know and you to never find out”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFzRy67B2r
I stand up and stroll towards the bucket and squat
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSVISjKn1s
“Well mister Ryder I must clean the door. Please don’t think I’m cutting our conversation short”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4Rjnc7ikW
Ryder sits up and walks towards the elevator
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpML1O2vEm
“No need for proper talk Sam I know that doesn’t suit you well”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EL7HIYeEP
He enters the elevator and I ignore his words. All because I talk normal he thinks that proper behavior doesn’t suit me. I swear rich people and their fucking antics. After a while of cleaning and making sure Merriam and Natasha doesn’t rip their throats out Ryder decided that it’s best we go home
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99sCD3g0Jn
“I will send you each an outfit to wear for tonight’s outing. Most likely you will be photographed. For now you will pretend to be my fiancés friend”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wRVrnY1eu
We nod okay and I walk towards the train and go home. One I enter home I hear chubs wonder barking as he runs to me and jumps up. I lift him up and gently place him on the couch
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWacCWUQZmJ
“Alright chubs no barking alright”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gQ4etUYw7
I look at the pile of envelopes on the small table and pick them up. Ah yes more envelopes telling me my rent is due. I place the envelopes down and in my mirror I lift my shirt up.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOmGadCaCu
“Alright so I’m 7 weeks along”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuzvpKhnSY
I look for any sign of a bump but then again I’m chubby so a bump can be mistaken for some fat. I hear a knock on the door and when I open it I see a kind man holding a bag
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBOPRYiRqq
“For you”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s2lC7DxGV
I slip him five bucks then close the door. when I open the bag I see a long black backless dress with a note inside.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEhXCU3ysv
For you from Me
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKG0nZz438
I smile to myself and shake the bag, when I do a book falls out
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBfrpKDqjI
“Hmm”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdP7g5ZfD8G
I grab the book and read the title
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCNCskoBNS
Evergreens love galore
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBdW7Qw4CU
I read the back and I find myself smiling harder. This must be a sequel to secretive enchantment. In this sequel this girl and man live together in the castle and something happens to the girl. Forced to keep a secret she must choose between happiness or devastation.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIsurqvK9j
“What a cornball”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgDjJMQk3k
I place the book down on the table and go to shower. After I shower I check the time and I rush as I’m suppose to meet up at the restaurant in 10 minutes. Time flies when your worrying about pregnancy, dresses and books. I blow dry and curl my hair as quickly as I can then place the dress on slowly to not rip it
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVg2CqDFSgp
“Of course he chose this dress look how tight it looks”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1Bxz1L1tN
I examine the dress on me as and notice that my bust was bigger then before and sorer too. Ugh I can’t worry about that now and hopefully this won’t affect me never. I rush out the house and walk to a car that Ryder has sent out for me. I feel my nausea start to boil over so I crack open the window to feel the fresh air as we drive. These heels are abusing my toes but you know what I gotta deal with it.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURHWJqF6Fn
“RYDER RYDER”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDy01XLgIS
The screams of rabid people fill my ears as multiple flashing lights blind the entrance of the restaurant. I can see Ryder and Natasha interlocking arms as they enter the restaurant. His Pr team must have tipped the paparazzi here. I soon get out of the car and hear Merriam’s voice in the distance
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekifQTfnWT
“SAM”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdfCbgXlSB
She runs to me and then stops.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIydeJwql8L
“You didn’t go inside yet”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6xnrbchrX
She shakes her head no and takes a deep breath in and out
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW80tJsDg2
“You see how much paparazzi is there. The reason they are here because this has been known to be a celebrity hotspot only every Friday. Fancy as hell I know but really I bet they serve food that are very small in portion. It’s like you pay a thousand for a nibble”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEOz1WbQKa
We walk into the restaurant and the bouncer stops us
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2oajhImGn
“Who’s your connection”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToWbH09ezw
“Ryder”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBaRaVGHwB
The bouncer checks the list
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZazPui1a5
“Names”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORtWhCUiNU
“Sam and Merriam”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqyD5iJ5Kv
He nods okay and we enter inside. The smell of seafood and candles swarm the place as soft and warm instrumentals play in the background. The view of the Hudson River and the skylight illuminate the place as it’s dim in nature. We make our way through the chatty crowds to the balcony upstairs where it is lined up with other wealthy people who can afford such luxury. Natasha waves us over and we make our presence known.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVUz41ZK76
“Look nice maids”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gMCKCgXZZ
Ryder takes his eyes off the menu and looks up at me and for a second I swear I can see something other than a distant stare. For a second in his eyes I can sense some what of a soft look, It’s as if he was staring at a puppy
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkpNFuyeLM
“Sit ladies”
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LVXyuhVd1
We all sit down in the round glass table and we pick up the menus. I glance over the menu and so far I see far more caviar dishes then anything of real substance. The only thing I see there that really peeks my interest is a seafood boil.
230Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4IhQUzP1n
