Not your typical baby mama-Chapter 255 [Bonus Chapter]I’m Free...
George furrowed his brows. This was starting to bother him. How bad was this Nora? First it was Ian worrying about him and now, the way Stella said her 'good luck'..... Was there something that he didn't know besides the fact that she was bisexual?
The latter did not entertain his worries and quickly dialed for Ian. He answered on the second ring.
"Nephew", she said through gritted teeth.
"Yes, Aunt Nora", he answered, feigning innocence.
"How did Mom find out about my guest?" She said with a squeeze of her hand around her phone. George left to continue cooking and let her deal with him.
"Ah... That? It must have been Stacy. I should have known when she suddenly asked what's new with you", he said with a click of his tongue.
"Ian."
"I know, I didn't expect this of her. I have to get ready for work. Bye."
"IAN!!!"
But the boy knew to hang up before she burst out in her fit of anger. She looked at George who was distracted while cooking. She followed his line of sight to see him openly admiring her milky white mounds that he could see through her nightie.
"Argh!" She shrieked as she run back to her room. "PERVERT!"
He chuckled when he watched her ass jiggle in her red lace underwear as she run.
'My very own walking temptation', he mused as he felt his little brother react. Every worry about her flew out of the window in that moment.
In Albany
Two days later
Per usual, Lorraine had got herself and her brother ready for the day. But what she was not prepared for was seeing Xavier, again, waiting for them by his car. Oliver quickly left her side and run to the back seat after greeting Xavier. She frowned when she saw this and walked to the man.
"You really shouldn't do this", she said in clear disapproval.
"There is really no trouble. Besides, I like spending time with you", he said with a gentle gaze on her.
She looked down, unable to look him in the eyes. She was still frowning though her heart and stomach expressed the flatter. "Xavier, you can't... It's not.... It's..... You shouldn't. Please."
He cupped her right cheek and made her look at him. Her beautiful greens got lost into his hazel brown orbs. She felt like he was hypnotizing her. Not wanting her to look anywhere but into his eyes. There was worry in those eyes. Worry for her.
"Is there something bothering you?" He asked so gently.
Her mouth fell open. The words were right at the tip of her tongue: 'there are bad guys after me and once they see you with me, you won't be spared. I'm worried they'll hurt you.' She wanted to voice it all but her courage in that moment was the size of an ant. Xavier could guess how she was feeling from looking at her face. He decided not to force matters.
"It's okay. Just let me drop you off. I'll feel at ease when I do", he said. She raised her brows in shock at this. The corners of his lips slightly lifted as he caressed her cheek with his thumb. "Yes, I worry about you."
Lorraine found herself being escorted to the car. Oliver shook his head when he saw his sister wavering. The little man desperately wished Xavier could be the person to help and protect her. He felt bad that she had to shoulder everything because she was older while he couldn't do anything except let her protect him. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
Xavier finally settled in his seat. He looked at her and was about to lean forward when she quickly pulled on her seatbelt. He chuckled as he pressed start and drove off.
"Xavier, can I ask you something?" Oliver started.
"Sure", he answered as he looked at him through the mirror before looking back ahead.
"Do you like watching games?"
"Of course. Do you want to watch one with me?"
"Um... Not exactly. We have a game in two weeks and....."
"Of course", he answered with no hesitation then looked at Lorraine. "If your sister is okay with it."
They both looked at her with expectant gazes. It looked like their hopes and dreams would be crashed if she turned them down. However, she was still worried about their current situation. It was great Oliver was warming up to Xavier, a man to look up to, but still.....
To her luck, her phone ringing saved her from the situation. However, she fell frozen, unable to answer. Oliver grew worried when he saw her react that way. She always ignored calls from that person.
"Is it-"
"Savannah", She cut Oliver off and said in disbelief.
Xavier was curious about this person seeing her react that way. But why did this name sound so familiar? Where had he heard this name before?
"Savannah?" Oliver voiced his shock. "She's back?"
'She's back? Savannah.... Savannah.... Oh! Savannah! Hold on!' Xavier mused before he looked at the caller ID then back at Lorraine's face that had tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Savannah White?" He asked in confirmation the same time she decided to answer the call.
"Savannah!!!" She answered a little hastily with her heart thumping hard.
She wished it was not a dream. Her friend, who had been missing for months, was finally calling her. Gosh! It better not be a prank. However, the other end was silent. She looked at the phone before bringing it back to her ear when she saw the seconds still running.
"Savannah?" She called out again. Xavier was beginning to worry now.
"Lorraine", Savannah responded and broke down into heart breaking sobs that triggered Lorraine's cries.
"Savannah! Oh thank God! Where are you? I'll come to you right now! Is everyone with you? Is everyone okay? Seriously, tell me where you are!"
The girl only cried in response. Where could she even begin? She had a lot to say but one thing she just had to utter, "I'm finally free."
