Staying Safe

“How was your appointment? Did you like the…doctor?” Veronica seemed to be getting ready for her class. And, I walked to my bed and took two long breaths before nodding my head in yes. “She seems good. And, she didn’t even take the fee. So, yea…but I hope I could pay.”

“Stop worrying about it for once. Christine is super awesome. She won’t even mind having you on tea every evening. She…” Veronica trailed off getting her shoes. “…was a teenage mother. Helping out pregnant ladies is her passion. And, the most important thing right now is to keep you hidden until your husband stops looking for you.” She didn’t look at me and was busy tying her sneakers. She was a tall girl with red hair and madly in love with David. I couldn’t help but wonder what these two weeks would be like for everyone at the mansion.

“David is coming to see me today. I hope he has some good news. I would still ask you to go to the police but if…you think you shouldn’t it's fine…” And before she could say something else our door was knocked. Her classmate was here to take her. Everyone was told that I was her cousin and came to see her for a few days. Veronica’s roommate was always at her boyfriend’s and didn’t use this room much. Veronica told her that I am her cousin and will be staying for a few days. She didn’t have any issues.

Veronica and her friend left and I couldn’t help but worry how I will raise my baby if I have to hide my identity all the time. For one, David, Veronica and I were sure that Matteo will never look into a university. We were lucky that Matteo bought David’s lie. He believes that David left me at the airport and doesn’t know about my whereabouts since then. Of course, he trusted the route of his car more than David. But still, David was doing everything he could. He and Veronica never talked about me on their call. They only met once in person and this is only when I get to know that Matteo had left for the US to look after some things regarding the companies still under his father’s control.

I got up from my place and went to look at my clothes in the closet. I hope I could resell them for a good price. I had talked about this to Veronica but she thinks getting these limited editions online will let Matteo track me if he has hired some professional to look for me. So, she would try to talk with friends to spread the words and see if we can sell them.

I opened my bag and took the vitamins Dr Christine offered me. The doctor I went to see today was a professor in the university and had her residence on the premises of the university. She had asked me to see her in two days so she could run an ultrasound. The professor didn’t ask me many questions and I was thankful for that.

 Don’t think about him, Julie. You have taken the right decision. If you were there you won’t be having your baby with you here.

In the evening I got out to sit on the bench outside the hostel. I could spot some boys playing football on the field at my left. And, some other girls were standing near a small cafeteria. “Julie?” I heard Veronica calling me and looked at my back. She jumped over the bench and came to sit beside me.

“I…met David.” Her serious face was enough to tell me that there was something wrong.

“What happened?” I asked while all I could recall was Matteo’s pissed face.

“Well, the whole staff is told that you are found and were at your family. And, now you and Matteo are living in the US.”

“What? What is he trying to do?” I wonder and Veronica shrugged her shoulders.

“From where I see…he knows that you don’t intend to come out. He is manipulating everyone and he can do this because you are helping him. Come out…show everyone that he was abusive to you. I am sure you can manage to stand up against him. I don’t know what’s so hard about this…” Somewhere I lost what she was saying.

All I could only recall was his eyes. I knew what he was trying to do. He was looking for me. He was annoyed and enraged that he couldn’t find me in the last two weeks. My step bruised his ego and he went to the extent where he is lying to most of his staff so they don’t see him as helpless.

“…what are you thinking? Let’s go to the police station.”  I gasped looking at her.

“I…I…I will do it, Veronica. I will do just as you are telling me but let me…let me bring this child into this world. You…I can’t explain to you how important bringing this child into this world is. So, once it’s here. I think…I think I will do something about my social status.”

“What about your social status?” She asked with a confused look.

“I mean…I can’t continue hiding or…stay his wife.” I don’t know why the last part came out as a whisper. I still couldn’t believe that I took this step of running away.

“Woah…” She raised her brows before starting.

“…And, how you will survive. I mean…I don’t mind helping you but…”

“No…I was thinking if you can find me a job on the premises. I swear I will just take on any job. Also, did you talk to anyone about the dresses?” She shook her head at my words.

“No, I don’t think it will be profitable. You should sell those dresses when…you are going to come out. I am sure they are expensive and will help you better if we tried to find real buyers.” And, that worried me.

I looked ahead wondering what to do to pass these months. I have thought about contacting my friends or Rachael but all these times I know they must be under observation. Even David was sure that he was still a suspect because he was the last person I interacted with. Taking a long breath I looked at the grey sky. At least, Matteo is not in Italy right now.

“Julie…I think I read this cafeteria was looking for someone. Should I talk to them?” I looked at her before looking at the cafeteria.

“I…don’t have any ID. I mean I have my passport but…”

“You have a US passport. If not this we will figure out something else. Now, let’s give it a try.” I started walking beside her. I did want to get back to the US. I missed my place. But then keeping my baby safe was my priority. It doesn’t matter at what patch of earth I build my life as long as I get to provide my baby everything it deserves.
