BAD BOY'S CRAVING - CHAPTER 59&60
“Vinny…”
“My name is Vincent, you have lost the right to call me that!” He said with rage.
Dove’s heart dropped in pain.
“I know you’re mad at me, you have every right to be mad at me, but please listen to me, Vinny,” Dove said, her tears falling down from her eyes.
“Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear when I told you that you lost the right to call me Vinny? You’re the least person I want to see right now, Dove”
Dove felt heartbroken the more, cuz Vincent just called her Dove.
It means he really despises her for what she did.
“You’re calling me Dove now?”
“Why? Isn’t that your name? Or perhaps have you stopped bearing the name Dove?”
“Stop it, Vinny. You’re hurting me!”
“Did you think twice before breaking my heart? You didn’t even consider how I will feel!”
“I made a mistake, Vinny, but I…”
“I don’t want to hear any words from you. Wh@??ver comes out from your mouth is nothing but lies. Get out! Leave me my life!!” Vincent shouts at her and he feels so much pain inside of him.
He hasn’t fully recovered from the operation.
“Vinny” Dove rushed to him, but Vincent stopped her before she could get close to him.
“Don’t even think about it” He said with rage and Dove stopped on her track.
“Don’t come anywhere close to me, else you’d be responsible for my death. I’d rather die than have anything to do with you!”
More tears fall down from her eyes.
Dove was about to say something, when Jovita and Snow entered the room and they became mad when they saw her.
“What the heck are you doing here?” Jovita said.
“I came to see Vinny”
“Why? Do you want to see if he is dead, huh?” Snow asked.
Anyone could feel the hatred Snow has for Dove.
You won’t blame her, the child she raised like her son almost died.
“No, Aunt. I will never wish for Vinny to die” Dove sniffles.
“You will never wish for him to die? Didn’t you almost send him to his early grave?!” Jovita shouts at Dove.
“That’s not true, I made a mistake but I ….”
“Just leave, Dove. I don’t want to see your face, you disgust me” Vincent said.
Dove’s heart shattered, the words Jovita and Snow said to her didn’t sting her like Vincent’s words.
She was affected because the man she loves just said he was disgusted to see her.
“Vinny” She called his name.
“You said you just came here to check up on me, right? Well you can see that I’m fine even after you almost shattered me. Now that you have seen me, leave”
“You heard him, right? Leave!” Jovita yelled, pushing Dove out of the room.
“How are you, Vincent?” Snow asked.
“You shouldn’t have pushed her like that, Jovita. What if she fell and hurt herself?”
Snow and Jovita looked at him with surprise.
“You still care about that bîtch?!”
“She has a name, Jovita”
“Do you still care about that girl?” Snow asked.
Vincent sighed, closing his eyes.
“Have you seen the person who donated his kidney for me?” Vincent asked.
“No we haven’t, the doctor refused to tell us who the person is, so we don’t know the gender of the person who saved your life” Jovita said.
“He’d have shown himself to us, so that we’d compensate him. Why keep his or her identity secret?”
“I dunno. What matters is that you’re safe now. I missed you so much” Snow hugged him.
“I missed you too my handsome cousin” Jovita hugged him.
“Stop hugging me, I’m finding it hard to breathe” He smiled.
“We won’t!”
Charon and Jayden entered the ward.
Jovita and Jayden secretly smiled at each other.
“Welcome back, Vincent”
“Welcome back from the dead, Bad Boy” Jayden said.
Vincent smiled and made a fist bump with his friends.
“About Dove….”
“I don’t want to hear her name” Vincent cut Charon short.
*****
Izzy sits with Dove at the park, trying her best to comfort her.
“With what have happened, you don’t expect him to welcome you back into his arms”
“I just wish he gave me listening ears, Izzy. Jovita and her mom h@?? me, but I’m not bothered by that. What I can’t bear is Vincent hating me. He can’t bear to see me crying, but right now, he doesn’t even care if I cry a river. I just want the man who used to love me back” Dove cries.
“Stop crying, Dove. The Vincent who used to love you will be back, he just needs time”
“How long will it take?”
“I don’t know, but maybe if you tell him you are his kidney donor, his anger might lessen” Izzy said and Dove shook her head.
“I don’t want to tell him”
“But that’s the only way for you to win Vincent back. You almost died!”
“That was the price I had to pay. If I didn’t break his heart, he won’t have been involved in an accident”
“He was the one who misunderstood you, Dove. I’m sure if you reveal yourself as the kidney donor, the hatred Jovita, Aunt Snow and especially Vincent won’t be there anymore”
“I don’t want to use it as a reason why Vinny will have no option than to forgive me. I wronged him and I’m going to continue trying until he forgives me” Dove sniffles.
“Come here, sweetheart” Izzy hugged her, and she began patting her.
“Don’t worry, you’d have his love back”
Dove nodded her head, cleaning her tears.
“How’s your wound?” Izzy asked.
“It’s been one month but I’m still healing after the surgery,” Dove said.
She has a scar in her stomach after donating her kidney to Vincent.
“You should take your medicines, so you can heal quickly”
“Yes mom” Dove said and Izzy smiled.
“Have you been eating so much these days?” Dove asked, observing Izzy’s body.
“Yes I have. It’s unlike me to get hungry, but lately I get hungry easily”
“You should see a doctor, I don’t think it’s normal”
“Will you go with me? I am scared of doctors”
“Fine. I will go with you tomorrow after my work at Jayden’s company”
“Is he still mad at me?”
“Yes he is. If he had his way he’d have stopped me from working as an intern”
“Didn’t he ask why you weren’t working for almost three weeks. You were at the hospital healing after you donated your kidney to Vincent”
“He didn’t say a word, he doesn’t want to talk to me, same with Jovita”
“What about Charon?” Izzy asked.
“I haven’t seen him, he’d ignore me for sure too. Vinny is their best friend”
“Don’t worry, everything will be back to normal, okay”
“I hope so. How are you working on your makeup store”
“Still saving the money. I wish I had a rich boyfriend” Izzy said and Dove smiled.
“Finally I made you smile”
Dove sighed; “I just want Vinny to forgive me. I want to hug and kiss him so badly”
Izzy patted her.
*****
•HOSPITAL, NEXT DAY•
“Relax Izzy, I don’t think it’s something serious” Dove said to Izzy.
Both were waiting for the Doctor’s feedback.
“I can’t calm down, Dove. I h@?? coming to the hospital because I’m scared of doctors. What if she tells me I have a disease or a few months to live?” Izzy panics.
“Stop panicking, nothing like that will happen to you”
Izzy crimps her lips.
The female doctor entered and Izzy’s heart raced to 360° .
“Is my friend doing okay?” Dove asked.
“Where’s her husband?”
“Husband? I don’t have a husband, doctor” Izzy answered.
“Then you must have a boyfriend”
“My friend is single, doctor”
“But how come she is one month and seven days pregnant?”
“Pregnant?!” Dove asked and looked at Izzy with shock.
***
Dove kept looking at Izzy waiting for her to say something.
“I’m waiting, Izzy. How are you pregnant when you don’t have a boyfriend?”
“It’s Charon’s child” Izzy said in a low voice but Dove heard her.
“Charon? Vincent’s friend?”
“Yes”
“How?”
“I made a mistake, Dove. I slept with him twice”
“How did this happen and how come you never told me about it?”
“I was embarrassed to say it to you that I slept with Charon when he wasn’t my boyfriend”
“Then why did you sleep with him?”
“Because I love him!”
“You love Charon?”
“Yes I do, but I’m going to get rid of the baby”
“What?! Why?!”
“What’s the use of keeping this child? Charon doesn’t love me, and he won’t accept a baby made out of a mistake”
“You should at least tell him”
“It’s of no use, Dove. I will get rid of the baby without him knowing”
“He is the father of your unborn child, he has to know!”
“He can’t know about it. I’m trying to forget about my feelings for him, so this baby in my womb can’t be a distraction”
“It’s dangerous to abort a baby,” Dove said, pitifully.
“Life isn’t sweet if you don’t take risks. Charon shouldn’t know about this, okay”
Dove only nodded.

•LOUNGE•
Jayden sits on the sofa going through the sales chat of his books.
He published another web-toon and it’s going viral within just two days it was released.
“Hey, Jayden,” Vincent said, after he entered the lounge.
“What’s up?” Jayden said without looking at Vincent, but when he later did, his phone dropped from his hand.
“What’s with the shocking look?” Vincent asked.
“What happened? Why did you weave your hair? I thought you said you will always keep your hairstyle in fringe?”
“What are you talking about, Jayden? I have always weaved my hair”
“Yes you did, but that was a long time ago. Why did you go back to weaving your hair?”
“I’m back to being myself,” Vincent said and lit up a cigarette.
“Smoking is dangerous for you now, you just got discharged from the hospital. You quit smoking so why are you going back to smoking?”
“I already told you, I’m back to being the bad boy I used to be. What’s the point of changing anyways?”
“Vincent”
Vincent smiled and said; “I’m going to a night club. Do you want to come with me? There are lot of girls with big B-__-bs and aÅ¡Å¡”
“Vincent” Jayden called his name again
“I guess you don’t want to go with me. See you later” He leaves smoking.
“He is back! Vincent is back to his baddie self” Jayden picked up his phone from the ground and called Dove.
*****
Dove quickly arrived at the nightclub.
She could hear the hip hop music booming even if she was outside.
She brought out her phone and texted Charon before entering the nightclub house.
Her eyes kept searching for Vincent inside the club house.
“Common kiss me” The girl Vincent was with said, trying to kiss Vincent, but he resisted.
“I can give you something more than a kiss” Vincent said, naughtily, squeezing her B-__-bs.
The girl Mõ@?s.
“Vinny!” Dove called him and quickly approached him.
She was shocked too when she saw Vincent.
He has changed his hairstyle from fringe to weaving his hair like before, and to top it all, he was smoking, which was dangerous since he just had a surgery.
“Let’s go home, Vinny,” Dove said.
“What home are you talking about?” Vincent asked.
“I know I have wronged you, but please don’t use the anger you feel to do all of this. I love you, Vinny” Dove said.
“You love me? You think I’d believe you? I don’t need your love!”
Tears fell down from her eyes.
“Vinny, I’m telling you the truth. I really do love you”
“I don’t care, take your love somewhere else” Vincent said.
“Do you know her?” The girl who Vincent was with asked.
“She is just a bîtchy girl who wants attention” Vincent said not caring what effect it will have on Dove’s heart.
The girl laughed and held Vincent.
Dove felt jealous seeing how the girl was holding Vincent.
She has never felt so much jealousy like she is doing now.
“You can call me wh@??ver you want, but I love you and you need to stop all of this. Let’s just leave this place, Vinny” She held her hand, but the girl pushed her.
Dove fell and hurt her knee.
“He doesn’t want you, just go away!”
Dove looked at Vincent and when he didn’t say a word, she stood up and left the clubhouse, crying.
“She is finally gone, where did we stop?” The girl asked, but Vincent grabbed her neck.
“What are you doing?”
“Did I ask you to touch her?!” He roared.
“I was just helping you get rid of that bîtch!”
“You have no right to call my Dovey a bîtch!” He pushed her and she landed on the table.
The table broke with her on it.
“No one dares to touch her, understand!” Vincent says and leaves the clubhouse.
He entered his car and placed his head on the steering wheel.
“Why can’t you just stay mad at her? Why do you still care about her? Why?!” Vincent hits his hand on the steering wheel, heartbreakingly.

•NEXT DAY, HOSPITAL•
“Are you sure you want to abort your baby?”
“Yes I am. Is it too late for abortion?” Izzy asked.
“No it’s not”
“Then go ahead, I’m ready”
“What about the man who got you pregnant, does he approve of this abortion?”
“He doesn’t know, and he won’t accept the baby either. He is crazy over someone” Izzy said.
“Alright. I will get everything ready” The doctor stood up and Charon barge in.
He walked briskly to Izzy and took her hand.
“She is not aborting the baby” He took her out of the hospital and he didn’t let go of her until they got out of the hospital.
“You were pregnant and you didn’t tell me about it?”
“What is the point?!”
“That’s my child you’re carrying in your womb!”
“And what if it is your child? What happened between us was a mistake!”
“That doesn’t give you the right to abort my baby!”
“You have no baby, Charon. Do you know how angry my mom will be when she finds out I got pregnant for a boy that’s not my boyfriend? It’s so embarrassing, Charon! I know it’s your baby, you planted him in my womb, but I’m the one who gets to carry the burden and shame and I’m not ready for it. I’m going to abort the baby!” Izzy said and tried to leave, but Charon grabbed her hand.
“I can’t allow you to abort my baby!”
“You’re not my boyfriend so why should I keep the baby?!”
“Marry me”
“What?” Izzy asked, not believing what she just heard from Charon.
“Let’s get married, Izzy”
