I pulled off, tears falling from my face. I can't believe David didn't tell me he was married. I can't believe I even fell in love with him. I stopped at a store and stayed in the car.

I looked down at my phone.

I went home and got ready. It's 7:30 right now, so it's okay. I got dressed, did my makeup and sat down.

I walked downstairs and heard a knock at the door

I walked downstairs and heard a knock at the door. I smiled, seeing Jacob.

"Hey Jake" I said. "Hey Rose. You're even more beautiful in person" he said. I smiled and got in the car with him. He drove off and we arrived to an all-you-can-eat buffet.

I took a seat and smiled. I pulled my phone out and seen a message from David. I rolled my eyes.

Damn, I ain't think about it like that. Jacob prolly ain't ready to be a dad. I looked down as I ate, eyes glossy. Do I really want to leave David? I mean yeah, I'm mad at him.

But he's fun and bomb. He's caring and cared more about my body. He cared about my personality and cared to help me find my family.

Does Jacob only care about my body and not like me for my mind and how witty I am? Afterwards, we left and I was so scared. I just wanted to go home.

"Leave me alone" I said. He didn't and grabbed my thigh. I eventually pushed him and took off my seatbelt. I jumped out the moving car and cried in silence.

I pulled out my phone to call David.

I heard phone ring and picked it up. I answered and heard Rose. "David, I'm scared. Can you please come and get me?" She asked me. "What happened?" I asked her.

"I think he tried to rape me. I told him to stop touching me and he wouldn't. I'm so scared, David" she told me. I nodded. "I'm on my way, stay on the line" I told her.

We continued to talk until I got to where she was. She quickly got in the car and hugged me tight in her arms. "Thank you" she said, voice cracking.

I nodded and softly held her before taking off. She covered her face and cried in her hands in embarrassment. "You need to be more careful.

Not everybody loves you for your brains" I softly said to her. "I'm so embarrassed. If I had known that he was gonna do that, I wouldn't have agreed to the stupid date" she said.

"It's not you, it's him. He's the one that didn't want to look at you for your mind, body and soul like I could. You need someone that care about you" I told her.

She nodded and stayed silent. I don't blame her, she's probably rattled and don't want to talk about it. I would be too if I was in her position.
