My Personal Assistant

I can't leave Like This

Joe's POV

I found Kat walking down the street, a few feet away from the restaurant. I ran to catch up with her and started walking with her.

"Kat, what are you doing? You cannot walk home." I say

Not looking at me and still walking, "Like I told you yesterday, don't worry about me."

I stop her, "Kat, I just broke up with her. I don't want to be with her, I haven't wanted to be with her for a long time. Baby, you got to believe me. It's not what it looks like. She cheated on me, I don't have any feelings for her, you know that. The only reason I hadn't officially broke it off her was because of my daughter. They live in the house with me and honestly, I just didn't know what to do. I'm a coward for not dealing with this when it happened but I was in California, I didn't have to deal with it everyday. And then you were there, making my days better and making me laugh and smile about life in general. Kat, you have to believe me, I wasn't doing this behind your back to be malicious." I say

She just looks at me, "Joe, I'm done." She walks away

I grabbed her arm and turned her around, "Don't. Leave."

"Let go of me." She yanks her arm back.

I exhaled and put my hands up. I couldn't believe she was doing this.

"Kat you're pregnant, just let me take you home." I say

"Joe, please just leave me alone." She says.

"Kat please, I'm sorry I wasn't honest with you from the beginning." I say pleading with her.

She looks at me with a serious look on her face, "It's not only about that, yes you lied and maybe if you would've been honest with me about thisaq, I would've been able to help you with it, maybe I wouldn't be so upset right now but the fact that you purposely kept it a secret hurts my feelings. Then after yesterday, I thought we had an understanding, I thought we were going to move forward and be parents to this baby. I just can't see that happening now. I can't trust you." She says

Getting frustrated, "Damnit Kat, you gotta believe me this time."

"You keep telling me to believe you but I did-"

I cut her off, "Just listen, I was going to break up with her earlier today but then I thought about what you said and I wanted to get her back for what she did to me. I had no clue that she was going to follow me today and fuck everything up like this. You got to believe what I'm telling you, it is the honest truth. When I found out you were pregnant, I knew I had to fix the situation and I told you that yesterday." I say

"So you're trying to tell me this is my fault? I told you months ago that you should've got back at her and you're just now taking my advice? Plus, I was only half serious. I was trying to get you to be with someone else. How did I become part of your plan?" She asks

I take her hand, "Baby, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying, why should I consider her feelings when she didn't consider mine?" I say

"There's a baby involved now, whatever games you were playing before, that's completely fine, but now it's not. I'm pregnant Joe. You know how against this I was, I didn't want you to be a part of this but then we talked and I was going to give you a chance to prove me wrong and to be in our baby's life but now..." she trails off

"Kat don't say that. I'll do whatever you want me to do but don't try to keep me from my kid." I say

"Joe, I don't want anything to do with you. I was going to give you another chance and you blatantly lied to my face. How can I forgive you after I let my guard down and went back on my word? You know I was not trying to be in a committed relationship with you. I'll admit, I got caught up for a while and caught some feelings but I'm over that now." She says.

"So you never loved me, you were just saying it?" I ask, hurt by her words.

She shrugs, "Yeah, pretty much."

I drop her hand, "Wow."

I was so hurt, I was speechless. I didn't know what to say or to think. I started thinking, maybe this really was her intention when we first got together, maybe that is why she never wanted a relationship. She played me, she was never going to stop that plan and I think when she left New York, she had no intention of ever talking to me again. I think her plan is to take this baby and run....

No, what are you thinking Joe she wouldn't do that...Would she?

My phone rings

Looking at the screen, "Kat, let me take this. Please don't walk away."

After a couple of minutes of talking on the phone, I got the news that my company wants me to have a surprise return on Raw this coming Monday.

This just wasn't working out in my favor and I don't know what to do. I feel like everything was happening all at once and I had no control over any of it nor was there anything that I can do to try to prevent anything.

I hung up and put my phone in my pocket. "Fuck!" I shouted.

Taking Kat's hand again, "Look, I got to fly out to Nashville in a couple of days for Raw and I need this to be straightened out. I can't leave like this."

"Joe, that's your problem not mine." She walks off leaving me standing there speechless.

I can't believe this is happening, I cannot believe Galina messed everything up. I was going to get everything straightened out so there wouldn't be any surprises and Kat and I wouldn't have to worry about anything. I just couldn't get far enough ahead of this situation.

I couldn't stand watching her walk away from me. I felt like she was walking away for good and I couldn't help but feel like I wasn't going to see my kid. All I wanted was for her to get in the car and let me take her home so I would know that she was okay. The look in her eyes scared me, she made me feel like I was never going to see her or my baby.

I yell, "Kat you can't do this." She doesn't say anything she just keep walking without turning around.

What do you think about Kat's decision? What do you think Roman is going to do?
