Petra's POV
After I finished my work, I feel really tired and sleepy. I stretched my body, letting a moan escaped when the kinks on my body stretched. My phone rang on my table, I reached into it lazily with a yawn before looking at the ID caller.
"Daryl, hello?"
"Hey, baby." Daryl purred, "I love you, Petra. I dont know what will I do without you!" He slurred and I figured that he's drunk. "You love me right?" He asked, worry laced his voice and I frowned before answering.
"Of course I love you, Dar. Are you o-" He cuts me off.
"Oh shit! I'm over the fucking moon when you said it back!"
"Daryl are you okay? Where are your friends? You're taking the cab right?" I asked, worried.
"I brought my jeep and I'll-"
"No, you're not going to drive all drunk! I'll pick you up, what club?" I asked, getting ready and putting my shoes on.
"No need baby. I met my friend at the club and hang out at their house while getting drunk!" He said and laughed loudly. "I'll stay the night here. Just want to call you to know that you love me." He laughed again, a burp following after. I laughed at that although I feel a bit worried. It's not the first time he called me when he's drunk, but he never told me these thing. He never sounds anxious like this, like he expect me to not say the 'I love you' back.
Well, there's nothing he needs to worry about because I love him. He's always by my side through my up and down.
"You sure you dont want me to pick you up?" I asked for reassuring.
"No, I'm sleepy." Again a big burp left his mouth before he loudly yawn and I heard nothing after that.
Thinking he's asleep now, I hang up and get my shoes off again. Changing into my pajama, I jump onto my comfy bed and let my eyes closed. Even though Daryl's call still lingering on my mind, I managed to fall asleep.

The next morning, I walked down the stairs for breakfast. I greeted Katherine and Jack that already on the table.
"What time you're off from work?" Katherine asked me, taking a bite from her sandwich while I stirred my cereal. Weird, I know, it's just a habit of mine to stir my cereal.
"Oh, I think I'll be here by seven. What's wrong, Kat?" I answered before asking her back. I get a spoonful of my fruity pebbles and shoved it in my mouth.
"There's something we need to discuss. I'd expect you by then, sweetie." Katherine answered, throwing her wide smile at me.
"Okay." I drag out.
"Dont stress about it, it's not a big of a deal." She assured me, she must have noticed the worry look on my face and the way my body tensed. She placed her hand above mine that was on the table beside my cereal bowl.
"Okay, Kat." I smiled back at her
The time passed by slowly, it's time for me to go home and I get reminded of Katherine, said we'll be discussing something. Curious, I packed my things into my bag and cleaned my desk before walking out of the office by a cab.
On the way home, I got so many texts from my bestfriends since I dont reply when they mentioned my name in the group text, it's not that I dont care, I got caught up in work and I know that's suck.
I read their text massages and decided to reply on the group text instead. There's only three of us in the group texts, they're my close friends, my bestfriends.
Petra : Sorry, babes. Caught up in work!
Thea : Girl's night tonight!!
Petra : Alright!!
Cora : Absolutely, hoes!
Thea : Let's wear something skimpy since we're single af.
Cora : Ohh dear Lord!! You're right, I'm going to wear the skimpiest dress I owned, the one that's backless and braless and has a deep neckline!
Petra : I'm not single. And Cora, sorry if I recognize you as a slut when you walked in the club instead of my bestfriend!
Cora : Go fuck yourself, bitch!
Petra : No thanks, I got Daryl!
Thea : LOL tell 'em!!
I laughed inwardly, didnt want the driver thinks that I'm crazy. We kept texting, they're typing dumb shit enough for me to laugh after another exhausted day at work.
Once I arrived, I paid the cab and walked inside the house. Jack and Kat already sat on the couch in the living room. They caught my presence, "Honey, come here." Katherine said, nodding her head towards the couch beside her with a smile.
I returned the smile before taking a seat on the comfortable couch, but the way Jack is looking at me not making me comfotable at all. He looks at me as if I've ruined his life.
What's up with him? What have I done? I know we never talk since four years ago, just little greetings here and there, so I cant have a problem with him right? My body tensed and I looked away from him to see Katherine.
"What's up, Kat?" I asked calmly, although I know I look like a
"Do you want to help me, Petra?" Kat asked, dont know where she's getting at.
But as a girl who will do anything for her savior, I answered, "Anything, Kat."
"You promise?" She asked for assuring, raising her eyebrows.
"Yeah, just say the word. I will never say no to you after all you have done. What is it?" I assured her, seeing her invisibly let out a sigh of relief. My respond sure is making her satisfied.
"You know that I'm getting older, honey. One thing I really want before I leave this world-" I cut her off, the thought of her leaving this world, leaving me, is making me heartbroken. I will have nobody and that if Paige stays coma. I dont know Jack that well and by the way he looks at me now, I think he dislikes me.
"Dont say things like that, Kat." My voice cracked as I cut her off, holding into her hand tight.
"I know honey, but do you want to make me happy before that?" She asked and I quickly nodded my head, not hesitating for this woman, who felt just like a mother to me. "I want to have a grandchild." She added.
"You want me to get married soon?" I asked, the thought of me marry Daryl playing in my mind. We will be a perfect couple and I'll make sure to give Kat grandchildren as many as she wishes.
"Yes baby, with Jack."
