Love by Luck (Short stories)

My pregnant wife 9

Gloria was leaving her apartment as her snacks were finished and she needed more when Shawn came out of his apartment.

"Oh, you are also going out?" He acted innocent while Gloria wondered how he knows when she is leaving.

She ignored him and entered in the lift while Shawn followed her inside the lift.

"I am also going to the mart. Let's go together." He smiled while Gloria completely ignored him who was too shameless to notice her irritation.

He followed her everywhere in the park and the nearby cafe while acting like he didn't know her.

Gloria was irritated knowing that he was following her and therefore she returned to her apartment earlier.

As she was unlocking the door, Shawn passed near her waving his hand as they were close friends.

Gloria only glared at him as he entered his apartment.

.................

The next morning as she was making breakfast for her someone rang the bell. She opened the door and found Shawn standing outside.

"What do you want?" She looked irritated while Shawn smiled and showed her an empty cup.

"Can I get some sugar? I will return it as soon as possible."

Gloria shut the door and before she could walk away Shawn put his finger on the doorbell and forgot to remove it.

Gloria angrily opened the door and glared at him.

"I really need some sugar. Can you please give me some, I will...."

Gloria snatched the cup and filled it with sugar. She gave it back to him and before he could say anything she shut the door again.

She took her breakfast and finally was able to eat it in peace.

..................

Shawn put the cup on the shelf and yawned. He stood there knowing that Gloria won't go anywhere now so he decided to take some sleep.

He slept for few hours and then woke up at noon and took a bath.

Few minutes later he was again standing outside the door of Gloria's apartment with same cup of sugar.

Gloria opened the door with a frown.

"How are you?" He asked her with a smile while Gloria was about to shut the door again when he quickly stopped her.

"I came to give back your sugar. Thanks for helping me and...."Gloria took the cup and shut the door on his face again.

"What's with her and shutting the door on my face? She is not even that pretty." He pouted and turned towards his apartment.

.................

Mr Mendes was listening to Shawn who was giving him the daily report of how he tried to be good with Gloria.

"She is still angry with me." He sighed and laid on the bed.

"Of course she will be." Mr Mendes smiled."I will talk to you later."

Shawn cut the call and looked at the screen of the laptop which was showing the door of Gloria's apartment.

A delivery guy was standing outside her apartment and he quickly became alert. He wore his shirt and came out of his apartment while keeping an eye on the guy.

Gloria opened the door and took her order. Before going back her eyes met with Shawn who quickly passed a smile to her. She frowned and entered inside.
