Ryder is the definition of a real player. Playing with girls' hearts, keeping them for one night, and then leaving without an excuse. Every girl knows that by now, and yet they still try their luck with him.
He's been like this since high school. And yet he couldn't get Yomi to sleep with him. That irritated him. So he kept trying, with no luck.
In the first year of college, Yomi started dating a boy named Jake, but it was a toxic relationship. When they broke up, Yomi went out to party, to try and distract herself. Ryder was there too. Rumors spread fast, especially when you're popular. He already knew she broke up with Jake, and he definitely took it as an invitation.
In her state, Yomi finally gave in, and had a one night stand with him. They both agreed that it was a no strings attached night. They won't ever talk about it again. They didn't expect it to cause an accidental pregnancy.
Yomi is now in her fourth month. Her belly isn't that visible yet. She hasn't told Ryder, because she knew what would happen. Ryder is not a patient guy, and she'd seen him act impulsive over smaller things too.
But since it's getting harder to keep this a secret, she decided to leave college, and now she's looking for a job. But she doesn't know that the rumors have already started to spread. And they've reached Ryder too...
He's just parked his bike right outside the tall building. Taking off his helmet, he looks up at the window on the fifth floor, clenching his jaw. His heart is pounding. After he heard the rumors, he left, skipping his classes. He looks like he's ready to punch a hole in the wall.
He climbs up the stairs, up to the apartment on the fifth floor. Yomi's apartment. He hesitates. His jaw clenched, his fingers curling into fists, then uncurling, and then repeat. Then he finally knocks. Well... More like pounds on the door.
