Chapter 1.14 "The Days following Jin"

The Days Following Jin

Since Jin had been born, it had rained for weeks straight. Days of incredibly heavy rain and dark skies that made it nearly impossible to distinguish between night and day. The walls seemed to be closing in on them a little bit more each day that passed, and there was just no escape from the tension that permeated the air. The rain was bad enough, but with temperatures near or below zero, the damp cold just seemed to seep directly into their bones, leaving them shivering, no matter how many layers of clothes they put on.

To make matters worse, Ian had begun to insist that Maya take care of Jin so he could get back to work. So here she was, staring out the window at the unending miserable weather, while her son played on the floor behind her. When Jin was born, Maya had felt that by avoiding him as much as possible, he wouldn't learn to depend on her and therefore wouldn't miss her as much when she was gone. She was just trying to minimize any psychological trauma she may cause him by leaving. This rain had foiled her plans and delayed her departure far longer than she had anticipated.. If it didn't stop soon, she would just have to leave anyway and take her chances on the open water. Everyday she spent on the island was making it harder and harder to leave. She was discovering that her son was quite the little boy.  

Very intelligent, sweet and kind, but his artistic talent seemed to lean more towards music, unlike Maya and Ian. Of course he was too little to stand at an art easel, but perhaps when he got a little older.....

But that didn't matter did it? Because Maya was never going to see it happen.

Giving Ian a son had made him incredibly loving and "giving". When he wasn't working on his art, or playing with their son, his full attention was directed on Maya. She called upon her creative skills and very quickly came up with ways to help curb that loving energy. She had, for example, gotten quite good at giving him massages that would put him to sleep.

All that loving energy had produced another pregnancy about three weeks after giving birth to Jin. Then she had another pregnancy scare just two days ago. Luckily, both times the pregnancy never took. She just couldn't believe it. Even with using two kinds of protection, Ian was still able to get her pregnant. Did this man have, super sperm? So she kept him away from her as best as she possible could. Which was hard, considering every time she thought about what this man could do to her body in the bedroom, she became instantly aroused. Maya had to get out soon before things got even more complicated than they already were.

As luck would have it, the following evening, the rain just suddenly stopped and produced a clear bright sky full of stars. Ian had gone to bed early, after a long day with the sculpting wheel. Maya quickly gathered her belongings to prepare to leave. She tucked her son into bed, kissed him goodnight and walked out the door.

The minute that she stepped out the door, the enormity of what she was doing fully hit her and she burst into tears.

Her heart was aching with the thought of never seeing Ian or Jin again. So much so that she almost turned around and walked back inside. But staying was not going to make her happy either. So she pulled herself together, and quietly walked away into the dark night.
