Jim’s POV.I arrive at the airport, and the hardest thing that I ever had to do was to say goodbye to Anastasia, she seats in the car and I could see the tears that are gathering in her eyes.I wonder why she’s crying so much, I’m going to be back soon.The ride to the country was a smooth one, considering the fact that I boarded a first class plane.Getting down from the airport, I get a call from Mr James.“Hello Mr Jim, I’ve sent your car to come pick you up and drop you at the location. The meeting starts in ten minutes” he tells me, not even giving me a chance to talk.I see the car that was assigned for my comfort and I get into the car.And this is the perks of being a multi billionaire that no one really talks about, the amount of meetings that we have to attend, just to keep our businesses high and surviving.Initially, Jonathan is meant to be going for these meetings, but instead, I’m the one that has to go for them.In the first meeting, my fellow executives and I discuss o
Anastasia’s POV“Baby have you gotten to the hotel?” I ask Jim, who has been on the call with me while he was in the car.“Yeah, and the room looks good at least” he says.“Okay, switch it over to a video call then, I want to see your face” I tell Jim and he does so…We talk about everything and anything, till we decide we’ve been on a call for too long and Jim needed to rest.“Baby take care, you have a long day ahead of you, so get some rest” I say, trying to convince Jim that he should quit being a baby and go to bed.“Okay I will, I love you and I miss your lips on mine” he says.“I sincerely love you too” I say and wave him goodbye before I disconnect the call.I place my phone on the table and immediately, I fall asleep.The morning sun, peeps into the room, causing me to wake up.I try to stand, but I’m too weak to. I seat up and my head begins to hurt severely. I feel unusually warm, my body radiating heat. I’m surprised, as I haven’t been sick in a long time. I glance at the
“What are you doing here?” Kendra asks, her voice bitter and evident with hate.Her presence as unwelcome as the unknown illness that ails me. Her eyes hold a manic intensity that sends shivers down my spine.“Anastasia,” she says with an eerie smile. “It’s been so long. I’ve missed you.”I’m left frozen, my mind racing to comprehend this unsettling encounter. The woman before me is a disturbing presence, one who clearly carries a storm of her own.As Jessica stands at the door with that unsettling smile, my mind whirls with confusion and fear. Her presence in my home is an intrusion I never anticipated."Jessica," I manage to say, my voice quivering, "what are you doing here?"She steps further into the room, her gaze fixed on me with an intensity that sends shivers down my spine. "I told you, Anastasia, I've missed you. You've been such a big part of our lives."Kendra, sensing the tension in the room, places herself protectively by my side. "This isn't the time, Jessica," she says
“Kendra, what’s going on?” I say, my voice is sad, my eyes are teary“Just don’t worry about it, she can’t hurt you” Kendra says, trying to assure me.And just then, the microwave makes a ding, telling us that the food has warmed up.“Let’s forget all about that, and just have some food okay?” Kendra says to me“I’ve lost my appetite Kens, I can’t eat, I can’t Fucking function without feeling like something is always going down in my life. Where yet he’ll did I fucking go wrong. All I ever wanted was to be a happy person like every other person, Kendra that’s all I ever fucking wanted.. I want nothing more than that, I want nothing more than to be happy, so why am I not happy Kendra, what the fuck is wrong with me” I say, my voice is loud and the tears flow freely.I storm to my room, and shut the door behind me.I crawl into bed, closing my legs and just letting the tears fall freely from my face.“All I just want is to be happy” I say to myself.Jim’s POVThe day is already taxing w
Anastasia's POVMy heart pounds in my chest, fear gripping me like a vice. Jim's furious voice bellows through the phone, echoing in my ears. The words, “Are you fucking pregnant, Anastasia?” hang in the air, heavy with accusation. I can hardly believe what I'm hearing.And I know it’s true, but how did it happen?“Baby, please calm down,” I plead, my voice trembling, my eyes brimming with tears.But Jim's anger is uncontainable. He's like a wildfire, fierce and destructive. “Don't you fucking dare, Anastasia! Kill that thing!” he roars.My mind spins as I try to comprehend the hurricane of emotions that has suddenly engulfed me. The truth has finally surfaced, and I knew he was going to be like this. Because even though a part of me wanted to give him the benefit of doubt, I knew he would always be the scary Jim I feared.Jim's fury is like a tidal wave, crashing over me with force. The weight of his demands, the shock of his words, leaves me paralyzed.I never imagined this moment w
Jim's POVI should be in America by Saturday but the news Harry delivered to me has been too much to handle.I decide to move my flight to the next day and take charge of every situation that’s happening.I stare at the plane, that’s meant to be my ticket home.The flight is long and uncomfortable, the turbulence reflecting the storm raging inside him.I have just been away for a few days, hoping to come back and be welcomed in Anastasia’s arms.But it’s quite the opposite.The news of Anastasia's pregnancy looms over me, like an ominous cloud. It is not something that I ever planned for or wanted, and it gnaws at me like a persistent itch.The flight lands and I call Harry to come pick me up from the airport.I appreciate his silence as he carries my bag and places it into the car.“Take me to Anastasia’s” I say, breaking the thick silence.“But-“You don’t have a say Harry, take me there” I say, becoming furious.He silently drives me to the house and I appreciate the well deserved
Anastasia's POV“Kill the baby, or I’ll kill it anyway I can” are the last words Jim utters before he leaves the room, which leaves me to sink into my bed.My heart still races with the memory of Jim's words. They echo in my mind, haunting me like a relentless nightmare.“Why does he face to be like this, why was his voice cold and devoid of compassion. The words were like a dagger to my heart, and I can't shake off the shock and hurt they brought Kens, I don’t think I can do this Kendra, I can’t do this” I say, letting the tears flow freely down my face“You know better than to hold on to the memory Ana, you know what to do, don’t let your heart do the thinking, allow your mind to think for itself Ana” Kendra tells me, pulling me into a hug as she sits beside me.“I don’t want to exist anymore Kens, I don’t think I can do this… I don’t think I can handle this” I cry into Kendra’s hands.Kendra, always a supportive friend and sister, stays by my side throughout this ordeal. She's seen
The pain from today still lingers in my chest, and unlike me, I don’t see the need to eat, or to exist.Kendra continually knocks at my door and I don’t let her in, all I do is lay in bed, contemplating on my pain and how well I could handle the pain.And with my thoughts, heavy and loud, I drift into sleep, somewhere peaceful and calming.The rays of the sun shine brightly in my face, waking me up.I open my eyes slowly and all the memories of the previous day come flooding back. I shut my eyes, hoping to shut the world out, but it doesn’t work.I head downstairs to the kitchen, with the aim of making breakfast.I see Kendra cooking up some breakfast and I silently make a cup of hot chocolate.“Good morning Ana” Kendra greets“Hey Kens” I reply, the smile that always plasters my face is far gone“Are you good?” She asks“Yeah….. yeah I am”“You usually have early morning shifts, you’re not going to work today?”“Nah…. I’ll skip” I tell her.“Well I made breakfast, you can have some”
