Dalia’s Pov

“You are incompetent, clumsy, stupid, useless, I don’t even know why I slept with you in the first place!”

I woke up with a start, sweating bullets. “Just great Dalia. Now, you are beginning to have nightmares too.” I cussed, trying to get up from the bed. It seems my leg was stuck in the sheets. After a while of pulling, the last one landed me on the floor. I gasped in fear as I covered my baby bump with my palms. As if that would do anything.

It was then I realized something. I want this baby. If the drama at the abortion clinic didn’t confirm it enough. If the insult I received from Eros pertaining this child wasn’t confirming enough. I started rubbing gently as I got up from the floor like nothing happened.

“Dear baby, if your Dad was here, he would be the one rubbing and whispering sweet nothings to my ears.” I whispered to my self as I made my way to the sitting room. Then I saw something I shouldn’t.

There it was, a creature with no face and cucumber for eyes. It wa

    Dalia’s POVIt was hard to find a spot to park. My sigh turned into a smile when the spa came into full view.True to Emily's description, Rosewood Wellness Spa looked like it was one of the best in the city. Its sheer beauty already gave me peace before I came down from the car. Although it had the typical water fountain, where mineral water flowed from, people walking around in bathrobes, couples chatting with excitement and so on. Besides the beauty of a spa comes from how capable their workers hands were. If I am this impressed, it means there would be more waiting for me inside.I raised my eyebrows in amusement when I found some girls with probably their bff's standing excitedly at the entrance door. I looked at Emily who was smoothening down her cloth and putting on her Annie Season's sandals. I call it Any season sandals...I could never get used to the fact that Emily had other taste in clothes apart from West designs. If anything this was the place of attention.To say I was e

    Eros’ PovThe brightening of the day didn’t fill me with happiness as everyone would think. Instead, I was filled with dread. What would happen next? What would be on the news next?I pinched the bridge of my nose in frustration. Although I threatened her but she seemed so composed even after I did that. It threw me off balance and it made me think there is something she might do to bring my attention back to her.She won’t succeed.I swung my leg to the other side of the bed. It was a surprise how the week came by and now it is weekend already.Some part of me couldn’t help but think of what Dalia would be doing now. Although it’s been a week since I last saw her. I’ve been keeping tabs on her though as Jeremy never fails to give me new update about her. It seemed like he cared for her more than just an employee. He was like a big brother to her.I scoffed. I am sure she hasn’t told him anything about the pregnancy…The Jeremy I know won’t think twice before sending her home for mate

    Now, I have my own little secret. I won’t let anything happen to Dalia though. I am not spying on her because Eros asked me to. I am just protecting my friend. Like I always do.Dalia’s PovI rubbed my hands together as I can’t help but feel someone is watching my every move. I wouldn’t put it past Eros to have someone watch me from a distance. If I were the one, I would do so and this gives me an advantage over him.Maybe I should constantly place him on his toes so that he knows not to mess with me. The plan was to make Eros part of our lives. There was no secret plan and I was sorry for making Emily think that way.She left later that evening. After a bitter-truth conversation and a lot of fun after that, she promised to come visit during the week. I knew she had a lot on her mind. She didn’t even have the time to rehearse with me and I feel bad for having all that fun alone while she…My phone started beeping. I turned to look at the caller’s ID. It was Jeremy. My hands became sud

    Dalia's POV“Wow…” I couldn’t stop myself from breathing out.A shitty grin appears on his face. “I know right? I bought it to impress beautiful ladies like you.”I rolled my eyes in amusement. “That is one cheesy way to call a girl beautiful.”He scrunched his nose in disagreement. “I wouldn’t call it cheesy…fancy maybe.”So, he’s got a sense of humour too. That is admirable, I thought as he opens the car door and leans into to get the shirt. His jeans slipped a little lower and his shirt a little higher. I caught a glimpse of his creamy waist and gulped.It was sexy. My face turned red immediately…“Are you alright? You look red.” The man was already looking at me with a white shirt in his hands.I willed my red cheeks to return back to its normal temperature. “I am fine,” I grabbed the shirt from his hands. “Thanks.” I started to walk away. It was dangerous for a blushing lady to stay beside the cause of the blush.“wait!” He called again. “I need your number.”I raised an eyebrow.

    Dalia’s POV“And what would that be?” I asked but didn’t have the time to listen to his reply as my alarm indicated time for him to get lost. That was the limited time I could spend chit-chatting with him. Whatever his wish was, I really don’t care.Without saying anymore word, he stood up and left. That was the last time I saw him.“I did. You never told me that you knew my cousin...there is a lot of things I don’t know about you.” His voice went suddenly deeper. Of course, that is because I didn’t allow Emily do as she pleased. I didn’t agree to any of his subtle advances he sent across through Emily.There, I found my keys. “There is a lot I don’t know about you too.” Then I shrugged. “If we didn’t always meet on days where we were both busy,” I trailed off not wanting to continue the discussion. I already told Stephanie to wait before giving Dad his sleeping pills. I don’t want to waste anymore time.“Can we see? This time, I would tell you my wish.”I could hear the different emo

    Eros' POVOr maybe not.“Eros West. Fancy seeing you here.” Emily kept a smile on her face. I am sure it’s the type of smile I usually leave on my face to keep up with appearances. Then she pointed at her car. “I suppose this is your driver?”I nodded my head, putting both of my hands into my pockets.“And this is your driver?” She pointed at Sebastian who looked even more apologetic. This is because I knew her name.I nodded, brushing my nose with the tip of my left thumb. “And your point?”“I would like Bluetanic to be repaired and re-sprayed with immediate effect. I cannot overlook this negligence just because you are Eros West.” She claimed folding her hands over her chest. This time, a smirk appeared on her lips.She was toying with me. She probably knew about Dalia’s predicament and wanted to see what I would do. I mean, who wouldn’t be furious to hear about Dalia’s predicament. If anything she should be angry at me. I just wasn’t ready for a child. It was a mistake and I was pl

    Dalia’s PoV“Dad, I am pregnant.” I choked out.There was a long pause. I thought he didn’t hear but I knew he did because I felt his shoulders tense. “Dad? Did you hear me? I said I am pregnant..” I looked at his face.“I heard you the first time Dalia..” He trailed off, still not giving away his emotions. Just how hard has Dad practiced for this moment? The moment when I would tell him I am pregnant?I shifted a few metres away. “You hate me.” I just knew he did. How can I tell him such a news and he just sits there looking into nothing. But what was I expecting him to say? Absolutely nothing. Nothing needs to be said in a situation like this. He wasn’t like Emily who supported me throughout the first month of misery. She didn’t even tell Dad of the terrible news.I had no man beside me. He has refused to claim the baby.I felt thick hands gripping my shoulders tight. “Honey, you overthink things sometimes. Bring the young man to me, I will accept him.”I shrugged my shoulders hard,

    Dalia has messed up. I muttered to myself with a chuckle. I stood up from my bed to peep out of the window. There she was, running like her life depended on it.It was funny as I couldn’t stop the laughter from rumbling out of my insides. Then I frowned at how far she was getting this days. It is becoming increasingly hard to hide the pregnancy. No, scratch that. The moment she decided to keep the baby was when it became hard to hide it.Who are we fooling? Everyone will know Dalia is pregnant in no time. But it shouldn’t be anyone’s business if she is though. I shrugged in agreement.Few minutes later, I opened the door with my eyebrows furrowed. I didn’t want her to see how comfortable I was in this situation. Maybe I should have prepared a fake cast, bandaged my hands, legs and head, poured ketchup on it just for evidence.It would be hilarious to see Dalia’s expression after that.“Dee..” I started but she breezed past me, breathing hard. This is bad. I shouldn’t have let her come

    Dalia's POVThe days went by pretty fast. One afternoon, I was in the hospital, and the next, we were on our way to the West mansion. Eros didn't have to send a message like he usually did."You didn't leave the baby in the house, did you?" I asked Eros who looked better than he did a month ago. He barked out a laugh. "What? I already tucked her in."I sighed in relief. It happened sometimes because we were too preoccupied with each other. If Emily learns of this, she will take the baby from us permanently. I smiled at the thought.We were still in the first paragraph of the chapter. It was beautiful, just like I had always wanted. One time, I heard the maids discussing Betty. What she did when I wasn't around was nasty.Why would she seduce Eros? It was there that I learned that Eros had slept with her one drunken night. My heart sank at the discovery, but it was a long time ago. A long time, yet Eros hasn't said anything about it. Hold on a minute. I don't go about telling him abou

    He had received the divorce papers, but they weren't signed. Good.Eros jumped at the vibration of his phone. He hoped it was good news. Then he frowned when he saw Emily plastered across the screen. He picked it up immediately. She hasn't spoken to him in a long time. He knew the reason."Dalia got into an accident. I will send you the address." She hung up and Eros panicked. He tried the number again, but it went straight to voicemail. Then the message came in. She was in Spain! He didn't mind. He would meet her anywhere. All he wanted was for her and the baby to be fine.The maids watched with hands folded as he turned the house upside down while preparing for the journey.They no longer saw Bethany Woods because they overheard Eros rejecting her during a heated moment. He said he loved Dalia and she was his wife. Betty had left with anger. Now, she has lost Eros as a friend too.***********It was a drunken mistake. Nick had swerved right into an upcoming truck.

    The letters! Dalia mentally facepalmed. She should have kept it well. Away from Betty's hideous eyes. She thought she had them hidden.Eros' face was ashen in color and when he didn't say anything in reply, it occurred to Dalia that he already knew about it. Her heart sank deeper. She didn't think about telling him because it was nothing. Maybe when they went to the office the next-day, she would have told him about Nick. Only if he asked!A loud knock on the door pulled Dalia out of her thoughts. Eros sighed, making his way upstairs. "They are here again. Increasing by the minute all because of my foolish wife."'he called me his wife' Dalia realized with sadness. It was at that moment she knew that she fucked up. Now she has Eros in a tight spot. He may not look like it but Eros was enraged. It's just that he just apologized to her yesterday so it seemed like he was tired instead."I am sorry!" Dalia cried out. She didn't know what to say that would soothe him.Eros paused on the se

    Dalia paced the room up and down. She was restless and could not place her butt somewhere. "Pick up, Emily!" She gritted out. How did it happen? Nick only grabbed her because she was about to leave! They were not doing anything like whosoever that took the picture was suggesting!Emily picked up at the third ring. "What the hell? Dalia!""Emily! What should I do? I know everyone has seen the picture. I don't think Eros should see it.""Eros should never see it. Go and see for yourself and make sure he doesn't have his phone around him."Dalia nodded, opening her door. She was down the stairs in a flash. "What should I do if he has already seen the picture?""I don't know. You love him, I don't." Emily's downcast voice dampened Dalia's spirit.Dalia could imagine her friend shrugging in helplessness. "I swear, it was a mistake!" She was still explaining to her dearest friend when she saw Eros with his phone. He wasn't looking at it but beyond it. He was looking at her. He knew about th

    Dalia's POv.The next morning…I arrived just in time to see Tracy drop another letter on my desk. What is it this time around?! The letters were getting frequent! I am not in the mood for his pranks and silly antiques.I dismissed her quickly, snatching up the letter.I tore it open expecting to find cheesy lines, but I didn't see any."Come to the park by 7:00 p.m.; I have a surprise for you." Why would Eros ask me to come to the pack when he snubbed me on his way to work this morning. What surprise does he have for me? I folded the piece of paper in anger, dumping it into the trash bin.Tracy walked in with a cup of coffee. Just what I needed for my already puffy eyes. "Not in the mood? I have got just the right thing for you." She subtly eyed the dark shades sitting on my nose.I have nothing to say to her.I left work early because, I mean, who can stop me from leaving whenever I want to? Not even Eros, because I am pissed at him.The park was almost empty. It was evening, and

    Dalia's POVShe was always right.My dear Emily.Why is she friends with someone as daft as me? She told me to confront Eros about Betty because she was biting more than she could chew. I have decided to take the bull by the horn today.I need to hear from his mouth whether he loves her or not. If he says he loves her, I will move out of the way, give birth to my baby, and divorce him. The baby won't have to live his life thinking he was born out of wedlock. When it comes to custody of the child, I won't allow him to get away with his misdeeds.The drive home was quiet as usual as I mused over the things Emily told me that afternoon. She expressed her anger for Betty and wished she met the bitch one more time. Her words, not mine.I entered the house to see Eros in aprons. He greeted me with a small smile, which made me confused. He has never smiled like this at me. The last time I saw him smile, only in a bigger version, was with Betty! My mood was already sour and damp."Your food m

    Dalia's pOV. I found Emily later that afternoon slurping down her lunch. She had consumed two bowls already. It was noodles and boiled egg. Rosalind's Diner was an old Korean diner that specializes in homemade noodles. I almost snorted when she raised her messy face. A noodle got stuck at the side of her chin. Today she was putting on a blue belly blouse that revealed her smooth arms and palazzo jeans. From where I stood, I could see her belly button and her shaved armpit when she drank from the plate. "Eating lunch without me." Emily paused only to look at me before going back to her meal. "That's why I suggested this place." She said with mouth full. She looked wicked whenever she did that. "And I foolishly agreed with you." I turned to the woman sitting behind the counter. "A bowl of noodles and fried egg. Add extra spring onions, and chili." At the look of her confused face, I pointed at my baby bump. A look of realization clouded the form
