Third POVElma got to the living room with a smile on her face. She just feel so happy this morning and she has a strong belief that today is going to be a lot more happier."Good morning mum" she greeted Nina."Hmm" Nina hummed, putting her magazine aside. "Someone look very happy this morning. Elma laughed a bit. She sat on the opposite couch."Mind sharing?" Nina asked smiling."Well mum, let's just say I woke up in the good side of the bed." Elma said blushing."Oh really? That's good."Babe and Vikky walked in, they had a weird angry look on their faces when they saw Elma."Good morning mum" they both said to Nina. "Good morning girls. Ready for school already?""Yes mum. What about the stuff i asked for?" Babe asked.Nina furrowed her brows to remember what Babe asked of her "Oh! Tomorrow sweetie. Okay?""Fine" she said angrily and sat close to Nina. Vikky was seated on another couch not too far from Nina but a bit far from Elma."Elma dear aren't you going to work today?" Nina
Elma's POVMum and I went to many places in Terrison. Like the spa, where we got a massage and also pedicure and manicure. We also went to a salon. I got my hair done in a nice style. Mum is so fun to be with. We had a lot of talks, mostly about her magazine and then boys. About boys, I mean her old days with Chief.Out of my curiosity, I decided to ask how is it that she could keep Chief till this time. Not that they are very old but sometimes couples break away but Mum and Chief love seem to be growing stronger and stronger everyday."Well honey, I believe it just fate that has kept us together." She said.I nodded but still not convinced. Just fate?"I believe that, if you marry the right person for you, nothing will separate you both rather you will be growing stronger everyday. I think that's the fact for Chief and I."I smiled at her. This could be true though. The right person."You know our marriage is just like yours" I looked at her in surprise."Really?""Yes." She said. "W
Jones' POVWhat exactly am I scared of? The feelings she make me feel are just void of my control.I look at my watch, it's pasted two in the morning. I decided to get some sleep. I came out of my office and I met her sleeping. She was cuddling the pillow and her legs were wrapped up to it too. I moved closer and covered her with the sheets. She was sleeping like a cute little baby, her lips parted a bit and I could hear little sound of snores, making me smile.What am I doing? I crave for her but still I am pushing her away. What's up Jones? Why are you scared? What exactly are you scared of?I sighed softly as I stood there watching the sleeping angel in front of me.Am scared of the feelings. Am scared of hurting her. I can't stand to see her hurt, it will kill me. Am not yet done dealing with Ruby, I can see a lot of problems, i really don't want to face, coming. Ruby is capable of doing something terrible.My life has been sabotaged by two women. Ruby who has impacted in me so de
Elma's POV"Thank you doctor" He nodded and walked out of the room. My hand went to my belly. Gosh this didn't cross my mind. Am carrying Jones' baby. It's unexpected and at the same time very exciting. Should I call him now or...."Oh my dearest daughter in law" I was interrupted from my thoughts by mum's voice. I looked up and I saw her and Felicia walking in."Hey" I said with a smile."Oh honey" Mum kissed my cheeks and Felicia sat by the side of my bed. "Am so happy. Gosh You are pregnant!" she said excitedlyI smiled. "Yes""Wow. This is such a good news Elma" Felicia said happily. How do you feel now? Is the baby kicking already?" She asked looking at my bellyI laughed holding my belly."Silly girl. The baby is still a foetus. It hasn't grown yet. I haven't you learnt anything?" Mum said rolling her eyes playfully at Felicia making me giggle."Ignore her dear. Oh am so excited. Finally Chief and I will get to see our grandkid before we pass on. Thank you very much dear" she s
Jones' POV"Aren't you happy sweetie" Mum spoke up, snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked at her and then everyone. They were all staring at me, wondering why I am happy or saying anything. I looked at Elma who also was looking at me in a confused way."Jones...?" She called calmly."Um.... I am tired guys. I need to rest" I left before anybody could say anything. I made my way to my room and closed the door. I began pacing the room. My fingers ran through my hair in frustration.Of course am happy about the news but it has also made things worst. If Ruby..... No, Once Ruby finds out cause she will surely do, I don't know what she will do. Oh god I really need to think straight. I need to think straight.I sat on the bed and put my head on my hands as countless things ran through my head. Right now am confused. Very confused. What am i going to do? I love Elma so freaking much. I don't want anything to happen to her. Now that she is carrying my baby, she is at super risk.I was sti
Elma's POVI have missed my office so much. It's been a while. Mum made me stay at for weeks without going to work. I had to bring up some excuse before she allowed me come to work today. My colleagues were so happy to see me. Especially Eric. He has been handling some of my works for me and he sometimes call to check up on me.Pregnancy is good though. It's more like the best thing to ever happen to a woman. But boy It's also tiring. Can't believe I have eight more months to go, geez that's too long. The worst is the weird feelings it's causing me. I eat a lot, even eat things I don't use to eat. Sometimes I throw up and I usually feel a bit sick. All these pregnancy signs are freaking messed up.Mum on the other hand, always give me one local drink every morning. You should have a taste of it, believe me it's horrible. Gosh! The color alone make me want to throw up. Don't forget the smell, ew!. I wonder where mum got it from. According to her, her mother gave it to her when she was
Babe was very surprised to see Ruby in her school and alone, cause the last time she came, she was with Jones.Jones and Ruby visits her sometimes in school and they also visit Vikky too but Babe was Ruby's favorite. Maybe because she is tough and feisty and most especially has a bitchy nature. Ruby see Babe as the same version of her, quite evil and quite bitchy. She is impressed on the way Babe maintain her status in school, the way she talks and the name she made for herself in school. Ruby love the bitch in Babe.Ruby knew that Babe hates Elma with passion by the way she talk ill about her and the fact that her brother needs someone more better.Babe love Ruby too. She sees Ruby as a role model and will really like to be exactly like her when she become an adult.She has Ruby in all her social media accounts and also follow her in all too.

Please....Please....Please....Please....not my baby. God I don't want to lose this baby please, help.My eyes were slowly losing light as I am being driven into the ward.

I could only hear my heart beating fast out the fear of losing my baby.They were driving me towards the ward, I could feel myself moving but am losing consciousness slowly."Jones" I mumbled.I wanted him here, I want him to assure me that our baby is fine. I want him to tell me it's going to be okay. I want him to hold my hand and tell me.God I don't want to lose my baby please. Tears came down from my eyes. I could feel the pain and the blood on my thighs. It's a terrible feeling.Please my baby..... Save my baby please.......Darkness dominated me.Third POVBabe sat on her seat thinking about what she did. Questions emerging.'Has she drank it by now? Is it working already? What if it didn't work? Did I do the right thing?'Many question

All I see is a husband stealer who doesn't want to accept the thing called friend zone.I am standing here in this huge hall filled with exercise equipment and all. Lisa, Laura and Edwin are looking at me. They are surprised to see me, I am sure. Edwin most especially. He has a lot of things in eyes, one of them is fear.

MARIAIt's almost eight pm and I am in my room putting my stuffs inside my box as tears roll down my eyes. I wipe it off getting angry at how uncontrollable my tears can be. My things are scattered on the floor and I am just packing them up randomly.I am done with this madness. I can't continue putting up with this. First thing tomorrow morning I am out. This is last straw. I hate Edwin so much.God I love him but I hate that I love him.He is a liar, a cheat, a freaking man whore and a terrible person. He doesn't love me. He was making a fool out of me when he told me he love me and I was stupid enough to believe him.Stupid again!I sit on my bed feeling exhausted. This is not go for my baby. It's all Edwin's fault. He is the devil in my life! He couldn't even wait longer before coming to my life but had to come right when I turned eighteen.Right at the beginning of my adulthood.He is the actual devil.The image of those pictures came to my head again. I have deleted it but it is
EDWINMaria and I are walking into the hospital. More like running. She is pregnant but seems to be faster than me. Well it's her best friend we are talking about.More like only friend.She was panicking all through our way here. I guess her friend isn't just a friend to her.Perfect timing for this occurrence. It just had to happen right when I was confessing my feelings. I can't even believe I actually did that.We enter the VIP room. Edward must be the one that made them put her here. Maria gasp the minute we see Beth. She is unconscious on the bed with oxygen pipe covering her nose and mouth. She is also covered with bandages on her arm mostly and other places. Maria moves closer to her touching her friend and crying softly. Seeing her like this is so upsetting.Edward is standing a bit away with folded hands. You could see the pain in his eyes seeing his girl in this critical condition. I wonder what I'll do if it was Maria in this condition.I won't be still as Edward is right
THIRD POVBeth is busy with her phone in class. Others are chatting with one another, some are making noise and some are laughing. They seem to be waiting for their professor.Beth smiles at her chat with her new boyfriend. They have been dating for a week now and she has never been so damn happy.Edward is a very sweet guy and a wonderful lover. God she can't wait to get out of class and go see him. She is so grateful it is Friday. They both have plans for the weekend. She just can't wait to be in his arms."Beth" a girl call claiming Beth's attention. The girl is familiar but they don't talk much. "Yeah?""Someone wants to see you outside" the girl say. Beth furrow her brows at her "Who?"The girl shrug. "She didn't say her name" "She?""Yeah. She said it's kinda urgent." The girl say and walk away.Beth is still confused. Who could that be? Could it be Maria? If it's Maria, she would have entered the class. Maria knows her class, she wouldn't send someone to call me. Beth thought.
MARIAI am seated on the beautiful white chair at the balcony. My eyes is blessed with the beautiful view Sun City has to offer. You could see a lot from here. The cool breeze caressed my skin making me feel so refreshed. Sighing, i place my hand on my belly."I am sorry Maria. For everything"His words sings again in my head for the millionth time. It's been twenty four hours since he said that to me and trust me when I say, I am still intrigued by every word that came out of his lips. It felt like a dream. I was like, is he really saying this? Who are you and what have you done with Edwin?Sighing, I rub my belly as a smile forms on my face. He called me baby. I don't know why that made me so excited. Gosh can I be any more stupid? I had to force myself to walk away from him because I know if I had stayed longer, I will surely hug him. That means I am being so easy for him.Of course I forgive him. But he has to suffer a little. He has to learn how to value women and not treat them

I am taking it to my room" Edward furrows his brows at her "Why?""Well she doesn't want to stay in the same room with him anymore."Edward sighs.

"You brother is a very terrible person.
MARIAI run out of the resort and I find myself in the garden. My face is filled with tears. My heart is breaking into a million pieces. The cold wind of the night hit my body but I careless about catching a cold. I am aware they are having an affair but I didn't expect to see them like that. In that position.Sniffling, I sit on the small decorated bench beside the flowers. The sight was so upsetting. He had to be in her freaking room, standing close to her like that and she was wearing that seductive thing and had her hands all over him. He was so focused on her like she was the only interesting thing in the world. All that gave me a sharp pain in my heart.God why is this bothering me so much? I do know they are having an affair. Why does it hurt so much?He doesn't care about how I feel. Hell he never cared about how I feel. Of course he did that just to hurt me. He enjoys doing that. I shouldn't let him get to me like this. I am only letting myself get hurt by him. He is a total
