“ What did you just say?” Matthew was cold. The pool of sweat that scorched his skin previously, now made him drenched and shivering in the cold.Shockingly, he drew back from Sophia, glancing at her in awe.Sophia was weak. Matthew almost pulled her hands off her body. She never wanted to deliver the news that way to him but he pushed her.Sophia shivered. Every day, Matthew is becoming a different version of a murderous vamp. She managed to glance at him as he stood panting like a wild beast. He has not recovered from the shocking news.“ What did you say, Sophia? “ He asked, very cold this time around.“ I am carrying your child. The doctor confirmed me pregnant yesterday “ Sophia answered thinking he would pamper her because he was carrying his child.“ How old is the baby in your womb?” His cold voice shivered as he asked and instantly felt something entering his body like an imp or something.All along, Sophia sat down sobbing profusely. She was waiting for Matthew to crawl
Sophia lay lifeless on the floor, shut completely in darkness. She had fainted earlier when Matthew hit her on the wrong part.Suddenly, she jerked to something splashing on her body like water and she faintly opened her eyes.In an attempt to fully comprehend what was going on, her eyes caught Matthew smoking and puffing out black smoke from his mouth and nostrils into the air. Narrowing her eyes around, she found out that she was with Matthew alone in the bathroom. With hands clenched on her stomach, she coaxed and pressed her stomach downward. The fear of losing the child growing in her womb cannot be assuaged.“ My child, My baby” her voice shivered, her hands running around her stomach in search of her unborn child.Matthew gave her one glance and sipped the red wine in his hands. He was sitting by the side of the bathtub, puffing out black smoke off his cigarette.He scoffed, gently putting the ash in his half-consumed cigarette into the ashtray.He has made up his mind to k
“ I'm sorry Matthew. I…I never meant to do this” Sophia’s lips shivered as she stood before Matthew whose eyes were blood red.Matthew, in his bare chest and soaked short jeans dripping out water from the bathtub, Walked up to Sophia.“ You are dead meat Sophia “ His murderous lips parted –like he needed her blood to satisfy him.“ Help! Somebody! “ She screamed, holding the key firmly in her hands.While she was shivering by the bedside, Matthew glared at her Like a beast waiting to devour its prey.He held her neck first and gave her another blow on the face and blood momentarily coated Sophia’s left eye.“ Help!” She cried weakly and landed on the bed, her face buried in the white quilt on the bed.Blood stains messed the quilt as Sophia kept bleeding from her head, and nose and now, her left eye was covered with blood.Just as Matthew would pull her up, he punched her stomach, intentionally trying to kill the bastard in Sophia’s womb.Sophia was weak but her hands did not leave
Morning golden glint crept on the horizon bringing in the symphony of a harmonious blend of blue, white, and black hues in Atlanta Georgia.Simon stood on the balcony that morning, glaring at the beautiful colorful sky.He held his phone hand, calling Sophia’s phone but it was not connecting. For almost a month now, he hasn't heard from his daughter. Three days ago Nanny told him Sophia was doing fine and that she didn't have a phone.Yesterday, Joana had returned from Shawn’s place looking fresher, and beautiful and had put on weight in the right places.What surprised him the most was the expensive car Shawn got for Joana and the gifts that accompanied her home. Shawn single-handedly transformed his niece into something else.To be frank, he regretted everything now and even if Shawn would be his best Son-in-law, yet Simon would never forgive himself for destroying the happiness his daughter once built. He could Imagine how things would blossom when his niece finally settled with S
“ Esung, are you sure about this?” Simon asked Nanny.The sore expression on his face momentarily varnished as he could not contain the good news. “ Yes, Mr. Simon, the doctor, confirmed that in my presence “ Nanny chuckled but suddenly remembered the advice of the doctor that came with the good news, and her face darkened.Matthew almost caused Sophia to lose the pregnancy. According to the doctor, if Sophia must carry the child to the full team, she must stay away from unhealthy people and environments for her mental health.“ Oh my goodness, I can't believe this! I'm going to be a grandfather soon” Simon stood up in excitement. This is the best news ever. However, with all the excitement and the joyful laughter that filled the living room, Joana was still hooked on her romantic conversation with her lover.When the interruption from the living room became unbearable for Joana and her lover on the phone, she retired to the room to continue her long conversation with Shawn. “ I
Joana has decided to confront Matthew today in his office. Yesterday, Shawn warned her sternly not to confront Matthew saying he was going to handle the issue himself.However, Joana is adamant. Today, the scumbag, Matthew Callaghan would know the stuff she was made of.The morning came quickly as Joana expected. Last night, she and Shawn spoke for about six hours and had woken up this morning just to find out that they never hung on to each other. A smile escaped her lips as she saw calls still displaying on her screen. “ Shawn” She called but there was no response. She could only hear Shawn snoring faintly from the background. Glancing, at the time, it was 6: 56 am. “ My hero must be very tired from the work in the office, “ She said while holding the phone.“ I can't wait to support you, build with you, and stand by your side, my darling husband. Having you as my husband is like having a never-ending supply of tranquility, love, and security. You are my rock, my life, a
“ What are you doing here, Joana? Don't tell me you came here all because of Sophia” Matthew continued, glaring at Joana from head downwards.The way Matthew was sounding made Joana believe he was indeed a beast and nothing more. She locked the door of her car before taking some steps towards Matthew who was stunned by her sudden transformation.“ I was in your house the other time, Matthew. Your men refused me coming in, why?” Joana tried to be calm. Her exterior was though steel, evoking a sense of confidence and bravery. Matthew giggled. He couldn't still believe Joana drove in the expensive Lexus that cost a fortune. Right now, Matthew was feeling intermediate by her exterior. “ You know what Joana, can we go inside my office and talk? I wouldn't want to keep a beautiful woman like you standing outside the scorching sun” He giggled, giving Joana that look that suggests lust and respect. “ It's fine Matthew,” Joana snapped.Matthew chatted about business and life in his sonoro
Joana drove slowly while on the road. Her neck still hurts from Matthew's grip and she just wanted to get some drugs to relieve the pain.She wondered how much of this hurt Sophia had to swallow as her daily pill.Lost in thought, something flashed through her mind. Yes, something that she’d never thought about. Matthew mentioned some things to her earlier but she can't recall any of them again. She tried to remember Matthew, ’s words but it seemed everything had been erased from her memory. Her head was scorching inside.While on the steering with one hand, she grabbed the water can from the other seat and gulped everything in anger.Immediately, she heard her phone ringing in her bag. With eyes focused on the road, she groped for her phone in her bag and found it. Glancing at the caller, it was Shawn.“ Baby, just give a few minutes I will call you soon” her calm voice struck and she hung up without allowing Shawn to speak.After she hung up, Shawn called again but Joana ignored t
